The Clinton Vindication And The New York Times

Rachel Maddow reflects on the recent finding of "nothing to see here" in the Trump- initiated federal investigation into the Clintons, focusing on the role of the New York Effing Times in promoting the story and other Clinton nothingburgers, often working hand- in- glove with Trump's ratfuckers:

Trump's Clinton "Investigation" Folding

In addition to President Obama (see post below), sociopath and would-be tyrant Donald "Lock Him Up" Trump has former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton living rent-free in his unstable head. Eager to divert from the fact that she whipped his large ass by nearly 3 million votes in 2016, Trump maliciously used the Justice Department (shame on them) to launch an investigation of the Clinton Foundation and the bogus "Uranium One" story. The U.S. Attorney for Utah John Huber was assigned by then-Attorney General Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III, who was under attack by Trump for the Russiagate investigation, to poke around in those areas, but according to reports, after two years he's come up with (surprise!) nada:

"As a part of his review, Huber examined documents and conferred with federal law enforcement officials in Little Rock who were handling a meandering probe into the Clinton Foundation, people familiar with the matter said. Current and former officials said that Huber has largely finished and found nothing worth pursuing — though the assignment has not formally ended and no official notice has been sent to the Justice Department or to lawmakers, these people said.  

The effective conclusion of his investigation, with no criminal charges or other known impacts, is likely to roil some in the GOP who had hoped the prosecutor would vindicate their long-held suspicions about a political rival."

This was a classic example of Trump's need to project ("You're a puppet," "Lyin' Ted," "Crooked Hillary," etc.) his flaws and felonious behavior on others. His fraudulent "foundation" proved to be nothing more than a piggy bank for him and his family to raid for their own needs, and was shut down and fined $2 million for that reason.

In recent months, in an attempt to undermine intelligence and law enforcement's position that Russia meddled in the 2016 election on Trump's behalf, Trump has sent his sycophantic and corrupt personal lawyer (who poses as the Attorney General) William "Low" Barr around the globe to investigate the investigators from the Russiagate scandal. He'll come up empty, too, but will undoubtedly lie about any "findings" in order to appease Trump (and indirectly the Kremlin).
