The Clintons' Other, Truly Bodacious Mine Boondoggle
American Thinker ^ | April 27, 2015 | Jack Cashill

Snip...It was with this trip, for instance, that the CEOs accompanying the Clintons saw their $100,000 donation to the DNC morph from a discreet expectation into the price of admission. With this trip, too, shadowy figures like Gene and Nora Lum, John Huang, Charlie Trie, and Thai citizen Pauline Kanchanalak began to operate in the open. All would later be charged in one scandal or another. In Jakarta, Bill Clinton quickly got down to business. He chided Democrats for their historic “adversarial” relationship with business and Republicans for their “inactive” one. Boasted Clinton, “We have unashamedly been an active partner in helping our business enterprises to win contracts abroad.” Unashamedly? As to human rights, Clinton made clear that there were different rules for Indonesia from those for South Africa or Serbia. “We do not seek to impose our vision of the world on others,” he groveled. “Indeed, we continue to struggle with our own inequities and our own shortcomings.”

When doing something nets you a whole lot of money, you tend to do it again and again.

By reminding themselves how many Low Information Voters there are out there I guess.

Brill Krinton!

Never knew what the real story was behind making another national park.

Utah should tell the Feds to shove it and reclaim their land.

What are the Feds gonna do about it anyway? No more polygamous marriages?

Been there and checked that off the requirements for state hood.

WAY BACK THEN .....CEOs accompanying the Clintons saw their $100,000 donation to the DNC morph from a discreet expectation into the price of admission....

FAST-FORWARD In March 2015 Judge Gladys Kessler of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia ordered the State Department to produce passenger manifests from 47 overseas trips that Mrs. Clinton made as secretary of state. (Citizens United requested the manifests last July through a Freedom of Information Act Request. )

There seems to be a solid connection between:

(1) donors to the Clinton Foundation,

(2) companies receiving contracts from foreign countries, and,

(3) Clinton Foundation donors receiving favorable treatment from the State Dept.

<><> Sixty companies contributed $26 million to the Clinton Foundation.

<><> Forty four of those companies also contributed to a $3.2 billion dollar fund established at the Clinton Global Initiative (a wing of the foundation).

<><> At least 25 companies made contributions to fifteen private/public partnerships set up by ex-Pres Clinton;

And who administered all of them?.......the State Department w/ Hillary at the helm.

===========================================

Congress needs to launch multiple investigations into Hillary’s State Dept tenure including that of her confidantes:

<><> expense accounts,

<><> use of federal credit cards,

<><> their participation in the State Dept's disbursement of funds to "private contractors;"

<><>her possible collusion with the Clinton Foundation--using classified info as an instrument for fund-raising.

Hillary's official calendar, and her contact with foreign leaders. will tell the tale of donations to the foundation....and the Clintons profiteering off secret intel.

The NYT reported this week on the unseemly transfer of cash to the Clintons from parties interested in a major uranium deal. The Canadian company selling Uranium One to the Russians donated $2.35 million to the Clinton Foundation. And Russians tied to the deal gave Bill Clinton $500,000 for a Moscow speech. So critical was the deal that it needed the approval of the US State Department.....facilitated by Hillary.

The Clinton Foundation got Millions from a Russian who trades with Iran: Victor Pinchuk owns the EastOne Group investing company and the Interpipe Group. He is the second richest man in Ukraine AND the largest individual donor to the Clinton Foundation......the Foundation spinoff "The Clinton Global Initiative" received millions from Pinchuk while Hillary was Secy of State.

New Yorker magazine confirms Bill Clinton pocketed $500,000 for a speech in Moscow that was paid for by “a Russian investment bank" that had ties to the Kremlin” at the time of the lucrative Uranium One deal.

<><> Was Uranium One corporate money ever deposited offshore?

<><> In Russian banks? Maybe Sberbank or Vnesheconombank?

<><> Maybe funneled from there to secret numbered accounts in Zurich and Geneva?

================================================

<><> Maybe deposits in secret accounts held by Obama?

We peons are asked to believe that Obama was on the golf course when foreign policy decisions were being made......looking like he "didn't know" about all these radical changes in foreign policy.

Heck, it wasn't b/c Valerie "forgot" to tell him.

<><> Maybe the deal was Obama pleading abject ignorance about US foreign policy being jerked around by the Clintons.......as long as he got his cut of the Clintons' foreign policy finagling?
