Former President Bill Clinton was “offended” by the widespread criticism of his June 2016 tarmac meeting with then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch days before the FBI decided it would not recommend criminal charges against his wife, he told the Justice Department’s inspector general.

“I thought you know, I don’t know whether I’m more offended that they think I’m crooked or that they think I’m stupid,” Clinton told investigators, according to the report released Thursday by Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz.

The long-awaited report was released Thursday afternoon, spanning nearly 600 pages and scrutinizing the actions of numerous figures who played a key role in the Justice Department and FBI's investigation. It is the product of an 18-month review, incorporating dozens of witness interviews and hundreds of thousands of documents.

n the report, Horowitz criticized Lynch’s infamous meeting with Clinton on the Arizona tarmac, calling it “an error in judgment" as the Justice Department was investigating then-Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton for her email practices while serving as secretary of state.

“Although we found no evidence that Lynch and former President Clinton discussed the [Clinton email] investigation or engaged in other inappropriate discussion during their tarmac meeting, we also found that Lynch’s failure to recognize the appearance problem created by former President Clinton’s visit and to take action to cut the visit short was an error in judgment,” the report states.

Lynch has claimed she and Clinton spoke of only “innocuous things” during their tarmac meeting, calling it a “chance encounter.”

But it fueled Republican complaints that Lynch had met with the husband of an investigation subject improperly, just days before the probe into her personal email server was completed with no charges filed.

Ex-FBI director James Comey has publicly taken issue with the meeting, saying it was a “deciding factor” in his decision to act alone to update the public on the status of the Clinton probe.

Newsflash Bill, they have always thought you were both crooked and stupid. You committed the crime of perjury. Idiot.

It was poor judgment


especially seeing the reaction to lying about an affair (under oath)...

they both should have known to use more discretion, when a politician commits a crime, smart politicians need to commit crimes that are able to be 'settled' with money instead of brought to light or found 'guilty' of anything. Its not guarantee that bias wont paint them as guilty anyway, but it keeps away the opportunity for anyone to really 'prove' anything.

He was offended because Monica didn't bring him the report

It offends me that he is offended.

It offends me that our culture pretends to care about 'lies' and politicians, when they really only care about the 'lies' of the other side.

and it offends me how overused the word 'lie' is in politics ...

The only difference between Clinton
and a sack of feces, is the sack.


Bill deserves to be offended.

Bill Clinton, the poster child for corrupt and immoral politician and a pathetic case for a man.

Im in the camp of who cares if Bill is offended.

I say good and a big F U to Bill.

haaa, poster child for immoral ... could actually be a tie with Trump ...

I mean if lies and deception and vulgarity are included AS WELL as infidelity.

really? When Did trump make an intern clean his noodle in the white house?... Do any democrats think before the speak?

Well, he groped beauty contestants, and met up with prostitutes, and fantasized about his daughter and been attracted to 12 year old Paris ...lol

but Im sure theres another description for Trump's behaviors.

really ? how has Trump received any blow jobs in the White house?

has trump during his brief presidency has been accused of groping women ?

Bill Clinton assorted affairs goes back to 1978 when he was first Governor.

Trump has a history too as a private citizen

So are we really comparing the two?

HAAAAA,, are blow jobs in a white house the only thing that classifies as 'immoral' ... the charge was about how 'immoral' Clinton was with an affair... correct?

and is "immoral" further classified by whether someone is a private citizen or in public office? I wasnt aware of the distinction.

Im comparing 'immoral' with 'immoral'

nobody here has said Trump isnt immoral, its public knowledge he has cheated on all of his wives

duh.


Has he done it since he has been president?

sometimes ...



Disclaimer: I dont agree with the deportation statement. But I'll be danged if the rest of the sentiment doesnt repeatedly play out in politics discussions.

of course Trump haters cant defend their position and has to make up ****.

good thing there are no Trump 'haters' here.

I heard this great line from a movie once, its perfect for this occasion

not only does your post insults my intelligence it quite possibly insults your ignorance.

You are a trump hater, plain and simple so please dont pretend or insult our intelligence.

how does ignorance get insulted? .... n/m

I dont 'hate' anyone. I make observations about what people do and say. BIG difference.

So what observations did you make of Bill Clinton words and actions?

since the topic is about Billy Boy
