NY POST EXCERPT--EMPHASIS ADDED---Under disclosure rules, Hillary Clinton was only obligated to identify the source of her spouse’s income and confirm that he received more than $1,000. As a result, the precise amounts of Bill Clinton’s earned income from "WJC, LLC" "consulting" have not been disclosed, and it’s not known how much money was routed through "WJC, LLC."

"WJC, LLC" was set up in Delaware in 2008 and again in 2013 and in New York in 2009, according to documents obtained by The AP. The company did not appear among holdings in the Clintons’ financial disclosure released last week or in previous Hillary Clinton disclosure reports between 2008 and 2013, when she resigned as secretary of state. Bill Clinton signed a document as its “authorizing person” in a corporate filing in Delaware in 2013.

NOTE A limited liability company is a commonly used business structure that provides tax advantages and limited legal protection for the assets of company owners and and limited legal protection for the assets of company owners and partners.

The purpose of Bill Clinton’s US-based company was not disclosed in any of the corporate filings in Delaware and New York, but State Department files recently reviewed by the AP show that "WJC, LLC" surfaced in emails from Bill Clinton’s aides to the department’s ethics officials.

In February 2009, Clinton’s counselor, Douglas Band, asked State Department ethics officials to clear Bill Clinton’s consulting work for three companies owned by influential Democratic party donors. Memos sent by Band proposed that Bill Clinton would provide “consulting services regarding geopolitical, economic and social trends affecting the entity and philanthropic opportunities” through the "WJC, LLC" entity.

State Department officials approved Bill Clinton’s consulting work for longtime friend Steve Bing’s Shangri-La Industries and another with Wasserman Investments, GP, a firm run by entertainment executive and Democratic party donor Casey Wasserman.

The ethics officials turned down Bill Clinton’s proposed work with a firm run by entertainment magnate and Democratic donor Haim Saban--a major Foundation donor and Clinton intimate--because of Saban’s active role in Mideast political affairs. (NOTE Saban also heads the latino Univision network.)

"WJC, LLC" was also cited by Band in a June 2011 memo sent to State Department ethics officials asking for clearance to allow Bill Clinton to advise Band’s international consulting company, Teneo Strategy LLC. Band’s request said Teneo would use “consulting services provided by President Clinton through WJC, LLC.” State Department officials approved the three-year contract between the two companies. None of the proposals detailed how much Bill Clinton would be paid.

NOTE " Teneo" was one of Huma Abedin's so-called clients AT THE SAME TIME she worked a dual role----employed by Hillary at the State Dept.
