USA TODAY: Lawmakers to grill Loretta Lynch on Bill Clinton meeting, email probe

WASHINGTON — Republican lawmakers pummeled Attorney General Loretta Lynch with questions Tuesday about the Justice Department's decision not to prosecute Hillary Clinton for sending classified information on a private, unsecured email system, but Lynch repeatedly declined to explain the legal basis for the decision.

GOP members of the House Judiciary Committee suggested Clinton was given preferential treatment, and they highlighted a meeting between Lynch and former president Bill Clinton on June 27, just over a week before Lynch announced there would be no charges in the case.

Lynch testified that it would be “inappropriate” for her to discuss confidential briefings she received on the case and repeatedly reiterated that she took the recommendation not to pursue charges from career investigators and prosecutors. She said FBI Director James Comey — who said Hillary Clinton was “extremely careless” but should not be charged — has already provided more detailed information than is typical for a federal investigation.

Lynch is another professional liar.

This is not a typical investigation. It is the outer shell of a putrid core of lies, deceit, treachery, theft, and unwarranted death.
