AG Will Approve FBI Call on Hil’s Emails

Attorney General Loretta Lynch will accept the FBI’s recommendations about whether or not to prosecute Hillary Clinton over her use of a personal email server during her time as secretary of State, the Justice Department will announce Friday. Lynch technically has the power to overrule whatever decisions career prosecutors and the FBI director make about how the case should proceed, but, following revelations of an allegedly unplanned meeting at Phoenix’s Sky Harbor airport between Bill Clinton and Lynch, Lynch has agreed to let the decision—whatever it may be—stand. The Justice Department had reportedly been moving toward the arrangement for months, but bipartisan outrage at the Phoenix meetup has reportedly forced the issue.
