Lynch never technically recused herself. She merely said she would accept Comey’s recommendation whatever it was. She never relinquished her authority over this case or over the DOJ attorneys working the case.
Her attorneys at DOJ were working on a daily basis with the FBI agents working the case and she knew exactly what was going on at the FBI and what Comey was doing.
They put Comey out there as the public face of this farce after building him up as a man of integrity in the media, the Dems and the GOPe.
They knew the public would not buy it if Lynch and the Hillary fans at the DOJ stepped forward as the public face of the investigation, but in fact the DOJ corruptly protected Hillary every step of the way, behind the scenes while Man of Integrity Comey gave the interviews and spoke before Congress.
Thanks for clarifying that for me.
I apologize if someone has already addressed this, I haven’t made it past post 99, which is what Lynch’s ‘pleading the 5th’ is in relation to. It’s not about Comey, it’s about the Iran deal.
