    So we don't have a quote from Loretto Lynch, but a comment from an operative expressing confidence in her ultimate conclusion?

    Stop the presses.

    How many more Benghazi investigations do you think would have been necessary to find more zero evidence of wrongdoing? Another dozen? Do you enjoy your tax dollars being spent on right wing theatrics and grandstanding? Well I do not!

    If Obama had refused to produce his tax returns, which every POTUS has done since the 1970's btw, the right wing would have had s**t-hemorrhage rallies.

    That account is at least as credible a Steeles dossier. Steele has demonstrated very little confidence in the information he collected through 3rd parties, for cash. Steele is testifying in a defamation suit brought by a Russian he claimed was a spy.

    Perhaps you missed his ways to get out of it.


    I know of no poster willing to pour through the zillion of tax forms that were sent to the IRS. Most don't even want to see their own tax return. Tell me, once you filed, did you keep studying it to ensure you pulled nothing shady on the IRS?

    Did you personally look over Obama's tax returns? If so, what were you looking for?

    so why did that operative have that confidence? everything pointed to that she broke the law.
    what information did he or she have that the rest if didn't? and who gave him or her that information?
    don't you think the FBI needs to look into that?

    LOL! No.

    As I told you guys for months, the legal case against Clinton was never there. Malicious intent is part of the standard in question, and there was no indication of such.

    So no, there is nothing inherently shady about people who know the law looking at the available evidence and concluding that there doesn't appear to have been any law broken.

    Sure, if the memo in question actually warrants some sort of investigation. Just don't expect it to go anywhere interesting.

    I no longer have any doubts of your ridiculous conspiraces, even after the DoD has made specific statements that none of your conspiracies happen, you have been provided that multiple times, and we are still.

    You are pushing perhaps the dumbest argument in defense of Trump's failure to abide by basic standards of transparency.

    No, I don't expect to personally go over his returns.

    However, I expect people who are experts in tax law to go over them, and tell me what they find. And then I can decide if the returns show anything I find questionable.

    See, that's how transparency works. The point of transparency is TRANSPARENCY, to prove you don't have anything to hide, and so we, the citizenry, know where your personal financial interests and conflicts of interest are.

    That's good news, but going by Comey's track record, I don't have very high hopes that anything will happen. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

    Tax returns are transparent. We hire the IRS. They have experts crawling all over his tax forms. If they don't arrest him, he has done nothing wrong.

    What is truly dumb is to expect other taxpayers, none of whom show the public their tax returns, to evaluate even with experts checking the forms. It is a duplicate of efforts. IRS first and somebody else later.

    The government does however require disclosures of wealth, income, cash value of assets. Trump is clear as a whistle there. 140 forms that many can comprehend, so why isn't' that enough?

    Do you suspect him of something? Were you in his shoes, would you tell the IRS things that are illegal? Would you?

    You are on this forum every day all day. Being unemployed, how can you gripe about tax dollars you aren't paying going to anything? 2016 I payed almost $40,000 in combined state and fed income tax and I would rather see it go to an investigation than to someone who has nothing better to do in life than take up space.

    Incorrect. All the IRS cares about is whether he violated tax law. That is not why we expect our leaders to release their tax returns. We expect them to release their tax returns, as has been pointed out at least a million times, so we can see where their financial interests and conflicts of interest are.

    The two are complementary, not duplicative. Tax returns show details that the financial disclosure doesn't, and vice versa.

    The point of transparency is TRANSPARENCY, not whether you suspect him of wrongdoing. One does not have to break the law to have conflicts of interest.

    there was many lawyers and judges that said with the information that was provided she broke the law and no where in the federal statute intent was a requirement when it came to mishandling classified information. Comey with no jurisdiction to do so added that requirement which wasn't there.
    this has been explained to you over and over again. I even remember posting the law and challenged you to find the word intent any where within the law but like all liberals you are to dam dense to understand that and I refuse to hash that all back over again because I will be doing nothing but wasting my time

    Correct. She broke the law. She violated Executive Order 13526 and 18 U.S.C Sec. 793(f) of the federal code making it unlawful to send or store classified information on personal email and Section 1236.22 of the 2009 National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). It is not a gray area, she was in clear violation.

    Now that Loretta Lynch is gone and being investigated, Comey may no longer have to hide or fear for his job. He can start to investigate these matters for the new DOJ. One that isn't as crooked as a 3 dollar bill.

    Really based on what? A document hacked by the Russians that no one has ever seen. The commie document wasn't written by Lynch.
    The New York times broke the story first in April 22

    You have no clue what's in the document. If you trust in the New York Times now than do you also trust that the New York Times was 100% correct when it stated Donny and his staff during the campaign were using DNC documents hacked by the Russians to win. Trump supporters will lick the NYT's shoes when it's useful . The hypocrites suddenly love the mainstream press like the Washington Post when the reporting seems to go their way. . Next time lets have a real American Election not one where Donny Dufus relies on information from a foreign dictatorship to win. Donny is pro Donny, he is an anti-american who will back stab American Democracy to win.

    The doc shows that Lynch never wrote it. The Right Wing propaganda machine keeps on churning.


    https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/22/us/politics/james-comey-election.html

    "NYT April 22"

    "During Russia’s hacking campaign against the United States, intelligence agencies could peer, at times, into Russian networks and see what had been taken. Early last year, F.B.I. agents received a batch of hacked documents, and one caught their attention.

    The document, which has been described as both a memo and an email, was written by a Democratic operative who expressed confidence that Ms. Lynch would keep the Clinton investigation from going too far, according to several former officials familiar with the document.

    Former Justice Department officials are deeply skeptical of this account. If Mr. Comey believed that Ms. Lynch were compromised, they say, why did he not seek her recusal? Mr. Comey never raised this issue with Ms. Lynch or the deputy attorney general, Sally Q. Yates, former officials said."

    You repeated what I said about the IRS.
    Does the term witch hunt come to mind? Face it, there is the presumption he did wrong. You wonder if he has conflicts of interest? Tax returns are not for the purpose. They are a revenue scheme by the IRS.

    Since you never studied the 140 pages he submitted, it is extremely doubtful you will take on the what appears to be thousands of tax forms. I won't bother.

    Nope. Just reciting codes means nothing. First you have to prove deliberate intent not just to break the law but also to deliberately put the country in harms way. Also you have to prove beyond a doubt that with 30,000 emails Clinton had the time to review everyone of them and know their classification status. Third In this case you would have to prove that she had kept thousands of classified emails not just a dozen out of 30,000. Remember Comey himself said he would have had trouble determining whether some of the State Department Emails were classified let alone 30,000 of them. Also Classification determination is not cut and dry. So many conservatives wish it were so but it aint. The State Department and Intelligence agencies regularly dispute the classification status of documents. Proving It's not a cut and dry science.

    You should read about how espionage courts make judgements. Comey borrowed from precedent.

    Loretta Lynch was protecting her and is under investigation, the emails and documents will come to light very soon.
