Bill Clinton’s foundation cashed in as Sweden lobbied Hillary on sanctions
Washington Times ^ | 6/2/2015 | John Solomon and Kelly Riddell

Posted on 06/02/2015 5:21:56 PM PDT by sheikdetailfeather

Bill Clinton’s foundation set up a fundraising arm in Sweden that collected $26 million in donations at the same time that country was lobbying Hillary Rodham Clinton’s State Department to forgo sanctions that threatened its thriving business with Iran, according to interviews and documents obtained by The Washington Times.

The Swedish entity, called the William J. Clinton Foundation Insamlingsstiftelse, was never disclosed to or cleared by State Department ethics officials, even though one of its largest sources of donations was a Swedish government-sanctioned lottery.

As the money flowed to the foundation from Sweden, Mrs. Clinton’s team in Washington declined to blacklist any Swedish firms despite warnings from career officials at the U.S. Embassy in Stockholm that Sweden was growing its economic ties with Iran and potentially undercutting Western efforts to end Tehran’s rogue nuclear program, diplomatic cables show.

"The William J. Clinton Foundation Insamlingsstiftelse" organized in Sweden was buck-raking donations hand-over-fist, but the Clintons never disclosed this to, nor was it cleared, by the State Dept.....

Even more egregiously, this outrageous collusive/illegal conduct was never disclosed to Americans.

THIS IS INTERESTING (GAG) The William J. Clinton Foundation's extortion apparat in Sweden was raking in donations from the Swedish government-sanctioned lottery.

<><> Did Swedish lottery officials disclose this to Swedish ticket buyers?

<><> Do the by-laws and/or incorporation laws of the Swedish lottery allow monies collected in Sweden to be dispersed to Americans?

<><>How did the Swedish lottery handle Foundation donations on its official documents?

Cashing in is easy.

As any grifter will tell you, the trick is knowing when to cash OUT.

Have you been to Washington Times site this morning? It looks like it’s been hacked and the content on this story destroyed.

That’s exactly what it is going on, the press is totally playing this Clinton stuff down by diverting attention away with this Retardashian/Caitlyn freakazoid Jenner crap. Look at the NY Daily news today, it’s unbelievable. Every other story is Kadarshian while not ONE single solitary story mentions the Clinton criminal cabal..

I wouldn’t look to Dennis Hastart as a guide when it comes to “cashing out.”

Back to the thread.

"The William J. Clinton Foundation Insamlingsstiftelse" organized in Sweden was buck-raking donations hand-over-fist, but the Clintons never disclosed this to, nor was it cleared, by the State Dept.....

Even more egregiously, this outrageous collusive/illegal conduct was never disclosed to Americans.

Check out # 23 , # 24 , - and # 30.

Thanks, Liz.

THIS JUST IN: Breitbart News---The Clinton Foundation is hiding the names of secret foreign donors who contributed $5.4 million in 2011 and 2012 to the William J. Clinton Foundation…....

It's next to impossible to believe Obama knows nothing about the Clintons' buck-raking activities.

Remember she dropped out of the primary so he could forge ahead. A deal was made...undisclosed to the electorate.

Looks to me like they divided up the US govt. She got the State Dept.

Hillary ran it like a shadow govt. Bill trotted the globe acting like a "good will" ambassador.....he devised hundreds of obscure programs to collect billions.....supposedly dispersed to "aid" endless "do-good" projects.

Obama's protecting the Clintons---they're his meal ticket.

All of them are living happily ever after--getting rich on "tolerance and compassion."

Obama gets a cut of every deal the Clintons make.

It's easier to control a person with 'flaws' so to speak. Obama probably knew... and knew if she got out of line he had the goods to pull her back.

Thanks for the pic in post #4. The POS William Jefferson Criminal reminds me of the Christopher Walken evil character in the movie True Romance (when he confronts Dennis Hopper’s character in the film).

FUBC (apologies to Walken)
