The FBI is about to make excuses for the Clinton investigation again
by James Gagliano
| June 13, 2018 02:46 PM
Certain current and former members of the FBI and the Department of Justice are steeling themselves for Thursday’s anticipated release of the inspector general’s report. The report is rumored to be a scathing rebuke of decision-making in the Hillary Clinton private email server investigation.
Central figures like former Attorney General Loretta Lynch and fired FBI Director James Comey are included, according to sources familiar with a draft copy.
President Trump is scheduled to receive a briefing on the report’s findings ahead of its release.
Some journalists and media analysts have already begun feeble attempts to pre-emptively blunt the report’s impact, bemoaning the fact that partisan critics of Comey, et al, may “weaponize†the evidence to bludgeon institutions they feel are sacrosanct and beyond reproach.
And of course, improper actions and dubious decisions by civil servants, political appointees, and elected officials are “justified†under the “We had to, because of Trump!†exception to rules, protocols, and laws.

I sincerely hope that the DOJ is, in fact, accountable to someone other than themselves. If that does not happen this once great republic is officially toast.

Oh goodie! So we won't actually have to wait until Thursday then. All we have to do is catch Trump's tweets. Excellent!!! (I hate waiting for "official" releases)

Too late. In case you haven't noticed.... this government is officially dysfunctional. Don't expect the DOJ (Jeff Sessions) to do anything that actually makes logical sense. I don't.

It is very difficult for me to give up hope for my country.

That POS Sessions better not let the DOJ investigate itself. I used to like Sessions now I despise him.

There are always dozens/hundreds of 'investigations' at any given time. Which result in clear overwhelming indisputable evidence. And then magically, somehow it all just goes away? Nothing ever actually happens.
It's nothing but kabuki, dogs and ponies, smoke and mirrors to keep the peasants distracted and appeased until the powers on high can run out the clock.
