IS COMEY HILLARY'S KEN STARR?

 It appears that the FBI Directory can't be "handled" as easily as as
the AG (Lynch) and that he puts the country welfare ahead of politics,
much to the chagrin of the Establishment.

On Friday, James Comey,the
director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, acting independently
of Attorney General Loretta Lynch, sent a letter to Congress saying that
the F.B.I. had discovered e-mails that were potentially relevant to the
investigation of Hillary Clinton’s
private server. Coming less than two weeks before the Presidential
election, Comey’s decision to make public new evidence that may raise
additional legal questions about Clinton was contrary to the views of
the Attorney General, according to a well-informed Administration
official. Lynch expressed her preference that Comey follow the
department’s longstanding practice of not commenting on ongoing

investigations, and not taking any action that could influence the outcome of an election, but he said that he felt compelled to do otherwise.



Comey’s
decision is a striking break with the policies of the Department of
Justice, according to current and former federal legal officials.
Comey,who is a Republican appointee of President Obama, has a reputation
for integrity and independence, but his latest action is stirring an
extraordinary level of concern among legal authorities, who see it as
potentially affecting the outcome of the Presidential and congressional
elections.



“You don’t do this,” one former senior Justice
Department official exclaimed. “It’s aberrational. It violates decades
of practice.” The reason, according to the former official, who asked
not to be identified because of ongoing cases involving the department,
“is because it impugns the integrity and reputation of the candidate,
even though there’s no finding by a court, or in this instance even an

indictment.”
