56. Stories on CF and its partnership with Guistra in Canada

Mon May 30, 2016, 01:00 AM

May 2016

There have been various reports over recent weeks connecting Clinton emails, SD actions, large donations to CF, and the strange CF partnership with Guistra in Canada. There have been discussions, mostly among RW pundits and sites about possible pay to play corruption and money laundering and about money laundering through Canada. The FBI did subpoena CF computers and records, providing a bit more credence.

I'm skeptical of the HP RICO story. While I think there are too many coincidences to ignore, any investigation would require extraordinary evidence before making what would be extraordinary accusations. I can't imagine what would happen if there were proof of public corruption involving the CF, the Clintons, or their associates.
