FBI
agents spent six hours raiding the home of Department of Justice whistleblower
Dennis Nathan Cain on Nov. 19th. According to Cain's lawyer, he was in
possession of documents pertaining to the Clinton Foundation and Uranium One.
He had handed them over to the DOJ’s inspector general and both the House and
Senate Intelligence committees, The Daily Caller
News Foundation reported.
From The Daily Caller:
The Justice Department’s inspector general was informed that the
documents show that federal officials failed to investigate potential criminal
activity regarding former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the Clinton
Foundation and Rosatom, the Russian company that purchased Uranium One, a
document reviewed by The Daily Caller News Foundation alleges.
The delivered documents
also show that then-FBI Director Robert Mueller failed to investigate
allegations of criminal misconduct pertaining to Rosatom and to other Russian
government entities attached to Uranium
One, the document reviewed by TheDCNF alleges. Mueller is
now the special counsel investigating whether the Trump campaign colluded with
Russia during the 2016 election.
Although Cain handed over the documents, the whistleblower’s
lawyer, Michael Socarras, said the raid was excessive and went against
whistleblower protections.
“The bureau raided my client to seize what he legally gave
Congress about the Clinton Foundation and Uranium One,” Socarras told The
DCNF.
A special agent from the FBI's Baltimore division believed Cain
had stolen federal property and demanded to be let into the house. Cain let the
agent know that he was protected under the Intelligence Community Whistleblower
Protection Act and that Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz
recognized his whistleblower status. He also made the agent aware that he had
submitted the classified information to the Senate and House Intelligence
committees. At that point the special agent in charge of the sting direct 16
other agents to begin a sweep Cain's property.
Cain immediately handed over the documents to the FBI out of fear. Despite
having the documents, the FBI continued their raid.
“After asking and getting my approval to do so, DOJ IG Michael
Horowitz had a member of his staff physically take Mr. Cain’s classified
document disclosure to the House and Senate Intelligence committees,” Socarras
said. “For the bureau to show up at Mr. Cain’s home suggesting that those same
documents are stolen federal property, and then proceed to seize copies of the
same documents after being told at the house door that he is a legally
protected whistleblower who gave them to Congress, is an outrageous disregard
of the law."
Cain
came across the classified information while working for a government
contractor. Under whistleblower protections, the inspector general is to share
that information with the attorney general. At that time, the attorney general
was Jeff Sessions.
“The [whistleblower act] authorizes employees of contractors to
take government property and give it to the two intelligence committees
confidentially,” Socarras said.
Here's how the information was handed off:
Cain met with a senior member of Horowitz’s office at a church
close to the White House to deliver the documents to the IG, according to
Socarras.
Cain sat in a pew with
a hoodie and sun glasses, Socarras said. Cain held a double-sealed envelope
containing a flash drive with the documents. The IG official met him and,
without saying a word, took the pouch over Cain’s shoulder and left.
Hillary Clinton is simply the epitome
of the rabid self – a whirlpool of selfishness, greed, and malignance.
It may well be true that Donald Trump has made his greatest
contribution to the nation before even taking office: the political destruction of Hillary Clinton and her
infinitely corrupt machine. J.R. Dunn
"Hillary will do
anything to distract you from her reckless record and the damage to the
Democratic Party and the America she and The Obama's have created."
THE FINAL DAYS OF HILLARY CLINTON: MISTRESS of the SWAMP,
GLOBAL BRIBES SUCKER and LOOTER OF THE POOR
“If the Constitution did not forbid cruel
and unusual punishment, the sentence I would like to see imposed would place
both Bill and Hillary Clinton in the same 8-by-12
cell.” ROBERT ARVAY – AMERICAN THINKER com
Bill And Hillary Tour Underwhelms In Ticket Sales, Attendance
https://hotair.com/archives/2018/12/01/bill-hillary-tour-underwhelms-ticket-sales-attendance/
Bill and Hillary Clinton have taken their show on the road. Ticket sales for “An Evening with the Clintons” are not what they once might have been, according to all reports. With stops deliberately booked in what are assumed to be Clinton-friendly cities, the aging power couple seems to be having trouble filling seats.
