New twist in Clinton scandal; Comey — and Lynch — back…


In the event that you thought the adventure of previous FBI Director James Comey was at last finished, reconsider.
After making waves in work that ordinarily doesn’t create features, Comey is experiencing harsh criticism indeed — this time after news broke that he may have ordained the Clinton email examination before hearing all the proof.
Up to this point, Comey has possessed the capacity to escape the greater part of his self-delivered wounds without an excessive number of results.
While he lost his job as FBI executive, he presently can’t seem to go under examination himself, or face any potential criminal outcomes.
Maybe considerably more bizarre, his expulsion because of Donald Trump may have made him a saint of the liberal reason, setting him up for future triumphs.
Obviously, not every person is fulfilled that Comey is by all accounts escaping with just minor wounds. Truth be told, one lobbyist attorney has plans to hit Comey where it might wind up harming the most.
From the Washington Times:
A crusading lawyer filed a bar grievance this week accusing former FBI Director James Comey of lying to Congress and destroying potential evidence in the Clinton email scandal, in a process that could end up costing him his law license.
Ty Clevenger filed the grievance in New York, where Mr. Comey was a former U.S. attorney and is licensed to practice law.
Mr. Clevenger said Mr. Comey’s testimony to Congress that he did not predetermine the outcome of the FBI’s probe into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is belied by revelations this week that he in fact started drafting an exoneration months before even speaking with Mrs. Clinton.
“Insofar as Mr. Comey gave materially false testimony to Congress, it appears that he violated Rules 1.0(w), 3.3(a)(1), and 8.4 of the New York Rules of Professional Conduct,” Mr. Clevenger wrote.
In addition to Comey, Clevenger is also taking action against former Attorney General Loretta Lynch:
[Clevenger] also asked to renew grievances in New York against former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, saying Mr. Comey’s claim that she tried to pressure him to downplay the Clinton probe should subject her to scrutiny.
While Trump’s expulsion of Comey drew sharp feedback, prove keeps on mounting that the president made the right move.
As the leader of the FBI, Comey was in charge of guaranteeing our country’s best investigative office keeps up the trust of the American individuals.
In any case, after finished a time of bungles and lies, America’s trust in the FBI started to suffocate under Comey’s authority.
With news proceeding to reveal a negative insight into Comey’s lead, it ought to be a help to numerous Americans he never again holds a place of energy in the administration. Shockingly better, he may not hold his capacity to specialize in legal matters for any longer, either.

How Trump’s Allies Fanned an Ember of Controversy Into Flames of Outrage

Imahe
WASHINGTON — The release of the memo mattered less than #releasethememo. After weeks of buildup, the three-and-a-half-page document about alleged F.B.I. abuses during the 2016 presidential campaign made public on Friday was broadly greeted with criticism, including by some Republicans. They said it cherry-picked information, made false assertions and was overly focused on an obscure, low-level Trump campaign adviser, Carter Page. It didn’t live up to the hype. But the campaign, captured in the hashtag #releasethememo, which was trending on Twitter for days, may have a far more significant impact than the memo’s contents. It was a choreographed effort by House Republicans and top White House officials to push a highly contentious theme — that the F.B.I. and the Justice Department abused their powers to spy on the Trump campaign, and relied on dodgy information from a former British spy paid by Democratic operatives. What began as an ember more than two weeks ago was fanned in
