New Abedin Emails Reveal Hillary Clinton State Department Gave Special Access to Top Clinton Foundation Donors

 

http://www.judicialwatch.org/press-room/press-releases/new-abedin-emails-reveal-hillary-clinton-state-department-gave-special-access-top-clinton-foundation-donors/


The CP of Bahrain is the second in command of a strategically critical country that hosts the US Naval Command for the 5th Fleet.

 

I don't think asking for an appointment at short notice is "special access", simply a convenience.


And this is utter rubbish:
 

Quote

 

Salman committed to establishing the Crown Prince’s International Scholarship Program (CPISP) for the Clinton Global Initiative. And by 2010, it had contributed $32 million to CGI.  

 

 

In reality, what Salman set up is a program that takes the brightest young Bahraini male and female students (Sunni or Shi'a) and funds their higher education (overseas) and career development. He's spent $32 million on that (not that it leaves him short at the end of the month).

He did this at the suggestion of Clinton.

To say this is him "contributing $32 million to CGI" is laughable. It's deliberately worded to make it sound like the Clintons got it in their pocket, which is obviously garbage.

New Abedin Emails Reveal Hillary Clinton State Department Gave Special Access to Top Clinton Foundation Donors

 

http://www.judicialwatch.org/press-room/press-releases/new-abedin-emails-reveal-hillary-clinton-state-department-gave-special-access-top-clinton-foundation-donors/

 

From your link.

So, on Tuesday,  Doug Band, from the foundation, sends a note to HRC aide  saying the crown prince of  Bahrain, a major US ally, would like to have a meeting on Thursday or Friday with HRC. Also mentions request  already made through official channels.  Response to official request was HRC not sure she will be available and does not want to commit.  On Thursday,  email sent to Band saying meeting is on Friday and has been confirmed through official channels. 

 

Just exactly what is the issue?  I don't see anything that says his donations impacted his access the Hillary.  He is the number 2 person in Bahrain,  why would Hillary not give him a meeting that fits into her schedule?  

 

We don't even know if Band was requested to send his mail. He could have been doing that on his own after hearing from someone on the Crown Prince staff that the Crown Prince Edward was in NY and was expecting to meet Hillary as meeting had been officially requested. 

 

All about insinuations and half truths with no substance.  Perfect fodder for the susceptible.

I think most of us know by now that you can believe everything Bill and Hilary Clinton say to protect their criminal enterprises.  Using the highest office in the land for economic gain used to be a 3rd world country event.   Not anymore.

Clinton pledges constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United ruling

By BENJAMIN ORESKES

 

07/16/16 01:28 PM EDT

 

“The amendment would allow Americans to establish common sense rules to protect against the undue influence of billionaires and special interests and to restore the role of average voters in elections,” a Clinton spokesman said in statement.

 

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/07/hillary-clinton-citizens-united-225658

 

 

 

A summary of your own article seems to say that Clinton declared this stuff because Bernie was breathing down her neck and an expectation she would carry much of this through especially campaign finance was a surprise. You can Google a list of her donors if you want, a lot are hedge funds and banks. Pot kettle black. If she gets in as President I would be surprised too because she would miss all that funding in the next election

Well, there must be something seriously amiss with this Clinton Foundation to warrant Rudi Guiliani, the former well-respected Mayor of NYC to label it a Racketeering Enterprise. :whistling:

 

http://www.newsmax.com/Newsfront/rudy-giuliani-clinton-foundation-racketerring-enterprise/2016/08/21/id/744499/

 

I don't know how this has happened but I have to agree with Boon Mee. Rudy Giuliani is now certainly formerly well respected. Although the whole 'America's Mayor' thing really went to his head and he has traded off it for years now. It no longer excuses his enabling, if not downright collusion with the criminal former New York Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik. Giuliani now acts as a deranged Trump fanboy having finally found his ideological home, that is getting in bed with money to keep his tarnished, ever diminishing relevance alive.

 

Well done Boon Mee for noting this.

 

And what's this about his teeth? http://www.mediaite.com/tv/bill-maher-says-rudy-giulianis-teeth-look-like-someone-flew-a-plane-into-them/ Is he too stingy or can't afford caps for both sets?

