Was a major investigation derailed? “Canโ€™t talk about the CF,” an IRS memo states in recounting how IRS agents suddenly cut off contact with whistleblowers providing information after months of cooperation.

Years after the FBI was forced to shut down multiple corruption probes of Bill and Hillary Clinton’s charity, the IRS under President Donald Trump began a criminal tax investigation into the Clinton Foundation and its dealings with other players on the global charitable stage, but then abruptly stopped working with whistleblowers in spring 2019, according to IRS memos and internal emails reviewed byย Just the News.

“Canโ€™t talk about the CF,” a memo states in recounting how IRS agents suddenly cut off contact with two whistleblowers they had been working with for weeks. One of the whistleblowers was a decorated former federal money laundering analyst who had testified before Congress about issues like terrorism financing.

The documents, released under the Freedom of Information Act, add aย new body of evidenceย about the federal government’s concerns about the former first family’s famous global charity as well as aย persistent narrativeย of federal agents being thwarted in their pursuit of investigations tied to major Democratic Party figures.

John Moynihan, a retired Drug Enforcement Agency financial crimes analyst, and Larry Doyle, a corporate tax compliance expert, had spent years researching the Clinton Foundation, testifying to Congress about it and providing the IRS with evidence of alleged financial wrongdoing by the Clinton Foundation.

The whistleblowers’ cases

Moynihan and Doyle are currently pursuing two separate whistleblower cases involving the Clinton Foundation in U.S. Tax Court, one of which is tentatively slated for trial on Dec. 1. That case includes references to documents from an IRS criminal investigations division investigation.

The memos show the duo submitted multipleย IRS Form 211ย โ€œApplications for Award for Original Informationโ€ โ€” which could have given them a financial reward if taxpayer funds were recovered as a result of what they had unearthed and shared with the IRS about the Clinton Foundation.
