Clintons' speaking tour event in Toronto had 83% of the seats empty (Awww gee whiz alert)

Apparently the Clintons’ political life is set to end not with a bang but a whimper. I wonder what kind of envy Bill and Hillary Clinton experienced over the jam-packed arenas -- with thousands listening outside -- that President Trump always has, as they gazed out at the more than 15,000 empty seats facing them last night in Toronto on their stadium speaking tour. Even though curtains were erected cutting the arena in half, the vacant seats far outnumbered the occupied ones. The UK Daily Mail reports 3,300 tickets were sold in the Scotiabank Arena, which holds 19,800, 16.6% of capacity.

Perhaps even more humiliating, while ticket prices began at $53 (Canadian), the UK Daily Mail reported that "One ticket was going for $6.55 in the final minutes before the event."

We are convinced that President Barack Obama’s visit will give us a tremendous boost,” said Henrik Dam, the university’s vice-chancellor.
-——————— Yeah, and the Nobel Prize Committee thought that giving ZerO a prize would encourage him to be a better President. What could go wrong?

I think it is very telling that they started off in Canada and not in the US. They still have that gay puppy Trudeau’s support.

The only probable reason the Clintons had to go to Toronto was to receive a few million in cash payola from the Clinton Foundation which is an Canadian entity.

With all this coughing, I sincerely hope she takes care of her health. Before she dies, I want to see her publicly humiliated, tarred and feathered.

3,300 tickets were “sold” does not mean 3,300 attended..

True enough. Frankly the Hildebeast was hoping for a larger “audience” to permit greater money laundering of Clinton Foundation funds.

“Darn! Another golden opportunity to steal money was wasted.”

......probably the only reason the Clintons risked humiliation speaking to a sparse Toronto audience
was to receive a few million in cash payola from the Canadian branch of the Clinton Foundation .......

Kudos.....n-i-c-e take.

Clinton learned a lot about Canadian secrecy when he absconded to Canada to evade the draft.

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

The Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership is an initiative of the Clinton Foundation that was co-founded by Clinton and the Canadian, Giustra, in 2007.

As Secretary of State, did Hillary influence an Canadian-based international deal giving a Russian company 20% ownership of America's uranium production, in return for millions of dollars of cash donations to the Clinton Foundation?

Here is a list of 11 questionable items forming a chain of events:

1. September of 2005: Canadian Frank Giustra visits Kazakhstan with Bill Clinton. Days later, his company UrAsia wins a major uranium deal with the country.

2. 2006: Giustra donates $31 million to the Clinton Foundation.

3. February 2007: UrAsia merges with Uranium One and expands into the U.S..

4. June 2008: Russian atomic agency Rosatom begins talks to acquire Uranium One.

5. 2008 to 2010: Uranium One and UrAsia investors donate $8.65 million to Clinton Foundation.

6. June 2009: Rosatom acquires 17% of Uranium One.

7. 2010 to 2011: Millions more donated by Uranium One investors to Clinton Foundation.

8. June 2010: Rosatom requests Committee on Foreign Investment (of which the State Department is a member and its approval is needed) to approve a majority ownership in Uranium One, PROMISING NOT TO PURCHASE 100% of it, NOR TAKE IT PRIVATE.

9. June 2010: Bill Clinton receives $500,000 to speak at a conference held by the Russian investment bank involved in the Rosatom transactions.

10. October 2010: Committee APPROVES Rosatom's request to ACQUIRE A MAJORITY SHARE in Uranium One.

11. January 2013: Rosatom PURCHASES REMAINDER of Uranium One and takes it PRIVATE!.

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

The origins of the story were reported in the NY Times in 2008 by Jo Becker, a co-author of the recent NYT piece: Unlike established competitors, Mr. Giustra was a newcomer to uranium mining in Kazakhstan, a former Soviet republic. But what his fledgling company lacked in experience, it made up for in connections. Accompanying Giustra on his luxuriously appointed MD-87 jet that day was a former president of the United States, Bill Clinton....

Within two days, corporate records show that Mr. Giustra also came up a winner when his company signed preliminary agreements giving it the right to buy into three uranium projects controlled by Kazakhstan’s state-owned uranium agency, Kazatomprom. The monster deal stunned the mining industry, turning an unknown shell company into one of the world’s largest uranium producers in a transaction ultimately worth tens of millions of dollars to Mr. Giustra, analysts said.

Just months after the Kazakh pact was finalized, Mr. CLINTON'S charitable foundation received its own windfall: a $31.3 MILLION DONATION FROM MR. GUISTRA that had remained a SECRET until he acknowledged it last month. There are intricacies and subtleties to this story that aren't evident in the timeline.

For example, when Hillary assumed the job as Secretary of State, she assented to a limitation of the foundation's international activities and agreed to disclose contributors. It appears, at a minimum, there was incomplete follow-through upon these assurances. Furthermore, those involved in the transactions have denied that any special privileges were sought and that the donations were completely unrelated.

This popped up on redditt .....no info other than the photo...maybe more details will ooze out later.

Porn lawyer Avenatti with Giustra, right.

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

MEET FRANK GIUSTRA----This billionaire received $23 million of your tax dollars from Hillary's State Dept.

Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra is one of the Clinton Foundation’s largest donors. Giustra's $100 million contributions go directly: (1) to the tax-exempt Clinton Foundation, and, (2) to the Canada-based "Clinton-Giustra Enterprise Partnership." The "Clinton-Giustra Enterprise Partnership" in turn sends money to the Clinton Foundation......(according to Canadian tax records researched by "Clinton Cash" author Schweizer).

Thanks for the nice summary of the Clinton Foundation and the Uranium One fraud.

Also, I'm partial to that flow diagram you posted. It's stunning in its look, not just in the criminal activity it exposes. Here's a nice pic of the Hildebeast in-between coughing episodes.

Wow, so the dots connect. Porn lawyer Avenatti with Giustra.

What a fortunate coincidence. Maybe Huber can snare all these traitors and thieves in one big net.

LOL

It’s amazing the same ‘speeches’ corrupt dictators paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to hear can’t be given away for next to nothing here...

Makes a person wonder if maybe - just maybe - the corrupt Clintons were selling ‘future access’ to United States money...
