Enough is Enough: Time To Impeach Hillary Clinton.

My, my, is all I could think when within a week two big Trump supporters unconnected with each other mailed me a piece that apparently is going around in the Ayn Rand circles. It is titled: “FBI Corruption . . . decades in a nutshell.”

You know sometimes I have to sit  back to collect my thoughts. The way all these Trump/Ayn Rand followers are acting you would think that Hillary Clinton won the presidency. This new piece going around is related to the “Clinton Foundation.” 

I know little about it so I looked it up on this site.

It reported it had a four star rating and a score of 93.91 (the same as the Society of St. Vincent de Paul of San Mateo County. ) It said the rating used “data provided by the charity on a consolidated pro forma 990 which was verified against 990s received from the IRS.” Four Star is the highest rating.

I then looked up the Donald J. Trump foundation. It has a “High Concern” advisory. It states: “The concerns raised about organizational legitimacy and/or federal tax law compliance are serious both in nature and scope and have thus warranted this CN Advisory.

“Oh, well,” I thought, “ the Trump followers of Ms Rand, a Russian atheist, are still concerned about the Clintons as if they were running the country. I might as well see what’s got them so excited.”

The article tells of a 2001 to 2005 investigation into the Clinton Foundation. George Bush was president at the time and John Ashcroft was attorney general. Not the people one would think who’d give the Clintons a pass. But we are not supposed to know that. This article says James Comey took over the investigation in 2002, Lois Lerner from the IRS was involved, Rod Rosenstein ran the Tax Division in the Justice Department, and Robert Mueller was director of the FBI. It says: “They all were briefed and/or were front line investigators into the Clinton Foundation Investigation.” It leaves it there without noting that Comey, Rosenstein, and Mueller had no connection with the Clintons and were Republicans.

Somehow we are supposed to find something sinister in this. I might be dumb but just leaving it there seems absurd. Is there anything even remotely showing that anything was done wrong. It is like noting I was in law school and friends with a couple of guys who ended up in prison. What are you suppose to conclude from that?

The article then jumps to 2009. Comey’s working in the private sector for Lockheed Martin and Hillary is in the State Department. You see the connection  there I hope. (I don’t if you want to know). It goes on to note Hillary is running the State department on her private server and the “Uranium One “issue” comes to” her attention. He says, “she decides to support the decision and approve the sale of 20% of US Uranium to no other than, the Russians.” The article notes Mueller was FBI director, Rosenstein handled the case in the Maryland U.S. attorney’s office, and Lois Lerner was still at the IRS.

The truth is it is unclear if Hillary knew of the sale. The secretary of state was one of nine member of the Committee on Foreign Investments. She was represented by a person in her office who said: “Mrs. Clinton never intervened with me on any C.F.I.U.S. matter.”  As you know this matter was investigated by two Republican led committees in Congress. As the NY Daily News summed it up: “Is there any evidence that Hillary Clinton ‘gave Russia 20% of American uranium’ to funnel money to her family? NO.”

The article next moves to 2015. It talks about her private email server. We all know that and how it has been beaten into the ground endlessly. Then we’re told that Comey was director of the FBI at the time but before he worked there he secured 17 no bid contracts for his employer (Lockheed Martin) with the State Department”(we know nothing more than that like what the bids were for, how much, etc) Like much of the article it just hangs out there as if something evil was done.

Apparently because of the State Department giving those no bid contract to Lockheed Martin Comey exonerated Clinton in July 2016. Of course no mention is made how he stabbed her in the back in October 2016, 11 days before the presidential election by announcing he had reopened the email investigation into Clinton. That’s one of those inconvenient fact that destroys the whole theory.

The article notes: “Mueller is assigned to the Russian Investigation sham by Rosenstein to provide cover for decades of malfeasance within the FBI and DOJ and the story continues.” Of course the Russian investigation is a sham. We are supposed to forget that all the U.S. intelligence agencies agreed that Russia interfered in the election.

The article near the end states:  “All connected in one way or another to the Clinton’s. . . . As of this writing, the Clinton Foundation, in its 20+ years of operation of being the largest International Charity Fraud in the history of mankind, has never been audited by the Internal Revenue Service.” The author apparently does not realize that if everything was in the bag then Lois Lerner’s IRS would have audited the foundation and given it a pass.

It ends with the words, “Let us not forget that Comey’s brother works for DLA Piper, the law firm that does the Clinton Foundation’s taxes.” Which to be consistent we don’t want to forget that two of my law school classmates went to prison.  

What’s not mention is that the Justice Department, IRS and Congress are now and have been under the control of Clinton’s enemies. Why if things are so apparently bad and evil isn’t something being done about it. At least, you would think that impeachment proceedings against Hillary would begin.

What. She didn’t win. Then why are all these people with higher education sending around these crazy theories about her? Some things I’ll never be able to figure out. Do they think by pretending she won that we don’t know who really did?

  1. Hi Matt,
    Just catching up. I agree with you. The Clintons are now a speck in the rear-view window. It’s fun to think that at long last, I’m feeling sympathetic toward the FBI. And why not? Look who’s tormenting them! The man who dictated the letter from his then-doctor attesting to his “astonishingly excellent” health. “Astonishingly excellent.” Now, who talks like that? Admittedly, Trump’s former physician seems deeply weird. But if so, why did Trump keep him around for 35 years?

