Chaffetz: Trump Told Me ‘Go After Everything You Want To Go After’ [Incl. the Hildabeast?]
Daily Caller ^ | 1/31/17 | Christian Datoc

Posted on 01/31/2017 3:13:46 PM PST by markomalley

Congressman Jason Chaffetz said during Tuesday’s House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform that President Trump instructed him and the committee to pursue every government investigation they deem appropriate.

The Oversight chairman stated the conversation took place after the 2017 GOP retreat in Philadelphia, his second-time ever speaking with President Trump in person.

“He came up to me and said, ‘you do a great job. You do a great job,’ which of course I agreed with,” the Utah Republican explained, eliciting laughs from the committee. “Then he said, ‘listen, I understand that I am the President. You have a job to do. You do oversight. Don’t slow down. You go after everything you want to go after. You look at everything you want to look at.”

“If you sat there and heard what he said to me about pursuing oversight of the government and the function that we fulfill, you’d be pretty inspiring, and it was inspiring to me,” he continued. “For him to convey the message, ‘don’t slow down, do your job, there’s a lot to get after with the government,’ I think that’s a good message.”

Hopefully this includes looking at the Server, the Clinton Foundation, and Pay For Play.

Those do not appear to be in the committees wheelhouse. Sounds like Trump is talking about government abuses rather than abuse of the government.

Check its jurisdiction to be sure.

This should be high on the list of Clinton investigations: An obscure
Baptist Church in dirt-poor Cameroon, Sub-Saharan Africa, gave the
Clinton Foundation....wait for it....TEN MILLION DOLLARS.

Huh?

Then we learn that Cameroon is the recipient of hundreds of millions of foreign aid grants from the State Dept....for every social ill imaginable.

Is this the classic Clinton Foundation laundry?

<><> then-secy Hillary doles out State Dept foreign aid (our tax dollars) to the Cameroon govt,

<><> the Cameroon govt then launders the foreign aid into the Baptist church,

<><> the church takes a cut then donates the rest to the Clinton Foundation.

==============================================

Remember that Secy Clinton's top aide, Cheryl Mills, as a US govt
employee, also operated the BlackIvy Group, a development company
focused on Sub-Saharan Africa.

....the FBI also found that foreign “actors” had been able to get their hands on Clinton’s classified material"...

...hostile foreign (entities) successfully gained access to the personal email accounts of individuals associated with the Clintons, and with whom Clinton was in regular contact, and, in doing so, obtained emails sent or received by Clinton on her personal account.”...

What’s going to happen to Clinton crony Sid Blumenthal? Not a govt employee, Sid was employed by the Clinton Foundation as a 350,000 dollar per year factotum (in charge of Bill's {gag} presidential Legacy).

As revealed by WikiLeaks, Guccifer, DCLeaks (and most recently a quiet FBI dump), show that Hillary sent Emails to Clinton crony Sid Blumenthal that contained confidential info.

The leaks reveal Blumenthal was hacked by China, Russia, and Israel.

==========================================

Moreover, Clinton Foundation employee, Sid Blumenthal, had in his possession classified State Dept info almost verbatim (as confirmed by the NSA).

Sid had numerous side business interests mostly predicated on Hillary and Obama offing Khadafi.

Hillary gave such a recommendation to Obama----but it was written by Blumenthal.

There was probably an agreement between Trump and Obama to leave Hillary alone (in the name of unifying the American people). And part of the agreement was that Obama would disappear and keep quiet. Since Obama has resurfaced all bets are off.

I'd like to see a thorough investigation of the IRS, ....

Overrun the libs with a million conservative bills and drown them with legislation that they’ll be forced to vote on.

They won’t be able to keep up. Obama set this precedent - now time to eat the lunch you made libs!
