CLINTON STILL IN HOT WATER? – AT 10:16 A.M. ET: Apparently, Hillary Clinton's legal troubles are not over. And this involves Bill and Chelsea as well. From Daily Caller:
Officials at FBI headquarters instructed its New York field office to continue its corruption investigation into the Clinton Foundation following the election of Republican candidate Donald Trump, according to a former senior law enforcement official.
The instructions ordered agents to “go forward” with their ongoing inquiry into the Clinton Foundation which is focusing on issues of corruption and money laundering, according to the source.
“There were no instructions to shut it down, to discontinue or to stand down on the investigation, but to continue its work,” the former official told the Daily Caller News Foundation in an interview.
He said he received this information about a week ago and that the order originated from the bureau’s headquarters in Washington, D.C. well after the November 8 election. He did not know who at FBI Headquarters issued the order.
The same source broke the news to The DCNF that the FBI was conducting a multi-city probe of the foundation in as many as five cities: New York, Little Rock, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles and Miami. The source did not know the status of the bureau’s work in the four other cities.
COMMENT: In a way, this story is inevitable. It would be legitimately suspicious if the FBI shut down the investigation simply because the election was over. If there were suspected legal violations, the probe should continue regardless of the political scene.
The Clintons "earned" an estimated $95-million since Bill Clinton left the White House. Obviously, those who wrote the checks weren't buying good government. I'd like to know exactly what they were buying, and how much they got.
