John Durham, the Connecticut U.S. attorney who is spearheading an investigation into the origins of the Russia probe, has branched out to look into allegations that the Clinton Foundation broke the law.
The New York Times reported that Durham's team has reached out to law enforcement officials about the Clinton probe and how they conducted the investigation that began in 2015. Among other claims, the organization is alleged to have sought donations in exchange for backing the sale of the Canadian company Uranium One, which had links in the U.S., to the Russian atomic energy agency Rosatom.
No evidence has been discovered that warrants indictments being issued in the matter, despite claims from President Donald Trump and other Republicans that the Clintons — former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton — were corrupt.
Durham's team is investigating how and why, beginning under former President Barack Obama, the Department of Justice kicked off its Russia probe that targeted several people connected to Trump and his campaign.
The request to learn about the Clinton probe is an effort to compare how the two investigations were conducted, according to the Times. But some view it as evidence that the Durham investigation is political in nature and is designed to help Trump — who defeated Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.
The Clinton Foundation told the Times, "The Clinton Foundation has regularly been subjected to baseless, politically motivated allegations, and time after time these allegations have been proven false."

Let me see, 2015 is five years ago. Where have they been since then??
Will we have his report by, maybe, 2025?
‘
Alexander Downer, from Australia, paid by Chinese, was instrumental in the Coup, and he raised Millions for the Clinton Foundation.
‘
A bold claim.
Democrat investigations sure run slow...
Seems like instead of “branching out,” Durham should be finishing up to get indictments as soon as possible. Very, VERY tired of waiting.
Barr said “by the end of summer.” Flash: summer ended Tue, 9/22/20. LETS GO!!
Isn't that some kind of oxymoron?
Or is it one of those "but then I repeat myself" phrases?
Either way, it is a Capt. Obvious statement.
If Durham doesn’t have any indictments before the election, we’ll never see any indictments - (as Joe says) PERIOD!!!
I’ll put my money on one day after the statute of limitations runs out.
it is right in their name... clinton foundation... of course all the money went to the clintons.
Wasn’t 2015 when Obama started the war on cops in Ferguson???
He’s dragging this out as long as he can. If Biden wins ,the so called investigation will vanish into thin air.
Durham looks at Clintons.
“Nothing to see here.”
That’s about the size of it.
A tautology, I believe.
barr, durham, graham, GOP - ALL are useless.
Someone more knowledgeable in the legal process explained a while back on an FR thread about how both statute of limitations works (I think it was explained that the clock stops once an investigation begins) and how a different clock on timely due process starts once an indictment is handed down. So timing is important since to make the indictment or arrest, you have a relatively short time to get evidence in order to begin the court process. It remains to be seen if Durham is delaying to sweep things under a rug, or if he is delaying because the enemy has had years to hide or destroy evidence, and making a solid case is important.
It would be helpful if some of the legal experts on FR could comment as my understanding above is not from extensive knowledge or experience with this.
*yawn*
Hopefully this won’t delay the release his investigation of the O’bummer coup attempt investigation.
