Keep The Source In Mind

I just heard a pundit on TV talk about former deputy attorney general Jamie Gorelick who said that there is a rule that no indictments can be issued within 60 days of an election, so what FBI Director Comey did in reopening the Hillary Clinton criminal investigation was improper.

It's worth keeping in mind just who the source of this supposed information really is.  Jamie Gorelick was indeed the deputy attorney general during the Clinton administration.  Then in the late 1990s, Gorelick was rewarded with the position of vice chairman of Fannie Mae.  She had no experience in banking or mortgages, but she was made the number two person at the biggest mortgage agency/company in the nation.  She resigned six years later after a ten billion dollar accounting scandal at Fannie Mae, an area she supposedly supervised.  Even so, Gorelick was paid just under thirty million dollars for her few years of work at Fannie Mae.  That's five million dollars a year for a part time job, a job that the Clintons got for her.  Does anyone doubt that Gorelick would say or do anything that the Clintons wanted her to say?

If there really is an internal rule of the Justice Department that was broken by Comey, then lets hear about it from someone at the Justice Department, not some political hack who had to resign in disgrace years ago after a scandal and who owes the Clintons for getting her tens of millions of bucks.
