[Breitbart] Holistic analysis of the Justice Department (DOJ) and FBI’s interconnected and ostensible investigations of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump amount to "the worst abuse of political power in American history related to elections," according to Tom Del Beccaro.Del Beccaro, an attorney and contributor to Forbes, joined Thursday’s edition of SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Tonight with co-hosts Rebecca Mansour and Joel Pollak to discuss his recently published ‐ and continually updated ‐ timeline of events, entitled "Biased FBI and DOJ Officials Broke the Law and Tried to Decide the Election."
"The DOJ [and] the entire Obama administration wound down the Hillary email crisis in time for her to really run for office and then ramped up the attacks on candidate Trump to stop him from being president," said Del Beccaro.
As president, Barack Obama signaled to his administration officials that Hillary Clinton was not to be meaningfully investigated for her felonious use of a private email system during her tenure as secretary of state, said Del Beccaro.
"The FBI was sort of just going through the motions with Hillary, and it’s about March or April, and suddenly the election heats up, and Obama goes on TV, and he says, with Chris Wallace, basically, that she didn’t intend to do anything [wrong]; she didn’t want to harm us," said Del Beccaro. "That’s irrelevant to the crime she committed of possessing classified information in an insecure environment. So he announces this, and once he does, the DOJ and the FBI then change their speed [of] work and the manner in which they’re working, the things that they’re doing, and between April and June, they exonerate her, and what I mean by that is they change the language in the memo as to whether she was doing something wrong from ’gross negligence’ of a crime to ... ’extreme carelessness.’ That’s irrelevant. That’s not legal language: ’extreme carelessness.’"
Obama’s endorsement of Clinton in May 2016 ‐ while the FBI was ostensibly investigating the former first lady for her handling of classified information and evasion of federal record-keeping laws ‐ suggests the FBI’s running of a "sham investigation" of Clinton’s email conduct, said Del Beccaro.