    Trump is also the man who — shortly before the election — dropped $130,000 in hush money on a porn star he had hooked up with. The payment was arranged by I’m-taking-the-5th attorney Steve Cohen. Talk about bad companions!

    On the plus side, I’m hoping that Trump is successful in his bid to tranquilize Kim Jong Un. The president also deserves credit for trying, even if it turns out that the little devil is lying about giving up his nuclear weapons. (Recent photos and video of Kim’s hair-do confirm my fear that the Supreme Leader has executed every barber in North Korea.)

  2. JC:

    “Racism, fascism, Trumpism, ect.” That be you, huh?

  3. John King McDonald

    And Mr. Concannon , Thankyou !!!

  4. John King McDonald

    Be Jayzus’ ….. And I know when I am being charmed by an Irish poet !

    Got a start when you mentioned Joe Walsh as Sean and Brian Walsh’s dad, Joe was my landlord in Southie for a couple of years . I think Joe and wife were up the top of East Fifth. I did not have the honor of knowing Joe Walsh , your indomitable friend , or Timmy, but … I know there are many tough bastards on the peninsula . Slainte

  5. Mr. McDonald, twenty years ago being 59 was actually a distraction. By the way, I look forward to reading all of your replies. They are very thoughtful and informative. On Friday I’m attending a wake of a true Southie Icon, Joe Walsh. He was 85 and at age ten lost his left leg in accident but went on to be a Champion Swimmer,Footballer and Basketballer. He was six-three and actually knew all the words to a “Mothers Love Is a Blessing “ His son Timmy graduated from CM and played Basketball. Did you know him? I’m presently looking through my collection of old ties ,trying to find the right one to fit that old three button suit I haven’t worn since the last funeral. Some call it the Golden Years but I beg to differ. Slainte

  6. Happy Birthday, Matt. I called my Dorchester buddy Paul Fitz this morning to report on our mutual friend Tommy Cameron’s health. He told me it was his (Fitz’s) birthday as well. And as always, Tom sends his regards.

  7. Matt,

    Happy Birthday, cousin, and many more.

    It is kind of amusing to watch as every single topic you bring up, the comments immediately revert to “Lock her up! Lock her up!”, or some such.

    It even happened today, when you sarcastically called for her impeachment. It’s just single minded crazyness in every quarter.

    I honestly look forward to the next generation taking over the political sphere, as I think we have finally outlived our relevance.

    Enjoy this nice Spring day.

  8. Mr. Khalid and Mr. Mc Donald, you should be more respectful of your Elders. Happy Birthday, Matt.

      Mr. Concannon :

      I am fifty-nine years old. I have neckties that are older than that sort of inane reproach. Keep those cards and letters , birthday and otherwise , coming . Your censure is unwarranted Please absent me from your personal missives. It is a distraction.

      I am not a product of the pampered classes .

      • John King McDonald

        This reminds me of all the afternoons Chris Nilan and I sat in Brother San Pietro’s very exclusive afternoon Detention at CM.

        They never let you out of the friggin’ penalty box.

        • When you see Chris next, ask him how it felt to smash the butt end of his stick into Lady Bing winner Rick Middleton’s mouth. I liked Chris until he became a Hab. From then on its like getting on The Hell’s Angles shit list. You never get off. I just wish he was a Bruin for his whole career. He was an excellent hockey player.

          And what were YOU doing in detention???

          • John King McDonald

            He still owes me 8 dollars for a report I wrote on Abortion for him . He told me years later he got an ‘A’ . I was in this two person afternoon Detention because I had been kicked out of Sally Staton’s French class for being a wiseass. The Headmaster , Brother Henry , who hated me on principle ( excuse the pun ) and in particular because I scored in the top six percent nationwide as a sophomore on the NEDT and he had to give me an award a month before expulsion , was her boytoy at the time . He later renounced his vows and married her . He put me in this afternoon length special Detention with San Pietro and Chris soon joined me . You are a good Judge of character, Abe . He was the toughest kid in the school, but never ever the bully boy with me . Chris is a mensch !

            And yes, Matt … To be a true pun the noun ‘ Principal ‘ would be deployed . Don’t fret . IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY !!!

    • Jim:

      I’m not, personally, nasty toward Matt. I just disagree with anything that smacks of the bourgeois attitude, such, as, racism, fascism, Trumpism, etc . As far as I know, Matt can’t be accused of these things. My opposition to the political/economic system shouldn’t be construed as an attack on Matt.

      Happy feast day, Matt. All power to the Dialectic!

  9. Wa-llahi! Great last line.

    This blog originated as THE TRIAL OF WHITEY BULGER . It has ridden the coattails of that event into politically partisan prognosticating, ruminating, and contravening common sense in the service of left wing political ideology ever since.

    John Connolly waits while his supporters rack their wits to fathom the unfathomable. Jimmy Bulger, like John Connolly , a man whose case was adjudicated under absolutely outrageous Federal auspices , waits as well.

