HSBC Leak Exposes Shady Clinton Associates
Washington Free Beacon ^ | February 9, 2015 | Andrew Stiles

Posted on 02/11/2015 7:01:55 AM PST by lbryce

A massive leak of documents from HSBC’s Swiss banking arm has revealed an array of sketchy dealings with wealthy individuals, including dictators and arms traffickers, through which the bank helped unsavory characters dodge taxes and avoid government scrutiny.

Among the unsavory characters exposed in the leak are a number of prominent donors to the Clinton Foundation. For example, the leaked documents detailed a five million Swiss franc cash transaction to British business mogul Richard Caring:

HSBC staff explained handing Caring the huge sum of cash by quoting a statement by him that he planned to deposit the cash with another Swiss bank, and did not want either bank to be aware of the other. They wrote: “RC goes to great lengths to maintain discretion.” …

The files show Caring, a major donor to British politics, transferring $1 million to the Clinton Foundation, a nonprofit set up by the former U.S. President Bill Clinton with the stated mission to “strengthen the capacity of people in the United States and throughout the world to meet the challenges of global interdependence.”

And Kent Hovind has spent nearly 8 years in jail for withdrawing his own money from a bank account in increments the IRS considers criminal. And in a new trial coming soon, faces a possible life sentence for 5 charges of mail fraud (20 years each) which are all trumped charges. Laws are for the Little People.

Unless the dirt is on a REPUBLICAN!

They don't need dirt on Republicans. A speck of dryer lint will do. By the time they are done at the MSM, it'll look like a cotton bale.

Maybe it wasn’t a rumor after all. When was the “after” picture taken?

Many thanks, hoosiermama!

Follow the money indeed.... those links show a staggering amount of money being slung around in those foundations.

Liz found the website with the donor list; many thanks Liz!

The "dead broke " Clintons got their geedy hands on billions of dollars......b/c .being president and Secretary of State has an astoundingly good monetary return.

Hundreds of millions flow into the Clintons three tax-exempt foundations which the Clintons calculatedly morphed into hundreds of separate fund-raising machines.

The Clintons' recently formed "The Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Family Foundation" gives them even more fund- raising capabilities......w/ a friendly "family" aura.

Earlier, a NYT's expose chronicled the shady financing of the tax-exempt money machine----The Clinton Global Initiative foundation.

CLINTON GLOBAL INITIATIVE web site
you can peruse 276 web pages of obscure programs
all of them vehicles to raise money
all of them expecting payback w/ Hillary in the WH.

WEB SITE http://www.clintonfoundation.org/clinton-global-initiative

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

To whom are the Clinton beholden for their vast wealth....accumulated in a short time after they exited the WH, in Hillary's words, "dead broke"?

BACKSTORY When Billy, the Boy From Hope, burst upon the political scene as a presidential candidate....he duped the voters and coached his Arkansas Mafia friends to say, “Money doesn’t mean anything to Bill Clinton"........

Now we hear he got a hundred million dollars while his wife controlled the State Dept checkbook......monies that were meant for Haiti (the place where the Clintons spent their honeymoon). Plus hundreds of millions flowing into their tax-exempt foundations which the Clintons morphed into eleven separate fund-raising machines.

BETTER ADD THIS IN, TOO News reports say the State Department announced it has "no idea" what happened to $6 billion used to pay its contractors..... a special “management alert” warned “significant financial risk and a lack of internal control at State has led to billions of unaccounted dollars over the last six years....under Hillary's watch.

Becoming president has a pretty good monetary return. That poor boy from Hope, Ark, made over $200,000,000.00 (that we know of) as a “public servant.”
