The officials, who spoke only on condition of anonymity, said the probe is examining whether the Clintons promised or performed any policy favors in return for largesse to their charitable efforts or whether donors made commitments of donations in hopes of securing government outcomes. The probe may also examine whether any tax-exempt assets were converted for personal or political use and whether the Foundation complied with applicable tax laws, the officials said. One witness recently interviewed by the FBI described the session to The Hill as "extremely professional and unquestionably thorough" and focused on questions about whether donors to Clinton charitable efforts received any favorable treatment from the Obama administration on a policy decision previously highlighted in media reports.I don't think it's an unreasonable reaction to at least raise concerns over whether perhaps one politicized Justice Department has given way to a new politicized Justice Department, just with the partisanship reversed. Are law enforcement officials again being pressured to serve the political agenda of the party in power? That's a fair worry; the president has not been subtle.
Comment: Amen. The American government doesn't care at all for the Iranian people. It's all a PR show. They don't even realize that many protesters were hard-liners who would be more happy with an Ahmedinejad government - hardly the American-style "freedom and democracy" the Trump admin seems to think the Iranians are calling for. Cynical. Opportunistic. Sad.
