OMG! FBI Is Investigating More: "Coordinating her activities & ...Clinton Foundation"

[amborin]

The scale of the FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s emails could force the probe past the election, Rep. Darrell Issa told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday

snip

But when it comes to investigating "coordinating her activities and President Clinton's activities and Chelsea's activities in the Clinton Foundation, they're probably going to have to leave that until after the election."

Earlier this year, the probe into Clinton’s email expanded to possibly investigate if operations at the State Department may have been improperly coordinated with the nonprofit Clinton Foundation.

1. Maybe you should consider who you are quoting before you start taking that as a fact.

[CentralCoaster]

15. I guess breaking the glass ceiling with a female candidate that loses is worth a GOP win in the GE

I don't see it that way but it defies logic that we'd go with the weaker candidate.

[Ferd Berfel]

43. Issa makes my skin crawl - BUT -

If he says that the investigations of a CLINTON will last past......(what ever) you can damn well be sure that they will do it

The investigations, hearings, indictments and nightly news reports of Clinton's problems will be endless

If she manages to weasel her way to the WH she will get nothing done because of this ^

Yeah, just like that.

26. This is what is embarrassing.

For someone you allege to be so brilliant, she does some dumb-ass (and illegal things).

5. Why do I think of the scene in History of The World

Where the younger version of King Lois (not the real king) is searching the desk for royal pardons...

"Execution, execution (to the camera) this guy likes executions!!!"

"Pardons.........oh, they have to be in here, somewhere......"

[stonecutter357]

6. emails and stuff.

[Fawke Em]

27. ...and a very real investigation...

http://thompsontimeline.com/The_Clinton_Email_Scandal_Timeline

That said, I certainly don't want this timeline to help elect Trump or Cruz. Clinton has her email scandal, but Trump and Cruz have their big problems too. And the polls show it: Trump, Cruz, AND Clinton have the highest dislike numbers of any major presidential candidates since favorability numbers began to be polled in the 1970s. It's extremely bizarre that the three most disliked politicians of the last forty years at least are the ones winning the primaries so far. If you're a Democrat like I am, and you've come to believe as I do that Clinton committed serious crimes in her email scandal, that this presidential election could be a disaster no matter who wins.

Luckily, there still are other options. This is a completely unprecedented situation of having a major presidential candidate with an FBI indictment recommendation hanging over her head in the middle of the election season. The Democratic National Convention isn't until the end of July 2016, and a lot could happen between now and then. It's been reported that the FBI investigation is winding down and they want to make their decision whether or not to recommend the indictment of Clinton and/or her aides by the middle of May. That still could be delayed two months and have it happen before the convention.

So between now and late July, Democrats are going to have to decide if Clinton's scandal is serious enough to disqualify her to be the next president or not. If the evidence is strong enough and the resulting political mood is strong enough, then either Clinton will have no choice but to drop out or the super delegates will switch their support to Bernie Sanders or someone else.

7. Issa is just distracting you while he steals your car.

seriously, we're quoting THAT asshole as a reasonable source now?

30. And you don't see your part in that. Right?

[frylock]

31. How DARE they not trust someone as untrustworthy as Hillary.

The nerve.

[1StrongBlackMan]

32. Did you say something?

[frylock]

34. No.

Just voices in the wind.

[Desert805]

36. I suspect Hillary plays a much larger part

than an anonymous poster in a message board.

[pdsimdars]

9. I think they've been looking into that from early on.

An example is say a middle eastern country who wants a lot of military weapons from the US and hasn't been approved. They've never made any donations to the Clinton Foundation but they make a multi-million dollar donation and suddenly the State Department approves their purchase. Win for everyone. Well, everyone except OUR country.

[MariaThinks]

12. how desparate and disgusting to quote darrell isa. let's start quoting george bush too.

[amborin]

37. here you go:

[MariaThinks]

45. gross

[CentralCoaster]

13. ••• Unelectable. •••Trump's wet dream. •••This can not end well. •••Vote Sanders

I don't care if it's Issa or anyone else, the very appearance of corruption was foreseeable and makes Clinton so vulnerable as to be deemed unelectable.

Will the delegates see it?

Not likely.

I guess breaking the glass ceiling with a female candidate that loses is worth a GOP win in the general.

Sad, ain't it?

[Jitter65]

16. When Issa become your hero. You are seriously ill. nt

[amborin]

38. LOL! kill the messenger

[ViseGrip]

17. The 'pay to play' foundation is just as corrupt as an 'untethered' server in a basement!

Bill, "ooopsie, I sold 500K worth of arms through the foundation for donations, and I wasn't suppose to do that, while Hillary worked at State".

Do you really think he didn't know better? He just admitted that he did. They are as corrupt as the Bush's and I don't want them NEAR OUR WHITE HOUSE. EVER.

[Firebrand Gary]

18. You lost all credibility by using a hit piece led by Darrell Issa.

[Autumn]

20. I'm so sick of these people. I'm sick of republicans, sick of investigations into the Clinton's.

Sick of the Clinton baggage. Sick of the whole fucking thing.

[Octafish]

22. Weird how FOX can ''afford'' to play both sides of the street.

Must be in the tax code or something.

23. I find your use of OMG! in the subject line somewhat disingenuous.

[SidDithers]

25. The right hates Hillary. The fringe left hates Hillary...

and posts like these lead me to believe there's not a dimes worth of difference between the two.

28. a fox interview with auto-thief darrell issa . . . seriously

[Tarc]

29. When I want hard-hitting facts, I turn to Darrel Issa and the "probably" qualifiers...

Issa was the scumbag who took down Gov. Davis, paving the way for The Governator. No fucking thanks.

[zappaman]

33. Darrell Issa?

[snot]

35. This is my fear:

Above all else, TPTB don't want Bernie; they've done nearly everything possible to stop him.

Hillary is not their ideal candidate, but they prefer her to Trump or Cruz, because she's more controllable.

They'll keep digging up all the dirt they can on her but hold off any actual indictment or the like, because that might throw the candidacy to Bernie. Then, if she's elected, they'll have either a ton of leverage on her or at least sufficient ammo to keep her too busy/distracted to accomplish anything they don't like – it'll be a replay of the first Clinton impeachment.

Meanwhile, of course, she'll cooperate with a lot of the things they want, or at least not fight them whole-heartedly, since she was never really against them – the TPP, weaker financial regulations, weaker protections for net neutrality, more surveillance, etc.

[felix_numinous]

44. Blackmail

the potential and possibilities seem endless. Bernie doesn't provide this particular option with such a clear record. Of course with so many secret meetings and speeches, perhaps the deals have already been struck.

[NCTraveler]

41. You make a very good point. Many of Sanders hold outs sound exactly like Issa.

Excellent job of highlighting that aspect. Now this is the DU I remember.

[larkrake]

42. If the repugs look into the Foundation, they will uncover alot of moral and legal crimes

and we will have a President leading from prison, or house arrest in the white house. She would still be the head snake among the snakes in Congress, unless impeached. So it is vital that we have a moral VP.

However, the likely scenario is once she is elected, the investigation will be voided.

Hillary has always been smart about not being upstaged, so will see to it her VP is a vegetable

[pnwmom]

46. OMG! Issa has something ominous to say about Hillary! And it's on Faux news!!!
