After the election, many speculated that the probe of the Clinton Foundation would be laid to rest. But now, according to an exclusive report from the Daily Caller, senior officials at FBI headquarters in Washington DC have apparently instructed agents in the New York field office to continue their investigation of the Clinton Foundation. According to the source, the instructions were passed on to the NYC field office last week and involves operations in at least five cities, including: New York, Little Rock, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles and Miami.
Officials at FBI headquarters instructed its New York field office to continue its corruption investigation into the Clinton Foundation following the election of Republican candidate Donald Trump, according to a former senior law enforcement official.
The instructions ordered agents to “go forward” with their ongoing inquiry into the Clinton Foundation which is focusing on issues of corruption and money laundering, according to the source.
“There were no instructions to shut it down, to discontinue or to stand down on the investigation, but to continue its work,” the former official told the Daily Caller News Foundation in an interview.
He said he received this information about a week ago and that the order originated from the bureau’s headquarters in Washington, D.C. well after the Nov. 8 election. He did not know who at FBI Headquarters issued the order.
The same source broke the news to TheDCNF that the FBI was conducting a multi-city probe of the foundation in as many as five cities: New York, Little Rock, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles and Miami. The source did not know the status of the bureau’s work in the four other cities.
Of course, many had assumed the investigations into Hillary's email scandal and the Clinton Foundation were officially off after Trump announced that he wouldn't pursue the investigation, saying “I don’t wanna hurt them. They’re good people" (see "Trump Won't Pursue Charges Against Hillary: 'She's Been Through Enough'").
After the election, President-elect Donald Trump indicated that prosecuting rival Hillary Clinton or her foundation would not be a priority.
In an interview with the New York Times on November 21, he said, “I don’t want to hurt the Clintons, I really don’t.”
But he didn’t rule out a continuing probe of the foundation, saying, “we’ll have people that do things,” on the foundation, which the Times wrote was, “perhaps a reference to the FBI or Republicans who might continue to press for prosecutions in the email or foundation cases.”
Perhaps Putin has already officially taken control of the FBI. Please, no one tell Keith Olbermann, he won't be able to handle this development right now.
Just one of many reminders why Hillary losing was the best thing to happen for the country.
Only so they can clear it up before Trump takes office.
Under Obama, they must be planning a whitewash.
Pursue this to the grisly end: to the head of the snake!
Killer, lesbian, liar, thief!
Clyde was just along for the ride, the cocaine, the underaged girls and the occasionally rapes.
Can we investigate the Clinton Body Count, while we’re at it?
If justice is to be done ( and it should be done), it will only happen after the Obama administration is out of power. Also Trump come to understand that if he fails to investigate the crimes of the Clinton foundation, it will be an indelible stain on his Presidency. That is why the appointment of Bannon as “chief strategist” is thus far the most critically important appointment to date.
I think that this is a warning to the leftist diehards that if they persist in stirring the pot, there will be consequences. And once it gets started who knows how far or how deep it may go.

“Only so they can clear it up before Trump takes office.”.....
Another theory....... Odumbo hopes to get Hitlary convicted and out of the picture so the moooooooooooooooooch can run for POTUS after Trumps initial four years. Personally, the Mooooooooooooch doesn’t have a snowballs chance in hell and she can blame odumbo for setting that blockage in place. Of course, that will depend on a couple things, Hitlary lives another four years and worse for the mooooooch or Hitlary, Trump does such a great job that he will not be replaced (Best of the best)
“.........they must be planning a whitewash.”....
THAT’S RACISTS!
It would be so easy to nail them to the wall on this racket. I’ve heard the wheels of justice turn slowly but this wheel has rusted in place. It’s beyond ridiculous at this point.
If justice is done Bill and Hillary Clinton will die in prison.
Obama will have to pardon her and all her crimes...or not.
Not content to bury the hatchet, Alinsky Rules for Radicals states that winning is everything by whatever means necessary - without exception. No such thing as honor in defeat for these satan’s merchants!
