- The FBI probe of Jane Sanders, wife of Senator Bernie Sanders, is reportedly still ongoing.
- The enduring probe is the latest example of the growing politicization of the FBI and other federal agencies.
- The government's overall credibility is suffering its worst crisis in decades.
A new report from a local Vermont publication, which has been all over the story, suggests that the FBI's probe of Jane Sanders for her role in alleged bank fraud is far from over. Witnesses are still being interviewed and a grand jury may soon be impaneled.
Sanders is in the middle of accusations that while she was president of Burlington College, she and other administrators misled bank loan officers about the real number of donations pledged to the college. Those false figures were used to secure a loan for a major campus expansion that flopped and led to the college's closing in 2016.
It first came to light back in May of this year that the FBI was looking into the matter, and had begun to do so while Barack Obama was still president. At the time, it was the first sign of trouble for Sanders' brand as an above-reproach progressive.
His political fortunes are now still in jeopardy. But beyond Bernie's future, this story is the latest example of the serious threat to the credibility of America's federal law enforcement system.

Bernie BTFO!
Didnt this investigation start almost immediately after Hillary came down from her election loss bender? Like, before inauguration or at least before Trump had a chance to change the staff?
Oh yeah
The media relies on bad short term memory

Why is this a blow to credibility?

Bernie sanders wife is literally the avatar of greedy capitalism. The funny thing is that greedy capitalists are never actually engaging in capitalism, they always engage in cronyism and crime.

Did you read the article?
"In the Sanders case, it's not that the probe should be dropped. But it is problematic that this relatively simple case involving just one small erstwhile college and a small bank is taking so long to resolve. It seems to have begun just as Senator Sanders was challenging then-President Obama's chosen successor, Hillary Clinton. It continues just as Sanders is becoming an enduring thorn in the current president's side.
This appears to make the probe's extended shelf life clearly more about politics than anything else. Love or hate Bernie Sanders, that's simply not right."
They defrauded millions from investors, used bernie's political power to lean on the bank to make loans, filtered money through her daughter's woodworking school and then the college closed.
Teehee

Eat a dick leaf. Politics is the only reason this has dragged out. Any other person and they'd be rotting in prison.
>Politics is the only reason this has dragged out.
... and this is the entire point of the article? It LITERALLY says "it's not that the probe should be dropped" but that "the probe's extended shelf life" is political since its a "relatively simple case taking so long to resolve", hence the blow to the FBI's credibility.
The absolute state of burger education.
Sander's doesn't even register as a problem for democrats, you really think trump cares? It's all supposition on the author's part, there's nothing there that says sander's is getting a politicized bum rap. Show me how it taking so long is evidence of that, government is notoriously slow, and this has been kept almost entirely out of the limelight unlike trump stuff.
yes
