(DC Pundit) – A bombshell email discovered by investigative journalist John Solomon has exposed what appears to be one of the most brazen examples of political interference in federal law enforcement in modern American history. The smoking-gun document shows Obama’s Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates explicitly commanding FBI agents to terminate their criminal corruption investigation into the Clinton Foundation.
The revelation comes courtesy of documentation uncovered by FBI Director Kash Patel, who has proven to be quite the treasure hunter when it comes to finding embarrassing Obama-era communications.

We are all aware of Hillary Clinton’s private email server scandal. Clinton conducted official State Department business on a non-government server, a move that allowed her to conceal her Clinton Foundation’s pay-to-play operations while serving as Secretary of State. Judge Royce Lamberth described Clinton’s private email usage as “one of the gravest modern offenses to government transparency.”
The investigation that Yates ordered terminated was no minor fishing expedition. According to Solomon’s reporting, this was a fully predicated criminal case running simultaneously in New York, Washington D.C., and Little Rock. FBI agents were examining whether Hillary Clinton orchestrated an influence-peddling scheme during her tenure as Secretary of State, essentially running the State Department like a personal ATM for Clinton Foundation donors.
According to emails previously obtained by Judicial Watch, Clinton provided preferential treatment to Foundation donors while occupying one of the nation’s highest offices. The FBI had substantial reason to believe that foreign nationals and wealthy contributors were purchasing access and favors from the State Department in exchange for massive donations to the Clinton Foundation. Meanwhile, the Obama Justice Department apparently perfected the art of looking the other way.
The corruption runs deeper than initially apparent. Then-FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, whose wife conveniently received campaign funding from a Clinton ally while he personally attended meetings to solicit those very funds, reportedly locked down the investigation. McCabe demanded that no investigative actions proceed without his personal authorization – a remarkable coincidence of timing and authority.
FBI agents approached four separate U.S. Attorneys’ offices under the Obama administration seeking assistance with subpoenas, grand juries, and evidence collection. Three of the four offices refused outright to provide help. When federal prosecutors decline to assist FBI agents investigating potential high-level corruption, one has to wonder what kind of conversations were happening behind closed doors.
The most damning evidence, according to Solomon, is the document that Patel brought to light. In unmistakable terms, Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates directly instructed the FBI to “shut it down” regarding the Clinton Foundation investigation. This directive effectively granted the Clintons immunity from further legal scrutiny during the critical 2016 election cycle.
One might call this a stunning abuse of prosecutorial discretion, but that would suggest there was any discretion involved rather than what appears to be a calculated political decision.
Solomon reports that several prosecutors have now stepped forward, expressing willingness to cooperate with Congress and Trump-aligned investigators. Patel reportedly possesses additional explosive emails from Obama-era officials, which he plans to share with lawmakers. Given the current political landscape with President Trump back in office, these prosecutors likely feel more confident about speaking truthfully without fear of career retaliation.

The timeline tells its own story. Joe Biden’s Justice Department formally terminated the Clinton Foundation investigation in August 2021, after the FBI mysteriously abandoned their probes. “In August 2021, the F.B.I. received what is known as a declination memo from prosecutors and as a result considered the matter closed,” The New York Times reported.
And naturally, all the evidence has been conveniently destroyed forever. Nothing suspicious about that timing whatsoever.
The question now becomes: what other investigations were terminated to protect the political elite? If Sally Yates was willing to put her instructions in writing regarding the Clinton Foundation, one can only imagine what other communications are waiting to be discovered.
