[Exposed] Obama blocking Hillary investigation

obama
For months President Barack Obama’s administration has been maneuvering to thwart an investigation into Hillary Clinton’s handling of potentially classified emails while secretary of state.
Now, administration officials have just made their most public attempt yet to keep the American people from learning the truth and to keep Clinton from being held accountable.
Just last month, Federal District Court Judge Emmet Sullivan granted the consumer watchdog group Judicial Watch permission to conduct “limited discovery” into why Clinton used a private email server at her New York home while serving as the nation’s top diplomat.
In his ruling, which paved the way for Clinton and her top aides to face questioning under oath, Sullivan said there was evidence that the government had acted in bad faith.

And it looks like they’re not done acting in bad faith. Because the State Department is now desperately trying to prevent the inquiry from moving forward.
Obama’s administration lawyers — working for the State Department — have asked a federal judge to severely restrict the kinds of information Judicial Watch could ask about or learn. In fact, the State Department is trying to block any questions about the email setup from being asked at all.
Topics the government asked to be off limits include the “employment status of a single employee; the storage, handling, transmission, or protection of classified information, including cybersecurity issues; and questions about any pending investigations.”
While the FBI is also currently investigating Clinton’s use of private email, the constant stalling techniques have the fingerprints of Obama and the Democratic machine all over them. They’re desperate to prevent any more bombshell findings — or criminal charges — until after the November election.

Of course, this isn’t the first time the Obama administration’s involvement in the Clinton email scandal has been scrutinized. The Horn News reported last month that critics have accused the Obama administration of all sorts of nasty tricks like concealing secret Clinton indictments, hiding nearly 100,000 Clinton emails and of hindering the FBI investigation.
