Justice?

…“Please explain how sending billions of dollars in cash to the world’s foremost state sponsor of terrorism is in our country’s best interest,” the Senator and Congressman asked AG Lynch.

Lynch decided not to answer them at all.…

“It is frankly unacceptable that your department refuses to answer straightforward questions from the people’s elected representatives in Congress about an important national security issue,” they wrote to Lynch. “Your staff failed to answer any of our questions, and instead provided a copy of public testimony and a lecture about the sensitivity of information associated with this issue.”

“As the United States’ chief law enforcement officer, it is outrageous that you would essentially plead the Fifth and refuse to respond to inquiries regarding your role in providing cash to the world’s foremost state sponsor of terrorism,” Rubio and Pompeo wrote.…

Gates of Vienna Newsfeed

The FBI has reopened its investigation of Hillary Clinton’s misuse of classified emails, throwing her campaign into disarray. New evidence about her emails emerged when the Bureau started its investigation of the serial sexter Anthony Weiner, Huma Abedin’s estranged husband. The tabloids have now dusted off their Weiner quips and recycled them. The wags at The New York Post won the coveted Bodissey Prize for their boffo headline: “Dickileaks: FBI Reopens E-Mail Case — STROKING GUN Weiner sext probe found dirt on Hill”.

The last week of the campaign is shaping up to be the most entertaining yet.…

Scott Adams, who’s called this election season with amazing accuracy, has written what may be his most important post to date. In it, he calls out the bullies that populate the Clinton camp. Unsurprisingly, Adams has lots of stories about bullying from the Left, including car keying, sign stealing, public shaming, and even job loss. But that’s business as usual on the Left. This is what really gets Adams’ goat…

…Approaching the 2016 Primary season, the state of California took illegal and unconstitutional action in direct violation with Federal Election Laws by enacting Assembly Bill 1461… California created a circumstance in which it allows illegal aliens to vote in the 2016 elections… the nation cannot rely upon the validity of California votes. By this action, California has disqualified California election results from the 2016 elections and California votes and electors cannot be legally or ethically counted in the 2016 election, or until such time that California election laws are no longer in violation of Federal Election laws and the U.S. Constitution.…

Would be nice if this could be enforced. Alas…
