The FBI expands its Hillary Clinton email scandal investigation to include The Clinton Foundation
Despite what her defenders are saying the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email scandal is not just a partisan attack or merely just part of the vast right wing conspiracy that has been dogging Hillary Clinton and her husband since the 90’s. In order to push this angle the former Secretary of State’s defenders focus on the Congressional inquiry which is run by Republicans while ignoring the fact the FBI has opened up a criminal investigation seeking to determine if Federal law was broken by passing on classified information on a non-secure email server.
In addition to that the FBI is also reportedly looking into possible Espionage Act violations and now, if this story is true, the FBI is expanding its investigation to include The Clinton Foundation about the possibility of connection between the Clinton’s charity foundation and the State Department.
Here is more:
The FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of private email as secretary of state has expanded to look at whether the possible “intersection” of Clinton Foundation work and State Department business may have violated public corruption laws, three intelligence sources not authorized to speak on the record told Fox News.
This new investigative track is in addition to the focus on classified material found on Clinton’s personal server.
“The agents are investigating the possible intersection of Clinton Foundation donations, the dispensation of State Department contracts and whether regular processes were followed,” one source said.
The development follows press reports over the past year about the potential overlap of State Department and Clinton Foundation work, and questions over whether donors benefited from their contacts inside the administration.
Hillary Clinton is denying this report but then again she also denied the FBI was conducing a criminal investigation so take that for what it is worth.
As the block quote above stated, there have been numerous reports which seem to indicate a pay to play or quid pro quo scheme being run in the State Department during Hillary Clinton’s tenure there and if that is not bad enough for the Presidential hopeful pressure is growing from within the FBI to pursue charges against Hillary Clinton:
Inside the FBI, pressure is growing to pursue the case.
One intelligence source told Fox News that FBI agents would be “screaming” if a prosecution is not pursued because “many previous public corruption cases have been made and successfully prosecuted with much less evidence than what is emerging in this investigation.”
Of course people have a nasty habit of getting dead around the Clinton’s so I guess we will have to wait and see if anyone in the FBI has the courage to see this through until the end…

Considering that Obama’s toadies are still running the Department of Justice, it’s amazing that the investigation got this far.
I smell a cooking goose and I like it!

I hope that goose does get cooked but I still fear Obama’s DOJ will let her walk.

Ya, but what are they doing behind the scenes while we are focused on IF they are taking her out?

A very good question and now both Warren’s and Biden’s names are starting to pop up again, could there be something in the works?

Biden is making noises about regrets,hmmm. Sanders gaining ground, I say there just might be a coup underway. If she loses in Iowa and New Hampshire Attorney General Lynch just might get the high sign to take her out.

Didn’t Lynch say that even after this Administration is gone, it will live on by what they put into play already? I doubt she is too concerned with the future.
I have not decided if Obama is for or against Clinton, I see both of them playing out, but it could swing either way. Does she think she is secure in the nomination now? I have my doubts there, she is just not getting the “love” she expects from her “people”!

I think she is toast, which in the end may be bad for us. Better to slow this train down. Warren worries me.

Warren is someone I know just a little about, guess it would be good to brush up on her credentials. I know since she is a Lib, she has to be smart, right? After all, she is in the Senate, so doesn’t that automatically qualify her for the Presidency? I also forgot, she is Indian…so that sums up a very qualified ethnic female that could and should be President…forget about experience or knowledge,,,just small pesky details, those! Yes, I am absolutely sure we should all switch parties and back her. I am so glad I have come to that conclusion!

I just saw the headline about what Lynch said this morning Lou.
Warren is a far left moonbat who took credit for the mindset behind the Occupy Wall Street movement and Sanders has adopted much of her rhetoric during this campaign. All I need to know about her is that she lied about being an Indian in order to get ahead in life and I find that deplorable!

I think the wheels are falling off Clinton’s campaign at this point Bunkerville but with 52% of Democrats saying she should still run if she is indicted perhaps the reports of her demise are being greatly exaggerated…

It will also live on in the bureaucrats Obama has inserted into our government institutions.
Remember the guy who who got bounced from the EPA when he publicly said he was going to crucify some oil companies to keep the rest in line? That was years ago. How many of Obama’s moles are just keeping their heads down?
We will actually need a real purge, removing Obama appointees from government service. That’s a radical idea, but consider what we are facing.

Makes you wonder what department they were shuffled off to, for that “laying low” they do and still getting paid. Just like Obamacare, once things get a hold and people get moved around how do you take ahold of it and remove what is BAD?

That is true, Steve… I know Kennedy said he was not going to retire until Obama was out of office…I know he is the swing vote, but seems lately he has been voting with the liberals. I guess if one of the libs gets replaced it won’t do as much damage to us, but it will be with someone much younger, so you have the time factor again until they die off….sounds rough, I know, but it is a LIFETIME appointment, so how can you refer to it any other way? I am hoping that none of the conservative judges have any “accidents”, which is always likely. They should watch their backs for the next year!

I am also thinking there is something in the works. I do not think it is a given that if the FBI recommends charges the DOJ won’t pursue them. Like you said Bunkerville Obama could greenlight the hit on Hillary to help either Sanders, Biden, or Warren.
