FBI SEIZES DOCUMENTS IN CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION OF HILLARY CLINTON SENATE CAMPAIGN
Storage Facility Raided, Clinton Photographs and Documents Seized
Search Warrant Sought Documents Related to Hillarys Campaign For Senate, Hollywood Tribute To Bill Clinton, Hillarys Campaign Finance Director Also Targeted
(Washington, DC) Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, reported that the FBI seized documents relating to Hillary Clintons campaign for the U.S. Senate. The documents were seized in a May 30 raid of a California storage facility containing documents of Peter Paul, the entrepreneur who funded Hillary Clintons Senate campaign with over $2 million dollars in direct, in-kind contributions which were never reported by Hillary Clinton or her Senate campaign, as required by law. Mr. Paul's money funded the August, 2000 production of The Hollywood Gala Farewell Tribute To President Clinton, which featured many Hollywood stars. Mr. Pauls support for the event was also publicly denied by Mrs. Clinton in The Washington Post and in a debate with then opponent Rick Lazio. The government is seeking the cooperation of Mr. Paul, who is in a Brazilian prison pursuant to an U.S. extradition request on alleged stock and bank fraud. Mr. Paul has already provided evidence to Justice Department investigators in Brazil about the criminal activity of Bill and Hillary Clinton. Mr. Paul told the Department of Justice about the documents and storage facility ten months ago, and had provided them with documentation (checks, videos, financial statements) of his work for the Clintons in early 2001. Mr. Paul donated the over $2 million to the Clinton campaign as part of a $17 million offer to Bill Clinton to work with him after he left the Oval Office.
The search warrant authorizing the FBI raid of the storage facility specifically references the Clintons and the New York Senate campaign. The search warrant authorizes the seizure of:
Records relating to New York Senate 2000, the Hollywood Gala Salute to President William Jefferson Clinton, the Federal Election Commission, David Rosen and Aaron Tonken...
(David Rosen was the Director of Finance for Hillary Clintons Senate campaign, and Aaron Tonken is a Democrat fundraiser who raised money for the Clintons. Both men have knowledge of Mr. Pauls contributions.
)
Mr. Paul could have turned the documents about the Clintons over to the FBI months ago under a cooperation agreement. Instead, he waits in a Brazilian dungeon for the Ashcroft Justice Department to get serious about this corruption case. So it is a welcome sign that the Justice Department is turning up the heat on this new crime scandal concerning the Clintons, stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman.
Attorney General John Ashcroft received 59,535 petitions late last year from Judicial Watch supporters protesting Mr. Pauls disparate treatment and demanding full justice against the Clintons in this new scandal.

Indeed, as the district court pointed out, the statute would appear to permit representation of private individuals as long as a government interest is at stake. Hall II, 143 F. Supp. 2d at 4 (citing Brawer v. Horowitz, 535 F.2d 830, 834 (3d Cir. 1976) (it "approaches the frivolous" to argue that "the Department of Justice possesses no statutory or regulatory authority [under section 517] to represent a non-government defendant in a civil case")). Therefore, even if Clinton were a purely private citizen at all times relevant to Hall's suit--and, arguably, she was not *fn4--it was well within the DOJ's discretion to determine that the United States has (and continues to have) an interest in representing the former First Lady in litigation based upon actions she allegedly undertook while at the White House.

If you've got something to say to me, say it online; the last time I talked to you in private freepmail you told somebody I threatened you; I'm not taking that chance again.

You know what? He is opening up an office in Chicago and others elsewhere in the future; Judicial Watch needs to prepare financially for these ventures.
Also, as with any other non-profit organization, if they expect to survive at all, their assets must exceed their liabilities.
To: Howlin
What I think is that some people are getting some bad information somewhere.Here's what I think: Some people are so eager and determined to fan the flames of hysteria and dissatisfaction with the Bush presidency that they spin nearly everything he does to make it into something negative. This bit with the DOJ is a perfect example. You'd think Bush ordered this personally and was doing it out of some secret love for The Beast. As if!
To: Howlin
You know what Howlin? I still have that Freepmail and made copies of it.
To: FreedominJesusChrist
I have mine, too.

Which is fine. I never threatened you. You called me a shill in that letter and then claimed that you would pass my information along to the ACU, insinuating that you would make it hard for me to get a job. Good luck trying to defend that move on your part Howlin.
To: FreedominJesusChrist
I stated a fact: you were slandering David Keene. And I told you you might want to rethink your position, since you told me you were interested in getting a job in D.C.

You told me to re-think my position by telling me that you were going to pass my information along to the ACU, insinuating that you were going to make it hard for me to get a job. Like I said Howlin, when you wrote me that Freepmail, you sort of scared me, so I passed the letter on.
Howlin, believe it or not, you have absolutely zero control over what happens in my life.
To: Howlin
Well, David Keene is not the President of the ACU any longer. And I wasn't slandering David Keene, I was telling the other side of what went on at C-PAC.
To: FreedominJesusChrist
Characterize it however you want; and if I scared you, it was because the things you posted were not true -- I believe I even told you that there were people on this site that actually were there and knew what happened so you might want to be careful about what you said, in the interest of your own credibility.

To: Howlin
Fine and believe it or not, I was listening to you, until you threatened to turn in my information to the ACU.
Howlin, if you really want me to listen to you or to even believe what you say, you have to understand that you were not going about it the right way with those veiled threats. You, having been a mother, should know that.
Yes, I know that I am young and still have a lot to learn in life, but please understand my point of view for once.
To: Howlin
Obviously we do not agree on the David Keene subject, fine. I prefer to leave it at that. You respect your sources, I respect mine (Judicial Watch ad). Please understand that.
To: FreedominJesusChrist
That is the second time you have brought up my son and me "having been a mother."
You are not quite what you appear to be. And that is NOT discussing politics.

To: Howlin
There are many subjects on this forum that aren't necessarily political.
You always seem to have this notion that I am someone else, things aren't as complicated as they seem.
To: Howlin
You told me about your son, remember?
To: Howlin
I do not believe in playing the facade game Howlin, and I do not believe that you do either.
I just am who I am, perhaps that is what is so hard for you to believe.

I did a "search" of this thread and cannot find the word "BeAChooser". Help?

I don't think ANYONE is taking cheap SHOTS at anyone here.
Let's stay ON topic and not get into a PISSING match over something that NO ONE on this thread understands, including ME.
by the way, my name is RON BROWN.
Put that in your pipe and SMOKE it.

I have dents in my montior from reading this thread.
