If the remainder of the Inspector General’s report is as bad for Lynch and Comey, we could be seeing them behind bars. It was reported earlier today that ABC News was given a draft of the report that revealed that fired FBI Director Comey went rogue and “defied authority” while at the FBI. A second leak also reports that Obama’s Attorney General Loretta Lynch wanted to hide the Clinton wrongdoing from the American people.

The draft of Horowitz’s wide-ranging report specifically called out Comey for ignoring objections from the Justice Department when he disclosed in a letter to Congress just days before the 2016 presidential election that FBI agents had reopened the Clinton probe, according to sources. Clinton has said that letter doomed her campaign.
Before Comey sent the letter to Congress, at least one senior Justice Department official told the FBI that publicizing the bombshell move so close to an election would violate longstanding department policy, and it would ignore federal guidelines prohibiting the disclosure of information related to an ongoing investigation, ABC News was told.
Remember those emails on Anthony Weiner’s laptop? Well, Loretta Lynch wanted the FBI to hide those from the American people!

REMEMBER THAT COMEY LIED ABOUT THERE BEING ANY DOCUMENTS ABOUT THE TARMAC MEETING BETWEEN CLINTON AND LYNCH:
Comey lied and has been caught in his lie…What next? FOIA request him again. He said there were no tarmac documents but now it turns out there were. Hundreds of documents were just recently turned over… Oops!
“It’s also absurd that there were never, as James Comey said, any documents. He signed a letter saying under penalty of perjury there are no documents relating to the tarmac meeting. Now we know that there are hundreds of them. So there are three possibilities here. Either Comey lied or he didn’t understand the request… Either they’ve lost the documents and they’ve suddenly been found or they lied when they said there were no documents. Or they didn’t understand the request but the request by the way is standard boiler plate that every lawyer is familiar with.”
