(Washington)- Congressman Doug Collins of Gainesville is calling the FBI Director to reverse his decision to not file criminal charges in the Hillary Clinton email investigation.
Collins joined other Republican leaders in expressing his discontent over James Comey’s ruling. Collins said in a prepared statement released Tuesday, “In the United States, no one is above the law. Unfortunately, the FBI’s announcement today that indicates that Secretary Clinton is receiving special treatment due to political pressures. Secretary Clinton’s actions were irresponsible and reckless and jeopardize our national security. If another government official did the same thing, they would be charged and thrown in jail,”
Collins said the decision showed the current Administration has become more politicized. Collins further stated, “Secretary Clinton has become untouchable even to the highest levels of law enforcement.”
Perhaps if you were to publicly condemn, for example, the former Republican speaker of the house, Dennis Hastert, for getting off with 15 months in jail for serial child molestation, you and other Republicans would not come across as being quite so politically motivated in your attacks on Hillary’s non-criminal email activities.
