The New York Corruption Hunter Who is On The Clintons’ Trail


Bharara’s career was made after convicting former New York State Assembly Speaker, Sheldon Silver, who had accepted $4 million for helping a cancer researcher and two real estate developers, and he thought he was untouchable.

He also secured the conviction of New York Republican Majority Leader Dean Skelos, who was sentenced to five years in prison for corruption.

The former official said the investigation is being coordinated between bureau field offices and FBI managers at headquarters in Washington, D.C. The unusual process would ensure senior FBI supervisors, including Director James Comey, would be kept abreast of case progress and of significant developments.

The reliance on U.S. attorneys would be a significant departure from the centralized manner in which the FBI managed the investigation of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of a private server and email addresses.

That investigation was conducted with agents at FBI headquarters, who coordinated with the Department of Justice’s National Security Division (NSD).

The Clinton email probe was considered a “small cell” investigation, with FBI agents and NSD attorneys frequently conferring. Comey short-circuited the effort in early July by announcing that “no reasonable prosecutor” would try Clinton for the “careless” handling of classified material.

“Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information,” he announced in a July 5 press conference.

Comey, however, wouldn’t answer questions about any ongoing FBI investigation of the Clinton Foundation.

Any idiot could see that Comey was scared of whatever threat was made against him by Loretta Lynch. And with Comey again involved in these investigations, the chances of a Hillary conviction are slim. However, one can hope. Perhaps the evidence against the Clinton Foundation will be so overwhelming and so numerous that they’ll be unprotectable.
