Halperin: White House Buzzing About FBI Investigation of Hillary Clinton
The Weekly Standard ^ | JAN. 29, 2016 | By DANIEL HALPER

Posted on 01/29/2016 6:58:18 AM PST by Hojczyk

Bloomberg's Mark Halperin reported this morning on MSNBC that the White House is buzzing about the FBI's investigation of Hillary Clinton. Halperin also said that the FBI will likely interview Clinton.

"Yeah," said Bloomberg's Mark Halperin, "well, there are three things people are keying off of.

There's a lot of chatter amongst FBI agents, many of whom have never been big fans of the Clintons, but a lot of FBI agents seem to be saying something is happening here.

Second is, from a legal point of view, you look at some of the recent developments we've talked about here on the program, it's hard to see how the Justice Department, the FBI, doesn't want to interview Secretary Clinton. And that interview alone, short of an indictment, short of anything else, that would be a huge political development and would undermine confidence in some Democrats in the notion of going forward with Secretary Clinton.

And the last thing is, there are some people in the White House are starting to talk about this. It's not clear whether they know what's happening or it's just their intuition but the body language among some Obama administration officials is, this is more serious and something is going to happen. Again, the timing of it could be if not cataclysmic pretty bad for Secretary Clinton if Senator Sanders is still alive."

They’re biding time while the Uncle Joe presidential apparatus is ready to go. There is no way that Team Obama will allow the Clintons to regain control of the Democratic Party again. Besides, looking at both Bubba and Shrillary they don’t look well and I don’t think they can make it through another long investigation. Team Obama holds all the cards now. Shrillary’s presidential chances are toast! She’ll be out of the race soon.

Is the reporter making a subtle dig about Age or Sanders being Fosterized

Do you think the possibility of Hussein 0bama's appointment to SCOTUS in a Hillary administration might be the price of pulling the plug on any investigation?

No need for anything to happen to a perfectly good airplane.

All talk and no action.

Normally I would agree with you.

But this one is different because the U.S. Government Intelligence Community has a huge stake in the outcome and a lot of power. That includes people from the FBI, CIA, NSA, DIA and God only knows how many other agencies we don't even know about. These guys put their careers and very often their lives on the line when they agree to maintain the secrecy of their activities. They are not going to remain silent if Hillary is not indicted.

So Obama is either between a rock and a hard place or, more likely IMHO, right where he wants to be: In position to name whoever he wants to succeed him as President. Could be Biden. Could be Bernie. Could be John Kerry. Could be anyone that Obama wants. Or, if you are a real conspiracy nut it could be Donald Trump. (Just kidding, sort of).

Interesting times for sure.

Depends on whether she agrees to Obama’s demands to assume full puppet mode and become the Third Term of Barack.
