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.” (Excerpt) Read more at freebeacon.com ...
===============================================
One of the most common M/L T/E scams is one foundation writing a check to another foundation----the check receiver takes a cut then deposits the rest offshore for the donor's use later---all tax-free.
======================================================
We learn a lot from Madoff. When he went to jail, investigators found Ponzi King Bernie Madoff had stashed billions offshore---into a labyrinth of financial entities. 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.
Although he was jailed for running a Ponzi, Madoff's main purpose was helping billionaire foundations launder money and evade taxes

CLINTON CONNECTION TO SECRET SWISS BANK ACCOUNTS The Clinton foundations also accepted a $25,000 donation....... and Epstein wire-transferred Clinton's foundation $3.5 MILLION from a Swiss bank account.
INCONVENIENT FACTOID FOR HILLARY Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein flew on Epstein’s private jet in 2002 to meet with the Sultan of Brunei.....one of the richest men in the world.
Hollywood hotshots recently protested the Sultan's ownership of the posh Beverly Hills Hotel and his embrace of Sharia law. The Sultan has announced he plans to execute homosexuals.
The National Enquirer reported flight logs reveal Epstein — before he was arrested and jailed for soliciting teenage masseuses — picked up Clinton at a Japanese naval airport. Also onboard “the orgy jet” — were two alleged ‘madames’ for Epstein’s kiddie sex ring.
The mega-rich Sultan later donated between $1-5 million to the Clinton Presidential Library in Arkansas.

Get worried if you start hearing about "this one weird trick" and Hillary's campaign.
Good article, but the logic in #1 is hard to follow. If the press doesn’t ask hard questions and the public doesn’t object to the softballs, then her campaign may be a “train wreck” for the country, but it would be a coronation for her.
The Gibsmedats outnumber those of us who can read this article, PERIOD!
If it’s Jebster vs Hillary!
What difference does it make?
You made me laugh, bro...
And per reports, a full cadre of partyin' Sec Serv agents
Nicely done!
They pic gave me a much needed laugh. Thanks!
Barry Obama used to use that trick with his magic bus. He’d fly from place to place and ride into town on his fancy black bus that we bought him.
“You know the van has a well stocked bar.”
You are just trying to get me to reconsider, JH.
And, I am with you on the sarcasm tag thing.
The way I see it is if I need to include a “/s”
thingy then somebody probably landed at the
wrong website.
Yep; certainly easier to get away with 'waving' into a faceless group of people at nobody in particular.
She makes me cringe just typing this.
Calling her presidential material//her turn/the Inevitable choice of the left, would "require the willing suspension of disbelief"....don'tchathink?
