MSNBC Guest Argues It’s a ‘Higher Bar’ to Prosecute Clinton Because She’s Running for President
Law Newz ^ | March 28th, 2016 | Chris White

During a panel discussion Monday morning on MSNBC’s Morning Joe about a pair of new reports in the Los Angeles Times and the Washington Post concerning the ongoing FBI investigation into the Clinton private e-mail server, National Journal political reporter Ron Fournier argued that there should be a higher bar to bring charges against Hillary Clinton because she is running for president.

Wait, what? r>
After the initial discussion focused more on the issue of Clinton’s judgment and trustworthiness as well as the likelihood that Clinton set up the server in an effort to evade federal record keeping laws and FOIA requests, program host Joe Scarborough sought to refocus the discussion on the classified information aspect of the investigation.

Rule of Law has never been applicable to the Teflon Klintoons!!! Good luck with this MSLSD - I think Comey and up to 100 FBI personnel are ready to walk if she is not indicted or a special prosecutor/grand jury not assigned.

Shouldn’t it be a lower bar? ESPECIALLY with her party in the executive?

We already know this. If she was a normal person, she’d be in jail already. In fact, there’s a higher bar for prosecuting a Clinton irrespective of whether he or she is running for president.

I would propose that the bar should be lower to ensure that our leaders are trustworthy, but who am I to question them.

Considering rule of law is one of our Constitution’s goals, this person must have attended one of the classes obama allegedly taught.

There is no bar whatsoever. Washington DC is a progressive-left-Democrat cesspool. Absolutely no one in their power-structure wants to indict Hillary because it would leave them greatly embarrassed and scrambling for a viable candidate.

Obama his Lynch are only going through the motions, so he can claim all due investigations have been done, to run out the clock, and get attention-deficit-disordered Americans tired and bored of the issue.

therefore, nothing will happen to Hillary. She knows it.

What happened to equal under the law?

So, she’s getting an affirmative action investigation?

How high was the bar set for Richard Nixon?

And who plunged almost gleefully into the prosecution (persecution?) of Nixon, with little regard for law or procedure, but Herself?

Jerome Zeifman, a longtime Clinton critic who was one of Hillary’s bosses on the committee that recommended Nixon’s impeachment back in 1974, charged that Hillary was guilty of unethical, Nixonian behavior during her service on the committee.

Her 1974 service as a junior staff lawyer on the House judiciary committee’s Nixon impeachment panel comes at the very beginning of the “35 years of experience” she so often cites.

For seemingly hating Nixon so much, Herself is STRAINING to emulate or even exceed the excesses that Nixon practiced.

That's putting it kindly.

No surprise. The concept of common law has been dead for quite some time.
