In a combative exchange at a hearing Friday in Washington, D.C., a federal judge unabashedly accused career State Department officials of lying and signing "clearly false" affidavits to derail a series of lawsuits seeking information about former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's private email server and her handling of the 2012 terrorist attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
U.S. District Court Judge Royce Lamberth said he was "shocked" and "dumbfounded" when he learned that the Department of Justice's Inspector General (IG) had granted immunity to former Clinton chief of staff Cheryl Mills during its investigation into the use of Clinton's server, according to a court transcript of his remarks.
"I had myself found that Cheryl Mills had committed perjury and lied under oath in a published opinion I had issued in a Judicial Watch case where I found her unworthy of belief, and I was quite shocked to find out she had been given immunity in — by the Justice Department in the Hillary Clinton email case," Lamberth said during Friday's hearing.
The DOJ IG, Michael Horowitz, noted in his report that it was "inconsistent with typical investigative strategy" for the FBI to allow Mills to sit in during the agency's interview of Clinton during the email probe, given that classified information traveled through Mills' personal email account. "[T]here are serious potential ramifications when one witness attends another witness’ interview," the IG wrote.

Obama's DOJ and FBI were corrupt at the top, to the core.
The 'swamp' keeps getting deeper. Who knows how deep it really is?
And to think, if Hillary were president (shudder at the thought), we would know absolutely nothing about all of these shenanigans.
One more reason November 8th, 2016 was such an important date in our nations history.

Enough with you Mr. Rope Hanging. Ad nauseam with such nonsense! This is the 21st century, 2018 to be exact.
Burning at the Stake is warranted! Want a real deterrent - Buring at the Stake!
WE ALL KNEW THIS A LONG TIME AGO !
It's moving at the speed of government.
