Comey, Clinton and Lynch Should Face Criminal Investigations, Republican Lawmakers Write to Sessions, FBI
[Newsweek]

A group of Republican lawmakers made a direct request Wednesday for the FBI and Attorney General Jeff Sessions to open criminal investigations into former FBI director James Comey, former secretary of state Hillary Clinton, and others for bias against Trump or favoritism toward Clinton.

The letter came after Comey began a promotional tour for his new book, A Higher Loyalty. In the book, Comey said he asked to speak directly with President Barack Obama at the end of his tenure to “take the opportunity to thank you and tell you how much I’m going to miss you,” and added, “I dread the next four years, but in some ways, I feel more pressure to stay now.”

The 11 Congressmen and women who signed the memo to United States Attorney General Jeff Sessions, FBI director Christopher Wray and United States attorney for the district of Utah John Huber asked for criminal investigations to be opened on Comey, Clinton, former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, former acting director of the FBI Andrew McCabe as well as FBI agents Peter Strzok and FBI counsel Lisa Page.

“We are especially mindful of the dissimilar degrees of zealousness that has marked the investigations into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the presidential campaign of Donald Trump, respectively,” the letter read. “Because we believe that those in positions of high authority should be treated the same as every other American, we want to be sure that the potential violations of law outlined below are vetted appropriately.”

Clinton has been the subject of multiple congressional and FBI investigations, but the letter claimed that she should face investigation because a lawyer who worked for her campaign partially financed the Steele dossier.

Clinton spokesperson Nick Merrill called the letter pathetic. “House Republicans have seen the numbers and are running scared as we head into midterm season. They should focus on working for the people they are asking to reelect them, not do Trump’s bidding,” he said in a statement.

The letter was signed by Representatives Ron DeSantis, Andy Biggs, Dave Brat, Jeff Duncan, Matt Gaetz, Paul Gosar, Andy Harris, Jody Hice, Todd Rokita, Claudia Tenney and Ted Yoho.

”Don't miss: Great Barrier Reef: Can Iconic Coral System Survive After Heatwave Kills One-Third?”

Well, it depends if people takes the climate change seriously or not. The Paris Agreement is a step in the right direction.

Most of the Republicans that wrote that letter are Teabaggers that will disappear after Dems control redistricting in 2020.

They're all almost as dumb as Hot Rod is.

Half of the barrier reef has died and the best we can do is probably a 2 degree rise in global temperatures form man-made sources. Shit can really hit the fan if we have a large seismic event like the super volcanoes that helped cause the extinction of dinosaurs.

The sad thing is, mouthbreather cuckservatives will scream about how the earth is cooling in the first few years after a volcano erupts due to the light being reflected off the dust clouds. The CO2 however stays and in the end contributes to warming.

All we need is for Yellowstone Park to erupt.
