The Justice Department has launched a new inquiry into whether the Clinton Foundation engaged in any pay-to-play politics or other illegal activities while Hillary Clinton served as Secretary of State, law enforcement officials and a witness tells The Hill.

FBI agents from Little Rock, Ark., where the Foundation was started, have taken the lead in the investigation and have interviewed at least one witness in the last month, and law enforcement officials said additional activities are expected in coming weeks.

The officials, who spoke only on condition of anonymity, said the probe is examining whether the Clintons promised or performed any policy favors in return for largesse to their charitable efforts or whether donors made commitments of donations in hopes of securing government outcomes.

The probe may also examine whether any tax-exempt assets were converted for personal or political use and whether the Foundation complied with applicable tax laws, the officials said.

The Wall Street Journal reported late last year that several FBI field offices, including the one in Little Rock, had been collecting information on the Clinton Foundation for more than a year.

The Counter Attack Begins

Original Draft of Comey Memo heavily edited by "subordinates" to remove references to felonies and misdemeanors, phrases like "reasonably likely" (that the server was hacked) changed to "Possibly". And of course the "Gross Negligence" was changed (because Gross Negligence opens the door to prosecution or administrative penalties) to "Extremely Careless"
http://thehill.com/policy/national-security/367528-comeys-original-clinton-memo-released-cites-possible-violations "Extremely Careless" alteration revealed months ago:

Gee, I wonder if some of those "subordinates" names might be familiar to us from the Mueller Investigation and OIG emails.

Oh, one more thing.


Well, that all really doesn't matter, well, because, ahhhh, hhmmmm, oh, I know, Trump's a racist (and eats McDonalds)!

So your claim is Bannon loves Hillary Clinton and wants to protect her by releasing a book about Trump's treason this week?

You guys are getting harder to follow.

In a TOTALLY unrelated piece of news, a house fire broke out at the Clinton estate in NY two days ago.
I’m sure it had nothing to do with burning evidence.

Her house caught fire within hours of the announcement. I bet Manafort wishes he had a heads up so he could have burned his evidence.

Huh? Trump's former Chief strategist accusing him of treason and incompetence isn't the biggest news story right now and shouldn't be getting huge coverage? What the hell?

Sources are important. A widely discredited political writer isn’t exactly unimpeachable with his fictionalized accounts of the election. What people did or didn’t say is not able to be determined by the assertion of this one man.

Um okay. So a demand letter from Trump's lawyers was for nothing? Trump going crazy was for nothing? I've heard of suspending disbelief before but this is ridiculous.

Just another Coinky-Dink only Conspiracy Theoriest who are like, Literal Misogynist Nazis, would believe.

The Counter Attack is definitely on. The Smart thing is to wait until Late Summer/Early Fall to drop the big bombs, just before the Elections.

Remember Wasserman's Computer?

Watch DWS try to strong arm the Police to return the "laptop of a (House) member" i.e. Her Laptop.www.youtube.com/embed/MrRQMYqpYG8

That was in the possession of the Awan Brothers, who apparently left it in an office building.

But now, DWS says it's not her laptop after all.

Yet:
Nonetheless, the officer opened the MacBook and found that its login screen did not have Awan’s username, but rather “RepDWS.”

http://dailycaller.com/2017/09/06/exclusive-did-imran-want-capitol-police-to-find-wasserman-schultzs-laptop/
The above link has a huge list of all the Dem Representatives the Awan Family was hired to do IT work for (and attendant access to passwords, emails, etc.)

Trump's recent tweet about Pakistan is another impregnated tweet: Get the Media to talk about how wonderful Pakistan is and how crazy Trump is. Then weeks, months later, the Awan Brothers are in Court and it comes out they sold, transferred information directly from House Members to Pakistani contacts or at least threatened to do so if not paid.

Considering the author of that book is a self admitted liar, do yo-u believe every thing yo-u read on the Internet?

Here is the relevant part of the note, from the 10th page of the book's prologue:

"Many of the accounts of what has happened in the Trump White House are in conflict with one another; many, in Trumpian fashion, are baldly untrue. These conflicts, and that looseness with the truth, if not with reality itself, are an elemental thread of the book.

I still don't understand and the Trump people keep muddying the water on this.

How is this a left wing offensive when the biggest players making all the headlines are Bannon, Bannon's publisher, Donald Trump, and Trump's lawyers? You don't think this is the story? You think Trump is the mayor of a town in Nebraska with 8000 people?
14   Shaman   2018 Jan 5, 1:13pm  

Bannon didn’t write the book claiming to “quote” him. If you don’t understand something, you might want to check your assumptions.

Check out the second post, I'm suggesting it's Trump launching a counter-offensive.

Regards to "coinky-dink", I'm suggesting Ceffer's reference of a mysterious Fire in Chappaqua, ties into "Oh shit, he's opening all these new investigations", let's destroy some evidence. Maybe the wipe, like with a cloth, rags caught on fire. Funny timing, that!

DoofusRicky says
It's just amazing to me. So Bannon sits idly by as the media and the publisher commit brutal slander against his former good friend in his name. This is what you think is happening? It's not like Bannon is in media silence or anything. He's running Breitbart.

I don't know if Bannon is Trump's "Good Friend", but I'm not so sure WHAT is going on with Wolff. He seems to be hated by a segment of the Media for "Hyper-Cynicalism" and "Fabrication".

But it could also be Sun-Tsu:

Lay out bait for the enemy. Feign Disorder. Then Strike.

Mercer invited Bannon to a party in October. She cut off funding, but she could always give again. A thousand possibilities, including it looks like what it is.
16   Shaman   2018 Jan 5, 2:04pm  

Clearly Doofus is trying to spin this while acting dumb. I’m not fooled.

So sniper believes an anonymous claim is an important story, bigger than a book about the inner workings of team trump? What happened to anonymous being bad? You clowns can't have it both ways.
20   anonymous   2018 Jan 5, 5:11pm  

No one cares whether this country was taken by a hostile regime with high treason by a kleptocrat and family devoting his time to silencing his critics. --this is just not a priority.

Fuck Bannon! He lost his status as the anointed one from most high.

Who is privy to the secret strategies now? Infowars? 4Chan? Sniper?
21   anonymous   2018 Jan 5, 5:11pm  

Better question: why all the Clinton noise? Perhaps the Russia collusion probe is getting awfully close to the danger zone.

If the Russian Collusion Probe was going anywhere, we wouldn't be hearing about Mental Illness and the 25th Amendment yet again.

They only get off the #RussianCollusion wagon when it's stalled.

Now, to the ignore list.
