Agents quietly working with Utah prosecutors to make case in DOJ absence

by John Solomon

FBI agents working alongside Utah state prosecutors in a wide-ranging corruption investigation have uncovered accusations of wrongdoing by two of the U.S. Senate’s most prominent figures — Majority Leader Harry Reid and rising Republican Sen. Mike Lee — but the Justice Department has thwarted their bid to launch a full federal investigation.

And by whom or what?

But the Justice Department’s public integrity section — which normally handles corruption cases involving elected figures — rejected FBI agents’ bid to use a federal grand jury and subpoenas to determine whether the accusations are true and whether any federal crimes were committed by state and federal officials.

Ah.  I am assuaged and comforted in knowing that corruption in DC under the Obama Administration is alive and well, and operating — just as Mr Obama claimed — in full, transparent and unvarnished public view for all to see and ignore.
