A journalist employed by liberal Huffington Post reported that the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) will recommend that the Department of Justice file a Federal criminal complaint, indicting U.S. Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.
Frank Hugenard is a political scientist, public speaker and freelance contributor to the Huff Po. He had his story removed by HuffPo editors and his account disabled without explanation. His article bore the title: ""Hillary Clinton to be Indicted On Federal Racketeering Charges" It quickly went viral before being removed.
FBI Director James Comey will present a recommendation to Loretta Lynch, Attorney General and head of the U.S. Department of Justice, that includes a compelling argument that the Clinton Foundation is an ongoing criminal enterprise engaged in money laundering and soliciting bribes in exchange for political, policy and legislative favors to individuals, corporations and even governments both foreign and domestic.
Huguenard, a Bernie Sanders supporter, says that he has sources within the FBI. They say the Bureau will recommend that the DOJ file Racketeering charges against Mrs. Clinton.
The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) is a United States Federal Law passed in 1970 that was designed to provide a tool for law enforcement agencies to fight organized crime. RICO allows prosecution and punishment for alleged racketeering activity that has been executed as part of an ongoing criminal enterprise.
Attorneys regard the RICO statute as unduly broad, and in the past it has been used to indict even legitimate businessmen for legitimate activities.
Hillary Clinton admits using her own server to send classified e-mails, which was against State Department policy at the time.
Activity considered to be racketeering may include bribery, counterfeiting, money laundering, embezzlement, illegal gambling, kidnapping, murder, drug trafficking, slavery, and a host of other nefarious business practices.
Huffington Post Politics senior editor Sam Stein claims to have no idea why the post was removed, and refused to give further comment when contacted by Breitbart News. Stein opined, "Sorry. I don't know. I'd direct your question to a blog editor."
A controversy arose in March 2015, when it was revealed by the State Department's inspector general that Clinton had exclusively used personal email accounts on a non-government, privately maintained server-in lieu of email accounts maintained on federal government servers-when conducting official business during her tenure as Secretary of State. Some experts, officials, members of Congress, and political opponents, contended that her use of private messaging system software and a private server violated State Department protocols and procedures, and federal laws and regulations governing record keeping requirements.
Nearly 2,100 emails contained in Clinton's server were retroactively marked classified by the State Department, though none of the emails were marked classified at the time they were sent. 65 were later classified as "secret", more than 20 were designated "top secret", and the rest were later designated as "confidential".
However, the intelligence community's inspector general wrote Congress to say that some of the emails "contained classified State Department information when originated."
In a joint statement released on July 15, 2015, the inspector general of the State Department and the inspector general of the intelligence community said that through their review of the emails, they found information that was classified when sent, remained so as of their inspection, and "never should have been transmitted via an unclassified personal system." They also stated unequivocally that those secrets never should have been stored outside of secure government computer systems. Mrs. Clinton had stated over a period of months that she kept no classified information on the private server that she set up in her house.
Smug or indicted? You decide
Government policy, reiterated in the nondisclosure agreement signed by Clinton as part of gaining her security clearance, is that sensitive information can be considered as classified even if not marked as such.[394] After allegations were raised that some of the emails in question fell into the so-called "born classified" category, an FBI probe was initiated regarding how classified information was handled on the Clinton server. In May 2016, the inspector general of the state department criticized her use of a private email server while she was secretary of state stating that she had not requested permission to use it and even if she had, she would not have been given permission.
The controversy occurred against the backdrop of Clinton's 2016 presidential election campaign and hearings held by the House Select Committee on Benghazi
When the state accuses her of criminality, and they pour out mountains of proof, she will have to vacate.
She will go screaming and have to be dragged by horses, and they will strike out at Obama. I am sure Bill said, “If we go, so do you Barack!” They will start throwing mud everywhere.
This could be the end of the Clinton Plague upon America. They have been a veritable crime family and have enriched themselves immensely from public service. Bill had been quoted in the past that he never thought he got paid for putting deals together, and he watched with envy as captains of industry became wealthy and he was just a public servant. Their innate character flaws could not recognize the difference between a public servant and a profit seeking industrialist - hence they had no qualms about shaking down corporations for millions, selling their offices to the highest bidder, and sycophantic media repeating the Clinton talking points of there isn’t a smoking gun. It has been the biggest of lies, all of it, and the public has been forced to tolerate it.
Now it will be done!
When Trump debates Hillary, he can just read her e-mails for reference to the questions.
Hillary finally dragged off the national scene and into a criminal conviction or plea deal, kicking, screaming and gritting her teeth all the way. Would the Gods be that good to us?
