Will Hillary get away with her role in Russian collusion scam?
Hillary Clinton appears to be off the hook in terms of special counsel John Durham's criminal inquiry, according to one House Judiciary Committee Republican.
In the view of Rep. Darrell Issa, the politically charged review into the origins and conduct of the Russia investigation has taken too long for there to be full accountability. He specifically name-dropped Clinton, whose 2016 presidential campaign and lawyers helped foster the specter of collusion between her rival, former President Donald Trump, and the Kremlin, as evidence has shown in the years of investigations that have followed.
"'Justice delayed is justice denied' is not some sort of a trite statement. It's very true," Issa told journalist Sharyl Attkisson in a recent interview for her Full Measure program.
Issa, a California Republican who is part of the judiciary panel that oversees the Justice Department, then looked ahead to what is expected to be a report released by Durham, whenever the prosecutor finishes his investigation — an endpoint that could be months away.
"Anything that comes out of the Durham report," Issa said before stopping to scoff and shake his head. "It could lynch Hillary Clinton, and it wouldn't change a thing."
The congressman bemoaned how even if the truth is reached eventually, at some point, the opportunity to bring people to justice would reach its expiration date.
...
I think Issa is talking about the statute of limitations that requires cases to be brought in a reasonable time period. However, there should be no statute of limitations on the political consequences of her actions and if she runs again her credibility will be challenged at every stop. It looks like Durham will continue to bring cases against those who participated in the scam. Some of them might decide to do a plea bargain that would include testimony against those who pushed them to participate.
