My Most Sincere Thanks To The Republicans

Once again, I’m forced to tender my most sincere thanks! to the Republican Party.

A Justice Department inquiry launched more than two years ago to mollify conservatives clamoring for more investigations of Hillary Clinton has effectively ended with no tangible results, and current and former law enforcement officials said they never expected the effort to produce much of anything.

John Huber, the U.S. attorney in Utah, was tapped in November 2017 by then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions to look into concerns raised by President Trump and his allies in Congress that the FBI had not fully pursued cases of possible corruption at the Clinton Foundation and during Clinton’s time as secretary of state, when the U.S. government decided not to block the sale of a company called Uranium One.

As a part of his review, Huber examined documents and conferred with federal law enforcement officials in Little Rock who were handling a meandering probe into the Clinton Foundation, people familiar with the matter said. Current and former officials said that Huber has largely finished and found nothing worth pursuing — though the assignment has not formally ended and no official notice has been sent to the Justice Department or to lawmakers, these people said. [WaPo]

Or, in other words, “Crooked” Hillary Clinton is anything but that. This is, what, the eighth or ninth hostile probe into her tenure as Secretary of State that has come up empty?

The obvious interpretation: Clinton has been a bugaboo of the conservatives for no better reason than she was, and is, the spouse of President Bill Clinton (D-AR), the politician who so humiliated Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-GA) and so many other Republicans.

Every time another Republican-backed investigation fails, it’s just another proof that Clinton was, and is, clean. She may be a crappy campaigner, but, apparently, she was clean as a campaigner and a clean Secretary of State.

Just builds confirmation that my vote for Clinton in 2016 wasn’t so much The lesser of two evils as The right thing to do.
