FBI Issues Search Warrants at California Solar Firm Touted by Obama
Fox News ^ | September 8, 2011 | Staff

FBI Issues Search Warrants at California Solar Firm headquarters in Fremont as part of a joint operation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Department of Energy and the Office of Inspector General, FBI spokesman Peter Lee said.

Lee told FoxNews.com that "multiple search warrants" were executed but said he could not provide details on what prompted the investigation.

"Everything’s under seal," he said.

The investigation comes one week after the company laid off 1,100 workers and filed for bankruptcy. The solar-panel manufacturer is now being sued by workers who abruptly lost their jobs.

Solyndra LLC was once touted by President Obama as a beneficiary of his administration's economic policies.

This way they can hide all the records from the FOA filings and say they are part of a Criminal Investigation.

Obama has to get there before Issa—the last thing the crook wants is another Fast and Furious were he was way too slow with the cover-up.

The FBI sealed the documents.

They will never see the light of day UNLESS Congress demands them.

And on the same day as his “jobs” speech in front of a JSoC.

Yup, I agree. I mis-thunk it and now realize the true end-game objective, which is, putting the shredders into overtime.

I agree. Same thing Holder did about Fast and Furious.

Even then the most damning evidence will be destroyed.

The FBI is just a large political thug and infested with leftists.

Well, there goes the truth. Surgically removed by the FBI, a division of the Department of Justice, headed by the racist Eric Holder, who doesn’t see how he could possibly handle 2 coverups at a time.

When the news first broke that they were going belly-up my beady little mind said that they took the “stimulus” money ans used at least part of it to get their manufacturing processes worked out.

Next they feign bankruptcy, let all the help go; and sometime down the road the whole operation mysteriously turns up in CHINA......where they INTENDED to actually do their manufacturing right from the git-go!
