US Attorney General Loretta Lynch has recused herself from deciding whether Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton will be charged in the classified email investigation, following outrage over the AG's private Monday meeting with Bill Clinton, the justice department announced Friday morning.
The announcement comes in the wake of accusations that the Obama appointee has a conflict of interest in the case, after she met with the former president on her government plane while on the tarmac of Phoenix, Arizona's Sky Harbor Airport on Monday.
Lynch will discuss the decision during an interview on Friday morning at the Aspen Ideas Festival, an anonymous DOJ official said.
Normally, the AG and other DOJ officials would have the final say in bringing charges in an investigation, but Mondays 30 minute meeting is thought to have led to the change in protocol.
Although Lynch stressed the two did not discuss official business, she was accused of impropriety and and urged to recuse herself.

Certainly looks like someone following his movements quite closely - heheh all your files are belong to us!
This has the feeling of things going worse and worse for the clintons - can't bring myself to believe it.
My prediction for the race sometime in August was it would be Trump against Warren. I've still got a chance.
Maybe FBI tipped off reporter just a thought!!!! FBI has this BITCH dead to rights and they are being hand strung by administration!!!
WOW those are some UGLY LEGS!!!! She NEEDS pant suits!!!!
Trump’s got three tweets pounding Hillary/the Clintons over this dubious meet up. He hits Hillary for bad judgement and suggests she demanded Bill meet with Lynch. He notes we were never supposed to know about the meeting, and concludes by stating it was no coincidence; the fix is in:

I suspect this is why Wampum Warren has been given Ugly Face Time. They got their vaginal candidate regardless
YEP
FBI
Frderal Bureau of Ineptitude
I agree. She can recuse herself, but that doesn't mean that she has to appoint the most experienced and brightest prosecutor to the case. She'll probably find some kid fresh out of law school and give him/her the job to prosecute Hillary and the Clinton Crime Family.
Just like the OJ Simpson trial. You get some incompetent prosecutors up against a dream team of lawyers and the result is all predictable.
I hope so!
Wonder if Bubba will give an interview to the press
They ought to demand one
Passive aggressive behaviour from the FBI would really suck if you the target.
Lynch on TV now giving well rehearsed answer. Crowd seems to think its all a joke! Lies, lies, and more damn lies!!!!!!!!
Possibly—but why did the FBI forbid photos of the meeting?
The Clinton and Obama appointee.
It's all one big happy crime family.
Clinton's Dixie Mafia merged with the Chicago Crime Machine when Obama took office.
The most powerful organization in the USA which is now a branch of the Muslim Brotherhood with the "man behind the curtain" being the conjoined twins Huma and ValJar.
I too hope Trump keeps on pounding the Clintons. Also, neglected to mention, Trump didn’t merely say Hillary has bad judgment. Trump said he agrees with Bernie Sanders, who said Hillary has bad judgment. That really twisted the knife. ;)
There are many instances of situations that may appear under nominal control, yet flip to chaos in a wink. 6/28/1914 is a famous case, yet there are countless others, hence "Cry 'Havoc!', and let slip the dogs of war".
The point being, BHO and the entire DC mandarin class has been desperately trying to maintain the status quo. Trump as we know has upset that equation. Now, there is a real & present danger that BHO's post-presidential career could be impacted by the Hillary capers.
It's clear - at least to me - that BHO, Jarret, Lynch, et al planned on having LL meet with Bill in order for Lynch to be able to recuse herself. This is nothing more than a firewall to begin protecting themselves from the fall out of Hillary going down. In other words, the CIA/NSA intelligence community has won.
Once a break occurs in the battle lines, that's when the route/massacres begin. (It's why it's important to try & have an orderly retreat.) It may seem unlikely, impossible even, at this point that justice may win out (ie Hillary convicted), but history has shown that events can turn on a dime.
BHO needs/wants to have a respectable career when Trump is president. This is his team's way of preparing for a smooth exit.
They were ordered to make sure no photos were taken!!!! So an anonymous tip!!!! FBI WILL leak their report to DOJ nothing may be done to HELLARY however the leaks WILL do the damage there WILL be a DEEP THROAT in this case mark my words!!!! SS, CIA, FBI can’t stand this bitch!!!
Agree—an ‘anonymous tip,’ sounds likeliest.
