Will this be 22 more dead bodies in the Clinton wake of death? "Mysterious circumstances"?

I'm sure they all signed non-disclosure agreements.

I hope they signed CCW permits too. And learned how to use their firearm. As the Clintons know, something's just can't be unseen.

That is incorrect. The majority of the time layoffs happen it is to prevent the failure of a company. Seasonal or contract work for example requires layoffs as if the company never reduced it's force to match it's workload it would go bankrupt. It is rarely to just increase net profits.

Closures, such as this one, are another big source of layoffs.

Good. One scumbag gone, one to go.

Ya and the MK Ultra experiments on our own citizens was a big LMAO too right? Don't be so quick to discredit anything, as an ATS member I expect a more open mind from you.
But just laugh away, in twenty years when everyone involved is dead and the secrets of their misdeeds slowly trickle out I hope you realize your narrow mindedness

They have to shut this down as part of Hillary's Pardon Deal. As the CGI could be described as an ongoing criminal enterprise, it has to end before the Pardon. If it kept going after the Pardon, those ongoing operations would be fresh for purposes of investigation, and prosecute-able.

Surely he can’t pardon someone in advance of committing a offense. So someone better give her a speeding ticket real quick.

Not sure if you were being sarcastic, but the President absolutely can (and has) pardoned people before any formal charges were brought.

Remember Ford pardoning Nixon? Nixon had not been formally charged with anything although there was definitely a crescendo forming about impeaching him. But he was never impeached (which is the US House bringing formal charges) let alone tried in the Senate which is phase 2.

Ford said Nixon has resigned - and for the good of the country in his opinion - decided to leave it at that.

Once pardoned, a person *cannot* be charged for any of those offenses that occurred prior to the date of pardon. After the date of pardon, the person's own their own...

This, it's called a pre-emptive pardon. Good article on the pardoning powers of the president.

Hard to say.

Unless he shows his tax returns.

Dont hold your breath. Keeps Leftists' "panties in a wad"

Is CHAI (Clinton Health Access Initiative) also shutting down? I know that the foundation had made it a separate entity in 2010, so I'm wondering if it will remain functional.

No wasn't being sarcastic. Thanks for the clarification. A Get Out of Jail Free card for the elite is ludicrous.

Yup.

And that's exactly what it is if the Presidential pardon is used in that way.

Obama only has 3.5 days left to pardon or issue executive orders. He's already done a lot of things in the past week that will make it difficult for the incoming Trump administration. I have a strong feeling this isn't over yet...

We'll see.

And remember, Riff, that Bill Clinton's most controversial pardon, Marc Rich, was done on the very last day in the very last hours. I expect the same from Obama.

Oh, I remember that one clearly.

It stunk so bad, they had to leave the White House windows open for a week afterwards to air the place out.

Talk about pay-for-play or government for sale...

a reply to: Riffrafter

And yet as unethical and sleazy as THAT was, the Clintons weathered the public outrage, left the White House (dead broke according to them) with the mechanisms in place to end up making multi-millions of dollars in more underhanded and pay-to-play activities.

Will Obama do the same? It took a long time for the Clintons to build their corrupt machine. IMO, when Obama turned a blind eye to her activities while she was SOS (failing to appoint the requisite watchdog IG), that machine was still in the process of getting built.

If he pardons her, IMO, he was and is complicit in helping to continue in the construction of that corrupt machine. It is left to be seen if the Obama administration is part and parcel.

I agree 100% with this.

I guess we'll see. We don't have too much longer to wait. 2.5 days at this point, roughly...
