Whether it is merely the FBI trying to restore its shattered credibility or justice finally being done, the news that the pay-for-play activities of the Clinton Foundation are going to get renewed and serious attention is welcome. The Clintons have made a career of ignoring, breaking and skirting the law. Up to this point for the Clintons crime has paid off handsomely, but now they may find themselves caught between Little Rock and a hard place:
The Justice Department has launched a new inquiry into whether the Clinton Foundation engaged in any pay-to-play politics or other illegal activities while Hillary Clinton served as secretary of State, law enforcement officials and a witness tells The Hill.This should be a very short investigation for Hillary Clinton is a ham sandwich waiting to be indicted. All that should be necessary is to empanel a grand jury and read them the known facts. The Clinton Foundation was hardly charitable except to its donors Any investigation should start with Haiti where the Clinton Foundation plundered disaster-ridden Haiti for fun and profit. As the Washington Free Beacon reported:FBI agents from Little Rock, Ark., where the foundation was started, have taken the lead in the investigation and have interviewed at least one witness in the last month, and law enforcement officials said additional activities are expected in the coming weeks.
The officials, who spoke only on condition of anonymity, said the probe is examining whether the Clintons promised or performed any policy favors in return for largesse to their charitable efforts or whether donors made commitments of donations in hopes of securing government outcomes.
Haitian activists protested outside of the Clinton Foundation in New York over the loss of "billions of dollars" that was meant to help rebuild after the devastating 2010 earthquake.The activists are claiming the money was stolen through the Haiti Reconstruction Commission that was headed by Bill Clinton. In January 2015, the Clinton Foundation was the target of protests for wasting more than $10 billion and awarding contracts to non-Haitian companies.The activists also said Haiti as a cover for foreign governments to funnel kickbacks of hundreds of millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation. They believe that this was done for favors that Hillary was doing for the foreign governments while she was Secretary of State."We are telling the world of the crimes that Bill and Hillary Clinton are responsible for in Haiti," said Dhoud Andre of the Committee Against Dictatorship in Haiti.That the Clinton Foundation’s operations were nothing but a cash cow scam is seen in a brilliant analysis and expose of its operations in Colombia, a country beset by internal strife and an ongoing battle with drug cartels. The truth, as reported by Ken Silverman and the American Media Institute in Fusion, a joint venture of ABC and Univision, hardly Trump surrogates, explains in part how the Clintons amassed a small fortune without holding any job or running any business:
Colombia should be the Clinton Foundation’s best case study. Ground zero for the drug wars of the 1980s and 90s, racked by uneven development and low-intensity conflict for half a century, Colombia has received more foundation money and attention than any other nation outside the United States. Bill and Hillary Clinton have visited the country often and enjoy close relationships with members of Colombia’s ruling party. Colombia has also been home to the vast oil and natural gas holdings of the man who is reportedly the Clinton Foundation’s largest individual donor, Canadian financier Frank Giustra….Clinton donor Giustra benefited significantly from his association, even if the people of Columbia didn’t:Many of the Colombian “success stories” touted on the foundation’s website – the ones specific enough for us to track down – were critical about the foundation’s effect on their lives. Labor leaders and progressive activists say foundation programs caused environmental harm, displaced indigenous people, and that it concentrated a larger share of Colombia’s oil and natural gas reserves in the hands of Giustra, who was involved in a now bankrupt oil company that worked closely with the Clinton Foundation and which used the Colombian military a 1984-style surveillance program to smash a strike by its workers….
We interviewed young women in the foundation’s job-training programs; female business owners who sought help from its programs; workers who toiled for the foundation’s biggest individual donor’s firms; indigenous fisherman who were promised jobs and aid; and union leaders, social-justice activists, and progressive lawmakers. Some say they lost money. Others said they were used as props. Still others simply thought that the foundation had wasted a lot of their time. “They are doing nothing for workers,” one Colombian union official told us, with disgust. “I don’t even know what they are doing in this country other than exploiting poverty and extracting money.”
When we met him (Senator Jorge Enrique Robledo) in his wood-paneled office in Colombia’s Capitol building in May, his desk was stacked high with papers related to Pacific Rubiales’s labor practices, the result of years of investigative work by his staff. He did not see the Clinton Foundation and its partnership with Giustra’s Pacific Rubiales as either progressive or positive. “The territory where Pacific Rubiales operated,” he said, thumbing through pages of alleged human-rights violations, “was a type of concentration camp for workers.”…As the New York Times reported, this mutual back-scratching gave Clinton donor Giustra, and later Putin’s Russia, control of a significant portion of the world’s uranium supply:In September 2005, Giustra and Clinton flew to Kazakhstan together to meet the Central Asian nation’s president. Shortly thereafter, Giustra secured a lucrative concession to mine Kazakh uranium, despite his company’s lack of experience with the radioactive ore. As Bill Clinton opened doors for Giustra, the financier gave generously to Clinton’s foundation.

