Trump Goes After 'Bill Clinton, Inc.' Over Latest Wikileaks Revelation

Donald Trump went after the Clintons Thursday over another Wikileaks document revelation, a memo from Bill Clinton aide Doug Band detailing how he had raised money for the Clinton Foundation and secured personal income for Bill Clinton.

During his rally in Springfield, Ohio, Trump called the memo more evidence of Clintons being "corrupt."

"The more emails Wikileaks releases, the more lines between the Clinton Foundation, the secretary of state's office, and the Clintons' personal finances, they all get blurred," Trump said. "Just today we read about Clinton confidante Doug Brand [sic] bragging that he had funneled tens of millions of dollars to Bill Clinton, Inc., through the foundation donations, paid speeches and consulting contracts."

"Mr. Band called the arrangement unorthodox. The rest of us call it outright corrupt," Trump added. "If the Clintons were willing to play this fast and loose with their enterprise when they weren't in the White House, just imagine what they'll do given the chance to once again control the Oval Office."

Can't our govt find where it's coming from? IP addresses and block them? I suppose those could be scrambled or encrypted. But really, is our intelligence that inept and helpless to do anything? I can't see how the email dumps are doing anything to help with anything but mostly hurt. They know the russians are behind it and it's sole purpose is to influence an election. Why can't they shut it down?
