Lynch to Remove Herself From Decision Over Clinton Emails, Official Says

New York Times ^ | 1 July 2016 | MATT APUZZO

Attorney General Loretta E. Lynch plans to announce on Friday that she will accept whatever recommendation career prosecutors and the F.B.I. director make about whether to bring charges related to Hillary Clinton’s personal email server, a Justice Department official said. Her decision removes the possibility that a political appointee will overrule investigators in the case.

This news coupled with State not releasing Hillary’s emails for two years seems to contradict your statement..

____________

I believe Hillary’s team merely filed a motion requesting a delay. I don’t think the court has ruled on the motion yet.

[cpdiii]

I would love to see this smug, immoral, unqualified, corrupt woman in Federal prison with a 30 year sentence

Hillary or Loretta?

“It just shows how powerful the “Media” could be. One reporter doing the job...One reporter”

Good point. I saw this reporter on Bill O’Reilly and was impressed by him. He was serious, low-key, and thorough. For example, he said Lynch had mentioned Clinton had been playing golf in Phoenix, and the reporter said he used all his contacts to find out WHAT Bill Clinton was doing in Phoenix besides meeting with Lynch, but came up empty. The reporter said, “I'm not saying Clinton wasn't playing golf, just that I couldn't confirm any activity of his outside of his meeting at the airport.”

"I believe Hillary’s team merely filed a motion requesting a delay."

If by, "Hillary's team" you mean the Just Us department... I believe they filed the motion.

[grania]

Can someone try to explain to me again why Martha Stewart went to jail?

[T-Bird45]

Where did I put my BS flag? This is a crock of crap!

[DarthVader]

That’s very true and that motion will likely be denied. Hint: Recall what happened when the DOJ tried to censor the Orlando terrorists transcripts.

[The_Media_never_lie]

She's the nation's top law enforcer....but she was dumb enough to meet w/ the husband of someone she's investigating?

Bill Clinton did what any loving husband would do when his wife if in trouble; he tried to help her.

[miss marmelstein]

Rush suggested something like this; that she going to be replaced by an even friendlier judge. My only problem with that theory is who could be more incompetent, corrupt, or pushing of a 3rd Obama term (Hillary) than this affirmative-action appointee?

[Former Proud Canadian]

Martha Stewart was tried and convicted of lying to a federal investigator.

She was sent to jail to make an example.

[DarthVader]

Hillary’s Team = DOJ which is what you should have said but the collusion is highly obvious.

[CGASMIA68]

Which one(s)?

[The_Media_never_lie]

It just shows how powerful the “Media” could be. One reporter doing the job.

One reporter.

Can you imagine if we had a free, unbiased press?

True. But like you and me, the reporters like to stay employed. Therefore, they only report on stories their bosses approve.

[pas]

You mean the same career justice department lawyers that extended things 27 months? That is who she is turning it over to?

[cpdiii]

I think what this really means is Obama gets to pick the nominee and it will not be Bernie. With Hillary out of the race he would have tremendous presence and sway over the Democrat delegates at the convention.

This is not necessarily good news for Trump. Hillary is the weakest candidate the Dems have. However any candidate Obama picks will still have the stench of lawlessness and corruption that permeates the Democrat Party.

Now the good news, if Hillary is gone and Bernie does not get the nomination, his supporters will revolt.

[Qiviut]

Lying to the FBI. Evidently this is a “thing” with Comey - he really goes after those that lie during their interviews - probably why Hilly hasn’t had hers yet.

[Don Hernando de Las Casas]

for later

[Guenevere]

Just a thought.....
During the primary, Cruz was going to fight Trump to the bitter end...
.....and then, BOOM, he was gone overnight.

I think this will happen with Hillary too!

God is orchestrating this......
......and I believe Trump is the Man for this Season.....
....and all obstacles will be removed.

Trump has proven himself.....and fought hard !

My opinion!

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Mentioned on another thread perhaps this was the end game for Clintons. Taking Loretta at her word, there is a possibility this was a move by clintons to get her off the case because they thought the odds were not in their favor.

Not defending loretta or even suggesting we take her at her word. Only a fool would take her at her word. Trying to think like a clinton & would not put it past them.

Next question: did she recuse on her own or at Obama’s request? Important because no way in hell does Obama want an indictment. Not suggesting he is in cahoots with Clinton—only that he saw an opportunity and ran with it.

"if Hillary is gone and Bernie does not get the nomination, his supporters will revolt."

They're already revolting.
