Washington, Dec. 3: US President Donald Trump today criticised the FBI and department of justice, claiming that his former national security adviser Michael Flynn is being held to a higher standard than the ex- secretary of state Hillary Clinton was during the probe into her private email server.

In a series of tweets, Mr Trump said that “nothing happened” to Hillary who lied many times to the Federal Bureau of Investigat­ion ( FBI) while General Flynn lied to the agency and his life is destroyed.

Mr Trump’s tweets came a day after Flynn pleaded guilty before a US court on the charges of lying to the FBI on his connection

James Comey testified under oath before a Senate panel, a day after Michael Flynn’s firing, Donald Trump asked him to drop an investigat­ion into the former national security advisor After the White House learned through the justice department that Mr Flynn lied about discussing sanctions with the Russian ambassador, Mr Trump still waited 18 days to fire him

So General Flynn lies to the FBI and his life is destroyed, while Crooked Hillary Clinton, on that now famous FBI holiday ' interrogat­ion' with no swearing in and no recording, lies many times... And nothing happens to her? Rigged system

with the Ambassador.

“So General Flynn lies to the FBI and his life is destroyed, while Crooked Hillary Clinton, on that now famous FBI holiday ‘ interrogat­ion’ with no swearing in and no recording, lies many times... And nothing happens to her? Rigged system, or just a double standard?” Mr Trump tweeted.

In another tweet, he said many people in the country are asking what the “Justice” Department is going to do about the fact that totally Crooked Hillary, after receiving a subpoena from the United States Congress, deleted and “acid washed” 33,000 Emails?

“No justice!” he said. Ms Hillary had been accused of setting up an email server at her home in Chappaqua in New York before becoming secretary if state and using it for all work and personal emails during her four years in office. — PTI
