what were Lynch's EXACT words wrt following the recommendation from FBI? because Corey

Lewandowski specifically contradicted Erin Burnett when she said Lynch would follow comey's recs concerning a Hillary prosecution, or lack thereof

he said something like she said she'd follow the recommendations of prosecutors from the JD, NOT what comey said

anybody catch that?

so....what did she say, exactly? I'm looking it up now, but I'm putting my money on the fact that CL is once again lying his ass off

“Late this afternoon, I met with FBI Director James Comey and career prosecutors and agents who conducted the investigation of Secretary Hillary Clinton’s use of a personal email system during her time as Secretary of State. I received and accepted their unanimous recommendation that the thorough, year-long investigation be closed and that no charges be brought against any individuals within the scope of the investigation.”

Attorney General Loretta Lynch will follow whatever recommendation the FBI and prosecutors make on whether to charge Hillary Clinton in connection to an email probe, she said today, tying her announcement to the recent controversial meeting with Bill Clinton that she called “perfectly reasonable” to question.

"I will be accepting their recommendations and their plans for going forward," Lynch said at the Aspen Ideas Festival in Colorado.

6. Loretta Lynch makes it official: No charges in Hillary Clinton email probe

Attorney General Loretta Lynch made official late Wednesday what was widely expected: The Justice Department will not press charges against Hillary Clinton or anyone else as part of its investigation into Clinton's use of private email servers while secretary of State.

The announcement comes the day after FBI Director James Comey said that, while Clinton and State Department employees had been "extremely careless" in handling classified materials, there was no basis for a criminal case.

Lynch had previously said she would accept the recommendation of the FBI and prosecutors in the case and she reiterated that in a brief Wednesday statement.

“Late this afternoon, I met with FBI Director James Comey and career prosecutors and agents who conducted the investigation of Secretary Hillary Clinton’s use of a personal email system during her time as Secretary of State," she said. "I received and accepted their unanimous recommendation that the thorough, year-long investigation be closed and that no charges be brought against any individuals within the scope of the investigation.”
