It is a must-read article in light of last night's revelation that there is, indeed, an investigation underway.

If someone knows how to sneak in a link without getting us in trouble, have at it.

Just a thought but could this be an investigation that finds nothing wrong and lets the Clinton’s off the hook? All this would have be done before Trump assumed office. On the other hand I would hope this is the real deal.

It's possible that Comey was so pissed he had to let Hillary skate on the emails that he tapped someone he knew would take care of the situation..................the reason Comey let her skate is he is on her side. He pays to play too. He is still on the board of directors for HCSB bank. That bank donated heavily to Clinton Foundation. That same bank was charged with a crime. I forget now. DOJ let it go. No charges. The same time other banks got in trouble. HCSB..nothing.

They are registered as a tax exempt, non-profit ‘Charity’ not the most connected money-raking Lobbying Firm in the world. The buzz is the C/F got IRS’ okay to raise funds for the Arkansas Clinton Library....not as a global “do-good.”

---

Wall Street whistleblower Charles Ortel quoted a former managing director of Dillon, Read & Co thusly: “under New York law, tax authorities dont have to show criminal intent to get convictions against foundation officials.”

THE MONEY QUOTE: Authorities need only show that the Clinton Foundation filed materially misleading financial information but kept on fundraising for a myriad of do-good projects.

---

POSTER’S NOTE The legal culpability of a tax-free “charity” consists of:

<><> soliciting and taking money, and,

<><> showing how they spend it.

So if the Clinton Foundation raised money using the US mails and cited a specific “do-good cause” but used the donated money elsewhere, that is considered mail/electronic fraud.

Earlier, Ortel found irregularities of a sufficient magnitude that the Clinton Foundation should be shut down.

Ortel: if any of the 50 state attorneys general present the evidence to a federal district judge, an injunction would be ordered, shutting down the Clinton Foundation and placing the organization in receivership.

Isn’t Toobin the ambulance-chaser on CNN?

This is a day late and a dollar short. Nothing will be done before she steals the election. The only thing that will stop her is a massive turnout for Trump on election day, but I’m not even sure if that will be enough.

Preet Bharara. Nominated for NY US Attorney by BHO.

I’m not sure I can put much stock in the outcome....Kabuki theater as it appears that he is a former colleague of Loretta Lynch: https://newrepublic.com/article/120214/attorney-general-loretta-lynch-republicans-question-obamas-pick

Well, as long as he comes out and follows the trend by saying the Clinton Crime Family, including Ma Clintoon, are a bunch of bottom feeding criminals and crooks that you better not cross or you’ll be pushin’ up daisies, I guess it will be okay if he says that they can’t be indicted because they aren’t very sophisticated and don’t steal money from other people intentionally at the end of his spiel.

I’m cynical in the extreme about this. I think the purpose of this investigation is to shield Hillary from uncomfortable lines of inquiry. The investigation exists only so that Clinton and surrugates can deflect any questions with “I can’t speak to that. There’s an ongoing investigation and it would be inappropriate for me to comment at this time.”

The investigation, such as it is, will:

- if Hillary wins, find no wrongdoing

- if Trump wins, be found to have produced no work product at all; in fact, records will have been destroyed - accidentally.

Good article, thanks.

Unfortunately FR is currently awash in Clinton shills screaming nothing will ever go anywhere and invoking “reality” for their screeds. So it’s really not worth reading the thread itself - just the article.

The psyops on this site is more extreme than ever before. They’re just as bad as the MSM. FR must really worry the Clintons, for them to spend so much money on trying to corrupt it.

If I’m betting in the Dead Pool, I give him better odds of dying in the next few months compared to, oh I don’t Bob Dole.

Toobin's a liberal hack. The word 'Clinton' does not occur in the article.

I see he devotes a paragraph to Bharara's having charged the Deputy Consul General of India with visa fraud in 2013 over her having imported a housekeeper from her home country. Devyani Khobragade got the full treatment, including a strip search. Bharara got his headlines. And John Kerry, who went to Vietnam, had a completely unnecessary diplomatic mess with a key ally to deal with.

Devyani khobragade

Hopefully, in the Clintons' case, Bharara will show similar disregard for the Regime's welfare. After all, the headlines will be so much bigger!

Maybe Comey was ‘picking his fight’ and decided the ‘Foundation’ was the stronger case... I hope so...

[Defiant]

Reminds me of how people used to think of a guy named Fitzgerald. They were all hoping for Fitzmas. It never came.

I’m pretty sure the Establishment isn’t going to take out the trash, no matter how bad the ripped, leaking bag stinks...

[Ann Archy]

Oh PULEEZE!!!! He will do NOTHING to bring HILLAIARY TO JUSTICE.....since he is in the “JUST US” Dept!!! ANYONE who even THINKS about Bringing down HIllary is DEAD!! LITERALLY...they WILL be KILLED! He will NOT be a MARTYR!

Did he go to school with BHO? Graduated ‘93

I wouldn’t count on anything coming out of this. Preet has no scruples. This is the guy that viciously went after Dinesh D’Souza for Obama, and put him away for a minor infraction that no one has ever gone to jail for before. He’s not some noble prosecutor, but just a vicious lawyer out to bludgeon people with the law for whatever cause (like himself) he’s behind at the moment.
