The Other Problem with Hillary’s Foreign Donors

by BRENDAN BORDELON March 16, 2015

The Clinton Foundation took money from governments receiving massive foreign aid. Two of the governments counted among the Clinton Foundation’s foreign donors aren’t exactly generous global givers. In fact, Algeria and the Dominican Republic, which both contributed to the Clinton Foundation, receive hundreds of millions of dollars yearly in foreign aid — including from the U.S. government. The Foundation is already under fire for accepting Algeria’s $500,000 donation for Haitian earthquake relief in 2010, during Hillary Clinton’s tenure as Secretary of State.

That grant was not cleared with the State Department’s ethics office, a requirement under a conflict-of-interest agreement for new government donors. But the contribution was unusual for another reason: the Algerian government has been a net recipient of foreign aid for decades.

It took $8.6 million in assistance from the U.S. government the same year that it made the donation. And in 2011 — a typical year for the North African country — it received $190 million in aid from foreign governments worldwide. Hillary Clinton visited Algeria and met with its president while she was Secretary of State in 2012.

I would substitute the word foundation for family. Foundations will live on....for decades.

"The Clinton Foundation took money from governments receiving massive foreign aid."

I've mentioned in the past that I thought the entire DemonRAT Party under Clinton and Obama has and is looting the treasury of the United States. Who was there to stop them? Who is there now to stop Obama? Nobody -- that's who. The Democrat Party will be flush with cash come the 2016 election and Obama will be a billionaire when he leaves office.

Hillary will not run.

They got her on the emails, they got "them" on the Clinton Foundation and it's only a matter of time before the shoe drops on Bill about the underage girl thing on the pervert billionaire's island.

She's ain't coming back from all of that.

The question I have is how do they launder the money from the Foundation to themselves personally or politically?

My guess is the Foundation makes grants to phony charities that then kick back part or all of the money to a Clinton entity.

They draw salaries from the foundation, expense lavish hotels, meals, parties, and every other expense you can justify as a business or charity expense. It’s a giant slush fund.

This is the story that will last.

Drip by drip, new donors will be investigated and clear quid pro quo’s will be discovered.

The email server thing is really bad only if they get their hand on the servers and can find deleted emails; otherwise this will be the one we will all be talking about.

Then the use of Foundation money will be looked at. $8.4 million in travel expenses in 2013 charged to the foundation. It is the Clinton’s personal piggy bank. I guess the $250,000 speaking gigs don’t generate enough cash for Hillary to pay for her own transportation!

I do not see much talk of Bubba’s enormous speech fees paid by State Dept while Hillary was in charge. He charged $300,000 and gave scads of talks to “earn” many millions. Huge conflict of interest, and rip off.

THIS JUST IN---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.

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

CASE IN POINT---The lucrative foreign contracts to companies that were Clinton Foundation donors were all administered by the State Department.....w/ Hillary at the helm.

<><> questions remain WRT how often CEOs and company reps traveled with Hillary;

<><> did the countries giving these companies lucrative contracts receive anything from Clinton?

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

CONNECTING THE DOTS Then-Secy Hillary gave Haiti $3.1 billion tax dollars from the tax-subsidized govt Foundation for Earthquake Relief.

This was followed by Hillary’s brother getting a rare gold mining permit; the last permit Haiti issued was over fifty years before.

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

POINTS TO PONDER:

<><> As Secretary of State, Hillary devoted much of her time in 2010 to the Haiti recovery.

<><> The Clinon Family Foundation accepted Algeria’s $500,000 donation for Haitian earthquake relief in 2010, during Hillary Clinton’s tenure as Secy of State at the time Algeria recd millions in foreign aid..

<><> The State Dept recently issued a "special management alert"-----that it had "no idea" what happened to $6 billion used to pay its contractors.....it warned “significant financial risk and a lack of internal control at State has led to billions of unaccounted dollars over the last six years....under Hillary's watch.

<><> Bill Clinton got his hands on hundreds of million of dollars while Hillary controlled the State Dept checkbook..... monies that were meant for Haiti.

<><> the newlywed Clintons spent their honeymoon in Haiti.

<><> listed as a Clinton Foundation donor: Clinton-Bush Haiti Fund---organized at the behest of Obama: GHWB-WJC principles.

After the earthquake in Haiti, the Clinton Foundation raised around $36 million for disaster relief, while the Obama Administration kicked in $3.6 billion.

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

Protesters gathered outside the Clinton Foundation in Harlem to complain about "missing money" from the US State Dept's recovery effort for the 2010 Haitian earthquake:

"New Yorkers with roots in Haiti protested, saying the picture [of the Haiti recovery] isn't so rosy," said the NY1-TV anchor. "People raised their voices to call attention to the missing money.

They protested outside the offices of the Clinton Foundation, which helped lead the reconstruction fund."

