I see a DAN Gertler, not a John Gertler - but I don’t know what I’m looking at over there..

Dan Gertler (Gertler) is an international businessman and billionaire who has amassed his fortune through hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of opaque and corrupt mining and oil deals in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Gertler has used his close friendship with DRC President Joseph Kabila to act as a middleman for mining asset sales in the DRC, requiring some multinational companies to go through Gertler to do business with the Congolese state. As a result, between 2010 and 2012 alone, the DRC reportedly lost over $1.36 billion in revenues from the underpricing of mining assets that were sold to offshore companies linked to Gertler. The failure of the DRC to publish the full details of one of the sales prompted the International Monetary Fund to halt loans to the DRC totaling $225 million. In 2013, Gertler sold to the DRC government for $150 million the rights to an oil block that Gertler purchased from the government for just $500,000, a loss of $149.5 million in potential revenue. Gertler has acted for or on behalf of Kabila, helping Kabila organize offshore leasing companies.

In a related action, OFAC designated Pieter Albert Deboutte, Fleurette Properties Limited, Fleurette Holdings Netherlands B.V., Gertler Family Foundation, Oil of DR Congo SPRL, Jarvis Congo SARL, International Diamond Industries, D.G.D. Investments Ltd., D.G.I. Israel Ltd, Proglan Capital Ltd, Emaxon Finance International Inc., Africa Horizons Investment Limited, Caprikat Limited, Foxwhelp Limited, Caprikat and Foxwhelp SARL, Lora Enterprises Limited, Zuppa Holdings Limited, Orama Properties Ltd, DGI Mining Ltd, and Rozaro Development Limited.

Thank you, yes. It’s Dan. On the Gertler webpage, he lists Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Clinton Foundation as contributors and it is believed (hoped) in some quarters (including the youtube vlogger I posted) that the language of the Executive Order erects a sufficient umbrella over contributers to these organizations that those funds can be frozen as well. Thanks for taking the time to dig.

no, thank YOU for trying to explain this to me.. :)

Gertner and Fleurette are allied with Glencore, and with Marc Rich. That’s as far as I can get thus far..... I’ll wait for the Cliff Notes! from you and all...

I would think that a little digging into the klintoons and Haiti would do the trick.

How about Soros connections to antifa?

The prosecutions of the Bundys should also qualify.

I'll bet Hillary made quite a splat and a mess when they chucked her into the side of that van

I think it happened before they chucked her. In the first second of that video, you can see the female body guard giving a "hold my nose" signal.

Probably happened quite a bit.
