Tom Fitton: I Wish Loretta Lynch’s Testimony Had Not Been Behind Closed Doors

‘I would have hoped they would have asked about whether the Justice Department was abused in terms of protecting Hillary Clinton and allowing this meeting to take place’

RUSH EXCERPT:

FITTON: ">> I don’t. I wish it weren’t behind closed doors. I’m sure there will be leaks about some of the testimony. I mean, the category of information would have been presumably about whether they were properly surveying and spying on trump — the team trump operation when he was running for president. Maybe even after he was elected president. Also, what about unmaskings? Where they were surveying and gathering intelligence on foreign nationals. And then on deleting the names of Americans picked up in those conversations and sharing them widely within the Obama Administration. Was she aware of that? Evidently it was increasing during this election year. And then going back to the tarmac meeting. I would have hoped they would have asked about whether the justice Department was abused in terms of protecting Hillary Clinton and allowing this meeting to take place and Director Comey had suggested there were other things that the Justice Department was doing that suggested they couldn’t be trusted toot least publicly handle the Clinton matter. The problem for the Obama Administration and those trying to go after the trump Administration is they can’t have it both ways. They can’t say this justice Department was doing the right thing on the Russian collusion issue with entrepreneurship and incoming Trump campaign and say they were doing the right thing with Hillary Clinton at the same time. I don’t buy it no one else buys it. So I don’t see how can you separate the two."
