The following day, Monday, April 13, 2015, she set off on a road trip to Iowa, stopping for lunch at Chipotle in Maumee, just outside Toledo, off the @OhioTurnpike.
Well, we know that in Cuyahoga County [ Cleveland ], there was a significant Presidential undervote; people filled out their ballots with their selections, but left President blank.
@CarolLeonnig @byaaroncdavis Thank you for Injustice.
There’s one outstanding issue from the 2016 campaign that has not yet been documented for the historical record, related to norms of @TheJusticeDept.
Please try to report on this, for history:
After Attorney General @AGLynch met @BillClinton
1/
@CarolLeonnig @byaaroncdavis @TheJusticeDept @AGLynch @BillClinton on the tarmac at PHX June 27, 2016, her Deputy @SallyQYates should have insisted that Lynch recuse from the case of @HillaryClinton’s emails.
As you know, recusal is the time-honored remedy for almost any perceived conflict; no need to create ad hoc ‘solutions.’
2/
@CarolLeonnig @byaaroncdavis @TheJusticeDept @AGLynch @BillClinton @SallyQYates @HillaryClinton History has not recorded whether Yates confronted Lynch on this, or what happened or did not happen.
We really need to know.
The supposed ad hoc ‘solution’ Lynch approved allowed @FBI Director @Comey to usurp @TheJusticeDept’s prosecutorial authorities

@dohertytjp @mikenelson586 @FBI I’m reading @CarolLeonnig’s new book Injustice; the focus of my lack of sympathy for @FBI is institutional.
I’m not a security expert, but even I knew from social media by January 4, 2021, that it would be prudent to prepare for the possibility of violence two days later.
1/
@dohertytjp @mikenelson586 @FBI @CarolLeonnig That’s why DC Armory is 1.8 miles from the Capitol, so security personnel could be staged, ready, nearby.
@SpeakerPelosi missed the most obvious lesson from all those Benghazi hearings:
By the time they’re coming over the walls, it is already too late.
It was not a mistake
2/
@dohertytjp @mikenelson586 @FBI @CarolLeonnig @SpeakerPelosi As soon as the mob at the Ellipse crossed 14th Street NW, over a mile from the Capitol, it was time to deploy pre-staged personnel to ensure that the #1A-protected protests remain non-violent.
High-powered security officials chose not to prepare.
@WalshFreedom If a foreign national has a Final Order of Deportation, due process has been completed, even if some concerned citizens may not like it.
If the American people agreed with you, Congress would change the law.
@WalshFreedom Under current law, mere presence in our country, in violation of law, does not eventually qualify anyone to remain permanently, even without a criminal record.
What you are advocating is not current law.
President Trump swore to “faithfully execute” the laws as they are.
@WalshFreedom If the American people agree with you that undocumented foreign nationals who have been in our country for a particular period of time - another amnesty - should be allowed to remain, then Congress would change the law.
You obviously do not believe in the Rule of Law in USA.
