Hillary Clinton Corruption: Foundation Was the Key

Hillary Clinton Corruption: Foundation Was the Key | National Review
"She appears to have used her official powers to do favors for major Clinton Foundation donors. 
Felony mishandling of classified information, including our nation’s most closely guarded intelligence secrets; the misappropriation and destruction of tens of thousands of government records — these are serious criminal offenses.

...As we await answers, we can only observe that, whatever the FBI has found, it was significant enough for director James Comey to sense the need to notify Congress, despite knowing what a bombshell this would be just days before the presidential election.  
One thing, however, is already clear.
Whatever the relevance of the new e-mails to the probe of Clinton’s classified-information transgressions and attempt to destroy thousands of emails, these offenses may pale in comparison with Hillary Clinton’s most audacious violations of law: 
Crimes that should still be under investigation;
crimes that will, in fitting Watergate parlance, be a cancer on the presidency if she manages to win on November 8.

  • (b) the circumvention of campaign-finance laws that prohibit political donations by foreign sources; (c) a vehicle for Mrs. Clinton to shield her State Department e-mail communications from public and congressional scrutiny while she and her husband exploited the fundraising potential of her position; and 
  • (d) a means for Clinton insiders to receive private-sector compensation and explore lucrative employment opportunities while drawing taxpayer-funded government salaries.

Contributions skyrocketed to $126 million in 2009, the year Mrs. Clinton arrived at Foggy Bottom. Breathtaking sums were “donated” by high-rollers and foreign governments that had crucial business before the State Department. 
Along with those staggering donations came a spike in speaking opportunities and fees for Bill Clinton..."
