Turkish Chobani Owner Has Deep Ties to Clinton Global Initiative and Clinton Campaign
Breitbart - Big Government ^ | 8-25-2016 | Lee Stranahan

TWIN FALLS, IDAHO – Hamdi Ulukaya, the Turkish-born billionaire best known for having founded the United States’ largest greek yogurt company, Chobani, has ties to both Bill and Hillary Clinton, the Clinton Global Initiative, Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta, and a host of other globalist corporatist figures including Warren Buffet. Chobani’s factory in Twin Falls – the world’s largest yogurt factory – has been at the center of Breitbart News’ investigative series into the small town’s refugee resettlement program.

According to CNN Money: starting in 2008, Chobani began to hire refugees to work in its upstate New York plant – and listening to Ulukaya speak at events like the Clinton Global Initiative and Davos, one can tell that the issue closest to his heart is refugee resettlement.

The Chobani billionaire’s many speeches and soliloquies on the issue of refugees combined with his extensive political connections may explain why establishment politicians, both Republican and Democrat, have swooned over Ulukaya, positively giddy to form “business / government partnerships” with him and to support his position on refugees.

Many people first heard about the Twin Falls refugee resettlement program when a five-year-old girl was raped at the hands of three refugee boys. More recently, a Muslim refugee molested a mentally retarded woman. Those stories led to a look at the wider conditions that led to refugee resettlement in the state of Idaho, a situation connected to the drive for cheap labor by the local food processing industry that Chobani is a major part of.

The number of US companies owned by foreigners or owned by investment bankers is beyond me. I looked up some companies and was shocked. I knew a number of products at the grocery store did not taste right or even cook/look right.

Isn’t it weird that a Turkish man can make Greek Yogurt and no one calls it “cultural appropriation” even when the Turks killed a hell of a lot of Greeks in the last 100 years or so?

Isn’t Turkish Muslims making Greek Yogurt like a Nazi German bakery making Predominately Jewish dishes?

BUMP - this needs to be widely known!!! Clintons took this Chobani businessman's money, and in return promised to import the Muslim "refugees" he "prefers" to hire to Detroit, other cities - taking up vacant housing and taking jobs from AAs, other Americans - Jeff Kuhner was all over this last week on his radio show, WRKO! -- BIG TIME BUMP, LET'S CONNECT THE DOTS OF THIS CLINTON ***CORRUPTION***!!!!

TB rates in towns where this is manufactured have increased dramatically as foreign workers man the lines.
