Clinton aide says Foundation paid for Chelsea’s wedding, WikiLeaks emails show

Former President Bill Clinton’s top aide wrote in 2012 that Chelsea Clinton used Clinton Foundation resources “for her wedding and life for a decade” and a top Foundation donor was responsible for “killing” unfavorable press coverage – all as an internal Foundation audit uncovered numerous conflicts of interest and “quid pro quo benefits,” according to emails released Sunday by WikiLeaks.

Doug Band, founder of global strategies company Teneo and Bill Clinton’s personal assistant since the 1990s, wrote the Jan. 4, 2012, email to future Hillary Clinton presidential campaign chair John Podesta and two other Clinton aides after receiving word that Chelsea had told “one of the [President] bush 43 kids” and others about “an internal investigation of money within the foundation.” Band wrote such chatter was “not smart.”

“The investigation into her getting paid for campaigning, using foundation resources for her wedding and life for a decade, taxes on money from her parents….,” Band wrote. “I hope that you will speak to her and end this[.] Once we go down this road….”

Chelsea has a net worth of $15M.

She’s a complete moron (read her Wikileak emails) and was getting paid $600k a year for a no-show job at NBC.

Her husband using insider info from Hillary about Greece managed to lose investors over 50% of their money.

This leak seems comparatively minuscule to what we have seen to this point...but it is something easy for the LIV to understand.

Wish this and the maid story had come out a bit sooner...maybe last Thursday.

Chelsea Clinton worked for 1 year for NBC - at a salary of $650,000.

She has a net worth herself of $15 million. Like her mother, she must be some kind of savant at commodity futures speculation.

Counted the expenditure under “charity”, probably.

Hillary has no business running for President. These criminal creeps like Doug Band and John Podesta openly talk about how the Clinton Foundation is nothing more than a shell charity whose sole purpose is to generate cash for the executive staff, yet the justice department has yet to make any arrests. The U.S. is on the cusp of having the nation turned into nothing more than a criminal enterprise to service a few at the top.

Chelsea Clinton used Clinton Foundation resources “for her wedding and life for a decade”

Is anyone truly surprised?

Everyone should ask for their donations back. Of course, they’ll never know because CNN will never report it.

I had to pay for my own $500 budget wedding and for every decade of my life after 18. Where did I go wrong? Some are more equal than others.
