Clinton Foundation crimes case gets revived

1

Clinton Foundation, most-scandalous family venture of Clintons may now come under radars of international media as a whistleblower case involving a foundation launched by former President Bill Clinton and former first lady Hillary Clinton has been revived by a US tax judge in the wake of special counsel John Durham completing his ‘Russiagate’ probe.

According to Just the News, The revival of the Clinton Foundation case comes after Durham, in his post-investigation report, noted that there were “significant failures to investigate allegations against” the charity.

The report stated that the “judge has once again breathed new life into a years-long whistleblower case alleging IRS improprieties involving the controversial Clinton Foundation”.

Previously, US Tax Court Judge David Gustafson had refused an IRS request to dismiss the whistleblower case, which was initially filed in 2017. Notably, three years ago, he instructed the tax agency to disclose whether it had conducted a criminal investigation into the foundation. His request was prompted by a puzzling “gap” found in the IRS’s records, raising suspicions and prompting further inquiry, the outlet noted further.

Following the IRS’s filing of a new motion to dismiss, all parties involved in the case presented their arguments over the course of the past year. However, on Monday, Gustafson decided to delay ruling on those motions and instead requested new arguments considering three recent court rulings that have set important precedents.

The decision once again thwarts the IRS’s attempts to bring the case to a close, causing further frustration for the agency.

The three recent rulings in other tax cases “may affect the parties’ positions as to the pending motions”, Gustafson noted in his ruling. “We will order further filings so that the parties may address those recent opinions”.

The judge granted an extension to whistleblowers John Moynihan, a former federal agent, and Larry Doyle, a corporate tax compliance expert. They have until June 30 to provide updated arguments, while the IRS has until July 28 to respond.

That means it is highly likely that the case will continue for several more months, Just the News added, noting further:

Monday’s ruling adds new intrigue in a case that first surfaced nearly five years ago when Doyle and Moynihan, two respected forensic financial investigators, revealed the existence of their 2017 IRS whistleblower complaint against the foundation during a congressional hearing.

Moynihan and Doyle testified to a House committee in December 2018 that they believed the foundation wrongly operated as a foreign lobbyist by accepting overseas donations, then trying to influence U.S. policy.

The foundation “began acting as an agent of foreign governments early in its life and throughout its existence”, Moynihan said at the time during his testimony. “As such, the foundation should’ve registered under FARA (Foreign Agents Registration Act).

“Ultimately, the foundation and its auditors conceded in formal submissions that it did operate as a (foreign) agent; therefore, the foundation is not entitled to its 501c3 tax-exempt privileges as outlined in IRS 170 (c)2”, he added.

The foundation has admitted that previous internal audits identified compliance issues with certain practices but maintained that those problems have since been addressed.

In October 2020, Gustafson allowed the whistleblower case to move forward, rejecting the IRS’s request for summary judgment. In his decision, he referred to nonpublic evidence that indicated the possibility of a joint criminal investigation by the FBI and IRS targeting the foundation.

Gustafson raised the possibility that the IRS whistleblower office may possess undisclosed evidence pertaining to the case.

“There are facts and information, uniquely within the knowledge of the Whistleblower Office that need to be considered in connection with the resolution of the petitioner’s claim”, he wrote in May 2021.

“Some of that evidence burst into public earlier this month when Durham divulged in his 306-page final report that the FBI had four ongoing investigations during the 2016 election into Bill and Hillary Clinton’s business and philanthropic activities”, Just the News noted.

“As the 2016 presidential election was reaching its conclusion, all four investigations were terminated, with senior FBI and Justice Department officials allegedly playing a role in delaying or halting the probes”, the report added.

  1. Not Surprised! Clinton is the best mate of American loan shark-cum-money launderer-cum tax evader-cum thief, Yunus. Clintons are also the best mate of the genocidal Killer Kissinger of 1971, Who just like America’s evil/civil servant Yunus, won a Nobel PISS Prize too. Nobel PISS Prize was created by an facilitator of WAR (when it was meant to somehow stop war). The creator of dynamite “Alfred Nobel”, Biden and Obama are also in this team of terrorists and thieves of the Clintons Democrat ISIS NaZi War mongering empire too. Under the Democrats they not only tried to Save Kissinger’s war Criminals of 1971 by sending John Kerry to Bangladesh to stop the execution of their Terrorists Mollah aka Butcher of Mirpur, but also Killary/Hillary, asked before the elections of 2001, both to Hasina and Khaleda Who the Contract of Sylhets Gas field would go to, Khaleda gave the right Answer to AmeriKAKA, Hasina gave the wrong Answer, thereby Killarys government didn’t support Hasina, NOT Only that after Hasina came into power in 2009, their Evil Civil Society American Loan Shark Yunus got retired from Grameen Bank (coz of his retirement age) a bank that he created only by name, didn’t even spent a penny of his OWN money to create the Bank it was the money of Bangladesh and the poor in Bangladesh which he looted to root his position in Killary/Obama and Bidens Administration. (can add more, like, Yunus and his American Evil/Civil Society Team of Killary’s Administration, Not only created the One Eleven, but also the Minus 2 Formula, in order to Bring in another American Evil Society Puppet Opportunist Thief into power of Bangladsh, if you Minus the 2 major leaders of the time like Khaleda and Hasian, it will create a political Void that was created by the Yunus Evil Society managed military backed Caretaker government, which held administration for over 2 years, an unelected Caretaker government role for administration an so-caled free and fair election is meant to be maximum of 3 months, but the Yunus backed American Evil Society Caretaker Government, with the help from corrupt military of the time, over stayed their welcome for more than 2 years, the aim of the Corrupt Clinton Administration was to bring in their Thief Yunus into power, that didn’t happen, to ISIS NaZio’s Clintons disappointment Hasina came into power with a Landslide Victory in 2009, Since then the Democrats Killary Kissingers (yes Kissinger is a very good friend of the Killary DyNASTY, even though he is a Republican) has it in For Hasina, just look at what the Geriatric War Mongering Biden is Now Dictating to Bangladesh now, Killary Obama both rooted the ISIS in the Middle East, Biden Now rooting the Taliban back into Afghanistan, and Now his War Mongering NaZIO’s in Ukrain, All have one thing in Common to Fight off the Russian Influence in those regions, and destroy those nation, and then Sell America Billion Dollar Contracts to develope and rebuild their nations innit ?
