Senate announces probe of Loretta Lynch behavior in 2016 election
Washington Times, Jun 23, 2017. Stephen Dinan

The Senate Judiciary Committee has opened a probe into former Attorney General Loretta Lynch’s efforts to shape the FBI’s investigation into 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, the committee’s chairman announced Friday.

In a letter to Ms. Lynch, the committee asks her to detail the depths of her involvement in the FBI’s investigation, including whether she ever assured Clinton confidantes that the probe wouldn’t “push too deeply into the matter.”

Fired FBI Director James B. Comey has said publicly that Ms. Lynch tried to shape the way he talked about the investigation into Mrs. Clinton’s emails, and he also hinted at other behavior “which I cannot talk about yet” that made him worried about Ms. Lynch’s ability to make impartial decisions.

Which has exactly what bearing in this?  The Senate was under Republican control then as now.

I still don't believe it.  I bet the Senate Judiciary Committee really intends to investigate Loretta Lynn.

I'm guessing she will totally ignore it with no consequence.  She is a democrat....
