Bill Clinton used tax dollars to subsidize foundation, private email server

Bill Clinton's staff used a decades-old federal government program, originally created to keep former presidents out of the poorhouse, to subsidize his family’s foundation and an associated business, and to support his wife’s private email server, a POLITICO investigation has found.

Taxpayer cash was used to buy IT equipment — including servers — housed at the Clinton Foundation, and also to supplement the pay and benefits of several aides now at the center of the email and cash-for-access scandals dogging Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.

Politico takes red pill? Flying pork!

[ReaganGeneration2]

1) Gov’t purchase records must exist, or not
2) Wasn’t this a question Hillary must answer in writing under oath?

It would be safe to say the Clintons and their ‘do good’ foundation are anything but. These people have been shown to be anything but do gooders for the past two decades. One as corrupt as the other. It is time AMERICA awoke to the truth that surrounds these two Arkansas powers and the damage they have done not only to Arkansas, but to America as well. When the Bushes back away from such evil and corruption....this should be the water line for all who continue to praise them.

It is not only America that needs serious renovation...it is our ‘politicians’ who could benefit from much needed changes as well.

The POLITICO analysis also found that Clintons’ representatives, between 2001, when the Clintons left the White House, and the end of this year, had requested allocations under the Act totaling $16 million. (Excerpt) Read more at politico.com....

If 16 million dollars was reported, you know it is much much more....b/c this is how the greedy Clintons roll.

The Clintons MO is to falsify official reports ..... the preferred criminal method to cover-up larger crimes.

[Grampa Dave]

Amen, Bro!

This is from Politico?

Must be blood in the water

[pieceofthepuzzle]

Why would the ‘former Mayor of LA’ know anything about this, or be a good person to ask an opinion from regarding this? This is what passes for reporting?

[stephenjohnbanker]

“The Clintons MO is to falsify official reports ....”

Hillary has been an expert at “falsifting reports” since age 27 on the DNC Watergate Committee. Over 40 years of this, so she out to be a veritable expert by now : )

[GOPJ]

Clintons - both of em’ - - white trash to the bone.

[oh8eleven]

This is what passes for reporting?
On MSNBC it is.

Charity Navigator has UPGRADED the foundation standing as of TODAY - 9/1/16... I saw on the foundation’s site that Donna Shalala had an announcement of such so I looked at CN to verify...Hmmmm - can’t help but wonder just how cozy the “ongoing relationship” is....Heightened interest merits changing the rating? I guess in the Clinton world of associates it is.

“”A charity watchdog with an ongoing relationship with the Clinton Foundation gave the former first family’s nonprofit high marks Thursday, after an evaluation prompted by the heightened interest in the organization.

The Clinton Foundation received four out of four stars — the highest rating that Charity Navigator gives after a close look at a charity’s finances. The rating is based on annual federal tax documents. It was not intended to reflect whether Hillary Clinton kept donors to her family’s foundation at appropriate arm’s length or provided favored access as secretary of state.””

The greedy Clintons dreamed up the do-good schemes....b/c the scumbags knew they could make a bundle on do-goodism. As the old saying goes....."People likely to say they are for their fellow man are planning to make a buck on it."

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

AS FREEPER x-spurt INSIGHTFULLY POSTED: the Clinton Foundation was able to dupe the public w/ another trick: revising their “charitable contributions” from 5% or 15% up to an amazing 80%...... by giving the money to a large number of smaller mini-Clinton Foundations, all claiming to be "charities."

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

The the cunning Clintons created a dizzying area of "do-good projects" (AKA Hillary's Super-Pac and/or the Clintons' slush funds).

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

CLINTON GLOBAL INITIATIVE web site

Peruse 276 web PAGES of obscure "mini-charities"---the MO to keep the money rolling in.

NOTE The do-gooder Clintons calculatedly morphed into
"The Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Family Foundation".....
giving them even more fund-raising capabilities w/ a friendly "family" aura.

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

One day, as cameras clicked, little Chelsea frowned, said she's worried about the elephant population.....BOOM another Clinton do-good fund raiser was born.

“”On Sept. 16, 2011, the government purchased a $7,707.98 Dell server””

From the article:
“”they submitted an invoice in September 2011 to the GSA to purchase a $7,700 Dell””

The article states that GSA turned down this request because they couldn’t be assured it would be used solely for the president’s office and not the foundation. Interestingly the Clinton aide said that Politico received wrong information from GSA as they did get the server from the government in 2010!!!!! A year before they submitted their invoice?

I guess it gets pretty difficult to keep things straight when you spend your whole life trying to pull the wool over people’s eyes. Clintons trained their people well. It makes me wonder if ANY of the hundreds hitched to the Clinton coattails have trouble sleeping at night wondering if they might be caught up also when the SHTF. Can you imagine giving up everything in your life just to ride their roller coaster? No thanks!

Hillary Has to Answer These 25 Questions Under Oath By Sept. 29

http://thefederalistpapers.org/us/hillary-has-to-answer-these-25-questions-under-oath-by-sept-29?utm_source=CT&utm_medium=CT&utm_campaign=CT

By the end of September, Hillary Clinton will have to answer – under oath – some very interesting questions about her use – and abuse – of a private email server while Secretary of State.

[Liz]

Get ready for Hillary’s lie-a-thon.

[Liz]

Hillary Clinton has a demonstrated record of showing contempt for the rule of law:

<><> • As a top govt official, she refused to tell the truth about the deadly Benghazi terrorist attack that took place on her watch

<><> •She violated the law and avoided accountability by using secret email accounts as Secretary of State

<><> •She sold out her office to benefit the so-called Clinton “charity” (The Clinton Corruption Foundation).

And isn’t it amazing? Obama knew NOTHING about all of this (cue laugh machine).

[Liz]

The C/F got IRS’ okay to raise funds for the Arkansas Clinton Library....not as a global “do-good.” Certainly not approved as a global money-raking criminal pay- to-play organization.

---

<><> ITEM-—Wall Street whistleblower Charles Ortel quoted a former managing director of Dillon, Read & Co thusly: “under New York law, tax authorities dont have to show criminal intent to get convictions against foundation officials.”

” Authorities need only show that the Clinton Foundation filed materially misleading financial information but kept on fundraising for a myriad of do-good projects.”

<><> ITEM-—The criminal element’s MO to hide larger crimes is to falsify official documents. =========================================

<><> ITEM——The legal culpability of a tax-free “charity” consists of:

<><> soliciting and taking money, and,

<><> showing how they spend it.

<><>the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton (BHCC) Foundation,

<><>the Clinton Foundation Hong Kong,

<><> William J. Clinton Foundation Charitable Trust (Kenya),
