Hillary Aides Threatened Prime Minister’s Son With IRS Audit
Daily Caller ^ | 04/25/17 | Richard Pollock

Hillary Clinton’s Department of State aides threatened a South Asian prime minister’s son with an IRS audit in an attempt to stop a Bangladesh government investigation of a close friend and donor of Clinton’s, The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group learned.

A Bangladesh government commission was investigating multiple charges of financial mismanagement at Grameen Bank, beginning in May 2012. Muhammad Yunus, a major Clinton Foundation donor, served as managing director of the bank.

Sajeeb Wazed Joy, son of Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and permanent U.S. resident, recalled the account of the threatened IRS audit to TheDCNF. The allegations mark the first known instance in the U.S. that Clinton’s Department of State used IRS power to intimidate a close relative of a friendly nation’s head of state on behalf of a Clinton Foundation donor.

Joy told TheDCNF it was “astounding and mind boggling” that senior State Department officials between 2010 and 2012 repeatedly pressured him to influence his mother to drop the commission investigation.

The commission report was released in early 2013.

“They threatened me with the possibility of an audit by the Internal Revenue Service,” he said.  “I have been here legally for 17 years and never had a problem. But they said, ‘well, you know, you might get audited.’”

“They would say over and over again, ‘Yunus has powerful friends’ and we all knew they were talking of Secretary Clinton. Everybody knew it was Mrs. Clinton,” Joy told TheDCNF.

You cannot possibly mean “go gator” Brown, eh! Yes she is dim, yes she is corrupt but what she does do is represent those who elect her. I wish some of those dim bulb RINOs would take a lesson.

Respectfully disagree.
The IRS, ESPECIALLY under the direction of the Obama administration have shown absolutely no regard for law, truthfulness or anything other than imposing their will.

Perhaps long ago what you said is true, but recent times have shown the IRS to be an enforcement wing of the Left’s Brownshirt ideology.

Another real curse is state tax dept’s. I got a friend here in Florida, that lived in CT for 5 years, and before that NY state. NY state is going back 10 or more years and attaching his S.S. benefit back beyond the statues of limitations. Govt is above the laws I guess.

That Clinton used this against someone either innocent or guilty should send shock waves.

Paula Jones was one and she only ever filed a short form as well. In fact there was always someone being audited that had got crossways with the Clintons. I thought that was a given.

US AG Jeff Sessions was on Hannity’s radio program recently and was asked whether justice is being pursued with respect to Hillary Clinton’s email server. And Sessions responded by saying that they were building a case up from the lower levels. It’s only a matter of time when Hillary will have to decide to admit and beg for a pardon or fight it in a criminal court of law.

I hope those lower level people will testify against the clintons and obama etc. We are a 3rd rate country if we let these murders and traitors get away with their crimes.