    The juror selection for the Salemme trial begins next week. The overachieving Uhlar, in the face of a monolithic indifference to The Rule Of Law , has gestated a book , The Truth Be Damned , wherein she ” Porpoises ” to give insight as to Jimmy’s take on the deal .

    Why don’t you, as moderator, suit purpose to porpoise, shall we say , and like a porpoise, get yourself out into the bow wake and cavort about a bit .
    Show some spirit and whatever else you choose to call it and address yourself to matters of moment rather than this conscientious dreck about ol’ hil’ bean !

  11. It’s very naive or disingenuous to suggest that all of these things were coincidences, especially that Clinton Foundation activities were just coincidentally the object of the bounty of Uranium One to the tune of millions of dollars. Mrs. Clinton was not elected but when all this was going on everyone thought she would be. That she was not elected doesn’t mean it was OK. Investigations have been hamstrung – by the committee minorities in Congress and permanent upper level management in the FBI while DOJ has been decapitated of its politically accountable leadership.

    ” Nobody thinks of drawing the difference between honest graft and dishonest graft … There’s all the difference in the world between the two.” … PLUNKITT OF TAMMANY HALL

  13. You have to go back and read about Bill Clinton and Frank Giustra traveling to Khazigstan (spelling wrong) and they initiated the deal to get US Uraniam through Canada to Russia.
    A Russian Bank subsequently gave Bill $1 million to speak one-half hour.
    Giustra’s Canadian Foundation funneled about $20 million to the Clinton Foundation.
    Hillary and Bill are filthy rich…partly through books . . partly through stacking their Foundation with former campaign workers and accepting BIG BUCKS from Saudis Turks Morocco and Russia-via-Canada – -via PAY to PLAY to get access to the Secretary of State, then Hillary, and potential future US PREZ . . .whose crimes were whitewashed by the FBI . . . .”extreme careless” = “gross negligence” = CRIME by STATUTE

    2. FORGET ALL THAT: GET MY BOOK ON KINDLE:
    “THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS: Prosecute the Persecutors who Abuse Federal Prosecutorial Power.”
    Available now on KINDLE as an E-BOOK . . .will soon have soft covers/hard covers published, God willing and the creek don’t rise, also phrased, God willing and the CREEK or CREE don’t rise up, in Andy Jackson’s time

    Get it on KINDLE, then let’s talk about FEDs abusing power

  14. Just a coincidence that Hillary approves the Uranium One deal and her foundation gets $140 million from the Russians through the Canadians. As Sec. of State she authorizes $70 million to Morocco and the foundation gets a $12 million donation in return, The Clinton Foundation was always a pay for play scheme. What did Harry Truman say about people who enter government without money and leave wealthy ( Clinton net worth of $150 million). They were thieves. LBJ and Hillary are the prime examples. She is less honest than the State Police. The House Intel Committee said there was Russian collusion but it was with the Democrats not Trump and the Republicans. 2. Hillary is the best thing that happened to the GOP. Rasmussen had a poll where Trump was 51% approval. Hillary is in Dukakis territory at 27%. 3. How many dolts in the media and in DC are on the Saudi payroll? Saudi Arabia and the other Gulf States fund ISIS, Al Qaeda and Al Nusra. Those terrorist groups have killed thousands of Americans and Europeans yet we constantly hear they are our friends and the false claim that Iran is the biggest State sponsor of terror. The Saudis are routinely committing war crimes in Yemen where over 10 thousand civilians have been killed. Again not a word of protest from the Western media. You can’t believe what you read in the press. HAPPY BIRTHDAY

  15. Mueller

    I had family and many friends die in 911. Lest we forget Mueller personally blocked the release of the highly damning Saudi annex to the 911 Commission report. And a follow on investigation addressing the serious issues raised there has never been released. Hard to not conclude once one reads the Saudi annex that Mueller is not a totally useless human being that covered up the greatest terrorist attacking in US history. Indeed the entire Mideast disaster in Iraq can in large part attributed to this coverup.

  16. The IRS can’t audit the Canadian Clinton foundations, Matt.

    The Clinton Foundation (US):

    This foundation is a public organization to which anyone may donate and is distinct from the Clinton Family Foundation, a private organization for personal Clinton family philanthropy. (The Clinton Family Foundation: https://www.insidephilanthropy.com/home/2016/7/29/the-other-clinton-foundation-a-look-at-bill-and-hillarys-per.html)

    Through 2016 the foundation had raised an estimated $2 billion from U.S. corporations, foreign governments and corporations, political donors, and various other groups and individuals.

    The Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership (Canada) is a registered Canadian charity founded by Frank Giustra. Since 2007, the work of the Canadian charity has been carried out under an Agency Agreement with the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation (the Clinton Foundation). This partnership is a reflection of Frank Giustra’s and President Bill Clinton’s commitment to working together toward innovative solutions to poverty alleviation on a global scale.

    The Enterprise Partnership, an initiative of the Clinton Foundation, is responsible for the global management of all programmatic activities including enterprise development and program related investments.

    But we know that really wealthy folks seldom if ever use foundations for ‘controversial’ matters. That’s what Trusts are for.
