Some believe that soon after Tuesday's final presidential primaries the FBI will interview Hillary Clinton about her handling of emails while she was secretary of state. What comes next is the subject of much speculation.
[Snip]
[Bush White House staff member Bradley] Blakeman says the FBI has deliberately waited to interview Hillary Clinton until after the primaries because the bureau did not want to interfere with the nominating process. He thinks the FBI is "likely" to recommend to the Department of Justice whether or not she should be indicted for violating what she says are agency rules and what others call the law between now and the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, which begins July 25.
If she is indicted before the convention, Blakeman says, it will give the party an opportunity to make changes in the rules that could result in an alternate nominee.
Here is the intriguing part about Blakeman's scenario: "If a grand jury is empaneled, or if she were to be indicted before the convention, the Democrats would have to let her go." If an indictment were to come after the convention, he says, it presents a different problem because each state needs to certify their ballots before November. If an indictment occurs after the states have certified their ballots, it would be nearly impossible to replace Hillary Clinton with another candidate.
Here's where things might get even more interesting.

That’s a key point. I wonder if Obama is as clueless about Hillary’s racketeering as he is about other things.
Number one: She is not about to be indicted.
You just nailed why I am optimistic the Dems will push HRC out. If HRC’s presidential aspirations are derailed, everyone — Dems, Reps, criminal justice, citizens — will be inclined to say that she's suffered enough. However, if she plows along in the face of a special prosecutor pursuing potentially serious crimes, everyone could be on the hook down the road. Since almost no one has the stomach to go after Obama after he leaves office, the Dems are not going to want a messy situation. If the FBI report if damning, they'll want HRC to go away. Now, HRC will not want to go away, but she'll probably want the most generous pardons for herself and her cronies from Obama as he walks out the door, so that is what Obama will bargain with her for.
“Number one: She is not about to be indicted.”
exactly. and more unfortunately, she will become our next president. someone please explain why the polls were so wrong about Bernie’s chances in California? the same thing will happen to Trump this November. it’s not who votes but who counts the votes, and too many people behind the scenes want a return on their investment in Hillary.
What are the odds of government doing its job?!?
lots of $$$ coming out of the clinton “foundation” on this one...
COMEY will ask to indict on multiple grounds:
foundaiton criminal fraud. money laundering, tax evasion
national security statutory violations and espionage
and if he really wanted to go the distance... selling state secrets
and payola kickback for deals (like uranium one and weapons sales)
loretta / the holder “aint gonna prosecute my bros” clone will refuse to prosecute and that’s that...
Potential news is not news.
In words spoken from the Sultan of Brunei’s lavish Empire Hotel in 2000, President Bill Clinton told reporters that his post-presidency would be about making money: “Now I have a United States senator to support, I understand that’s an expensive proposition.”
Clinton traveled to Brunei with his daughter, Chelsea, for an economic summit that was also attended by leaders such as President Vladimir Putin of Russia and Jiang Zemin, then China’s president.
The sultan, known in Brunei as His Majesty Haji Hassanal Bolkiah, put on an exhibition of luxury for his summit guests. Four hundred ninety three new cars were purchased to transport the various dignitaries around town.
Perhaps the abundance of wealth had an effect on Clinton, who according to New York Times reporters also in Brunei, “made a strong case for his need to start producing some serious revenue flow.”
Forging a relationship with the Sultan of Brunei would aid him in that goal.
The government of Brunei contributed between $1 million and $5 million to the Clinton Foundation in 2002, which said that the donation went toward the construction of the Clinton Presidential Library in Arkansas.
Clinton would return to Brunei that same year—this time without his daughter.
Clinton was picked up at a Japanese naval base by Jeffrey Epstein and his private Boeing 727—known to many as either “the orgy jet” or “Lolita Express”—and flown to Brunei to visit with Sultan Bolkiah, according to flight records.
Epstein is a registered sex offender who would regularly host Clinton and many others at his private Caribbean island before being put in prison for sexually abusing underage girls around the globe.
He spent just 13 months in jail for the charges, though evidence is reported to have existed that could have led to more serious federal charges such as using his private jet for sex trafficking.
Two of the alleged “madames” linked to Epstein’s case—one of whom reached an immunity deal with prosecutors—were also aboard the flight to Brunei, according to the flight records.
