The FBI Always Gets Its Man (or Woman) and May Still Get Hillary
Townhall.com ^ | August 10, 2016 | Ed Klein

A month has passed since FBI Director James Comey ripped into Hillary Clinton for the “extremely careless” way she handled classified emails while she was secretary of state, but stopped short of recommending that criminal charges be brought against her.

However, that doesn’t mean Hillary is out of the FBI woods.

According to a source close to Comey, Hillary is still the target of an active FBI criminal investigation, but this time around, the media aren’t paying much attention.

With little public fanfare, Comey’s agents have been looking into Hillary’s relationship with foreign businessmen and governments who donated millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation and are suspected of having received favors from the secretary of state in return.

Such pay-to-play behavior falls under the category of “public corruption,” and Comey’s agents are trying to determine whether Hillary conducted a series of secret meetings with foreigner donors separate from her duties as secretary of state.

Several people interviewed by the FBI have confirmed that Hillary did just that on numerous occasions while she was at the State Department.

“There are a sizable number of agents on this case,” said the source. “I don’t know exactly how many. It’s fewer than were assigned to the email case, but it’s still dozens of agents. By any measure, it’s a major investigation.

“Comey is taking every precaution against leaks while the investigation is ongoing. He’s ordered all the agents on the case to sign nondisclosure agreements and submit to random lie detector tests.

“While this public-corruption investigation is going on, the FBI is also looking into new information that, as a result of Hillary’s carelessness, hostile states like Iran hacked into her email system and compromised U.S. intelligence sources and personnel.

“Hillary shouldn’t imagine that she’s free and clear. Comey may have pulled his punches the last time around because he didn’t think his case was winnable in a court of law, but it’s possible that new evidence could shock the country and make Hillary a very vulnerable presidential candidate.”

Only way this plays out is if Hillary loses the election. Even the Donald knows the fix is in!

Not holding my breath.

The FBI has fully exposed its corruption and will not be trusted until the post CW-II -II reconstruction.

The FBI could have had their woman, but they didn’t want to.

All the more reason Trump NEEDS to be president. He damn sure wouldn’t pardon Hitlary.

Or it will take nine years to complete investigation and use four hundred agents.

The FBI still has PLENTY of stuff to go after the Clinton Crime Syndicate, er, the “Clinton Global Initiative”.

“Building on the successful model of the Clinton Global Initiative, President Clinton launched the Clinton Global Initiative University (CGI U) in 2007 to engage the next generation of leaders on college campuses around the world.
Each year, CGI U hosts a meeting where students, university representatives, topic experts, and celebrities come together to discuss and develop innovative solutions to pressing global challenges. Students create their own Commitments to Action that address issues on campus, in local communities, or around the world. Since 2008, students have made more than 6,250 commitments, and nearly $3 million in funding has been awarded to these commitment-makers through CGI U.”

And Donald Trump got taken to task for calling his course in financial investments and real estate operations the “Trump University”.

Comey is a Washington bureaucrat. He’s a player just like everyone else in DC who looks out for themselves. He’s already had his chance to take the high road but instead he opted for the ditch.

If Trump is elected Comey should be the first one to go. That will send a strong message to the rest of the corrupt denizens of DC.

Oh, come on!

Stop it! Stop it! STOP IT ALREADY!!!!!

Comey is NOT going to go after Hillary for the server, the foundation, or anything else in her sleazy little universe.

Lynch is not going to prosecute and Obama will allow none of the above. Win or lose she is getting a full pardon on January 19 and will skate away scot-free.

The foundation is especially problematic as the majority of Washington’s GOP establishment is likely ensnared in it as well.

There is no public fanfare because this is just Comey cleaning up loose ends, finishing the job he was hired-for or coerced into doing (clear Hillary).

Such pay-to-play behavior falls under the category of “public corruption,” and Comey’s agents are trying to determine whether Hillary conducted a series of secret meetings...

They'll sift through the mountain of evidence then absolve her with "oh, but there was no intent to commit a crime." So it's all good. This is just Comey being thorough and making sure nothing can come back and bite Clinton in her considerable backside. I can hear it now: "Pay to play? Oh, that? Why the FBI looked into it and cleared her just like that whole silly classified email business..."

.....Comey’s agents are looking into Hillary’s relationship with foreign businessmen and governments who donated millions to the Clinton Foundation.... suspected of receiving favors from SoS Hillary in return. Pay-to-play behavior falls under the category of “public corruption.” Could be Hillary may have conducted secret meetings with foreigner donors separate from her SoS duties......

MEMO TO THE FBI: Latest Hillary Email Scandal Reveals State Dept "Favors" To Clinton Foundation
ZeroHedge ^ | August 10, 2016 / FR Posted by Zakeet

In the latest installment over Hillary Clinton's email scandal, conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch released 296 pages of new emails from Hillary's personal server, most of which were not handed over as part of the 30,000 emails originally provided to the FBI. The emails were provided to Judicial Watch pursuant to a FOIA request.

These new emails, among other things, demonstrate how the Clinton Foundation and it's top donors sought favors from the State Department within 3 months of Hillary taking the Secretary of State position.

According to an article in the Wall Street Journal: "That the Clinton Foundation was calling in favors barely 3 months into Hillary Clinton's tenure at the State Department is deeply troubling, and it is yet another reminder of the conflicts of interest and unethical wheeling and dealing she’d bring to the White House," said Michael Short, a spokesman for the Republican National Committee, in a statement Tuesday.

The first request for a "favor" came in April 2009, just 3 months after Hillary was confirmed as Secretary of State on January 21, 2009.

[Snip]

So why were these emails not included in the original disclosure to the FBI? Could it be possible that Hillary believes that using her position as Secretary of State to setup meetings between former U.S. Ambassadors and shady international businessmen is somehow "personal" in nature?

Makes you wonder what else was excluded from the FBI disclosures that was purely "personal." (Excerpt) Read more at zerohedge.com ...

James Comey is a coward and a fraud. He will torpedo this case if Clinton is elected. If Trump is elected, he will offer it as a way to prosecute the Clintons and a reason to keep him as FBI Director.

A pardon is applicable only if there has been a conviction and sentencing. There is nothing applicable a president can do with an FBI case file full of evidence.
