Trump Calls For Special Prosecutor To Look At Clinton Foundation

There’s a couple maxims in politics. One is that an honest politician is one who stays bought. Another is that if it looks like corruption, feels like corruption, it’s probably corruption. Most realize there was something very shady about the Clinton Foundation, and how those how there was a pretty big link between people, entities, and governments making donations then suddenly getting access to the U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, and a new released giant batch of emails makes the case that there was pay for play going on.

(Fox News) Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump called for an “expedited investigation” by a special prosecutor into “pay-to-play” accusations involving the Clinton Foundation while reiterating on Monday he plans to have a “firm, but fair” stance on illegal immigration.

“The Clintons’ made the State Department into the same kind of Pay-to-Play operations as the Arkansas Government was: pay the Clinton Foundation huge sums of money and throw in some big speaking fees for Bill Clinton and you got to play with the State Department,” Trump said at a campaign rally Monday night in Akron, Ohio.

“The amounts involved, the favors done, the significant amount of time, require an expedited investigation by a special prosecutor immediately, immediately,” he added.

Would a special prosecutor find evidence of criminal wrong-doing? Maybe, maybe not. The Clinton’s are very, very good at hiding their shading activities. She also thought she was very good at hiding her emails, but, the FBI found these almost 15,000 emails, and Hillary has stated that she turned over all her emails. That could be, what’s that word, oh, year, perjury. Even the Washington Post noted that how foundation donors got easy access to Hillary and her aides at the State dept.

(Politico) Donald Trump intensified his effort Monday to shift the focus of the campaign to Hillary Clinton and the huge donations to the Clinton Foundation from foreign benefactors, calling for a special prosecutor to “investigate Hillary Clinton’s crimes.”

Trump argued during a campaign rally in Akron, Ohio, that the federal government could not be trusted to impartially probe Clinton’s relationship to the foundation and its donors.

“The Justice Department is required to appoint an independent Special Prosecutor because it has proven itself to be a political arm of the White House,” he said.

Trump has a point: the DOJ seems to very much look at things in a partisan manner under this president. You can bet the farm that if Hillary had an R after her name, they’d be doing massive investigations.

At a minimum, there was a massive conflict of interest. Remember the whines from liberals about Halliburton and Dick Cheney? Cheney had no financial stake or control of the company while serving as Vice President. Hillary was closely involved with her so-called-charity which provided little charity and there is an odor of corruption involving pay for play.

    Well duh. Welcome to America.

    William Teach: the DOJ seems to very much look at things in a partisan manner under this president.

    Comey is not a Democratic partisan by any stretch. The decision to recommend against charges was a unanimous decision of career investigators.

    How about a special prosecutor to investigate Mr. Trump’s business dealings?

    Not smidgen of corruption.

    In Abedin’s June deposition to Judicial Watch, she conceded that part of her job at the State Department was taking care of “Clinton family matters.”

    The problem you have with Clinton dear comrades, is she never stops.

    WASHINGTON (AP) — More than half the people outside the government who met with Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of state gave money – either personally or through companies or groups – to the Clinton Foundation. It’s an extraordinary proportion indicating her possible ethics challenges if elected president.

    At least 85 of 154 people from private interests who met or had phone conversations scheduled with Clinton while she led the State Department donated to her family charity or pledged commitments to its international programs, according to a review of State Department calendars released so far to The Associated Press. Combined, the 85 donors contributed as much as $156 million. At least 40 donated more than $100,000 each, and 20 gave more than $1 million.

    Donors who were granted time with Clinton included an internationally known economist who asked for her help as the Bangladesh government pressured him to resign from a nonprofit bank he ran; a Wall Street executive who sought Clinton’s help with a visa problem and Estee Lauder executives who were listed as meeting with Clinton while her department worked with the firm’s corporate charity to counter gender-based bias.

    Nothin’ wrong there, right Zac? You guys are chin deep in denial.

    Conservatives do not oppose Sec Clinton because of “corruption”, they oppose her because of her ideology. She supports policies that most conservatives oppose, which is their right.

    Questions about her “health”, “corruption”, “criminality”, “emails” and “Benghazi!” are tactics.

    If elected Trump would be the oldest person to ever assume the Presidency.

    This is rich coming from Donald Capone Trump

  9. drowningpuppies says:

    Clinton received 240 FOIA requests from 2009 to 2013 but only responded to three of them within the legally required timeframe. Among the organizations that filed unanswered requests were the AP, Gawker, Judicial Watch, Citizens United, and Vice News. Some of these groups subsequently sued the State Department for failing to respond to their requests for information from Clinton’s records.
