Gifts to Hillary Clinton’s Family Charity Are Scrutinized in Wake of Book[uranium for Russian donor]
Wall St. Journal ^ | April 22, 2015 | James V. Grimaldi, Rebecca Ballhaus and Peter Nicholas

Posted on 04/23/2015 12:59:42 AM PDT by grundle

Hillary Clinton’s State Department was part of a panel that approved the sale of one of America’s largest uranium mines at the same time a foundation controlled by the seller’s chairman was making donations to a Clinton family charity, records reviewed by The Wall Street Journal show.

The $610 million sale of 51% of Uranium One to a unit of Rosatom, Russia’s state nuclear agency, was approved in 2010 by a U.S. federal committee that assesses the security implications of foreign investments. The State Department, which Mrs. Clinton then ran, is one of its members.

Between 2008 and 2012, the Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative, a project of the Clinton Foundation, received $2.35 million from the Fernwood Foundation, a family charity run by Ian Telfer, chairman of Uranium One before its sale, according to Canada Revenue Agency records.

The Fernwood contributions don’t appear on the Clinton Foundation website, as was required under an agreement between the foundation and the Obama administration.

The people doing the investigation better get food tasters and stay out of airplanes and parks.

The Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative! Wow, one of many scams the Clintons have to funnel money into their little nest egg foundation. Bill and Hillary are quite the little schemers!

The NSA has them. The Mega Memory Deathstar data bank just has to be sifted using the right keywords. IMO, there is not one electronic bit that goes anywhere on this planet that is not captured and saved by NSA.

NSA? No Such Agency?

Bob McDonnell, former Virginia governor, and his wife are in Prison for accepting a golf bag, a Rolex, an Armani dress, a $15k wedding gift to their daughter for giving, “access” to a health food / nutritional supplement manufacturer in Virginia.

If the McDonnell’s are in prison for gifts for, “access” how can the Rodham-Clintons not be?

Rumor has it when the Grintons left the White House, they figuratively stripped it. Furniture, rugs, china and probably a lot of the Gifts by Foreign Dignitaries that were supposed to be turned over for storage.

The only thing I can say about your question is a line from Mel Brooks, "It's Good to be King!"

WSJ REPORT: Hillary Clinton’s State Department was part of a panel that approved the sale of one of America’s largest uranium mines at the same time a foundation controlled by the seller’s chairman was making donations to a Clinton family charity, records reviewed by The Wall Street Journal show. Between 2008-2012, the Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative, a project of the Clinton Foundation, received $2.35 million from the Fernwood Foundation, a family charity run by Ian Telfer, chairman of Uranium One before its sale, according to Canada Revenue Agency records.

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

BOMBSHELL The Fernwood contributions to the Clinton Foundation don’t appear on the Clinton Foundation website, under an agreement between the Clinton foundation and the Obama administration.

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

LET'S GO OVER THIS AGAIN: The WSJ reports the Obama administration had an "agreement w/ the Clinton Foundation" not to list Fernwood Foundation's contributions to the Clintons on its website.

CONCLUSION This explains why, just the other day, White House press secretary Josh Earnest asserted that the Clinton Foundation was “doing excellent work all across the world” and that President Obama was “incredibly proud” of Hillary Clinton’s record at the State Department.

So when Obama was on the golf course when foreign policy decisions were being made by his WH, looking like he "didn't know" about all these radical changes in foreign policy it wasn't b/c Valerie "forgot" to tell him.

Apparently, the insider deal was Obama pleading abject stupidity about US foreign policy being jerked around by the Clintons.......as long as he got his cut of the Clintons' foreign policy finagling.

The Clinton Foundation's "Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative".....just one of many scams the calculating Clintons use to funnel money to themselves using their "do-good" tax-exempt foundation.

Hundreds of millions spew into the Clintons' tax-exempt foundation.....which the conniving Clintons calculatedly morphed into hundreds of separate fund-raising machines.

The newly-minted "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.

Here's a peek at how 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...if you're a practiced con artist.

CLINTON GLOBAL INITIATIVE web site
peruse 276 web pages of obscure programs
all of them vehicles to raise money
all of the cash divvied up w/ Obama and other insiders,
all of the donors salivating for payback w/ Hillary in the WH.

This is much the same as Stalin's quote, "One death is a tragedy; one million is a statistic". Take a Rolex as a bribe and people can relate. Take millions, and people's eyes glaze over.

The NSA has Hillary's deleted emails. The Mega Memory Deathstar data bank just has to be sifted using the right keywords.

Another avenue of approach is OMB---Office of Management and Budget.

OMB handles all the financials that involves taxpayers subsidizing ex-presidents once they leave office----

Health insurance, pensions, security detail......furnishing and paying their office expenses....including phone bills.

Officially, OMB oversees and coordinates procurement, financial management, information, and regulatory policies.....to help improve administrative management, to develop better performance measures and coordinating mechanisms, and to reduce any unnecessary burdens on the taxpayers.

The OMB also manages other agencies' financials, paperwork, and IT.

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

Congress needs to subpoena Clinton's OMB documents and release the info to the tax-paying public.

Details are needed WRT the number of electronic devices in possession of the Clintons that OMB is paying for......where they're at....and what it's costing taxpayers.

ASK YOUR CONGRESSMAN FOR CLINTON'S OMB INFORMATION.

Possibly. IF we were dealing with someone honest. Frankly, OMB only has what Clinton allowed them to have.

Clinton's been out of office for years---none of these scandals were heard of back then.

The Clintons pay for nothing w/ their own money.

They had no idea those old records might be perused....or that Hillary's server.....and her emails were to be a huge problem.

I believe you're right on this - but does Obama control the NSA?
