Readers are unlikely to know that the Eastern District of New York in Brooklyn is not just any United States attorneys office. It is the office that was headed by Attorney General Loretta Lynch until President Obama elevated her to attorney general less than two years ago. It was in the EDNY that Ms. Lynch first came to national prominence in 1999, when she was appointed U.S. attorney by President Bill Clinton the husband of the main subject of the FBIs investigations with whom Lynch furtively met in the back of a plane parked on an Arizona tarmac days before the announcement that Mrs. Clinton would not be indicted.
Where they talked about grandkids, right? Right. No wonder BJ Billy was so eager to get to that plane.
But this was Lynch's old stomping ground, and she's in the soup right up to the neck. The object was, and remains, to take the investigation of the Clinton Foundation out of the hands of anyone who might be able to do anything about it. The upshot is that classified material compromises may be the lesser of the crimes. The real target of the investigations is the Clinton Foundation, and if Huma and Tony Weiner have to go down to prevent that investigation from going forward, they'll be cheerfully sacrificed. Deputy Director McCabe, whose wife was the recipient of the $675,000, was instrumental in blocking the investigation. The immunity that never should have been granted was granted to block the investigation's access to evidence. It is these things that gave Comey the accurate impression that he was being end-run and placed in the position of a fall guy.
The pieces are fitting together beautifully. How this does not meet the standards of criminal conspiracy is quite beyond this layman's imagination.
PING!!!

THE CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY UP CLOSE (hat tip Billthedrill):
<><> FBI Deputy Director McCabe's wife got a campaign donation of $675,000,
<><> the donations was instrumental in blocking the investigation.
<><> Comey grated immunity to block the investigation's access to evidence.
SUMMING UP Comey's added it all up---now Comey realizes he was
being end-run and that the Clinton cabal tapped him as the fall guy.
Mmmmmm....the investigations are gonna get fierce.
I don't know how many people even care about corruption and the rule of law any more--obviously none of those who have voted or plan to vote for Hillary care--but this needs to be publicized as much as possible between now and November 8. Hannity may be the only person with a large viewership who would be interested in having Andrew McCarthy on. Of course the LIVs won't be watching.