The protesters claimed that the US State Dept's $10 billion meant to help rebuild Haiti did little to help the country after the devastating 2010 quake. And that much of the money went to non-Haitian companies.

Said one protester, “The Haitian people are still living in very difficult conditions, still living under tents, while Bill Clinton and his cronies--they waste this money."

The question is how do the Clintons launder the money from the Foundation to themselves? My guess is the Foundation makes "grants" to phony charities that then kick back part, or all of the money, to a Clinton entity.

You got that right.

One foundation writing checks to a charity, a non-profit or another foundation, is considered by the IRS to be the most common form of money laundering and tax evasion.

POINTS TO PONDER

<><> NY Attorney General’s office eyes Epstein foundation / By Reuters The NY AG has sent letters to the charitable foundation of billionaire pedophile (Clinton pal) Jeffrey Epstein seeking information on whether it is complying with registration requirements.

Schneiderman’s Charities Bureau asked Epstein lawyer Darren Indyke to explain why Epstein’s foundation, which is incorporated in the US Virgin Islands, should be considered exempt from New York law. EXCERPT

http://pagesix.com/2015/03/06/ny-attorney-generals-office-eyes-epstein-foundation/?_ga=1.216503775.853495231.1367328433

<><> The financial hanky panky that can be conducted between two foundations is enormous----cited by the IRS as the locus classicus for money laundering an tax evasion.

<><> It's becoming clearer why Bill Clinton used a shocking 21 phone nos and email addresses----because L/E knows multiple phone no's and emails is an indication of possible money-laundering and tax evasion.

<><> Court documents in Clinton pal, Jeffrey Epstein's underage sex investigation, show that Epstein had 21 private e-mail addresses and phone numbers listed for Clinton and Clinton factotum, Doug Band.

Epstein kept Bill Clinton on speed dial as reports surfaced about Clinton attending sex parties at Epstein's "Orgy Island." Lawyers perusing documents stumbled upon e-mail addresses and 21 phone numbers for the fun-loving ex-president and his personal aide, Doug Band, stashed away in Jeffrey Epstein’s electronic directory, according to court documents.

<><> An earlier two-year federal investigation revealed an elaborate web to carry out multiple frauds. The frauds used a sophisticated system of multiple telephone voice-mail accounts and post office boxes to avoid scrutiny.

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

The Buckraking Clintons sucking up foreign donations is morally reprehensible----but the real crime is what exactly they are doing with the foreign monies once its in their Foundation's tax-exempt coffers.

FACTS ON FILE Then-Secy Hillary gave her close aide, Huma Abedin, “State Dept special status".

Huma was working for Hillary at State....... AND working for Bill Clinton, as a private contractor for his company, Teneo Holdings. Read on.

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

Back in Jan 2014, Sen Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) probed Hillary's State Dept aide's employment status...... asking how Huma Abedin got a sweetheart deal as an outside private six-figure consultant while at the State Department.

Abedin and hubby, disgraced sexter/loser ex-Rep. Anthony Weiner, purportedly hauled in some $350,000 in outside income on top of Abedin’s $135,000 govt salary.

Abedin held “special government employee” status, and worked a sideline---as a private contractor. One of Huma's clients was Bill Clinton's Company----Teneo Holdings----a dual-track consulting firm that calls itself the “next chapter in strategic advisory.”

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

HUMAN EVENTS EXCERPT: A former employee of bankrupt MF Global accused former president Clinton----chairman of Teneo's advisory board----of collecting $50,000 per month through his Teneo advisory firm in the months before MFG careened towards its Halloween filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, as hundreds of millions of investor funds disappeared.

Teneo was hired by MF Global’s former CEO Jon S. Corzine to improve his image and to enhance his connections with Clinton’s political family, said the employee, who asked that his name be withheld because he feared retribution, according to HE.

The source, who is no longer associated with MF Global, said Teneo is a dual-track company with one side devoted to merchant and investment banking and the other side set up to provide image and strategy consulting services. The Teneo contract with MF Global lasted some five months, the source said. The board cancelled it after Corzine resigned.

The trustee for cheated MFG investors later sued JPMorgan bank for return of about $450M that MFG had wire-transferred out of its accounts to JPM's bank.

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

An earlier NYT's expose tarred Bill Clinton w/ Teneo's sub rosa dealings. Teneo is run by Clinton aide---Doug Band. Prosecutors found Band and Clinton listed in pedophile's Jeffry Epsteiin's records as having a shocking 21 email addresses and tele nos........that L/E recognizes as the MO for money-laundering and tax evasion.

This is just a preview of what will happen in two years with an Obama Foundation. :-(

Why would anyone in the Algerian government care about Haiti or want to help its non-Muslim population? It doesn’t make sense. If they did, why not send the money directly instead of funneling it through Hillary?
