Hillary just boxed in AG Loretta Lynch
American Thinker ^ | 04/07/2016 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 04/07/2016 10:52:23 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Hillary Clinton yesterday made it very difficult for Attorney General Loretta Lynch to decline to prosecute a possible criminal referral from the FBI. Using her trademark sandpaper tone of voice when she is being emphatic, speaking to a rally in Pennsylvania, Hillary flat out declared: “Everyone who violates the law anywhere should be held accountable.”

She was, of course, thinking about other people -- specifically those people exposed in the Panama Papers hack. But this sort of blanket statement could be used against Lynch if she were to decline to prosecute following a criminal referral. And (under my dream scenario), if she were to continue to run for president following a referral that was not prosecuted, this snippet could be played over and over again in campaign ads and emails.

It could be, if there was an opposition party.

No doubt Mrs. Clinton has something on the AG.

Dream on, Lifson. Obama won’t let anything happen to Hillary...she has too much dirt on him. Mutually assured destruction.

“Everyone who violates the law anywhere should be held accountable.”

In Clinton-speak, she is not part of this statement. Her crimes in the email case were over the internet, which is not really "Somewhere", and the place where the server was is nowhere near her somewhere.

Get it?

“her trademark sandpaper tone of voice”

Sandpaper? Heck, how about volcanic rock coupled with nails on a chalkboard is more like it.

Loretta Lynch couldn’t serve Hillary Clinton a ham sandwich. Box, or no box.

“under my dream scenario”

Dream on. She won’t be indicted, at least not until a Republican gets elected.

That is unless Obama wants to replace her with another candidate and she won’t drop out, but I think that bird has flown.

A series of amorphous zeroes and ones, in eight, sixteen, thirty two, or sixty four strings, through wires, airwaves, fiber optic lines, and switches.

Get a McJury to fathom that?

yep-

Hitlerly could flat out say- “I violated EVERY LAW!”

AND “I sold ALL of AMERICA’s secrets!”

AND I have “HIDDEN $$BILLIONS in Foreign banks-!”

( she has done all of the above)

She will NOT be prosecuted- because a majority in congress
have her Back-

C’mon, she’s a Clinton!
Depends on what your definition of “is” is and all that.

Great! Like asking if you want to be shot or hung? Aren't choices nice?

Shrillary already knows the fix is in and she's not going to be referred for prosecution, much less prosecution.

That's why she can say this.
