FBI May "Leak" Clinton Email Probe If DOJ Blocking Continues
ZeroHedge.com ^ | 23 April 2016 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 04/23/2016 1:30:53 PM PDT by Rockitz

The feud between the FBI and the Department of Justice over whether or not to proceed with charges against Hillary Clinton in the ongoing email investigation just took an unexpected turn.

Recall that one month ago, we found out that on one hand, the FBI is seemingly hell-bent on chasing down every possibly angle involving Hillary's email abuse, when we reported that one hundred forty-seven FBI agents have been deployed to chase down clues and leads and that the FBI has accelerated the investigation because officials want to avoid the possibility of announcing any action too close to the election. A former Clinton staffer is also cooperating with that investigation, and it’s believed Clinton herself will be questioned.

The flipside has been the Department of Justice which has been stonewalling the probe every step of the way. It hasn't been alone in its unwillingness to pursue Hillary: on April 1, the state department announced that it is suspending its probe of "top secret" Clinton emails.

The divergence of these two paths, one which wants to get to the bottom of Hillary's email probe and the other which is dead set on blocking it, has led online betting markets such as PredictIt to put the the odds of federal charges being filed against Hillary at record lows.

Which, paradoxically, could be bad news for Hillary.

On Friday, US Senator Chuck Grassley who chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee, and who has pushed for additional scrutiny of Clinton’s email use during her tenure as secretary of state, dropped a dramatic "hint" during a breakfast meeting with the Des Moines A.M. Rotary club when he suggested that the FBI "might leak", hypothetically-speaking of course, reports of its investigation into presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server as secretary of state.

147 FBI agents are investigating this. That just boggles the mind.

I don't think that many were used to take down the mafia.

This has to be about a lot more than emails.

I am surprised by how many democRATs don’t care about Hillarys honesty.

Just upload it to some unsecure server in someone’s bathroom and let some hacker intern “accidently” find it.

Remember,boys and girls...in early 1998 folks like us were *convinced* that BillyBob was hours away from resigning the Presidency.And then,a few months later,we were *convinced* that BillyBob would be removed from office by the United States Senate.

Nothing good will come of this...nothing good for the nation at least.

Remember,you heard it here first!

“Remember,you heard it here first!”

Pessimists are never disappointed, and your pessimism may be entirely correct, but you understand why people are at least ‘hoping’ that the right thing happens.

Of course I can.But beliefs like this lead to complacency...which would lead to BillyBob being The First Rapist.

That’s the Obama administration and that is fascism in
classic form. They actually make socialist Sanders look good
for a lying fink democrat.

Good article thanks for posting.

I’ve been saying for months now that if Justice department fails to indict on credible evidence that Hillary broke the law that FBI leaks will ultimately bring down her campaign.

Honorable behavior from the entity that burned down a church KNOWN to be crowded with kids ON TELEVISION..?

The outfit that was going to SET-UP for bombing charges a HERO it KNEW was completely innocent, all for purely political reasons..?

I’LL HAVE TO SEE THIS..!

The right approach, IMHO, is to be hopeful and optimistic, but also motivated and not complacent. It's a tough balance, and if people are too pessimistic is de-motivates.

The only thing the FBI does is what Obama tells them. He owns the FBI body and soul.

Why should RATS care about honesty? Look at the enigma that they put in the WH.
