FBI launches new Clinton Foundation investigation
The Hill ^ | 1/4/2018 | JOHN SOLOMON AND ALISON SPANN

Posted on 01/04/2018 6:19:27 PM PST by bitt

he Justice Department has launched a new inquiry into whether the Clinton Foundation engaged in any pay-to-play politics or other illegal activities while Hillary Clinton served as Secretary of State, law enforcement officials and a witness tells The Hill.

FBI agents from Little Rock, Ark., where the Foundation was started, have taken the lead in the investigation and have interviewed at least one witness in the last month, and law enforcement officials said additional activities are expected in coming weeks.

The officials, who spoke only on condition of anonymity, said the probe is examining whether the Clintons promised or performed any policy favors in return for largesse to their charitable efforts or whether donors made commitments of donations in hopes of securing government outcomes.

The probe may also examine whether any tax-exempt assets were converted for personal or political use and whether the Foundation complied with applicable tax laws, the officials said.

One witness recently interviewed by the FBI described the session to The Hill as “extremely professional and unquestionably thorough” and focused on questions about whether donors to Clinton charitable efforts received any favorable treatment from the Obama administration on a policy decision previously highlighted in media

I just hope they take into consideration if Mrs. Bill Clinton knew what she was doing was wrong or not. /s

The Clintons just need to run out the clock on the statute of limitations. They are almost free.

Brilliant to run this out of Little Rock. Can’t find an impartial jury in Washington.

“they still have rosenstein and mueller, do they not?”

Rosenstein yes, Mueller no. Mueller can get indictments against Trumpsters but can’t stop indictments by the rest of the Justice department.

Watch for reports that Bill and Hillary are having serious health issues.
(How can the government jail two old people with serious health issues)

That is the only way I see them staying out of jail.

It really doesn’t matter. IF, Hillary was ever indicted she would be wheeled into a courtroom on a gurney with such aplomb it would put any mob boss to shame.

A lot going on today. The FBI and DOJ turn over the documents requested by Congress. The DOJ revisiting the Clinton email scandal. The while this is going on we have the Uranium One “witness” with is documentation and testimony coming up. 2018 is off to a roaring start.

So many things to look at including the $145 million from the Russians for the Uranium One approval. This has the potential to be real big.
