‘New Leads’ in Clinton Email Review Halt Inspector General’s Testimony
The Western Journal ^ | 5/6/2018

Posted on 05/07/2018 8:23:57 AM PDT by Signalman

The Justice Department’s inspector general has delayed upcoming testimony about the Hillary Clinton email investigation amid reports he is pursuing new information regarding the handling of the case.

Fox News reported that Inspector General Michael Horowitz “has pursued new leads” and will not be appearing before the House Oversight Committee on Tuesday as planned.

The investigation that started in January uncovered “potentially important additional information and documents that recently came to our attention,” Horowitz wrote last month, according to Fox News, adding that, “my expectation is that we will issue our report in May, absent any new developments.”

Horowitz told Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley last month that his report on the investigation was taking longer than expected.

“It is of the utmost importance that your review be as fulsome, complete and unimpeded as possible,” Gowdy wrote, according to Fox News. Gowdy said in the letter that he wants Horowitz to appear “as close to the day the report is finalized as is practicable” and noted that “the representations” Horowitz made in an April 23 letter are the reason for the delay.

Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said Friday that Horowitz will complete his work soon.

“Within the next few weeks, I anticipate that our inspector general will complete a comprehensive, fair and nonpartisan report that answers many questions about how the Department of Justice handled a high-profile investigation during the last presidential campaign,” Rosenstein said. “We will learn from it, and our department will do better in the future.”

Expectations are high that Horowitz’s report will be a bombshell.

The report will be highly critical of former FBI Director James Comey, Time reported.

Citing sources it did not name, Time said Comey will be criticized for his July 2016 press event when he cleared Clinton of criminal activity while criticizing her actions.

When the Clinton’s put their house up for sale, you know the fecal fan is being inundated.

I've driven by the house in Chappaqua...there's no way that it would bring more than a few million.Given that they're worth half a billion they could skip without selling.

I’m guessing his report will be delayed until the Midterm elections. He probably has one version if the Dems win control of the House and another if the GOP retains control. Of course, if the Dems win, look for them to completely stop caring.

Talk about old news.

Not so this delay is only about a week or two.

I am betting it took him a while to get the Fibbers and DOJ to turn over those 60k emails Huma/Wiener had stashed on a laptop for an insurance policy.

Most likely full of documented criminal activities, like Hillary demanding all her emails be destroyed or hid to avoid the supaena for them.

I get the feeling that this IG thing will drag on and on, and nothing will ever come of it, it’s just another distraction.

Any odds on the IG report not being released until after statute of limitations has expired for any of Hillary’s offenses?

This IG is the one who found nothing criminal about the DOJ running guns to the Mexican cartels.

I wonder if Hillary stopped by Kim Dotcom's place for another selfie after she "had breakfast" with the NZ PM? Kim, whatever you do, don't eat any shiny red apple she gives you.

(Hillary isn't looking the best today, BTW.)

2 weeks of praying for the Inspector General’s safety, as well as a few judges that ruffled Muller’s feathers last week, that could also turn into a problem for Hillary.

Wow. Cool the engines Francis.

I actually hope I’m wrong. We’ll see.
