Are some people above the law?

FBI Director Comey told Congress that Hillary was “extremely careless” and “negligent.” He said she lied about classified information on her private server (but not to the FBI). And he said her lawyers wiped emails from her server. Then he let her off the hook.

Attorney General Loretta Lynch, uninfluenced by her surprise meeting with Bill Clinton, proclaimed the case closed.

Above The Law

Paul Mirengoff at Powerline thinks Comey was protecting the will of the people. Democratic voters didn’t care about her emails when they nominated her for president.

But Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan says, “Americans’ trust in their government is at an all-time low.”

Considering police killings of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile, followed by the murder of five police officers in Dallas, Congressman Jordan might have a point.
