Bill Clinton 'offended' over criticism of his tarmac meeting with ex-AG Lynch

Former President Bill Clinton was “offended” by the widespread criticism of his June 2016 tarmac meeting with then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch days before the FBI decided it would not recommend criminal charges against his wife, he told the Justice Department’s inspector general.

“I thought you know, I don’t know whether I’m more offended that they think I’m crooked or that they think I’m stupid,” Clinton told investigators, according to the report released Thursday by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz.

The long-awaited report was released Thursday afternoon, spanning nearly 600 pages and scrutinizing the actions of numerous figures who played a key role in the Justice Department and FBI's investigation. It is the product of an 18-month review, incorporating dozens of witness interviews and hundreds of thousands of documents.

In the report, Horowitz criticized Lynch’s infamous meeting with Clinton on the Arizona tarmac, calling it “an error in judgment" as the Justice Department was investigating then-Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton for her email practices while serving as secretary of state.

“Brazen” is how I would describe it. The meeting was a part of the conspiracy to coordinate the sham FBI investigation into Hillary’s mishandling of classified government documents with her presidential campaign.

Their actions are always ‘justified’ because of the dastardly nature of conservatives, and they know the Media has their back.

Go away, Bill. We’really not buying the manure you’re spreading.

“The meeting was a part of the conspiracy to coordinate the sham FBI investigation into Hillary’s mishandling of classified government documents with her presidential campaign.”

Correct. My theory is that BJ was there to tell Loretta it was time to wrap this thing up. They did it thinking no one would see them. Even though they all knew she wouldn’t be charged with anything, it was difficult running a sham investigation and make it appear like they were running a legitimate investigation - there were no upside at that point of her campaign. In fact the longer it went on the worse it was for her. Very shortly thereafter, everything was wrapped up.

Look, Clinton was only visiting her to tell her of what a dead horse head in your bed means. The mafia knows why and he wanted her to know too.

the only real outrage is that the meeting was reported to the public.


As shown in the FBI emails and documents that have been released.

I think it was to an FOIA of Judicial Watch.

Is this the same Bill Clinton who took plane rides to an island where they have underage children for rent?

“Pssttt, Billy.....we think you’re both.....stupid and crooked.”

But what got you into trouble that day is your arrogance and, judging by this latest statement, arrogance still is.

Keep on digging. Your wife is.

Following on last week’s Bill Clinton quote:

“I think the norms have really changed in terms of, what you can do to somebody against their will....”

Bill has proved himself arrogant about his being both crooked and stupid. He’s in the hole and keeps digging, and his prior defenders are ready to move on, finally.

He did not have sex with that women because that would be stupid. Got it. Perhaps you are both stupid and crooked Bill. The two are typically not mutually exclusive.
