Blind Justice, The Rule of Law, Equal Treatment — get real

Bulletin from Gary Bauer at Campaign for Working Families . . . dateline Washington D.C.    . .  .

News broke yesterday that the FBI had arrested Hillary Clinton. Among other things, Mrs. Clinton was charged with “unauthorized removal and retention of classified materials” after officials raided her home and discovered “documents and digital information stored on various devices that contained highly classified information.”

Oops!

That story isn’t about Hillary, but former NSA contractor Harold Thomas Martin III of Glen Burnie, Maryland.

Unfortunately for Mr. Martin, his last name is not Clinton, and I’m sure there will be plenty of “reasonable prosecutors” willing to press the case against him.

As Governor Pence rightly noted in Monday night’s debate, if his son had handled classified information the way Hillary did, the Marines would have court-martialed him. Pence is right. Just ask Marine Maj. Jason C. Brezler. He was drummed out for just ONE email.

But in the past few days new details have emerged about the FBI’s cover-up — I mean investigation — of Mrs. Clinton’s national security scandal. You might want to sit down for this. . .

As part of the many immunity agreements that Obama’s so-called Justice Department agreed to in the course of this investigation, it evidently agreed to destroy laptops that belonged to former Clinton Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills and ex-campaign staffer Heather Samuelson. Moreover, the FBI also agreed to only examine documents that were dated between June 1, 2014 and Feb. 1, 2015.

That is no way to conduct an investigation. If the FBI wanted to retrieve these laptops with classified information on them, it should have gotten a warrant and raided Mills’ and Samuelson’s homes, just like it did to Mr. Martin.

Why would the FBI agree to limit what it could look at? And when did the FBI get into the business of destroying evidence? Clearly, the Justice Department was using the FBI to cover-up Hillary’s corruption.

Needless to say, congressional leaders are furious. This information was under subpoena by key committees. Four committee chairmen sent a letter to Attorney General Loretta Lynch demanding explanations. They should be demanding her resignation, along with FBI Director James Comey’s.

justice_peekingFriends, as our Senior Editor DLH has often exclaimed, our country is post rule of law.  It is abundantly clear that Lady Justice at the Obama Justice Department is blatant in peeking under the fold to avoid prosecuting the favored.  The duplicity reported in Gary Bauer’s report above is an example of how law does not apply to the Clintons or Obama’s political appointees, but does to others.

However we can sort of rejoice that there is prosecution for similar crimes, even if  less egregious than what Hillary Clinton and Huma Abedine and Cheryl Mills and more have done, risking national security, and lying to cover it up.   It is a small favor to so blatantly demonstrate duplicity, well for those that are listening.  But we know the dominant media will ignore the implications, so relatively few will be aware.

Such an all-too-common revelation about the Obama administration ignoring the law as regards the favored, is on top of the information in recent days that the FBI agreed to destroy laptops of interviewees in their “investigation” of   Hillary Clinton e-mail server scandal and not make use of information after a certain date.  The “side agreement” was in spite of the real possibility, if not probability, that the information would be relevant to the investigation. And it was on top of grants of immunity to individuals being interviewed.

Former federal prosecuting attorney Andrew McCarthy, writing at National Review is incredulous. His article well explains the implications.

But preventing  justice as regards Hillary’s e-mail scandal and coverup is not enough. Obama’s Justice Department is said to have moved to decrease the likelihood of more revelations related to the Benghazi debacle and possible corruption.   Read about it at this link:   Justice Department drops charges in case that could have exposed Hillary’s Benghazi/gun running actions
