Clintons Hit with Bad News as Judge Issues Order on Criminal Investigation of Their Foundation

A U.S. tax court judge has ordered the Internal Revenue Service to disclose if it criminally investigated the Clinton Foundation.

This ruling was part of an ongoing case involving whistleblowers who have long alleged wrongdoing on the part of the charity that bears the name of former President Bill Clinton and his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Judge David Gustafson pointed to a “gap” in IRS records and said that the agency’s claim to have never criminally investigated the Clintons’ charity “was not supported by the administrative record and thus constituted an abuse of discretion.”

Although most of the details of the case involving the Clinton Foundation and two whistleblowers, Lawrence W. Doyle and John F. Moynihan, have remained sealed, Gustafson authorized the release of his April 22 ruling, which remanded the case back to the IRS Whistleblower Office, to investigative reporter John Solomon’s outlet Just the News.

“The WO must further investigate to determine whether CI [criminal investigative division] proceeded with an investigation based on petitioners’ information and collected proceeds,” the ruling stated. “It seems clear we should remand the case to the WO so that it can explore this gap.”

Just the News noted that the judge also declined Doyle and Moynihan’s request to accept a deposition from an Arkansas state official or to compel discovery in the case. Gustafson determined that to do so would have been “outside the scope of proper discovery” and cast cold water on any hopes of a revelatory trial.

Bubba was being thrown under the bus by the Deep State Media about 18-24 months ago, but he is of such negligible importance now, he isn’t in the news. A lot of it revolves around how they can play it into continuing persecution of The Donald. I suppose it really is a matter of how long peoples’ attention can remain focused. The problem is there ins’t a 1984 Goldberg, an official bad-guy, other than Trump. So there may be continuing efforts to shield the Klinton Krime Klan. But it’s really old news, the big news is how the Oligarchs are going to persecute Trump’s base.

The irony of having a Clinton judicial ruling on a day that taxes are due—May 17th.

Just seems funny to me. :)

The Clintons are a threat to the Obama/Biden Communist Party.

Just like the sexual harassment claims against Cuomo (another threat), this will be dropped in return for fealty to the party and they abandon all desires for increasing their personal power by seeking office.

Either they are trying to torpedo Hillary or sanitize her record.

I do think that the Clinton’s have gotten away with hell because Jesus wants to have the honors.

It goes nowhere, and the judge better get someone else to start his car.