It’s not exactly a whirlwind tour. The schedule is downright lethargic in the beginning. The first stop on November 27 was in Toronto, Canada with a stop the next night in Montreal. The next stop on the schedule is Houston on December 4. In light of the passing of former President George H.W. Bush, that date may be canceled or changed. But, that’s all there is to the tour until 2019. They start back up in April 2019 in New York City and continue through May, ending in Las Vegas on May 5. Does anyone else think it’s odd that a former U.S. president and a former Secretary of State began a self-promoting tour in Canada? Maybe it’s just me.
The venue in Toronto only sold 3,300 tickets. Whole sections of the arena were empty. I checked the website for ticket prices and for the Houston stop, the cheap seats go for $15.00 and the most expensive ticket price I could find was $1146.00. That’s a real bargain, especially compared to the book tour events (it’s not just a book tour, they are events) scheduled for former First Lady Michelle Obama. The high-end prices for the Michelle tour go for $10,000. That is what I found and it’s not a stop in Houston but in Dallas at the American Airlines Center. The Clinton venue in Houston is smaller.
Anyway, you won’t be surprised to read that a good bit of the Clinton question and answer conversation centers around her bitterness toward President Trump. He lives rent-free in her head.
And the former secretary of state was prepared to mock Trump’s interview with the Washington Post just hours after it published, shaking her head at Trump telling the paper “my gut tells me more sometimes than anybody else’s brain can ever tell me.”
You “literally you can’t make this stuff up,” she said. “A dozen times a day your head is spinning.”< And near the end of the event, Hillary Clinton returned to Trump's gut, criticizing him for saying he does not "believe" a recently released dire government report on climate change. "It just riles me up," she said. "If you won't listen to people who actually spend time over decades studying problems, my goodness, your gut is not the answer to everything that is important in the world, I'm sorry."
The tour comes at a time when speculation is strong on whether or not Hillary will actually make another attempt at a presidential run. She joked about standing for Parliament in Canada when asked about any plans to run but you know she’s thinking about. I don’t think she ever stops thinking about it. She’s consumed with anger that Donald Trump won. While the next generation of Democrats is ready to move up, the Clintons (especially Hillary) refuse to leave the stage. It’s no wonder ticket sales are slow. Why would anyone pay money to listen to them when almost any day an interview or quote is available in print or on television? It’s not like either of them are saying anything new.
Also, there’s the re-emergence of Monica Lewinsky. She’s been telling her story after all these years. Don’t expect either Clinton to be asked about that whole scandal, though. It’s not happening. The former horndog-in-chief still gets a pass on the difficult questions.
But the kickoff comes at a tenuous time for the Clintons: Not only is their standing in the Democratic Party in question after neither was particularly prolific during the midterms, but the event comes amid a renewed focus on Bill Clinton’s affair with Monica Lewinsky, a moment in history that has gained more attention recently because of a multi-part series on the affair on A&E and other retrospectives. The Lewinsky affair and other allegations against of sexual impropriety Bill Clinton are also being re-examined in the light of the #MeToo era.
One topic that Hillary is quick to criticize President Trump on is his relationship with Saudia Arabia. It’s ironic given the Clinton Foundation’s refusal to state that they will no longer accept financial donations from The Kingdom as others have.
“We have a president who is part of the cover-up as to what happened in that consulate or embassy when Mr. Khashoggi was murdered,” Clinton said. “And we have a president and those closest to him who have their own personal commercial interests.”
But the Clinton Foundation, to which donations declined dramatically after Clinton’s 2016 defeat, has taken multi-million dollar contributions from Saudi Arabia in the past and isn’t ruling out continuing to accept them.
The Clinton Foundation accepted between $10 and $25 million from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, with donations coming as late as 2014. A now-defunct group named “Friends of Saudi Arabia,” which was reportedly co-founded by a Saudi Prince and often worked as a PR front for the kingdom, also donated between $1 and $5 million.
Implying corruption about the sitting president in business dealings is probably not the best idea. She and her husband have a legacy of corruption. She should just sit that conversation out.
