Yesterday White House Spokesman Josh Earnest did his best to dodge questions about Loretta Lynch and the Clintons, and Earnest was back to doing his thing again today:

Got that? The ongoing scandal about Hillary has nothing to do with the president.
Sure. https://t.co/9u93skJ4qf

Not to mention independent of the law. https://t.co/4Z1Z9nVik8

Here’s the beginning of a question Earnest fielded after saying the situation is being “intentionally shielded from any political interference” from the White House:
Moving on to next week, the president will be campaigning with Secretary Clinton on Tuesday…
No word on whether Loretta Lynch will join them.
Obama’s keeping at a distance, but just not too far:
Obama hitting Charlotte for Hillary next week and heads to Warsaw, Poland later in the week for NATO Summit.

Obama’s only campaigning for a candidate under federal investigation whose husband just met privately with his Attorney General. Nothing to see here!
