“If the United States can decide that FIFA is a scandal, why is no one going after the Clinton Foundation which is domiciled in the United States, as FIFA is not?” he asked.

Loretta to the rescue.

How about indicting old Hastert’s for lying to the FBI, when Hillary has lied to several committees of Congress for decades?

Conniving Hillary set up her own private State Dept outside the US gov’t......and even used a private server to conduct govt business. Now it seems that Obama did not know about this.

<><> He did not know that Hillary signed off on Bill's lucrative deals w/ foreign govts?

<><> Obama did not know that Bill and Hill were jerking around major areas of US foreign policy?

<><> He did not know Adedin's bgrnd?

<><> He did not know Hillary gave her aide Huma Abedin special status---to have an outside job while working at State.

<><> Obama did not know Abedin's side jobs as a "private consultant" worked for a company that empoloyed Bill Clinton?

<><> He did not know her aide, Huma Abedin, was using Hillary's "private" eamil server?

<><> Obama knew zilch about all of it?

==============================================

Oh, please...gimme a frickin' break. Anybody believes that, I gotta bridge I can sell 'em....real cheap...in Brooklyn.

The real money isn’t in the soccer games at all

As with many professional sports, the money isn’t in the game itself. It’s in the eyeballs it gathers, which can be used as leverage for hefty broadcasting contracts and marketing deals.

From 2007 to 2010, FIFA’s total revenues were $4.189 billion—and 83 percent of that ($3.480 billion) came from the sale of television and marketing rights for the 2010 World Cup. From 2011 to 2014, FIFA’s total revenue was $5.718 billion—and 70% of that ($4.008 billion) was from the sale of television and marketing rights to the 2014 World Cup.

Who is not to say that with the FIFA investigation, the DOJ gets into the Clinton Foundation due to the 500K donation FIFA made?