I noticed the guy behind him on the right is giving a look, too.
"OMG, I can't feel my hand on my knee. I better cut out the Scotch.....maybe try vodka."
(1) Hillary's State Dept uses classified intel in exchange for honoraria, big-buck foundation donations, business deals.
(2) COLLUSION Bill gets foundation donations through State Dept action OR calculated inaction.
(3) The Clintons use "do-goodism" as a ruse to slither into countries w/ massive reserves of gold, uranium mines, oil, etc.
(4) Foundation laundry machines: Eaglevale Hedge Fund run by Chelsea's husband, Goldman Sachs insiders.
(5) Teneo laundry--employed Bill, Huma Abedin, etc etc etc
(6) Obama foundations' cut of Clinton deals (CLUE: Clinton Foundation donates to Obama Foundation "for the children")
(7) State Dept foreign aid tax dollars channeled back as foundation donations (see Cameroon Baptist Church's $10 million foundation donation).
(8) $6 billion found missing from Hillary's State Dept when she exited.
(9) Hillary gave Haiti billions; brother gets gold-mining license.
(10) Clintons' multiple hidden buck-raking entities (Bill just unveiled The Clinton America Foundation).
(11) Hillary hand-picks recipients of State Dept awards in exchange for foundation donations.
(12) Bill goes to Kazkhstan; Hillary approves Russian takeover of US uranium mines
(13) Clinton/Giustra Canada foundation hides donors.
(14) Clinton's Swedish entity hides donors.
(15) Clintons get rich on tolerance and compassion, w/ an occasional good deed.
(16) MAIL FRAUD-Pricewaterhouse Coopers accountants retained by the Clintons failed to report the Clinton Foundations apparent massive diversions of funds from a HIV/AIDS global charity (raising money for one cause that was diverted is considered mail fraud).
(17) Rahm Emanuel was Bill Clinton's senior WH aide, AND, a Goldman Sachs lobbyist...at the same time.
(18) Rham Emanuel was Obama's COS and ran the US Treasury--at the same time.
(19) State Dept ignored requests WRT Hillary refusing to place Nigeria's Boko Haram on a terrorist list---Clinton Foundation big-buck donor, Gilbert Chagoury heads sprawling Nigerian company.
(20) Lukas Lundin heads Canadian-based Lundin Mining, w/ big-buck interests in the Congo's mining and oil reserves; gives Clintons $100 million donation.
(21) Chelsea lied---said the Foundation received "high marks" from a watchdog group (which she knew to be false).
(22) Bill, Chelsea and Hillary Clinton Foundation underwritten by $16,000,000 grant paid for by US taxpayers.
(23) TAX FRAUD Board members were not advised of, and did not sign off on, Foundation expenditures. (Board members are fiduciaries required by law to oversee distribution of donations).
(24) L/E investigating the Jeffrey Epstein pedophile case found Clinton listed w/ 21 phone nos and email addresses---multiple phone nos and emails are connected to money laundering and tax fraud.
HILLARY---WHITE PRIVILEGE ON STEROIDS
"Watta bunch of suckers---I pocket a $300,000 speaking fee, plus perks up my kazoo.
I make no major policy statements that might hurt my image for 2016. ROTFLOL."

WASH/PO By Rosalind S. Helderman and Philip Rucker
Plans for UCLA visit give rare glimpse into Hillary Clintons paid speaking career.....she was paid $300,000 to speak to UCLA students and faculty in March. (UCLA) When officials at the University of California at Los Angeles began negotiating a $300,000 speech appearance by Hillary Rodham Clinton, the school had one request: Could we get a reduced rate for public universities? The answer from Clintons representatives: $300,000 is the special university rate.
That e-mail exchange and other internal communications, obtained this week by The Washington Post under a Freedom of Information Act request, provide a rare glimpse into the complex and meticulous backstage efforts to manage the likely 2016 presidential candidates lucrative speaking career.
At UCLA, efforts to book Clinton and then prepare for her visit were all-consuming, beginning almost immediately after she left her job as secretary of state on Feb. 1, 2013, until she delivered her Luskin Lecture for Thought Leadership speech on March 5, 2014.
The documents show that Clintons representatives at the Harry Walker Agency exerted considerable control over her appearance and managed even the smallest details from requesting lemon wedges and water on stage to a computer, scanner, and a spread of hummus and crudité in the green room backstage.

Top university officials discussed at length the style and color of the executive armchairs Clinton and moderator Lynn Vavreck would sit in as they carried on a question-and-answer session, as well as the kind of pillows to be situated on each chair. Clintons representatives requested that the chairs be outfitted with two long, rectangular pillows and that two cushions be kept backstage in case the chair was too deep and she needed additional back support.
