Conway: 'We're not trying to interfere' in FBI investigation

Source: The Hill



BY MEGAN KELLER - 09/30/18 09:45 AM EDT

White House counselor Kellyane Conway said Sunday that the Trump administration is not going to interfere in the FBI investigation into sexual misconduct allegations leveled against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

"We're not trying to interfere," Conway said of the White House on CNN's "State of the Union."

"The White House is not getting involved in the FBI investigation in that way," Conway said when asked if the president had directed the FBI to look only at some of the women accusing Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct.

She added that the president "very much respects the independence" of the FBI.

They are. They've done a lot of things to interrupt all investigations into them, and claiming the opposite now shows this is organized , and corrupt.

Except that the White House has told the FBI not to talk to Julie Swetnick.

It's just that everything that they do is interfering. But, they're not trying. Just works out that way.

"Two faced" needs a new definition.

What next...Shitler respects the media that is not Fox?

The NYT is prospering like never before!

We have fucking tape!

all the way.

Anyone know why Truth Betold did make the party?

WH has fully engaged in obstruction by limiting an investigation.

Let's compare it to non-affluenza people.

1) I kill the man, but the woman survives [see later].
2) Security video has me putting the man in my car and driving off. [blood evidence in car]
3) The woman recovers and comes forward.
4) Buy I, the woman's scorned lover, tells law enforcement they can not investigate my car.

In the end #4 will die off quicker than the man did.
