    Huh? What does running have to do with anything? Typical of a dem to suggest politics and criminal investigations are somehow related. It sort of highlights how the false accusations against President Trump were able to start

    Calling it a matter doesn’t cover up anything. Hell she could have stopped it if she wanted.

    Yep...she was trying to say it was a matter and not an investigation in order to impact the 2016 election. Or maybe she didn't and Comey was lying about it...I think that's important to know. I don't want foriegn Govt, or our own Govt putting it's thumb on the scale of our elections...nor do I want former FBI Directors lying to Congress.....

    Not sure why you think it's ok

    Not at all...criminal referrals can come out of oversight hearings...ask Cohen. This was one of the hearings about the FBI/Obama DOJ actions during the 2016 election...one of the Committees taht lead to Mueller being appointed and discovering the false allegations...and now Barr opening up the investigation into the Obama DOJ

    This wasn't a criminal probe...what are you talking about? They can certainly make criminal referrals. They don't have the Constitutional authority to conduct criminal investigations...that is limited to the Executive. Hence the referrals to the DOJ

    They are starting to point fingers at each other because they know the hammer is falling.

    So they weren’t trying to figure out if Comey lied? You said that it was at the heart of the hearing. What was the legislative purpose of who called it a matter?

    Is that why Sessions and Barr haven’t charged her either?

    They didn’t need a cover up, apparently Obama could have ended it at any time right?

    Not a single indictment? You told us 2 years ago Comey leaked and lied. What’s the hold up?

    Well it sorta makes one question the AG's motives if from the start of the investigation she's pulling punches. Also it must matter to them because the "matter" is being disputed

    And that's well and good but disputing Comey's statement obviously mattered to Lynch otherwise she wouldn't have disputed it
