Attorney General Loretta Lynch is facing a storm of criticism for her
meeting--however impromptu--with former President Bill Clinton, and it
remains to be seen whether the onslaught will have any impact on her role
as the final arbiter in the FBI's investigation into Hillary Clinton, and
whether she or her staff mishandled classified information through the use
of a private email server while she was Secretary of State.

The watchdog Judicial Watch has called on the Justice Department inspector
general to investigate the meeting between Lynch and Clinton because it
"creates the appearance of a violation of law, ethical standards and good
judgment," according to a release.

Judicial Watch also charged that the meeting "creates the broad public
impression that "'the fix is in.'"

The watchdog has also sued the State Department for the release of records
on Clinton top aide Huma Abedin's employment at State, the Clinton
Foundation and a consultancy. It has been deposing some of Clinton's top
staffers from her tenure as secretary of state, including Abedin this
week.

GOP presumptive nominee Donald Trump called the meeting between Lynch and
Bill Clinton "one of the big stories of this week, of this month, of this
year." He said on the "Mike Gallagher Show" that it was "terrible and
nobody can understand why nothing's happened. And you see a thing like
this and even in terms of judgment, how bad of judgment is it for him or
for her to do this?" Later, in an interview with Sean Hannity that will
air on Fox News Channel Thursday, Trump said he was "flabbergasted" by the
meeting.

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said in a statement that the incident "does
nothing to instill confidence in the American people that her department
can fully and fairly conduct this investigation," and he called on her to
appoint a special counsel "in light of the apparent conflicts of
interest."

And Democrats, too, are concerned about the way the meeting appears.
Former top Obama adviser David Axelrod tweeted that it was "foolish to
create such optics."

Sen. Chris Coons, D-Delaware, said in an interview on CNN that she should
have told the former president, "'Look, I recognize you have a long record
of leadership on fighting crime but this is not the time for us to have
that conversation. After the election is over, I'd welcome your advice.'"

Lynch, for her part, has downplayed the meeting with Clinton.

The meeting occurred around 10:30 p.m. PT. The Attorney General had been
traveling all day -- to Baltimore for an address about youth violence and
gangs, and then to Phoenix to meet with police and top officials to
promote community policing.

Bill Clinton was in Phoenix to do some fundraising, an aide told CBS News.
Clinton also attended a meeting with roughly ten elected officials and
community leaders. According to John Gomez, a vice president of Cartwright
School District who attended the meeting, the group met at the office of a
local law firm for about 45 minutes and discussed Arizona's role in the
general election.

Hillary Clinton's campaign did not respond to a request for more
information about the meeting.

The conversation between the former president and attorney general was,
according to Lynch, "primarily social."

"Actually, while I was landing at the airport, I did see President Clinton
at the Phoenix airport as I was leaving, and he spoke to myself and my
husband on the plane," Lynch told reporters Wednesday. "Our conversation
was a great deal about his grandchildren. It was primarily social and
about our travels. He mentioned the golf he played in Phoenix, and he
mentioned travels he'd had in West Virginia."

An aide to Bill Clinton says that he spotted her on the tarmac, but CBS
News has been told that she was in an unmarked plane. Lynch did, however,
have an advance team on the ground that Clinton may have seen or spoken
to.
