I was listening to the radio on the way home tonight. The commentator mentioned a “Breaking” news story from CNN. I almost changed the station. I’m glad I didn’t. The news item referred to an action by the FBI that occurred a little over a year ago. Several agents reacting to a tip of suspicious activity in a bank account started looking into the financial actions of a tax exempt/charitable foundation. They found evidence of criminal wrong doing on the part of the foundation. They proceeded to request a full investigation of the “criminal enterprise”. They asked the Justice department for authorization. It was denied.
The charitable Institution? The Clinton foundation. Having seen the action by the Justice Department on this case of financial misconduct, Comey apparently concluded that a referral on the e-mail investigation would result in the same action, Refusal to indict Thus the long presentation of facts and actions by the Director and then the statement that the FBI was not asking for an indictment.
It all makes much more sense now.
What do the citizens of the Gulch think?
