PORTLAND, Ore. - U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch said on a visit to Portland Thursday she is taking prosecution of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge occupiers "very seriously," adding that "no one is above the law."

Lynch, in Portland to recognize its work in community policing, said more federal charges will be coming against Ammon Bundy and others who took part in the takeover.

Lynch did not provide details on additional charges against the occupiers but said they will follow "very soon" ...

3. Lynch is involved, huh? Obviously I haven't followed

this lately, but my first thought was that this doesn't sound good for them. Hope the message is meant for the Kochs and other anti-government conspirators encouraging this behavior too. Many of them routinely operate a above the law.

4. Lynch is letting the FBI do their thing

with out getting rolled up into it. Notice how another of the Bundy Gang was taken down this morning. Lynch being in Portland is a message sent to the Militia Movement,I am Here and do F--- with me,we are taken you apart person by person. At least this Lady has a pair,more than we can say about Holder.

5. NO ONE is above the law??

(chortle) Since when??

Maybe no plebe is or "no little people" (in the Leona Helmsley sense) are above the law, but to say "no one" is laughable on its face. There are WAY too many patricians in this country who clearly are, for a variety of different reasons.
