Watchdog Group Seeks Investigation into Loretta Lynch’s Meeting with Bill Clinton


Loretta Lynch has long been accused of bias toward Hillary Clinton.

A meeting this week between Attorney General Loretta Lynch and former President Bill Clinton is creating headaches for Hillary Clinton’s campaign.

Lynch and Bill Clinton met privately in Phoenix Monday after the two realized they were on the same tarmac, an aide to the former president said. The encounter took place ahead of the public release Tuesday morning of the House Benghazi Committee’s report on the 2012 attack on a U.S. consulate in Libya.
The meeting is raising questions about whether the independence of the Justice Department, which is conducting an investigation of Hillary Clinton’s private email server, might have been compromised.
The meeting has now prompted outside groups to launch a new investigation into Loretta Lynch.

Judicial Watch is asking the Justice Department’s inspector general to open an investigation into whether Attorney General Loretta Lynch violated ethics rules by meeting secretly with Bill Clinton this week while his wife is the subject of an FBI investigation.

The conservative watchdog group also noted in a letter to the IG that if recent reports are true, the former president himself may be the center of a Justice Department probe into his family charity, the Clinton Foundation.
