2016 Postmortem

(11,366 posts)37. Actually, there has been SOME reporting on that, however slight.
It's like it went down the memory hole, though.
January 11, 2016: The FBI's Clinton investigation could be looking into Clinton Foundation corruption. Fox News reports, "The FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of private email as secretary of state has expanded to look at whether the possible 'intersection' of Clinton Foundation work and State Department business may have violated public corruption laws," according to three unnamed "intelligence sources." One source says, "The agents are investigating the possible intersection of Clinton Foundation donations, the dispensation of State Department contracts, and whether regular processes were followed." Clinton denies this, saying, "No, there's nothing like that that is happening," However, Fox News points out, "Experts including a former senior FBI agent said the bureau does not have to notify the subject of an investigation." (Fox News, 1/11/2016) One month later, The Washington Post will report that the State Department issued a subpoena to The Clinton Foundation in late 2015. (The Washington Post, 2/11/2016)

It was an article written by a hack who insists that he's proven that God exists using science.

It was briefly on Huff. They included a disclaimer that said they aren't responsible for its content

If the FBI goes that deep and actually finds something, Hillary is fucked.

This sounds a lot like Dick Cheney, "I read it in the Times" in the lead up to Iraq.
