Sen. Chuck Grassley: FBI Could Leak Clinton Email Investigation
… The GOP seems to be getting (you fill in the blank) by Urging/suggesting/indirectly asking the FBI to Illegally leak Clinton Email Investigation information …
"….. In a display of utter desperation, Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) indirectly encouraged someone at the FBI to illegally leak the details of the Hillary Clinton email investigation ……
Des Moines Register reports:
Grassley, Iowa’s senior senator and chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said an anonymous and unauthorized release of FBI investigative materials could result if officials at the agency believed prosecution of Clinton was stymied for political reasons. “Is there going to be political interference? If there’s enough evidence to prosecute, will there be political interference?”
Grassley wondered aloud during a breakfast meeting with the Des Moines A.M. Rotary club on Friday. “And if there’s political interference, then I assume that somebody in the FBI is going to leak these reports and it’s either going to have an effect politically or it’s going to lead to prosecution if there’s enough evidence.” ………
…. When asked by Radio Iowa reporter O. Kay Henderson after the breakfast if he was suggesting the FBI should leak investigative findings, Grassley expounded on his comment……….
……. “I wouldn’t be encouraging it because if it’s a violation of law, I can’t be encouraging a violation of law,” he said. “This is kind of my own opinion, this is something I’ve heard.” ………
Grassley: FBI could leak Clinton email investigation
"……………. Sen. Grassley was encouraging a Republican at the FBI to the leak the details of the investigation in an attempt to sink Hillary Clinton. Grassley wouldn’t overtly tell the FBI to leak because that would be against the law. What he did do was openly and publicly ponder the hypothetical of a potential FBI leak.

Republicans Get Sleazy By Urging The FBI To Illegally Leak Clinton Email Investigation
Grassley never said that what he was suggesting was against the law. But Grassley in answer to reporters question admit that he was discussing a leak that would be illegal ……………. or in some minds a "dog-whistle" like hint/suggestion
Grassley was spreading a favorite conspiracy theory of GOP……..President Obama is going to interfere and delay the release of the results of the investigation until after the election…………..
but never seems to have crossed their minds that Hillary Clinton might not have done anything wrong………… and President Obama did not have his fingers in the pie...............NO........of course not
However some say if Trump was her opponent “She could/would beat him from the confines of a prison cell’
