MAYBE BERNIE SANDERS WAS RIGHT

by Bob Walsh

Not about any of his platform, about being tired of hearing of Hillary's email problems. It seems the D O J Inspector General is preparing to investigate the FBI in how the situation was handled with special emphasis on the timing of the director's statement concerning the matter. Regular readers will no doubt remember that the director released a public statement excoriating Hillary, but declaring that they would not pursue charges against her as it was unlikely to be successful and a reasonable prosecutor would not do so. Then, a few days before the election, he send a letter to senior members of congress, which was almost instantly leaked, asserting that they were taking another look at some aspects of the email scandal.

It's time to either fish or cut bait. I hope (and actually expect) that within 30 days of Trump taking office the DOJ will decide to either move or let it slide, and then do either one or the other.
