Flashback: When Obama-Era DOJ Killed the Clinton Foundation Probe,Some FBI Investigators Were trunc

On Friday, I addressed new reports that federal officials may be revisiting the Clinton email scandal -- writing that while serious questions remain about some of the curious irregularities surrounding the original investigation (which resulted in no charges), Democrats may have a point when they suggest that President Trump's ostentatious public demands for a new probe of 'Crooked Hillary' call into question the apolitical nature of the DOJ's decisions. Trump's critics are leveling the same accusation over the revelation that the Clinton Foundation is also receiving renewed legal scrutiny. In case you missed it last week, here are the basics of that development:

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. The probe may also examine whether any tax-exempt assets were converted for personal or political use and whether the Foundation complied with applicable tax laws, the officials said. One witness recently interviewed by the FBI described the session to The Hill as “extremely professional and unquestionably thorough” and focused on questions about whether donors to Clinton charitable efforts received any favorable treatment from the Obama administration on a policy decision previously highlighted in media reports.

If we think of all the DOJ liberal scumbags who have been in senior positions in recent years (like Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, Sally Yates, Bruce Ohr, Andrew Weissman, et al.), whichever “career prosecutors” were staring down the FBI agents seeking to develop a case on the Clinton Foundation were most certainly Democrat tools and not independent minds.

There is irrefutable proof that Hillary took money in exchange for favors. In fact, she demanded money in exchange for favors.

There is an email trail documenting Hillary Clinton's demand that the Crown Prince of Bahrain donate 16 million dollars to the Clinton Foundation in order to get a meeting scheduled on her calendar. He then donated another 16 million after the meeting.

Hillary Clinton referred all people and heads of state who wanted a meeting with her to the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Foundation rainmakers and tree shakers were her official scheduling department to get an meeting with her on high level Secretary of State topics.

Heck, even Germany and Great Britain were caught donating huge sums of money to the Clinton Foundation.

The book Clinton Cash (spend 8 bucks and read it) could be used as a reference book for this investigation. It's all in there, with footnotes to the sources.

The answer is “yes” to all the questions Benson reports that the “new” inquiry will be “examining”.

Every question in the above excerpt has been reported and answered for years. The cause and effect of pay to play has been crystal clear.

What lacks is the dang will for criminal charges, trials and convictions.

Agents in the New York FBI field office were at odds with Washington HQ over the Clinton investigation and were voicing their disgust to Rudy Giuliani and others.

If the title is true, then those investigators found stuff and they knew that folks were on the way to prison.

Another Clinton-Janet Reno coverup was how Reno quashed over 200 indictments of the NY Crime families (Gambino/Gotti/Gigante - NJ) etc. by the major Organized Crime Task Force re Assets Seizures of major mob-controlled unions (LIUNA, Teamsters, etc.

Clintons/Reno stabbed US DA for So. NY Mary Jo White, in the back after she was ready to bring down the Laborers International Union of North America and affiliated mob-unions also in Chicago, New Jersey, etc.

The story is largely told in the American Spectator, April 1977, Byron York, “Let’s Be Friends: A Mob-Controlled Union Delivers the Goods for Bill” (and Hillary and the DNC/Dem. Senatorial Campaign Committee) to the tune of over $3.5 million dollars, at minimum.

I worked on that Task Force and York filled in the details of what was discovered after I had finished my work on it.

Get York’s article and you’ll see how the Clintons and Reno corrupted the work of the FBI, IRS, Treasury, and other federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies.

And, if you get a chance, try and find the old Arts & Entertainment documentary on Gotti, Carmine Serpico (who had a mistress on the side and visited her several times a week while his real wife stayed home and cooked), Fusco, Coia Sr., Hoffa’s stepson, etc.

The corruption of the Clintons and their lapdancing DOJ syncophants is one of the greatest stories of dishonesty in American history. Reno’s dead now, but her legacy lived on under Obama/Holder and Lynch and their underlings in Dossiergate, but this time they corrupted the whole top leadership of the FBI, something the Clintons couldn’t do.

If the whole story of the Clintons/Obama/Holder/Lynch cabal of crooks were ever told, it would destroy the Democrat Party forever. And that is only the criminal activities side of the Dems. The treason side is even worse.

Thanks for the additional info!--some of that we've discussed before :-) The Clintons' mob ties went back to Arkansas, of course (and in Hillary's case I seem to recall some Illinois connections before that); Harold Ickes was one of the Clintons' cutouts to the mob, as you know; the 1996 campaign financing scandal is another aspect of that. Then we've got Obama in Chicago--maybe Trump should give Blagojevich immmunity to talk. . .

The lesbian quotient is almost a hundred percent in that photo. And the beta/metro/gayboy ratio is also very high.
