There are questions about when the Clinton Foundation investigation was shut down by the DOJ and where the documents from the Foundation confiscated by the DOJ are being held.
On Wednesday the TGP reported that corrupt former DOJ operator Sally Yates shut down the Clinton Foundation investigation in 2016.
Investigative journalist John Solomon has uncovered a smoking-gun email from Obama’s Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates explicitly ordering FBI agents to shut down a criminal corruption probe into the Clinton Foundation.
Thanks to Judicial Watch, the American public was made aware of Hillary Clinton’s private email server.
Hillary Clinton conducted official business on a non-government server so she could hide her Clinton Foundation pay-to-play while she was head of the Department of State.
This reportedly happened in 2016 when Yates was still working in the DOJ. Shortly after President Trump was inaugurated Yates was gone.
But this date appears to conflict with a report from the New York Times in 2023. (Note how the NYT reports on the Clinton Foundation corruption as if it was a targeted hit against Hillary Clinton and not backed by a legitimate reason to investigate.)
The Justice Department kept open the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s family foundation for nearly all of President Donald J. Trump’s administration, with prosecutors closing the case without charges just days before he left office.
Newly released documents and interviews with former department officials show that the investigation stretched long past when F.B.I. agents and prosecutors knew it was a dead end. The conclusion of the case, which centered on the Clinton Foundation’s dealings with foreign donors when Mrs. Clinton served as secretary of state under President Barack Obama, has not previously been reported.
Mr. Trump, who campaigned on a promise to “lock her up,” spent much of his four-year term pressuring the F.B.I. and the Justice Department to target political rivals. After being accused by the president’s allies of serving as part of a deep-state cabal working against him, F.B.I. officials insisted that the department acknowledge in writing that there was no case to bring.
The closing documents, which were obtained by The New York Times as part of a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit, spelled the end to an investigation that top prosecutors had expressed doubts about from the beginning. Still, it became a rallying cry for Republicans who believed the F.B.I. would ultimately turn up evidence of corruption and damage Mrs. Clinton’s political fortunes.
The foundation became attack fodder for Republicans in 2015 after the conservative author Peter Schweizer published the book “Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich,” an investigation of donations that foreign entities made to the family organization. Mr. Schweizer is the president of the Government Accountability Institute, where Stephen K. Bannon, Mr. Trump’s former chief strategist, was a founder and the executive chairman.
A spokesman for the Clinton Foundation, Craig Minassian, said that the organization had been “subjected to politically motivated allegations with no basis in fact.”
This New York Times report claims that the corrupt Clinton Foundation investigation ended in 2021 but the Judicial Watch released a report this week claiming that the investigation ended in 2016. It can’t be both.
In addition, True Pundit reported in 2018 that documents related to the Clinton Foundation were picked up in Arkansas by the DOJ/FBI.

The point here is, if the DOJ/FBI had obtained Clinton Foundation files in 2018 in Arkansas, the DOJ/FBI should still have those files.
