Multiple FBI investigations are underway involving potential corruption charges against the Clinton Foundation, according to a former senior law enforcement official. The investigation centers on New York City where the Clinton Foundation has its main offices, according to the former official who has direct knowledge of the activities. Prosecutorial support will come from various U.S. Attorneys Offices — a major departure from other centralized FBI investigations. The New York-based probe is being led by Preet Bharara, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York. Bharara’s prosecutorial aggressiveness has resulted in a large number of convictions of banks, hedge funds and Wall Street insiders.

The official said involvement of the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of New York “would be seen by agents as a positive development as prosecutors there are generally thought to be more aggressive than the career lawyers within the DOJ.”...And there it is. Bharara will not be as easy to "handle" as the squishes within the DOJ. So, if the investigators have found something, Bill and Hillary will not be enjoying the same "friends" they relied on during the email investigation. More bluntly; it's hard to imagine an airport runway meeting this time around. Obviously, this is one unnamed source. All of the above should be taken with a grain of salt until we get some sort of corroboration. However, if it's true, this would be absolutely huge news. One last thought: As this news makes its way to Clinton ears, pray for the health and safety of Preet Bharara. You can learn more about him in the interview below.