Clinton stayed in the Emperor Suite of the sultan’s Empire Hotel, a $16,600 per night “football-field sized suite that features its own swimming pool and carpets flecked with real gold”
Clinton returned to Brunei in 2005, to thank Sultan Bolkiah for the donation he made to the Clinton library.
“I’m now going to Brunei for a private visit,” wrote Clinton on his personal blog. “I want to thank His Majesty the Sultan of Brunei, Hassanal Bolkiah for his generous donation to the Clinton library.”
The sultan, whose net worth was last estimated to be $20 billion, has held the throne in Brunei since 1967.
He owns a Boeing 747, which he purchased for $400 million and pilots himself. He is also the owner of an Airbus 340, 16 other planes, two helicopters, 9,000 luxury cars, and a palace with 1,788 rooms in it.
Also like Epstein, he has been accused of sexual wrongdoing. In 1997, he was sued by a former Miss USA who said she was held as a sex slave, drugged, and molested by Brunei’s royal family. The lawsuit was dropped after the Sultan and his brother claimed diplomatic immunity.
The sultan and his brother Prince Jefri have become “infamous for their sex parties and their harems composed mainly of underage girls.”
Jillian Lauren, who at 18 years of age was recruited for Jefri’s harem, wrote a book about her experience in which she claimed that “there’s no such thing as underage” in Brunei. Lauren also had sexual relations with the sultan.
The sultan, however, has also pushed the small country toward radical Sharia law over his decades-long reign.
The shift was accelerated on May 1, 2014, when he announced in a royal decree that “the enforcement of Sharia law phase one” has begun and would be “followed by the other phases.”
Crimes such as homosexuality, sodomy, adultery, and the discussion of faith by non-Muslims are now punishable by amputation of limbs, public flogging, or death by stoning.
This shift has made association with the sultan and the nation of Brunei a red flag in the progressive community.
Hollywood stars boycotted the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel, owned by the sultan, after Brunei formally adopted strict Islamic law. The City of Beverly Hills government even adopted a formal resolution urging him to divest from the hotel.
The hotel turned into a “ghost town,” as events hosted by the likes of Jeffrey Katzenberg were moved to other venues.
The Beverly Hills Hotel then hired Mark Fabiani, a former Clinton White House aide who handled crisis communications for the administration, to help it deal with the backlash.
The Clinton Foundation has previously stated that the contribution from Brunei was a “one-time donation” and that it does not expect any further donations. A request for comment about whether it has considered returning the money given Brunei’s turn towards repressive Sharia law went unreturned.
As secretary of state, Hillary Clinton traveled to Brunei in 2012 to “meet with senior officials to emphasize the importance of the increasingly vibrant U.S.-Brunei relationship.” She joined the sultan for dinner at one of his palaces.
Clinton also accepted $58,000 worth of jewelry from Brunei while she was with the State Department.
And you can bet the farm that if the Republican Party can deny the nomination to Donald, they will. Donald is going to have to fight the Republican Party, the main stream media, and the Democrat Party. He is currently fighting the Republican Party and the main stream media. Only the American People is for him. Will they gear up, get into the trenches and go toe to toe and fist fist with his enemies and their enemies is the question that remains to be answered.
Doesn’t matter if baraq knows or not.
Valerie Jarret and the Mooch know.
baraq is just the front man.
With Loretta Lynch at the helm I guess this will boil down to whether Obama and his overlord want another socialist to continue his destruction of the United Statex and how much he hates the Clintons. Tough call for a Communist dictator...
***Blakeman says the FBI has deliberately waited to interview Hillary Clinton until after the primaries because the bureau did not want to interfere with the nominating process.***
They won’t do anything more once she’s interviewed because they won’t want to interfere with the upcoming election process.
Nothing will happen to Hillary, nor to Bill. If anything, it will happen to underlings. Nothing touches the Teflon kid and his spouse. Nothing.
“They won’t do anything more once she’s interviewed because they won’t want to interfere with the upcoming election process.”
Do you think that the FBI NEVER will release a report on HRC?
Dick Nixon was a choirboy compared to the beast.
Liberals have certainly read the Constitution.
They have even studied it.
Its a know your enemy type of thing for them.
And no, they do not support the Constitution, they undermine it at every opportunity.
They have taken the death by a thousand cuts route.
Which set a bad precedent.
A very, very bad precedent.
No one should be able to pardon someone without a conviction first.
But now we have to live with it.
I have little confidence in any of the alphabet government agencies.
