Loretta Lynch Releases Statement Slamming Comey Before Interview.
Over almost two decades as a federal prosecutor I have aggressively prosecuted drug dealers, violent gangs, mobsters, and money launderers, upheld the civil rights of all Americans, and fought corruption of all types –– whether by elected officials from both sides of the aisle or within organizations like FIFA. Through it all I have never hesitated to make the hard decisions, guided by the Department of Justice’s core principles or integrity, independence and above all, always doing the right thing.
The Justice Department’s handling of the Clinton email investigation under my leadership was no exception. It was led by a team of non-partisan career prosecutors whose integrity cannot be overstated and whom I trusted to assess the facts and make a recommendation – one that I ultimately accepted because I thought the evidence and law warranted it.
Everyone who works for the Department of Justice has an obligation to protect the confidentiality and integrity of the work of the department. That is why, at the critical early stages of this case, I followed the departments long-standing policy of neither confirming nor denying the fact of an ongoing investigation. This policy both pre-dates my tenure in the Department and will live on long after the current debate is over. It neither misleads nor misinforms, but instead both protects investigations and guarantees equal treatment of those under scrutiny, whether well-known or unknown. Any suggestion that I invoked this bed rock policy for any other reason is simply false.
Throughout the process I did what I always do: rise above politics and uphold the law. At no time did I ever discuss any aspect of the investigation with anyone from the Clinton campaign or the DNC.
I have known James Comey almost 30 years. Throughout his time as Director we spoke regularly about some of the most sensitive issues in law enforcement and national security. If he had any concerns regarding the email investigation, classified or not, he had ample opportunities to raise them with me both privately and in meetings. He never did.
As Q predicted.
Nothing is “a matter”
Anyone can see
Nothing is “a matter”
to me……
Pass the popcorn
*giggle*
Shit, they may all start accidentally confessing during the fighting.
April SHOWERS.
Wait until May. Oh boy.
This has the potential of being a big week. There are 2 separate days that could be recognized as Patriots Day. Tomorrow, which is the third Monday of the month, and the 19th, which is the real dates of the the battles of Lexington and Concord, which kicked off the War for Independence. Could be some symbolic, patriotic stuff going on. Plus there is a shitstorm brewing.
A Dem shit sandwich. Yummy,
I love it when the Left consumes their own.
With apologies to Emerson, “The louder she talked of her honor, the faster we counted our spoons.”
Not enough. Not fast enough.
PERP WALKS. STAT !
“not even a smidgen of corruption.”
Barry must not be enjoying post-presidential life very much while he watches all this unfold from the sidelines. Startin’ to sweat are ya Barry?
“At no time did I ever discuss any aspect of the investigation with anyone from the Clinton campaign or the DNC.”
Discussing it on the tarmac with Bill Clinton, however, was A-OK.
She listed clintons trade qualifications
drug dealers, violent gangs, mobsters, and money launderers,
There’s too much infighting amongst the dems. Time for the Republicans to go help them out.
“..above all, always doing the right thing.”
By whose standards AG Lynch?
The standards of the do anything for the cause socialist leftists?
I’m waiting for the Wilford Brimley scene in ” Absence of Malice”.
This is just choreographed theatrics between attorneys trying to earn money on books sales and salvage what credibility remains.
Nothing will happen, as far as, indictments, prosecution or judicial proceedings.
Since The Party only allows The Party, can we laugh every time an apparatchik describes their fellow apparatchiks in good standing as “non-partisan”? Of course they are “non-partisan,” when there can only be The Party!
I’d try to demand they describe themselves as “non-political.” But I already know that’s a crime against The Party.
“Through it all I have never hesitated to make the hard decisions…”
That’s it! You should write a book, Loretta. Call it “Hard Decisions”…no, “Hard Choices” sounds better. Oh, wait…
I love it when the big guppies eat the little guppies.

Just remember: Two of them disagreeing with one another does not mean one is telling the truth.
Usually means they are both lying…
We definitely need to see some perp walk to justify our optimism.
I think they should replace the bus that they are throwing each other under with a tank.
CYS to fuc late your ass is in trouble. You better get a lawyer.
