DOJ Investigating Clinton Foundation According To New York Times Report

In a bombshell new report Attorney General Bill Barr and his prosecutor, John Durham are probing the Clinton Foundation, long thought to be a corrupt slush fund for Hillary and Bill.

From the report: “Mr. Durham, the U.S. attorney in Connecticut assigned by Mr. Barr to review the Russia inquiry, has sought documents and interviews about how federal law enforcement officials handled an investigation around the same time into allegations of political corruption at the Clinton Foundation, according to people familiar with the matter.

Mr. Durham’s team members have suggested to others that they are comparing the two investigations as well as examining whether investigators in the Russia inquiry flouted laws or policies.

It was not clear whether Mr. Durham’s investigators were similarly looking for violations in the Clinton Foundation investigation, nor whether the comparison would be included or play a major role in the outcome of Mr. Durham’s inquiry.”

The Clinton Foundation has long been rumored to be under investigation while some will consider this a political hit job if it turns into a series of indictments.

More from the report:

Mr. Durham’s focus on the Clinton Foundation inquiry comes as concerns deepen among Democrats and some former Justice Department officials that his investigation is being weaponized politically to help Mr. Trump.

Congressional Democrats last week called on the department’s inspector general to investigate whether Mr. Durham’s review was free from political influence after his top aide abruptly resigned, reportedly over concerns that the team’s findings would be prematurely released before the election in November.

Congressional Democrats are investigating whether the investigator investigating Clinton political influence is politically influenced.

Could they really try to give up the Clintons so the Obamas and their collaborators go free? Bill was already impeached, so the DNC brand would not really lose much there. And the administrative state could just ‘rock on.’ Bleh!

“...long thought to be a corrupt slush fund for Hillary and Bill”

Throw Chelsea in there too. She is in on it as well, to the tune of 1 million every year. The entire family is corrupt to the core.

Investigating? Really? Guess they have to spend sone of that budget money on an investigation of an untouchable. Our government agencies are an utter joke.

I have low expectations even though there are more red flags around the foundation than you might see at a Chinese military parade.

I would settle for this - there should NEVER be any foundation like that again. NEVER. The reason they raked in so much money was the influence they had within our government, the offices that they held or were expected to hold, and then we put her in charge of diplomacy.

Can you even begin to imagine if the Trump family did this or what the Biden’s did? It would be non-stop wall to wall media coverage and outrage.

They are poking fun at Republicans that believe that something is actually being done.

They are investigating Lois Lerner, too.

Durham Probe Looks at Clintons, Raising Questions

Giustra, Hillary, Amb Pickering and wife.

The New York Times April 2015 published an article about the Clinton Foundation, its receipt of millions of dollars from foreign governments and other interests, and the U.S. government's involvement in Russia's stated goal to expand its control of the world's uranium market. All while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State. The NY Times didn't reach a conclusion, but one question looms very large:

As Secretary of State, did Hillary influence an international deal giving a Russian company 20% ownership of America's uranium production, in return for millions of dollars of cash donations to the Clinton Foundation?

Here is a list of questionable items forming a chain of events:

1. September of 2005: Canadian Frank Giustra visits Kazakhstan with Bill Clinton. Days later, his company UrAsia wins a major uranium deal with the country.

2. 2006: Giustra donates $31 million to the Clinton Foundation.

3. February 2007: UrAsia merges with Uranium One and expands into the U.S..

4. June 2008: Russian atomic agency Rosatom begins talks to acquire Uranium One.

5. 2008 to 2010: Uranium One and UrAsia investors donate $8.65 million to Clinton Foundation.

6. June 2009: Rosatom acquires 17% of Uranium One.

7. 2010 to 2011: Millions more donated by Uranium One investors to Clinton Foundation.

8. June 2010: Rosatom requests Committee on Foreign Investment (of which the State Department is a member and its approval is needed) to approve a majority ownership in Uranium One, PROMISING NOT TO PURCHASE 100% of it, NOR TAKE IT PRIVATE.

9. June 2010: Bill Clinton receives $500,000 to speak at a conference held by the Russian investment bank involved in the Rosatom transactions.
