According to the New Yorker, "Comey’s decision to make public new evidence that may raise additional legal questions about Clinton was contrary to the views of the Attorney General, according to a well-informed Administration official. Lynch expressed her preference that Comey follow the department’s longstanding practice of not commenting on ongoing investigations, and not taking any action that could influence the outcome of an election, but he said that he felt compelled to do otherwise."
Traditionally, the Justice Department has advised prosecutors and law enforcement to avoid any appearance of meddling in the outcome of elections, even if it means holding off on pressing cases. One former senior official recalled that Janet Reno, the Attorney General under Bill Clinton, “completely shut down” the prosecution of a politically sensitive criminal target prior to an election. “She was adamant—anything that could influence the election had to go dark,” the former official said.
And the punchline:
"according to the Administration official, Lynch asked Comey to follow Justice Department policies, but he said that he was obliged to break with them because he had promised to inform members of Congress if there were further developments in the case. He also felt that the impending election created a compelling need to inform the public, despite the tradition of acting with added discretion around elections. The Administration official said that Lynch and Justice Department officials are studying the situation, which he called unprecedented."

Lynch in CYA mode
When all are in CYA mode by the end of today, the pieces can be collected and there will be a path to truth
Hang that bitch.
Let us return to the tarmac....where we find Loretta and Bubba on the plane talking about golfing and their grandchildren.....Two days before Comey exonerates Careless Hillary.
Loretta Lynch= Obama’s “House Niggah!” I just hope her “little sit down” with Slick on her plane in Phoenix lands her in jail!
BTW, anyone know if the NYPD investigation into Weiner was started before or after Bratton was replaced?
I think Comey has not slept well since he decided to be the pawn of the evil regime.
He probably has had the most overwhelming bout of conscience imaginable. He has caused the FBI to be called a corrupt institution. I think this is something that ate away at him. Becoming part of the corruption has brought shame on his own reputation, along with the entire FBI. I’ll bet the atmosphere around the FBI has been dark since Comey sold his soul.
Now comes along a chance for him to reverse that. I believe that’s why he is taking action. It feels better to be on the side of doing right.
Let’s not forget that the NYPD first started this investigation into Anthony Weiner and it was the NYPD that confiscated the electronic device/devices. If there was no classified info why would they have turned it over to the FBI? Folks, there IS classified info and the Director of the FBI cannot whitewash this because it is now out of his control!!!
Roasted quash. Goes well with a little butter and brown sugar.
The NSA has all the emails and information. Lynch is helping to hide same. NYC found these emails. HRC is bluffing about revealing what the FBI has found. FBI will now withhold all the emails for some time. If they believe they need to hide this information before the election they really went out on a limb by disclosing same. I think they have new email accounts for Huma and hillary. They would not have gone public now unless the information is extremely dangerous to Hillary.
.....but perfectly legal to meet on a runway with the husband of someone under investigation as AG.
Stuff it Loretta!
Not before she's tarred and feathered!!!
Lynch expressed her preference that Comey follow the department's longstanding practice of not commenting on ongoing investigations ...
So, she has changed her position? In July, she expressed no such concern or misgiving.
That snark aside, I have some for the report. Name names or it didn't happen. This is like those disgruntled FBI agents who can;t be named. I think Lynch and Comey are in on yesterday's letter. What the strategy or plan is, beats the heck out of me.
TWO FACTORS ARE IN PLAY:
1) Evidence must have surfaced that proves Huma Abedin was involved in espionage....
2) .....all the ‘missing emails’ have been hacked from an NSA server where they were captured long ago....the main WIKILEAKS hacker has them....
(Did you catch the caller on Rush Limbaugh yesterday morning & his ‘spilling the beans’ about what he knows from a secret phone call he had received from a high place source afterward?)
Consequently, Corrupt Comey Cannot Continue to Conspire & Collude with Clinton Campaign....
It's not "unprecedented."
Let's all remember that Caspar Weinberger was indicted just four days before the George H. W. Bush v Bill Clinton election, so election-changing indictments have been done to Republicans.
In Weinberger's case, it greatly benefitted the rise of Bill Clinton, so it's the height of hypocrisy to complain about it now.

Investigators from Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara’s office slapped Weiner with a subpoena for his cell phone in September after it was revealed that he had allegedly sexted with a 15-year-old North Carolina girl.

Sources told the Daily News that the House Oversight Committee is considering a last-minute hearing on the topic before the election and asking Comey to come in, possibly as early as Friday.

Multiple FBI investigations are underway involving potential corruption charges against the Clinton Foundation, according to a former senior law enforcement official.
The investigation centers on New York City where the Clinton Foundation has its main offices, according to the former official who has direct knowledge of the activities.
Prosecutorial support will come from various U.S. Attorneys Offices — a major departure from other centralized FBI investigations.
The New York-based probe is being led by Preet Bharara, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York. Bharara’s prosecutorial aggressiveness has resulted in a large number of convictions of banks, hedge funds and Wall Street insiders.
“Loretta Lynch needs to by lynched.”
The best way to do that is to defeat her Mistress and Master, Clinton on election day.
If Clinton becomes Potus, Lynch will become a Supreme.
Then, she will $crew not only us, but our children, grandkids and those not born yet.
To think US national security information was on a computer used by a pervert to connect to kiddie diddler sites and with Huma maybe also sending it to the Muslim Brotherhood. Hillary could be the first US President to resign before being inaugurated
Whatever it is, it has to be pretty damn big and incriminating or Comey knows he will be lynched. He is still a weasel.
“Now comes along a chance for him to reverse that. I believe that’s why he is taking action. It feels better to be on the side of doing right.”
And I guess there’s an outside chance that Comey has been playing “rope-a-dope” with the Clintons knowing that doing this about face at this late date would make it impossible for the RATs to regain the lead. Probably not true, but it’s a thought! The part that I can’t believe is that this is “late-breaking” news. Carlos has been under investigation by one group of LEOs or another for several years.
