A lot of new information has come to light since our last explanatory report on scandals surrounding the Clinton Foundation. Its time for an update. Heres everything you need to know about the latest Clinton Foundation scandals, but were too afraid to ask.
Hey, whats up?
Quite a bit, actually.
What did I miss?
A lot of new reports about the Clinton Foundation. Remember? Its the shady corporate/charity conglomerate founded by the leaders of the Clinton dynasty.
Oh, yeah. Whats the news?
Where to start? Newsweek reported over the weekend that one of the Clinton Foundations largest donorsUkrainian oligarch Victor Pinchukwas doing business with Iran between 2009 and 2013, while Hillary Clinton was secretary of state.
Wow. Wouldnt that violate U.S. sanctions?
Probably. Non-U.S. companies can face penalties under the law for trading with Iran, and have in the past.
Who was in charge of determining which non-U.S. companies get penalized?
Thanks for asking. The secretary of state oversees the list of foreign companies deemed in violation of U.S. sanctions against Iran.
Wasnt Hillary Clinton secretary of state during this time?
Thats right.
Oh.
Yeah.
What else?
Well, theres a new book coming out called Clinton Cash by Peter Schweizer. It reportedly provides examples of Clinton Foundation donors receiving favorable treatment from the State Department.
Peter Schweizer? Isnt he a raging wingnut?
Media Matters certainly thinks so, and other Clinton operatives are aggressively pushing this narrative. Its true that Schweizer has worked for Republicans in the past, but his research has targeted politicians of both parties. Liberal outlets have been happy to cite his work when it reflects poorly on Republicans. Speaking of which, Schweizer is currently investigating the finances of GOP candidate Jeb Bush.

Can we back up for a second? One of those reports mentioned something about the Clinton Guistra Sustainable Growth Initiative. Whos Guistra?
Sure, thanks for asking. Frank Guistra is a shady Canadian mining tycoon who has pledged $100 million in donations to the Clinton Foundation, on top of the $31 million he donated 2005, shortly after Bill Clinton accompanied him on a trip to Kazakhstan.
What were they doing in Kazakhstan?
Guistra was trying to win lucrative mining contracts from the government there. The two men attended a lavish banquet hosted by authoritarian president Nursultan Nazarbayev, whose abysmal human rights record had been criticized by Hillary Clinton, among others.
