Meet the man investigating the Clinton Foundation

Posted on 08/12/2016 1:35:33 PM PDT by Semper911

I apologize for not providing a link - the source will not allow it. But I urge you to search for and read an article by Jeffery Toobin in the New Yorker Magazine called "The Showman", published in May 2016. It is about United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Preet Bharara

It is a very interesting profile: He worked for Schumer, is pals with Comey, and has taken down many corrupt officials.

But if you take the time to read the whole thing, you'll get a fairly good feeling about the chances of something being made to stick to the Clinton Foundation.

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.

Expect to see Jeffery Toobin being interviewed a lot about this profile article. (I can't stand the guy personally, and I bet he is crapping himself to learn that this guy is peering in on his pal HRC.)

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...

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

You, sir, are right on the money. Glad to know I’m not alone.

Agree with you about the Hillary people here.

She’s spending millions on online trolls. They created the “Bernie Bros” by pretending to be sexist Bernie fans.

Now they are on here as NeverTrumpers / disgruntled Republicans starting thread after thread to encourage division.

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

I fully expect Barry to fully pardon Hill and Bill for anything they have done on the planet before he leaves office. Since I expect he knows what’s good for him.

I wouldn't mind that. A pardon means you did something wrong (at least in most people's minds.) Then she'll have even more in common with Richard Nixon.

Bharara may be a good guy or not. However, let’s take a little trip down USADSDNY lane.

In the 1990’s, famed Mafia fighter USDA for the So. District of NY was Mary Jo White. Fearless and honest. Her whole investigation of LIUNA (Laborers International Union of North America) and affiliated unions, all run by the NY Gambino/Gotti mafia families, was skunked when Att. Gen. Janet Reno (DOJ) quashed hundreds of indictments of LIUNA and its leader Arthur Coia Jr (His father, former LIUNA leader and mafia man, was in jail for corruption).

She appointed an “administrator” to help clean up the union with the help of its mobbed up leader Arthur Coia Jr.

LIUNA had given the Clintons and the Democrats over $10 MILLION dollars in donations to various causes over the years.

I don’t remember who the next USDANSD (during the Bush years) was but later it was Loretta Lynch, now the present US Attorney at DOJ (she was a Clinton appointee for the position of USDASDNY before Obama nominated her for DOJ).

I hope and pray that Bharara is as good as reported. We need a strong, honest man or woman there to clean up the criminal mess that is NY/NJ.

See the article in The American Spectator, April 1977 by Byron York about the Clintons and the Mob. It tells it all about the Clintons corruption.

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.

I have no faith in this “investigation” moving forward and doing anything.

If nothing else, the fact that he seriously dislikes that authoritarian puke Andrew Cuomo should earn him a few points.
