The Stakes In The FBI Investigation Of Hillary

By DICK MORRIS & EILEEN MCGANN

The dramatic developments in the FBI investigation of Hillary portend great trouble for her candidacy.  The threats are numerous, on several different fronts, and each has the potential to be lethal.

Here’s what we know: The FBI has found 650,000 emails on Anthony Weiner and Huma Abedin’s home laptop and identified thousands — if not hundreds of thousands — with the addresses of @state.gov and @clintonmail.com.  And, the FBI has been investigating the Clinton Foundation since February.

This is very bad news for Hillary — especially only 8 days from the election,

And we now know that the Department of Justice has repeatedly tried to shut down the probe.  It pays to have friends in high places. This puts Bill Clinton’s premeditated and audacious “visit” to Attorney General Loretta Lynch in a new perspective.

Here’s some thoughts on how all of this might unfold:

•  Huma Abedin probably lied under oath when she told the FBI that she had turned over all emails and devices in her possession.  The Wall Street Journal reports that 650,000 new e mails have been found on the computers seized at the Weiner-Abedin apartment.  She had been given immunity by the Justice Department, but her lies under oath likely vitiate the deal.  If Huma is vulnerable to a perjury or obstruction of justice charge, it could lead her to turn on her mentor.  In any case, Hillary has to fire her.

•  Included in the 650,000 emails may be some or all of the ones Hillary had deleted before she turned over the remainder to the State Department.  If any of those deleted e mails contained classified or Top Secret material, she is in very, very deep trouble and would likely face criminal charges.  It may also show that the number of deleted emails far exceeded the 33,000 claimed by Hillary.

•  The Wall Street Journal reported that the FBI is also investigating the Clinton Foundation and has been doing so since February.  The Justice Department opposed the investigation and has tried to rein it in but the FBI — and local US Attorneys in four cities — are determined to proceed.  Was that what Bill spoke to Attorney General Loretta Lynch about on her plane in Phoenix on the tarmac?  The Foundation is so riddled with pay-for-play scandals that investigating it could be very dangerous for the Clintons.

So what about between now and Election Day?  None of this new evidence can be processed in the remaining week so don’t expect clear results.  But the fact of the investigations and the public announcement Comey has already made are likely to sink Hillary’s candidacy.  It puts her email and Foundation scandals squarely on top of the public agenda in the critical final days before the election.

Trump had been gaining every day the week before Comey spoke.  ObamaCare premium increases, the onset of Trump’s effective negative advertising, and the ongoing (and still coming) WikiLeaks revelations have all played a part.

Most shocking was the memo from Bill’s chief aide Doug Band.  Confronted with charges from Chelsea that he was ripping off her father by combining business and charitable concerns (how stupid could Chelsea get?), he prepared a 13 page list of all the income he had channeled to the former president.  It came to over $60 million and provides a playbook and scorecard for the pay for play scandals at the foundation.

In one moment, the advantage has shifted decisively back to Trump.

  1. Obama pressured Lynch, Lynch pressured Comey to not indict HRC. They both cooperated. Comey’s pals at the FBI said to him, you’ve been a straight shooter your whole career, why did you corrupt yourself now? Comey can’t sleep at night. He decides to right the wrong and goes against Lynch. Writes letter to Congress. FBI will pressure Weiner with 30 years in jail, so he will give up Huma. Huma facing 30 years will give up Bill & HRC .Huma is said to be like a daughter to HRC, maybe it’s more like a lover that’s why Bills actions don’t bother her anymore. Weiner knows! Weiner goes to jail for 3 years, HRC goes for 2 years and Bill skates. HRC campaign chairs Mook and Podesta go for 2 years for interfering with a Presidential election and perjury.
    Comey resigns and writes a book. All this ONLY if Trump wins. If he loses, Hillary gets impeached and goes to jail for 2 years because of Clinton Foundation, Bill goes also. They both make a deal or else Chelsie goes also. Time to drain the swamp

  2. So what about between now and Election Day? None of this new evidence can be processed in the remaining week so don’t expect clear results.

    Obama appointment of Podesta/marc rich buddy Radzik as prosecutor in charge, and given resources for speedy evaluation., is meant to issue a “preliminary investigation” report in time to exonerate hillary as comey did before… it is out of comey’s hands and up to the GOP congress to demand an independent prosecutor and the removal of Radzik from the case. He is a clinton insider, a political appointee who engineered the appointment of lynch.
