Loretta Lynch, the former attorney general under Barack Obama, pressured former FBI Director James Comey to downplay the Clinton email server investigation and only refer to it as a “matter,” Comey testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday.

Comey said that when he asked Lynch if she was going to authorize him to confirm the existence of the Clinton email investigation, her answer was, “Yes but don’t call it that. Call it a matter.” When Comey asked why, he said, Lynch wouldn’t give him an explanation. “Just call it a matter,” she said.

Comey added later that he was concerned about that direction as it was false. He was further concerned because it aligned with the Clinton campaign’s spin on the investigation.

Those were Bill's instructions on the tarmac most likely.

If it burns enough asses, I'll find another.

Let the Hillary/Barack/Loretta/Jim/etc investigations proceed.

Then what is stopping the republican administration, the republican senate, or the republican house from conducting these investigations?

That makes his testimony all the more credible. He came across as completely non-partisan and completely believable when he repeatedly said that Trump is a serial liar.

They can only say "no".

I say we take the training wheels off of congress and the Trump WH and see what happens.

Sen. Grassley started an investigation into Hillary's relationship with a corrupt banker recently.

Comey was responding to the White House's claims in the days after his firing that the then-director had "lost the confidence" of the FBI rank-and-file employees. He never called the POTUS a serial liar.

And probably a job offer in a Hillary Administration.

Oh yes he did....multiple times. Did you watch the hearing? This is a he said/he said situation and its clear to anyone except for those with their head so far up Trump's ass...who is the one telling the truth. And it certainly isn't the orange one.
