Ted Cruz asked her:

Q: "Do you think it's Constitutional for the government to lethally drone strike an American citizen ON AMERICAN SOIL who poses no imminent danger?"

Same as Holder, she would NOT answer 'no' to this question.

She understands the Constitution and laws. But she will clearly not uphold the law.

Any Senator who would vote for lawlessness should be removed!

Loretta Lynch