It would be fitting to discover that the money stolen by the Clintons could have been used to restore PR's infrastructure to the point where last hurricane's devastation could have been avoided.
Meaning The Clinton's theft caused the current devastation in PR...
The media is more interested in promoting Trump Fiction Books.
Clinton is old news they forgot to cover.
So you ripped off Sobieski’s stuff from American Thinker and stuck it on your blog?
You suck. Get a job.
Do not get over joyed.Now is the time to clean up DC and help the FBI if they want help. But remember the higher ups in the FBI are lawyers and their fraternity runs deeper that any drug cartel or police force. They will only get help if the rank in file want and are willing to do it.If they,the FBI do not want to be cleaned up we have major problems,it is up to them.

just watched American Made, starring Tom Cruise as Barry Seal who was recruited by CIA to run guns/drugs through Arkansas.
Clearly shows the Mena connection of Clinton, FBi, Bush Sr... but you have to have had a past reference or knowledge of this to pick it up as its flashed in snippets.
1. Billy Jeff tells attorney general of Ark not to prosecute Seal
2. CIA sets up Mena with airport to run drug to catch Colombina cartel in the act.
3. Seal looks doomed and then saved by Cabal for their purpose.....
The tentacles of coverup go deep in the halls of Washington, and there’s too much shame for these “ cabals” to ever been seen by the light of day...
I’ve been recdommending the movie for months. Yes, if you don’t know to look for it, you’ll miss out on Bill Clinton calling the DEA, ATF, FBI and Arkansas State Troopers off of Barry Seal after his arrest. No doubt this was done at the command of GHWB.
One claim is that the pic of Barry Seal in the air freighter was only released after his death - the movie presents it otherwise. I actually do not recall the timing.
There is a bit of language in the film (FYI for those with kids in the home). I saw it at the theater. Seems they tasked the blonde playing Barry Seal’s wife with most of it.
“I’ve been recommending”

Agree. Also the reason for the “ Pal “ relationship of the elder Bush and Clinton.
Telling someone about Hillary last night; he thinks it's all a “conspiracy theory”. Sure is convenient that Bernie Sanders supporter Seth Rich just happens to drop dead and the leaks to Wikileaks stop just a little before the Democrat nomination.
Just. Another. Convenient. Coincidence.
I was just telling someone about the former prostitute girlfriend of Bill - too bad the house burned down on her and her husband. As usual, gotta go to the British Press to get the story.
EXCLUSIVE: How Bill Clinton’s Penthouse Pet lover died in a mysterious house fire that her sister believes was started to cover up her affair with the then Arkansas governor
When I was a TV Producer, I had the honor of hanging off of Ben Seal’s helicopter skid pad to shoot a documentary about the Mississippi Delta. He is Barry’s brother and he’s flown for tons of movies, including LIVE AND LET DIE. Great guy and I’m so glad you mentioned the movie. Can’t wait to see it!
People who made the donations knew: ‘those who pay get service ‘. No overt agreements were required.
Whenever Obama’s FBI got involved in an investigation you could be fairly certain that the object was to ‘secure embarrassing information’ and thereby prevent it’s release. Given that the senior leadership is changing very slowly I don’t have a whole lot of confidence that this FBI investigation is going to amount to much.
oh..they are going to cover it.
