Clinton Foundation was subpoenaed

The Hill reports:

The State Department’s Office of Inspector General issued a subpoena to the Clinton Foundation last fall as part of an investigation into projects that may have required federal approval during Hillary Clinton’s tenure as secretary of State, according to The Washington Post.

The subpoena asked for records related to longtime Clinton aide Huma Abedin, who for several months in 2012 was simultaneously employed by the Clinton Foundation, the State Department and a private consulting firm with ties to the Clintons.


Abedin's work arrangement was approved after she was designated a “special government employee.”

In its report, the Post cited people familiar with the subpoena and written correspondence about it. The full scope of the investigation is unclear.

Mistakes were made.
