Emails: Hillary Clinton invited Putin to Clinton Foundation gala
Conservative Review ^ | 09/15/2017 | Jordan Schachtel

Was this the “collusion” you were looking for?

Just two months into her term as secretary of state, Hillary Clinton’s foundation invited Russian leader Vladimir Putin, along with several other prominent heads of state, to the Clinton Global Initiative’s 2009 annual gathering, emails obtained by the watchdog group Judicial Watch reveal.

The March 13, 2009, email from the Clinton Foundation showed that Putin and about 200 other leaders (including others just as controversial) were invited to attend a gathering that occurred at about the same time that the newly appointed secretary of state was attempting a “reset” with Moscow.

The email, which was sent from Clinton Foundation director of foreign policy Amitabh Desai to Assistant Secretary of State Andrew Shapiro and then forwarded to top Clinton aide Jake Sullivan, also highlights the potential massive conflict of interest between a non-profit foundation and the federal government.

This may come as a shock to casual observers of global politics, as Clinton represented herself as a fierce anti-Putin hawk on the 2016 election campaign trail. Clinton routinely reprimanded now-President Donald Trump for not condemning Putin. She called Trump’s stance on Russia “unseemly” and “beyond one’s imagination.”

Even after losing the election, Clinton has continued on the warpath against President Trump’s stance on Russia.

“He doesn’t just like Putin, he wants to be like Putin,” Clinton said of Trump on MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow show Thursday night.

But as secretary of state, Clinton took pains to engage with the Kremlin. Just one week prior to sending out the invites, Hillary flew to Geneva and presented the Russian foreign minister with an actual “reset button” to symbolize a new beginning in U.S.-Russia relations.

Alinsky Rule #1

Accuse your opponent of what you yourself are already doing.

Let’s face it, the whole Russia thing is an attempt to cover up a failed rigging of the election by Hillary Clinton and Debby Wasserman Schultz, with lots of neocon supporters.

The Russian Dossier was actually compiled on the activities of Hillary Clinton and her collusion with the Russians way back during the DNC Primary between Hillary and Obama. Obama never had to use it, because he won, so it went into the archives. McCain had Steele take it and rewrite it by changing the names and some of the details to make it look like it involved Trump and his staff.

That is why Hillary and the DNC are so adamant that Trump colluded with the Russians.

The info in the dossier alluded to serious crimes. But they weren't Trump's, they were Hillary's.

DOJ turning up the heat on Hillary.....DOJ prosecutors are planning to investigate (A) emails Hillary "forgot" to turn over, (B) the Clinton Foundation's finances, and, (C) then-Secy Hillary's pay to play relationships with foreign businessmen and foreign governments......

ITEM---The Australian newspaper the "Herald Sun" ran an October 2016 article entitled, “Why have we donated to Clinton’s foundation?” The paper noted "Former Australian Prime Minister Gillard donated $300 million of our money to the Clinton-affiliated Global Partnership for Education.”

That's one humongous amt of Australian govt money that fell into the hands of the conniving Clintons. The Herald Sun needs to dig deeper---to determine if any of that money took a circuitous route then landed back into the personal coffers of the donors. Could have happened like this:

BACKSTORY When he went to jail, investigators found Ponzi King Bernie Madoff had stashed billions offshore-----into a labyrinth of financial entities.

COLLUSION AND CONSPIRACIES GALORE Some $8.9 billion was funneled to Madoff through a dozen so-called feeder funds based in Europe, the Caribbean and Central America......a labyrinth of hedge funds, management companies and service providers that, to unsuspecting outsiders, seemed to compose a formidable system of checks and balances.

But the purpose of this complex architecture was just the opposite: the feeder funds provided different modes for directing money to Madoff in order to avoid scrutiny.....and taxes.

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

ITEM---Some observers inside Germany believe the German government has some explaining to do for the Clinton Foundation donation that appears under the heading “Donors and Grantors”.

“Why does a German Ministry supports the election campaign of a U.S. presidential candidate?” blogged Vera Lengsfeld — former civil rights activist and German parliamentarian. “It seems German taxpayers unwittingly financed Hillary Clinton’s election campaign.” There is also the question pending: how many German govt ministries gave money to the Clintons?
