EXCLUSIVE: Joint FBI-US Attorney Probe Of Clinton Foundation Is Underway

Submitted by birdiemom87 on Fri, 08/12/2016 - 2:28am

Boy, do I ever hope this one is true, but believing any of these things is very difficult now. I was just reading somewhere that FBI field offices are asking for Clinton Foundation investigation. Makes sense, they have been smeared by what Comey has done, and they also live here, too. Guess we will see. I don't care for the source, but many times now, the truth comes from strange places.

http://dailycaller.com/2016/08/11/exclusive-joint-fbi-us-attorney-probe-...

Another oddity, here's a new CNN piece, which alludes to FBI field offices, too, even though what they wanted at the time did not appear to go anywhere.

It looks like he is going after the Foundation, per Saturday article in Inquisitr:

Per the story, this will be NY based rather than out of Washington.

there will be so many folks going to jail they would have to pardon everyone from a large prison to make room.

The Clinton's have learned the secret to corruption and fraud, make it so large and taint so many people with Clinton Goo that you become bullet proof Sad

and that's the whole problem. The Clintons, and other insiders are completely immune from prosecution, unless we can somehow convince Lynch to act against them. Hillary could shoot someone on live national television, and she wouldn't go to jail. No one would indict her.

I wish the DOJ answered to Congress, rather than the executive branch, but that fatal flaw in the Constitution will destroy the republic.

"too big to jail" is just another bullshit propaganda point. There is plenty of jail space available in this country for these craven, corrupt bastards to be assigned a cell all their very own.

The government is long-overdue to be Revolutioned. If it is this bad

there will be so many folks going to jail

So be it. Burn it down and start all over again. It's the only way.

if you spend all your time being concerned, you'll never get a thing accomplished.

Holding people hostage with the idea that "Oh, if you do this, What If You Get Beat Worse" is stupid, IMO. If you do nothing, nothing will change. It is long past time to stop doing nothing.

Burn. It. Down. Start. Again.

I plan on voting for Jill. I am on my own dime to work politics, yet corporations have paid entire squads of lawyers for working to get the law shaped to a desired end. What makes you think you can counter that? Appealing to people? You open up the Consititution to such interference, and I guarantee all the protections We the People have will be eliminated in favor of the corporatists.

Burning it all down only opens the way for opportunists to take power and eliminate any competition. 20th Century China should have been enough proof of what I say, where the war lords fought each other for power and control once the Emperor was toppled. They couldn't even fight off Japan, who had inferior numbers, because they were too busy fighting each other.

That will happen here in the US if it's allowed to erupt. Be careful what you wish for.

To not fight battles you can't win, but to save your strength and manpower for a battle of your choosing.

I am far more inclined to adopt a strategy based on the precepts of martin Luther king's Mountaintop Speech than I am walking into a corporatist SWAT riot control detail. Have you forgotten Seattle in 1999 already? The cops now have even better and more effective weapons - and we know they no longer hold back when a trigger can be pulled.

From a position where you can gather strength.

Currently, the PTB have adopted a method of pacification which has resulted in the development of "Part-Time" soldiers, as exemplified by the insurgencies of Iraq and Afghanistan and Syria. Essentially adopting more of Mao's techniques, taken to the extreme.

The funny thing is that by creating this "Total Annihilation" strategy of response to any organized and non-violent protest, the elites have essentially created a low level smoldering of resentment that will lead to similar developments here.

Of course, that's just your standard Armchair historian analysis.

if not one way, then another. It won't likely happen through mass dissatisfaction, at first, but will either be through overreach regarding war, wherein it becomes unsustainable, or through the collapse of the dollar, which means game over for the banksters.

I firmly believe that the aggressive talk against Russia is mostly to jockey for control of resources, to make the game last a little longer.

you cannot control the outcome. Period. Therefore, you have nothing to lose in trying.

We are not 20th Century China, so....sorry, not buying that. Not even a little bit. There will be no convincing us to sit around and wait much longer. It's not about anybody "wishing" for anything. I'm not sure what you're trying to stave off, but I'm afraid your concerns are falling on deaf ears (or "eyes", as it were....). Thank you for your concern, though!

I think it was Jay Gould who said:

"I can always hire one half of the working class to kill the other half."

Once the social contract is irreparably broken this country will shatter like a sheet of tempered glass.Regional,political,ethnic.religious,and class animosities will be weaponized.Unfortunately,based on current economic,political,and environmental trends that appears to be the likely outcome.

Have always been key techniques of the corporatists. If anything makes them wake up screaming in the middle of the night, I imagine it's the thought that the left and right might realize that their differences aren't as great as they were told, and they turn their joint attention to their common enemy.

The ruling class lives in fear of a genuine working class uprising.That's why both parties try to repress the popular will by manipulating the electoral process.

their common struggle against a rigged system — that's when and where the interests of the 99% will finally start to prevail.

The elites *love* how easy it has become to milk and bilk the 99% when the latter so obligingly self-segregate — presenting as a bunch of emotionally easily-manipulated injustice-collecting minorities divided by competing claims and accusations of historical guilt.
