Loretta Lynch used fake name as attorney general

A prominent Washington watchdog is asking just how many Obama administration officials hid behind fake names while they worked for the U.S. government, after discovering that Loretta Lynch sometimes wasn’t Loretta Lynch – for email purposes – while she was attorney general.

She was Elizabeth Carlisle.

Judicial Watch said Lynch’s actions illustrate “how government hides information from the American public.”

The group was pursuing information about the United Nations’ questionable Strong Cities Network when senior counsel Vanessa Brinkman of the Department of Justice responded with some information and an explanation.
