HSBC Leak Exposes Shady Clinton Associates

A massive leak of documents from HSBC’s Swiss banking arm has revealed an array of sketchy dealings with wealthy individuals, including dictators and arms traffickers, through which the bank helped unsavory characters dodge taxes and avoid government scrutiny.

Among the unsavory characters exposed in the leak are a number of prominent donors to the Clinton Foundation. For example, the leaked documents detailed a five million Swiss franc cash transaction to British business mogul Richard Caring:

HSBC staff explained handing Caring the huge sum of cash by quoting a statement by him that he planned to deposit the cash with another Swiss bank, and did not want either bank to be aware of the other. They wrote: “RC goes to great lengths to maintain discretion.” …

The files show Caring, a major donor to British politics, transferring $1 million to the Clinton Foundation, a nonprofit set up by the former U.S. President Bill Clinton with the stated mission to “strengthen the capacity of people in the United States and throughout the world to meet the challenges of global interdependence.”

Yawn. Really, it has already been forgotten and will have no bearing whatsoever on any outcome. Is there anyone here who doesn't believe that during the election there will be revealed a half dozen or more stories like this and nobody is going to care? This is one of the terrible outcomes, political tragedies as a result of the Obama elections. That no matter how debased, corrupt, unqualified any candidate is going to be revealed to be, it won't make single difference. You can be accused of beating you wife, not paying your taxes,(Geithner) having no standards whatsoever and the people won't care. It's gotten that debased thanks to folks like the Clintons and Obama.

Shhh….Hillary is running her presidential campaign on shady donations such as this, just as Obama did. It’s the Democrat version of campaign financing.

Laws are for the little people.

Shut up and pay yer taxes, peasants, so that the Garths in Washington can Party On!

You’re correct. The lame-stream media doesn’t care what transgressions liberals commit. They openly admire how they manage to skate.

Unless the dirt is on a REPUBLICAN!

There is a rumor started by Esquire that her absence from the Campaign trail is because she is in Alcohol Rehab. Is anybody chasing this down?

[Night Hides Not]

Where’s John Huang and Charlie Trie? Bill Clinton will never set foot in the White House as a First Spouse. He’s worth a few million sympathy votes as the First Corpse. I hope he’s hired a food taster.

Yeah. NBC has Lyin' Brian on the case the first day back.

Arms trafficking-— Bengauzi. Check the date of Caring transfer

[WildHighlander57]

Article says the donation by Caring was requested in 2005.

Doesn’t say when the transfer was done.

Benghazi was on 9-11-2012.

Btw, the pic shows bill Clinton wearing a Hillary 2008 campaign pin.

[WildHighlander57]

Anyone able to ferret out when Caring did the transfer?

[hoosiermama]

If not that one then check others. Read the purpose of their fund with arms transfers in mind

[LucyT]

Hillary tries to make it to the top.

Article and esp. # 6.

Thanks, WH57.

RE: #6, I heard a caller to Rush’s show say that Her Thighness was having plastic surgery done. Rumor? Who knows?
