According to reporting from The Wall Street Journal, the Clinton Foundation was under investigation earlier this year by the FBI, but that investigation was stymied and may have been shut down completely by the Justice Department.
Early this year, four FBI field officesNew York, Los Angeles, Washington and Little Rock, Ark.were collecting information about the Clinton Foundation to see if there was evidence of financial crimes or influence-peddling, according to people familiar with the matter, reports The Wall Street Journal. In addition, the FBI was actively probing former Clinton Foundation board member and current Governor of Virginia Terry McAuliffe, but that matter was spun off into a separate investigation.
But in February, FBI officials met with the Justice Department to brief them on the investigation. Per WSJs source, the meeting didnt go well. While the FBI sought more sweeping methods of investigation, those siding with the FBIs position say the Justice Department was stern, icy and dismissive of the case.
In the end, anticorruption prosecutors at the Justice Department told the FBI at the meeting they wouldnt authorize more aggressive investigative techniques, such as subpoenas, formal witness interviews, or grand-jury activity.

Hmmm...maybe that little impromptu chat that BillyBob and the AG had wasn't to ask a favor but to say thanks for past favors.
Guiliani has said a lot about this....RICO applies. I believe him against everyone else.
The Just Us dept rolls along.
Hillary’s bringing out Harry Reid and Hold to say the FBI is braking the Law , LOL
Let’s get one thing clear. The foundation is actually a government in exile waiting to come to power
You’re right. The DOJ is “BRAKING” the law. Brought it to a screeching halt!
Many, or most of the big wigs at State are CONTRIBUTORS to the Clinton Slushfund, so naturally, they’d want to cover up the corrupt machinations happening there.

Clintons private email domain clintonemail.com was initially purchased by Clinton aide Eric Hoteham, who listed the Clintons Chappaqua, New York home as the contact address for his purchase. But the domain is actually registered to an Internet company designed to hide the true identity of the people running it.
Clintonemail.com is currently registered to a company called Perfect Privacy, LLC.
The company has a listed address of 12808 Gran Bay Parkway West in Jacksonville, Florida. But dont try to get someone from Perfect Privacy on the phone. The company merely serves to mask its clients personal information by providing its own meaningless contact information on official databases.
Did you know that every time you register a domain name, the law requires that your personal information is added to the public WHOIS database, where it becomes instantly available to anyone, anywhere, anytime?, according to the Perfect Privacy website. Perfect Privacy eliminates these risks by ensuring that your personal information stays private. By signing up for Perfect Privacy when you register your domain, our information is published in the WHOIS database, instead of yours.
We wont reveal your identity unless required by law or if you breach our Perfect Privacy Service Agreement, the company explains.
President Trump will fire most of the criminal Ivy League lawyers in the DOJ on his first day.
Later, his new FBI can investigate the fired Ivy League former DOJ lawyers for criminal actions. Maybe the FBI guys and gals attacked by the DOJ criminals will do the investigating of the former DOJ criminals.
The populace approves. That's why we're dead.
