Texas Sen. John Cornyn is demanding answers from Attorney General Loretta Lynch about the Justice Department’s decision earlier this year to decline an FBI recommendation to investigate the Clinton Foundation.
The Republican points out in the letter that the DOJ’s decision not to pursue an investigation despite the FBI’s recommendation is in stark contrast to its decision last month to accept the bureau’s recommendation not to charge Clinton following its email probe.
"The outcome in both cases favors Secretary Clinton," Cornyn writes.
On Thursday, CNN reported that the FBI and three Justice Department field offices recommended that Justice Department headquarters open a public integrity investigation into the Clinton family charity.

The fact that Cornyn is even sending a letter, instead of holding a press conference and demanding that the House begin impeachment proceedings, means that he’s just covering his @ss.
Remember that little meeting on the plane?
A better question. Why have the Republicans done nothing?
Organized crime. DemocRATs have always sided with the mob and the unions they control. Corruption is their goal. They do not work or create anything, they only take.
Ah, the biggest gift we got this election was this freak not being indicted but being condemned by Comey.
If we can’t beat this creature, we might as well fold up the tents and go home!
Horse already left the barn. A strongly worded letter ain’t gonna do s*** now.
Why are so many Republicans standing up for the traitorous witch and against Trump?
I am screaming angry at our “public servants”. I pray Trump wins...he is literally our only hope.
The GOPe are on their side. It doesn't matter if they have a pair or not.
Nobody is off limits.
She is going down.
A letter ? ... That’s going to get her attention...probably had to change her depends / S
It’s already been filed in the shredder....
How about put her under oath and grill her in front of the world during a congressional hearing...
That is right. None of them are untouchable.
Kinda late in life for a nut drop.
Interesting, though.
Sorta.
“Why have the Republicans done nothing?”
Indeed. They indict themselves by their inaction. Although we know why: The Clintons’ built-up database of damning info on dirty GOPe players. As many of them as Ds will go down with a Trump-driven investigation.
We’re not in DC, and we’re not stupid or blind. Trump is shining bright light on a city of vermin, and they’re snarling, snapping and grouping together.
Because doing something would require doing the only thing that they can do - use the power of the purse to strangle the truth out of the administration. You do things like pass appropriations legislation stating - no more than 30% of funds made available in this account my be expended until General Lynch takes the following actions...
even that is chancy. You can just state no funds in this account. At such time as the General has completed action Y, the General is invited to submit a new appropriation for the remainder of the year.
That is lawful pay to play or play to get paid, and committee chairmen use it all the time.
But if you are on the gravy train, then such acts hurt your cause, which is why the republicans expedited the passage of the budget and then talked about proposing a conservative agenda.
PS see previous. Follow the money.
