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 Hillary’s Campaign For Senate, Hollywood Tribute To Bill Clinton, Hillary’s 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 Clinton’s 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 Clinton’s 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. Paul’s 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 Clinton’s Senate campaign, and Aaron Tonken is a Democrat fundraiser who raised money for the Clintons. Both men have knowledge of Mr. Paul’s 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. Paul’s disparate treatment and demanding full justice against the Clintons in this new scandal.

I can dream, but I'm not going to believe Hitlery will ever be taken down for her criminal acts until I see it. Taking a tiny bit of good news and proclaiming it the inevitable first step towards political utopia is the way DUers think. If they uncovered a term paper Bush did in 5th grade that he only got a C on, they'd declare it Papergate and jump up and down with glee about how it's certain to eventually cause the entire Administration to unravel and Bush to resign in Nixonian disgrace ... until they wake up the next morning and discover that nobody's talking about it, or even cares. Then they use that fact to say it's "proof" the media is controlled by the RNC.

I do not think Dubwa thinks there are thinking people in this country. I am not sure that he beleives that he was legally elected President. He is not acting like it. While he is trying to not anger or upset anyone on the left, he is leaving those of us that elected him scratching our heads, pounding our desks and asking WHAT! If he is trying to to the Ali "ROPE-A-DOPE" thing he may suceeding. Does he not know that today he has the power? But it is being lost, no squndered. The war against Terror has been a tremendous help for him in the polls. I think that the truth, prosecution and imprisonment of the Clinton's for their treason for their deeds would push his rating to 90%. Of course that is just my oppinion.. just like A/H we all have one. Tom

I think he's being blackmailed by Hildabeast or B.J. It just doesn't make sense any other way. Those two are ruthless and will do anything to get what they want.

My hopes are not up..

I will believe something significant will come of this when I see it.

(Been down this road weeeeey too many times already to get excited from the onset. )

I go one further to say I would like to see those handcuffs placed on her in the while she is in the middle of one of her speeches on the Senate floor.

[Bush2000]

C'mon, let's get real: Do any of us really think Senator "Queen of Mean" forgot to use her shredder on the really incriminating stuff?

Do any of us really think Senator "Queen of Mean" forgot to use her shredder on the really incriminating stuff?

Naaaaaaaaaaaa .. she had her staff do it for her

...HILLARY gets off Scot-Free from prosecutors looking into her Favors for Money in the A-Jews Case in New York saying that prosecutions would be "Inappropriate in this case."

...Then FBI goes in for HILLARY's Files...?

...Say WHAT...???

[Clara Lou]

Someone please explain to me Larry's accomplishment here. What has Larry done beyond making another JW announcement that the FBI seized documents? Why should Larry be cheered for what the FBI did?

[NYer]

Candidate Clinton giving speech on sanctuary floor in front of altar at St. Michaels Roman Catholic Church, Rochester, NY, October 2000. The usher would find Catholics he did not want to be in church for Hillary's rally. Then he would try to talk police into evicting person. Politicos and Mrs Clinton got more than they bargained for. Ten Catholics were escorted out of their own church, while 4 busloads of outsiders were brought in.

VILE = EVIL

Surely JW has copies of the documents in question. If they don't, they deserve to lose the freaking case because they are idiots!

[rwfromkansas]

I wish he would get to the bottom of Clinton also. I suspect there is so much more than we know about and Dubya is concerned about how it would affect the country if it was let out. But still, I think he should get them on something, even if not everything the Clintons did. Anything less lets people in power know crime pays.
