The FBI refused to cooperate Monday with a court-ordered inquiry into former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s email server, telling the State Department that they won’t even confirm they are investigating the matter themselves, much less willing to tell the rest of the government what’s going on.
Judge Emmet G. Sullivan had ordered the State Department to talk with the FBI and see what sort of information could be recovered from Mrs. Clinton’s email server, which her lawyer has said she turned over to the Justice Department over the summer.
The FBI’s refusal, however, leaves things muddled.
“At this time, consistent with long-standing Department of Justice and FBI policy, we can neither confirm nor deny the existence of any ongoing investigation, nor are we in a position to provide additional information at this time,” FBI General Counsel James A. Baker wrote in a letter dated Monday — a week after the deadline the Justice Department had set for the FBI to reply.

Oh of course. In about 75 years.
My question is this. Is that judge overseeing the stay of Obama’s immigration policy going to haul his ass into court for contempt?
Not likely. The US Marshals are under the Dept of Justice, which is run by Obama’s sycophant.
What would you expect? Remember Hillary and all those FBI files?
Yeah, WHO CARES about that whole MAGNA CARTA thing, right?
Let’s give Rule by Men a whirl, sure, no problem...
Soon I wager Trump will be ready with his Pen And Phone.
Seriously, what are we witnessing?
are the alphabet networks reporting on this treason?
or is that it for the republic?
I’d ask where are the repubs, but why?
We live in a decadent society.

Oy vey. After ten solid Google search minutes to find out It would take a search warrant to ask if this guy is related to or the son of James A Baker, Bush’s Sec State
And it doesn’t matter which bush they share staff like Jen plans to. Do they share staff w the Clinton’s? Is what I want to know
Of course they do. Like to see proof
What are we witnessing? Bureaucratic feudalism. A government so large and entrenched that no real oversight is taking place. Each agency is its own feudal duchy, nominally answerable to the Sovereign but really answerable to no one. And each bureaucratic duchy has it own army to back it up.
The judge ordered the State Dept. to cooperate with the FBI not the other way around. It’s standard for the FBI to refuse to say if they have an investigation going into any given matter.
OMG.

Not looking good.
The Washington Times website is like a virus - the worst of any online American newspaper.
Remember back when Hillary took those ‘FBI files’, claimed she didn’t have them, then later they were found on her nightstand ?
Maybe the reason the FBI won’t go after Hillary is that those FBI FILES were the ‘goods’ on FBI agents and management. That is why they were referred to as FBI files.
That was my first question, reading the abstract. Who’s not cooperating w whom? And is this standard procedure?
Well, as Rush said today, these people defy common sense and representation, soich, these Washington people, now, as opposed to in former times, of course we’re all running around suspicious and trying to make sense of their behaviors. They are in business to help us. Not to destroy us We have to try to figure it out.
We really are not sheep as voters. Maybe as religious people, some of pus, but NOT as voters
Some of us, autocorrect
