Circa is reporting that one of the items James Comey told Congress in closed session last week was his confrontation with AG Loretta Lynch about her possible political interference with the Hillary Clinton investigation. Comey even showed Lynch a sensitive document claiming the AG was about to tank the investigation, according to sources who were directly briefed on the testimony.
This confrontation was not related to the one Comey discussed in the public hearing last week where Lynch ordered the FBI Director not to refer to the probe about Clinton’s handling of classified emails as an “investigation” but instead to use the Clinton campaign language and call it a “matter.”
“That concerned me because that language tracked the way the campaign was talking about the FBI’s work and that’s concerning,” Comey testified.
Apparently in multiple private sessions over the last Comey detailed to Congress the elements of a second, later confrontation…
