Disgraced Clinton Donor Got $13M In State Dept Grants Under Hillary
Daily Caller ^ | April 18, 2016 | Richard Pollock

Hillary Clinton’s Department of State awarded at least $13 million in grants, contracts and loans to her longtime friend and Clinton Foundation donor Muhammad Yunus, despite his being ousted in 2011 as managing director of the Bangladesh-based Grameen Bank amid charges of corruption, according to an investigation by The Daily Caller News Foundation.

The tax funds were given to Yunus through 18 separate U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) award transactions listed by the federal contracting site USAspending.gov.

They highlight how Clinton mixed official government business with Clinton Foundation donors. Yunus gave between $100,000 to $300,000 to the foundation, according to the Clinton Foundation website.

Groups allied to Yunus received an additional $11 million from USAID, according to the contracting website. Yunus had business relationships with all of them.

The first paragraph contains the word “despite” which I take to mean that the grants were given *after* he got kicked out. There’s your timing then.

“Foundation” “Initiative”...... both = money laudnering schemes ....

audit shows about 155 of both being spent on “charitable” ventures.... the rest.... well that’s overhead ... you know salaries and expenses for Huma, Cheryl, Chelsea, Hillary , Bill and “friends” and insiders....

aint charity wonderful...
dont mention the offshore branches and affiliates of the “foundation” and “global initiatives”....

trump will put her fat cellulite buttox in prison along with the rest of the cabal...
that is what they fear the most
and trump fears being vince fostered....

If so a few dates wouldn’t have hurt the article and would have cemented the story. You may well be right but in this new age of ‘journalism’ facts are sometimes causalities to the reporters goals.

“USAID is completely corrupt”

In Vietnam, USAID changed it name 7 times to try to keep their scams unknown to the auditors.

That’s more times than the Agency changed the name of Air America / Southern Air Transport!
