FBI Reportedly Investigating Clinton Foundation

Federal officials reportedly have launched a new investigation into allegations of corruption at Bill and Hillary Clinton’s charitable organization.

The FBI and federal prosecutors aim to investigate whether the Clinton Foundation engaged in pay-to-play politics ― that is, whether the Clintons promised political favors in return for financial donations.

The primary location of the investigation will be Little Rock, Arkansas, where the foundation was started, an anonymous law enforcement official first told The Hill. Both the Justice Department and the U.S. attorney’s office in Arkansas declined to comment to CNN about the investigation.

The reopening of the investigation comes on the heels of the Justice Department’s move to also relaunch an investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server while she worked as secretary of state, The Daily Beast reported Thursday.

Hillary should demand to know if Trump pressured Sessions into opening this investigation!

The U.S. is now an authoritative society where it’s dictator, aka “POTUS”, can go after his political opponents.

Waste of taxpayers time and money.

are guilty and their attacks on the actual winner of the 2016 election will continue until we demand otherwise.

In all that is happening the power of the people is the most potent force we have. Until we actually use it the attacks on all of us, our institutions and our constitution will continue.

Democrats in congress will try to compromise, if the people also compromise we will lose-even if we win majorities in congress.

Putin is not going to give up, the would-be Lords of the Republican Party and their billionaires are not going to give up.Murdoch is not going to give up. (Consider how much they won-even when in the minority).

We know and they know Clinton-Kaine won the election.

I think even now many people don't see the full picture of what we are facing-but we are getting closer every day.
