Clinton is a Criminal - But She Gets a Pass

Hillary gets a pass on her pay-to-play shenanigans

By Post Editorial Board

August 11, 2016

Looks like Hillary Clinton’s getting another pass: The Justice Department reportedly declined to probe the cozy ties and collaboration between the State Department and her family foundation.
That, despite the fact that several FBI field offices were alarmed by what they were finding and pushed Justice to start a probe, CNN reports. DOJ claimed there was insufficient evidence.
Maybe that’s true. Or maybe officials — Attorney General Loretta Lynch, in particular — feared too much incriminating evidence might be unearthed, harming Clinton’s bid for the White House. Or that she’d finally be held accountable for some of her pay-to-play shenanigans.
FBI Director James Comey did something similar when he gave Hillary a pass on her personal e-mails.
But evidence continues to leak out anyway. And it’s proving Clinton never had any intention of honoring her agreement not to mix State and foundation business.
