Former US Attorney General Michael Mukasey says President Obama may be guilty of obstruction of justice in the investigation into Hillary Clinton's email.

President Obamas statement that he thought she shouldnt be charged because she didnt intend to violate the law is the real Clinton obstruction because that is a statement by him that this is the way I want that investigation to come out, Mukasey said Tuesday in an interview with FOX Business Network's Maria Bartiromo. He was introducing an element that was not in the statute to know youre violating the law and he was saying that, that was the way he wanted the investigation to end. Obviously the Justice Department picked up on that.

In his testimony last week, former FBI Director James Comey said Obama Attorney General Loretta Lynch asked him to call the Hillary Clinton probe a matter, not an investigation, but Mukasey said thats not breaking the law.

Thats, I think, not obstruction because shes simply playing the same card the Clinton campaign is playing, Mukasey said.

On Tuesday, President Trump said on Twitter thatLynch committed a crime and gave Hillary Clinton a free pass and protection.

Meanwhile Democratic lawmaker Diane Feinstein said she wanted to open an investigation into Loretta Lynchs statement, but Mukasey said calling it a matter is just the tip of the iceberg.
