Amid Investigation, DOJ Employees Donate Thousands to Hillary Clinton


Hillary Clinton hasn’t received much good news lately about her email scandal, but it’s not all bad. While the FBI continues their investigation, the money seems to indicate that the DOJ is going to stand firmly behind the wannabe presidential candidate no matter what.

Hillary Clinton has received nearly $75,000 in political contributions from employees at the Department of Justice, the agency that would decide whether or not to act if the FBI recommended charges against Clinton or her aides following its investigation into her private email server.

Justice Department employees have given Clinton far more money than her rivals, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) and Donald Trump, according to a review of federal campaign contributions for the 2016 presidential cycle.

Clinton collected $73,437 from individuals who listed the “Department of Justice” as their employer. Twelve of the 228 contributions were for $2,700, the maximum individual amount allowed by law.

The fundraising haul marks a dramatic increase over Clinton’s unsuccessful presidential run in 2008, when she took in 23 contributions totaling $15,930 from employees at the agency, according to data compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics.

Trump, by comparison, has received little help from Justice Department employees, recording just two contributions for a total of $381.

Sanders has taken 51 donations totaling $8,900 from Justice Department employees.

So much for a fair and neutral trial. Regardless, the evidence against Hillary may very well be too overwhelming to ignore. According to many, even with the Justice Department behind her, her conviction is all but guaranteed.
