THIS JUST IN: Obama Foundation is raising big bucks but hiding the identities of its mega-donors
The tax-exempt Obama Foundation decided to mask the identities of its mega-donors. And we know why.....as president the Halfrican was laying the groundwork,
giving away billions of our tax to oil-rich Third World African countries....knowing it was coming back to him.

NOTE WELL: Obama's $1.3B giveaway to Iran was paid in cash Jan 22 and Feb 5 from a little-known fund administered by the US Treasury.The so-called Judgment Fund is made up of tax dollars Congress has permanently approved in the event it's needed....

SOURCE: fiscaltreasury.gov. -----The Judgment Fund was established to pay court judgments and Justice Department compromise settlements of actual or imminent lawsuits against the government. It is administered by the Judgment Fund Section, which is a part of the United States Department of the Treasury, Bureau of the Fiscal Service. The Judgment Fund Internet Claims System (JFICS) is the application used to process all Judgment Fund claims.

The Judgment Fund is a permanent, indefinite appropriation available to pay judicially and administratively ordered monetary awards against the United States. The Judgment Fund is also available to pay amounts owed under compromise agreements negotiated by the U.S. Department of Justice in settlement of claims arising under actual or imminent litigation, if a judgment on the merits would be payable from the Judgment Fund. The statutory authority for the Judgment Fund is 31 U.S.C. 1304.

If funds for paying an award are otherwise provided for in the appropriations of the defendant agency, the Judgment Fund may not pay an award. A federal agency may request that payment of an award be made on its behalf from the Judgment Fund only in those instances where funds are not legally available to pay the award from the agency's own appropriations.

Amounts paid vary significantly from year-to-year. Federal agencies are not required to reimburse the Judgment Fund except when cases are filed under the Contract Disputes Act (CDA) or the No FEAR Act (Notification and Federal Employee Antidiscrimination and Retaliation Act).

We can be contacted at judgment.fund@fiscal.treasury.gov or 202-874-6664.

UT-OH----J.Ansari Zarif, the Iranian deputy for parliamentary and Iranian affairs within Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
said he would expose "everyone who allegedly accepted bribes" to facilitate Obama's nuke deal with Iran.

THE FEDERAL MONEY KEEPS ROLLING IN----The Obama crowd (never expecting to lose in 2016) left a huge paper trail.
Soon as they occupied the WH, Obama placed his COS---Chicago Rahm Emanuel---in control of the US Dept of the Treasury.....
ponder that...... Chicago Rham was Obama's COS AND controlled Treasury.

"Mr President, you are now in complete control of the US Treasury."

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

THE SMOKING GUN---WSJ REPORT--On Jan 20, 2009 Timothy Geithner was appointed Obama's Secy of the Treasury. But within three weeks, the Obama White House tightened its grip on Treasury. Obama put his COS, Rahm Emanuel, in charge of Treasury---Rahm Emanuel's dual role was an unusual move. When he got to Treasury, WH COS Rahm Emanuel was so involved in the inner workings that the phrase "Rahm wants it" had become an unofficial mantra among subservient govt staffers, prostrate in obeisance, scurrying to accede to Rahm's wishes, according to Treasury government officials. Reported by WSJ / 05/31/09

Obama’s signature initiative for Africa in 2013-- a $9.7 billion US tax dollar plan to double electricity access in the world’s poorest continent -- has fallen well short of its goals, so far producing less than 5 percent of the new power generation it promised.

Obama announced Power Africa with an ambitious goal: to add 10,000 megawatts of power and supply electricity to 20 million households within five years.

As he addressed the U.S.-Africa Business Forum, the project has yielded less than 400 megawatts of new power after running into political and economic difficulties.--snip-- rest at bloomberg.com

Secy Clinton helped companies that donated to the Clinton Foundation profit off Africa
by Sarah Westwood | May 05, 2015 10:26 AM

Hillary Clinton's seeming refusal to take on corruption in African countries if the political status quo benefited foundation donors is evidence of the former secretary of state's favorable treatment of friends, author Peter Schweizer alleged in his new book, Clinton Cash.

As an example, Schweizer highlights a law Clinton supported when she was a senator from New York in 2006 that would have cracked down on the Democratic Republic of the Congo's illicit mineral trade — if she enforced it as secretary of state three years later. Instead, Clinton's "actions during her tenure as secretary of state came nowhere near the positions she had taken while in the U.S. Senate," the author wrote.. The Congo's corrupt trade of minerals such as copper and cobalt funds rebel groups that perpetuate the violence keeping the country in tatters.

Unrest in the region allows some companies to take advantage of the situation and negotiate lower prices for mining rights. "This kind of business could be enormously profitable if you were willing to look the other way on corruption and human rights," Schweizer wrote. The head of a Canadian company with an enormous stake in the Congo's mining and oil announced a $100 million donation to the Clinton Foundation through his charity on the heels of Clinton's first presidential campaign, the book noted. Lukas Lundin, a Swedish investor whose family had founded the Lundin Group, also personally gave between $1 million and $5 million to the Clinton Foundation prior to 2013, donor records show.

Lundin's lucrative mining operations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo were threatened by the piece of legislation Clinton herself had cosponsored in 2006. The Congo Relief, Security and Democracy Promotion Act would have upended the Congolese leadership that allowed Lundin to mine in the country unhindered, Schweizer wrote. When the struggling Congolese government attempted in 2008 to reclaim control over parts of the mine that holds the world's largest deposits of copper and cobalt, Lundin Mining reportedly resisted. The company claimed allowing the government a larger share in the mine would make the project "economically unfeasible," the Globe and Mail reported in 2008.

At the time, Lundin owned a 24.75 percent stake in the mine and another company, Freeport-McMoran Copper & Gold, owned 57.5 percent, leaving the Congolese government in control of 17.5 percent of the mine. Freeport is also a major Clinton Foundation donor, giving between $250,000 and $500,000, according to donor records. The Congolese government saw its stake in the mine climb by just 2.5 percent in 2010 after talks that were thought to have been conducted by the State Department "in support of Freeport," the Financial Times reported that year. Clinton's agency allegedly intervened in another dispute between a mining company and the Congo's government in 2009, Schweizer noted.

First Quantum Minerals, another Canadian mining corporation, was locked in a dispute with the Congolese government after winning the rights to a profitable mine using "questionable methods," the author wrote, alleging the firm bribed officials in the country to get the contract. Clinton's State Department intervened after the Congolese government stripped First Quantum of its business license, ensuring the company was paid $1.25 billion for its assets in the country, according to the book.

First Quantum's founder, Jean-Raymond Boulle, has had controversial ties to the Clintons for decades. In 1998, he dropped all business with the Congo's existing regime and began heavily bribing the incoming dictator, Laurent Kabila, in an apparent attempt to secure valuable mining property before the country's leadership changed hands, Forbes reported that year. The U.S. still backed the Congo's existing leader at the time.

The report suggested Boulle's ties to Clinton helped him seal the remunerative deal. "Did Boulle have advance knowledge that the U.S. was about to change sides, sealing the fate of the old dictatorship?" the Forbes report said. "We don't know; Boulle denies he had any help from the U.S. government. But we do know that Jean Boulle has interesting Clinton Administration connections."

Hillary’s Uranium One bribery thing ... (selling her office for cash is actually treason)

Just one of a raft of crime to send her to prison for the next thousand years (and those like obama who conspired to cover it up)

"The only 'Collusion' is that of the Democrats with Russia and many others," he tweeted Nov. 15. Mr. Steele is a paid Democratic Party operative who spread among Washington power elites pre-Election Day Trump gossip originating from Moscow.
