Comey got 'steely silence' after confronting Loretta Lynch about Clinton's email probe

ORIGINAL STORY: Ex-FBI Director James Comey has privately told members of Congress that he had a frosty exchange with Obama Attorney General Loretta Lynch last year when he confronted her about possible political interference in the Hillary Clinton email investigation after showing Lynch a sensitive document she was unaware the FBI possessed, according to sources who were directly briefed on the matter.
quote:
Comey told lawmakers in the close door session that he raised his concern with the attorney general that she had created a conflict of interest by meeting with Clinton’s husband, the former President Bill Clinton, on an airport tarmac while the investigation was ongoing.
During the conversation, Comey told lawmakers he confronted Lynch with a highly sensitive piece of evidence, a communication between two political figures that suggested Lynch had agreed to put the kibosh on any prosecution of Clinton.
Comey said “the attorney general looked at the document then looked up with a steely silence that lasted for some time, then asked him if he had any other business with her and if not that he should leave her office,” said one source who was briefed.
Comey “took that interaction and the fact she had met with Bill Clinton as enough reason to decide he would not allow the Justice Department to decide the fate of the case and instead would go public” with his own assessment that the FBI could not prove Mrs. Clinton intended to violate the law when she transmitted classified information through her private email and therefore should not be criminally charged. Another source said the "tarmac meeting was the public excuse for not going to Lynch when all along there was other evidence that was more concerning to Comey."

Comey had ZERO fricking nuts for not exposing this bullshite.
He should be barred from working in law enforcement and be disbarred.
He's a bigger flaming pussy that Toddy.

Yeah, I would think that there are several measures of protocol to take and I don't think indicting HRC and then not indicting her is one of them.

It was an email sent by DNC Chair Wasserman-Schultz to a high ranking operative in a Soros funded organization saying that Lynch told Wasserman- Schultz the FBI investigation would be quashed.
Wasserman-Schultz had to be a fricking moron to reveal this over email.

Remember the WaPo story that there was an email but it was a Russian fake? Something is fishy...I think Comey planted that as a cop out. Because in the congrssional hearing he said he wasn't sure of the intelligence.
He is a weak POS that knew Lynch was colluding and obstructing and he did nothing. This breaks his oath and the law.

Remember.... before wikiLeaks-- the democrats were untouchable so they would have been nervy enough to brag in emails. And... they are stupid enough to have password and I heartHillary as their passwords.

Didn't the FBI have testimony with HRC on a Saturday without taping or recording transcripts?
Guess Comey forgot to write a memo to himself regarding that session.
The guy is morally guilty.

There was/is so much BS and shenanigans that I forgot about that one.

Comey was complicit in the cover up and there was a really good reason why HRC was confident her investigation (Matter) wouldn't go anywhere. She had Comey, Lynch, the DNC, and even Obama guiding the ship for her. She never thought the American people would turn their back on her, but they did. So many things that occurred during the campaign had to be staged. All of the Comey antics were suppose to take pressure off of those responsible and possibly even to garner sympathy for HRC but the one thing happened that they never expected to happen.... TRUMP won!!!

That paragraph makes ZERO sense.
Worse it is incredibly stupid.
He is making the claim that his boss wanted to quash Hillary's Crime, so he feels compelled to go public around her back to quash the crime.
Se how oxymoronic his statement is?

Intent is not part of the statute. Guy's a turd.
FBI Rewrites Federal Law to Let Hillary Off the Hook
"There is no way of getting around this: According to Director James Comey (disclosure: a former colleague and longtime friend of mine), Hillary Clinton checked every box required for a felony violation of Section 793(f) of the federal penal code (Title 18): With lawful access to highly classified information she acted with gross negligence in removing and causing it to be removed it from its proper place of custody, and she transmitted it and caused it to be transmitted to others not authorized to have it, in patent violation of her trust. Director Comey even conceded that former Secretary Clinton was “extremely careless” and strongly suggested that her recklessness very likely led to communications (her own and those she corresponded with) being intercepted by foreign intelligence services."

And MSM gives a collective...
They are not concerned about the truth of what happened. They are pushing a very profitable narrative.

It's been widely reported for months that the email you and the OP article reference is fake.

Comey still brought it up with Lynch as an example of how she opened herself up to criticism for how she handled the investigation.