The problem is that there is an appearance that there is no dividing wall between the Foundation and the State Department. These things should be better handled and at arm's length otherwise it looks like selling influence. This has been Hillary's problem all along, not separating State Department business from personal activities, visa vie the server and missing/deleted emails and her one/many devices. All far too murky and deliberately misleading hence the vulnerability she has created for herself. Careless at best, corrupt at worst. But she has everyone on side including the Press and looks like the Justice Department too who all want her coronation.

The problem Chicog is that the Secretary of State's appointments were prioritized outside the US Government.  Since when did a "charity" prioritize official government meetings based on donations?

And then, 4 weeks later, attended several closed-door, private fund-raisers with those super-PACS (that are backing her) in California last week. It's getting deep in here. :whistling::cheesy:

Hillary is a Powerbroker . Thats why she isnt in Jail yet. And probably never will, but it could easely cost her the voting.

We wonder how Bubba is going to deal with these new revelations that FBI Director Comey's relationship with his 'foundation' might have influenced Crooked H. getting off, eh?

 

Exposed: FBI Director James Comey’s Clinton Foundation Connection

 

WASHINGTON, D.C. — A review of FBI Director James Comey’s professional history and relationships shows that the Obama cabinet leader — now under fire for his handling of the investigation of Hillary Clinton — is deeply entrenched in the big-money cronyism culture of Washington, D.C. His personal and professional relationships — all undisclosed as he announced the Bureau would not prosecute Clinton — reinforce bipartisan concerns that he may have politicized the criminal probe.

These concerns focus on millions of dollars that Comey accepted from a Clinton Foundation defense contractor, Comey’s former membership on a Clinton Foundation corporate partner’s board, and his surprising financial relationship with his brother Peter Comey, who works at the law firm that does the Clinton Foundation’s taxes."

Corruption all the way! :facepalm:

Clinton Foundation has always been highly rated by the organizations that judge these things. It actually helps millions of people. 

 

There has been very little Trump charitable giving. How about none? Yet, the Clinton Foundation has been under constant attack by the right.

 

It's so predictable, the right will condemn anything the Clinton's touch. They have no choice. She's slaughtering Trump and they need to fight back back. Unfortunately for them all they have are the lies about HRC they repeat constantly. :coffee1:

 

You're losing. You're losing badly. You're going to lose all 3 branches of the government. Get use to it. The Republican party is toast.

One of my favorite miraculous coincidence that mostly missed the Clinton criminal enterprise in the press.

 

“A few weeks after Hillary Clinton was sworn in as secretary of state in early 2009, she was summoned to Geneva by her Swiss counterpart to discuss an urgent matter. The Internal Revenue Service was suing UBS AG to get the identities of Americans with secret accounts,” the newspaper reports. “If the case proceeded, Switzerland’s largest bank would face an impossible choice: Violate Swiss secrecy laws by handing over the names, or refuse and face criminal charges in U.S. federal court. Within months, Mrs. Clinton announced a tentative legal settlement—an unusual intervention by the top U.S. diplomat.

More bad news for the Clinton bunch:

 

Clinton Foundation Operated Illegally, Chelsea Appears to Have Embezzled

 

chelsea2.jpg

 

Chelsea Clinton actually arranged for an independent “governance review” of the Clinton Foundation and had it conducted by a prominent law firm, New York law firm of Simpson Thacher, a firm that specializes in philanthropic issues. The results were devastating. They concluded in December 2010 that the Clinton Foundation had a weak, rubber stamp board of directors and many of its donors had “an expectation of a quid pro quo benefits in return for gifts.”

This came out in a Wikileaks email Thursday.

For those of you still in denial and defending the Clintons Crime Family.

 

Who voted Bill Clinton to lead the The Interim Haiti Recovery Commission (IHRC)? Yes, the Hillary Clinton State department.

Who received preferential treatment in getting contracts to rebuild Haiti? If anyone had any doubt, of course it was "Friends Of Bill"

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/fobs-hillarys-state-dept-gave-special-attention-friends/story?id=42615379

 

Then theres this little nugget

"[Qatar] Would like to see WJC ‘for five minutes’ in NYC, to present $1 million check that Qatar promised for WJC’s birthday in 2011,” Ami Desai, director of foreign policy for the Clinton Foundation, wrote in 2012.

