IRS looking into Clinton Foundation 'pay-to-play' claims
Fox News.com ^ | July 27, 2016

Posted on 07/28/2016 4:14:16 AM PDT by Kaslin

The IRS confirmed in a letter it is looking into claims of “pay-to-play” practices at the Clinton Foundation, after dozens of Republican lawmakers requested a review of potential “criminal conduct” at the organization founded by the family at the center of this week’s Democratic National Convention.

Commissioner John Koskinen wrote in a July 22 letter to Republican Rep. Marsha Blackburn that the issue has been “forwarded” to the IRS “Exempt Organizations Examinations” program in Dallas.

“This program considers all referrals and will send you a separate acknowledgement letter when it receives your information,” he wrote, in a letter first reported by The Daily Caller.

It’s unclear whether the agency might take any further action. The letter noted that, under the law, they could not reveal “any actions we may take on this information.”

I can see it all now......”The Clintons didn’t intend to commit crimes. They do good all over the world.”

Honestly, they do more harm than good by requesting the Clinton Foundation be investigate. That gives the crooks the opportunity to turn around and exonerate her, making the Republicans look like they’re after her for nothing, thereby validating her “witch hunt” mantra.

Skunk investigating his own stink.

As if the Obama administration would actually take any negative action at all against the Clintons after that Obama/Clinton Love-In on TV last night.

Dennis Hastert went to prison for SPENDING HIS OWN MONEY.
The clintonistas bring in billions and there is nothing to see.

Hillary Clinton is not worthy of shining Tom Brady’s cleats.

After a thorough investigation, Clinton will be exonerated come around Halloween.

It also gives them cover during the campaign, “under advice of counsel we can’t comment,” or something like that.

Our Republicans are asking a politically tainted bureau within the executive branch to ‘investigate’ a possible crime of presidential nominee who might just be their boss come January. Anybody see a problem with this?

Yes, it is absolutely a “joke” for Obola’s IRS to “investigate” ANYTHING done by a democrat.

But.

Since it is “under investigation” by the IRS, EVERY question about her emails now can be delayed BY that “under investigation” answer! EVERY “witness” gets a free government lawyer, and that lawyer can now tell EVERY witness to “shut up” ...

A lot of people are tired of the Clinton stench. Their hope that putting the email mess behind them would clear the air hasn’t happened. Now an IRS investigation is being bandied about.

The stench isn’t going away. If anything, it’s gotten stronger.