After a lengthy call with a Clinton representative, UCLA administrator Patricia Lippert reported to campus colleagues, She uses a lavalier [microphone] and will both speak from the audience and walk around stage, TED talk style. We need a teleprompter and 2-3 downstage scrolling monitors [for] her to read from.
During a walk-through of Royce Hall five days before the lecture, the e-mails show, Clintons team rejected the podium planned for her use during her 20- to 30-minute speech, setting off a scramble on campus to find a suitable podium and rent a new university seal to match.
In the nearly two years since stepping down as secretary of state, Clinton has made dozens of paid appearances across the country at industry conventions and Wall Street banks as well as at universities. Her UCLA fee, like those at other universities, went to the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation, the familys nonprofit group.
But critics have argued that the carefully staged events and high speaking fees could complicate Clintons ability to run a populist campaign built around the economic struggles of the middle class.
Versions of Clintons standard speaking contracts have surfaced publicly this year including her luxury travel requirements but the contracts do not contain the extensive detail seen in the UCLA communications.
It is unclear how personally involved Clinton was in the UCLA negotiations and whether the requests from her agency were being directed by her or merely from underlings anticipating her preferences. A Clinton spokesman declined to comment on the speaking arrangements.
It is commonplace for celebrity speakers to request special accommodations and Clinton was no exception. Her representatives asked for a case of still water, room temperature, to be deposited stage right. They also asked that a carafe of warm/hot water, coffee cup and saucer, pitcher of room temperature water, water glass, and lemon wedges be situated both on a table on stage as well as in another room where Clinton would stand for photos with VIPs.
For the green room, Clintons representatives requested: Coffee, tea, room temp sparkling and still water, diet ginger ale, crudité, hummus and sliced fruit. They also asked for a computer, mouse and printer, as well as a scanner, which the university had to purchase for the occasion.
When university officials decided to award Clinton the UCLA Medal, Clintons team asked that it be presented to her in a box rather than draped around her neck. That request was sent to the universitys chancellor, Gene Block.
Chancellor Block has agreed to accommodate Hillary Clintons request to have the medal presented in a box, Assistant Provost Margaret Leal-Sotelo wrote in one e-mail.
Lippert replied: I can either have the jewelers box open or closed, in case the Chancellor doesnt want to risk opening it. By contract, Clintons approval was needed for any promotional materials. Clinton gave permission for the university to record the event, but for archival purposes only.
For public distribution, Clintons speaking agency approved only a two-minute highlight video to upload to YouTube. Please make sure it is available only for one (1) year from the date of posting, a Harry Walker Agency official added.
Clinton posed for individual photos with 100 VIPS, or 50 couples We get a total of 50 clicks, one university official explained as well as two group photos. Lippert wrote to colleagues that Clintons representatives wanted the group shots prestaged, with participants assembled and ready to take the photographs before Clinton arrived so the secretary isnt waiting for these folks to get their act together. Reiterating the request, Lippert added, She doesnt like to stand around waiting for people.
Like many major universities, UCLA regularly pays high-profile speakers to visit campus. Many of the visits are funded through a private endowment and not with tuition or public dollars. Clintons appearance was privately funded as part of a lecture series endowed by Meyer Luskin, an investor and president of Scope Industries, a food waste recycling company.
Agreed, there's no way in hell that loretta lynch is going to allow the habitual liar to be indicted.
I’ll believe it when I see it.
This is still bs.
The guy has never cited a source.
Thanks for the screen cap,SkyPilot!

This article is journalistic mal practice
The subject is the RICO case against the Clinton foundation but everyother paragraph related to the e mail problem and not to the subject article
Journotrash paid for by the word
Thanks Liz. Saving for future ammo
Pass the word......far and wide.
Democrats are more equal than Republicans.
The US is now as corrupt as Mexico.
She will be rewarded.
Is that Archie Bunker?
And remember, the entire time she was at the State Dept. without an Inspector General, which I believe I read had never happened in the history of the State Dept.
Not that any of this matters. She will get away with all of it, because millions of Americans allow it.
I think we’re the ones who are mad, not the politicians. Who else but insane people would allow a handful of people to destroy their county and be put in shackles by them when we out number them so.
Madness.
The FBI started trying Hillary in the court of public opinion months ago. The ongoing polling of the jury is reflected in the steady drop in her approval rating.
Probably. The FBI has been selectively leaking info for at least a year in a war of words with the White House, executive branch agencies and the Clintons.
