Former FBI legal counsel Lisa Page testified to Congress that the Justice Department ordered the FBI not to charge former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with “gross negligence” by mishandling classified information.
Transcripts of Page’s closed-door testimony in July 2018 were released Tuesday by Rep. Doug Collins (R-GA) on Tuesday, which included the following exchange with Rep. John Ratcliffe (R-TX):
RATCLIFFE: So let me if I can, I know I’m testing your memory. But when you say advice you got from the Department, you’re making it sound like it was the Department that told you: You’re not going to charge gross negligence because we’re the prosecutors and we’re telling you we’re not going to …
PAGE: That is correct.
RATFLIFFE: …bring a case based on that.
Ratcliffe highlighted the exchange on Twitter.
Page confirmed that the Department of Justice led by Attorney General Loretta Lynch had “multiple conversations” about charging Clinton with gross negligence but noted that it would be a rare decision.
“[T]hey did not feel they could sustain a charge,” she said, referring to the Department of Justice.
President Donald Trump reacted to the reports on Wednesday.
“The just revealed FBI Agent Lisa Page transcripts make the Obama Justice Department look exactly like it was, a broken and corrupt machine,” he wrote. “Hopefully, justice will finally be served. Much more to come!”

I doubt it very much.
Democrats have corrupted everything in the US!
Man, that suspiciously sounds like...obstruction of justice!
So when do people start going to prison?
Obstruction of Justice! the Dems M.O.
the dems always accuse the opposition of doing what they do.
The logjam is beginning to break, now that “obstructing” Mueller’s investigation isn’t a credible threat. The rollout should continue THROUGH the next election. And I know I am getting WAY ahead of myself, but I could imagine a presidential pardon (from Trump) for Hillary and Obama to help “heal” the nation...after all of their henchmen and women are rounded up, of course.
Guess we know what was discussed on the tarmac
That's why we had the uproar over the FBI's "investigation" of Hitlery Clinton and James Comey's "recommendation" to Justice (Loretta Lynch) to not charge Clinton. It wasn't Comey's place to recommend one way or another - he did it because Lynch was compromised after meeting with Billary Clinton on an airport tarmac which was very inappropriate given the "investigation" of his bitch wife.
Am I wrong here?
Wonder if the MSM will report this on the nightly news?
If the culprits are Democrats....they will die of old age long before they ever go to prison.
Trump supporters, on the other hand, are to be committed immediately, without benefit of trial and for indefinite “criminal” activity.
So, all of this kabuki and drip-drip-drip because the “investigators” and the “prosecutors” are afraid to call a spade, a “spade.”
So called journalists unwilling to report about the naked emperor parading down the street.
The entire DC legal apparatus and media are hiding in the weeds hoping the time, gravity, or alcohol will resolve the situation.
Sad day.
The 5th of Never. They're Democrats, the protected class.
Hillary will not live that long
1. Her health is bad
2. She has the goods on BHO and his ilk and will give up anything. She a liability
3 Suicide would be acceptable or even a heart attack.
The shiite’s getting deep................or higher................
In a just world they would already be .................................................... executed....................
After the meeting of the 2 Snakes on the Plane ?
No, but they will tell you all about the stars in the College Admissions scandal.....................and the latest on Jussie Smollett..................
We always did....................
Keep dreaming.
