2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumThere seems to be a common denominator with the FBI investigations.
And it relates to the Clinton Global initiative. Could this have been spawned as a result of their investigation of the unsecured server the Clintons set up in their NY home? Maybe Brian Pagliano can shed some light on it.

It's way to early to tell what's going on with Terry's case but the op does have a point.

(8,541 posts)Very interesting and maybe Teneo was the non charitable side of the business. I know Mills had a start up as well that's now in the cross hairs of the government.

Clinton Foundation received subpoena from State Department investigators.
Investigators with the State Department issued a subpoena to the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation last fall seeking documents about the charitys projects that may have required approval from the federal government during Hillary Clintons term as secretary of state, according to people familiar with the subpoena and written correspondence about it.
The subpoena also asked for records related to Huma Abedin, a longtime Clinton aide who for six months in 2012 was employed simultaneously by the State Department, the foundation, Clintons personal office, and a private consulting firm with ties to the Clintons.

I do love watching you hope, though.