Leaked email exchanges allegedly between Hillary Clinton and her 2016 campaign chair John Podesta reportedly show the Democratic nominee identify Saudi Arabia and Qatar as “clandestine financial and logistic” supporters of ISIS.

“While this military/para-military operation is moving forward, we need to use our diplomatic and more traditional intelligence assets to bring pressure on the governments of Qatar and Saudi Arabia, which are providing clandestine financial and logistic support to ISIL [Isis] and other radical Sunni groups in the region,”

The Clinton Foundation left a toxic legacy in Colombia

 

“They are doing nothing for workers,” one Colombian union official told us, with disgust. “I don’t even know what they are doing in this country other than exploiting poverty and extracting money.

Meanwhile in Big Bubba Land; Donald not Bill ..... :D

 

Donald Trump’s namesake foundation has done a lot of good for one man: Donald Trump. Missing, it would appear, is a philanthropic mission and evidence of charitable work.

The Trump Foundation has come under increased scrutiny after a series of revelations by the Washington Post that the Republican nominee may have improperly spent donations intended for charity.
  The Trump Foundation: what's known is shocking. We need to know more

 Trump’s foundation suffered another major blow when the New York attorney general’s office ordered the charity to immediately suspend fundraising in the state, and warned that refusing to do so would be “continuing fraud”.

 

The paper has uncovered that Trump gave $25,000 from his charity to a political group supporting Florida’s Republican attorney general, Pam Bondi, who was weighing whether to launch an investigation into Trump University, his defunct, for-profit educational enterprise that is at the center of a class-action lawsuit brought by former students. Bondi ultimately declined to open an investigation.

 

In a string of later revelations, the Post revealed that Trump used $258,000 of his charity’s money to settle legal disputes, including one involving the height of a flagpole at his Mar-a-Lago club. Other notable expenditures involving charitable money include $12,000 on a helmet signed by football player Tim Tebow, $20,000 on a six-foot portrait of himself and some years later, $10,000 on another portrait of himself.

 

 

Can you Imagine if the Clinton Foundation did things like the above? We would never here the end of it. As it is Big Bubba Donald it is not mentioned at all  hah. .

Hypocrites

Really? I didn't know that. 

 

He posts so much absolute crap here, you can assume if it's a Boon post it's more of the same. Consistently wrong about everything.  

 

This is of course, ridiculous.

You might want to look into it. it has been all over the MSM  and internet news.

Of course you probably wont and keep your head firmly stuck in the sand if you already believe it is ridiculous.

It is interesting to see when the facts are reported about Hillary or the Clinton foundation the liberal lefties on TV automatically say it's a lie. But yet when lies are reported on Trump they automatically say it's the truth.

You expect it to be taken seriously when the content in no way reflects the name they've given their URL which contains "clinton foundation operated illegally chelsea appears to have embezzled"?

Maybe if you replace "Clinton" and "Chelsea" with "Trump" you'd be nearer the truth.

 

Because it has and he has.

Bill's gotta do a lot more defending of this racketeering enterprise they call the Clinton Foundation as more and more revelations come out that it's simply a criminal enterprise:

 

Wikileaks: Trusted Clinton Foundation Insider Was Caught Loading Spyware on Computers, Reading Employees Emails

 

It appears the hacking of the Clinton Foundation may have been an inside job. A high ranking aide “Justin” was caught loading spyware on multiple computers and going through Blackberries.

It's back in the news again boys:

 

Bob Woodward on the Clinton Foundation: ‘It’s Corrupt

 

On this weekend’s broadcast of “Fox New Sunday,” veteran journalist Bob Woodward said Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s family organization the Clinton Foundation was “corrupt.”

I'm a bit puzzled by these accusations of corruption and so called "pay for play" .
What it seems to me they are saying is Hillary did favors for people (of which there is no proof) , not in return for money in her pocket, but to get medication to babies with AIDs in Africa.  And this is a criminal enterprise.

Only 5% of the Clinton slush fund went to charity.

Just enough to maintain the appearance of being charitable.
