Memo Reveals Clinton Foundation Donor’s $100 Million Registration, Turnout Push
Washington Free Beacon ^ | June 22,2016 | BY: Lachlan Markay

A Swiss billionaire and seven-figure Clinton Foundation donor is pouring millions of dollars into a nonprofit voter registration and turnout operation and appears to have shared information about the project with the Democratic Party, a leaked document reveals.

Hansjörg Wyss is accelerating a $100 million registration and get-out-the-vote plan in order to more quickly impact elections and the U.S. policy landscape, according to a document detailing the proposed work by his charitable group, the Wyss Foundation.

The document details the scope of Democratic efforts to boost grassroots organizing, and sheds light on how some of the left’s deepest pockets are facilitating those efforts through nonprofit vehicles generally restricted to charitable activity.

Wyss is a controversial figure. He is currently being sued in Washington state court over allegations that illegal drug tests by his former medical device company resulted in patient deaths.

According to the memo, the Wyss Foundation initially planned to spend $100 million over the next five years on voter registration, outreach, organizing, and legal and policy advocacy on voting laws. But that won’t be enough, the group said.

The document, titled “Wyss Foundation Democracy Strategy Discussion Memo,” was saved in a Microsoft Word file suggesting it was created in March 2015.

All these Clinton and related charities are nothing more than money laundering schemes. Since foreigners can’t buy votes and politicians they give it to someone who can. I wonder how much this Wyss guy stood to make in a Hillary administration?

Do we not have laws in this country about foreign money in domestic elections or am I just misremembering?

I guess it doesn’t matter since laws don’t apply to Hitlery, Obozo or any other Dem anyway.

This is a direct violation of the Tax free status granted to a 501C3. That status should be revoke retro actively and the income fully taxed with penalty and interest.

Most all of the Clinton’s money has come from overseas...

Most all of Trump’s money has come from hard work, building things and creating jobs....

What does this tell you????

Trump should investigate this, and if true, spread it far and wide. We have to stop the Clintons and their globalist cut throats from stealing this election.

“We believe these efforts will alter the electorate, but they will not do it in time to fully achieve the Wyss policy agenda within the next ten years,” the memo stated.

An enemy of the citizens of the United States. He deserves what he gets, so long as it is bad.

This is the tip of the iceberg we are up against. Rather overwhelming.

No, you are correct, it’s just that the mechanism of having these “foundations” as funnels and channels for large-scale money laundering are not so regulated. They’re not regulated by much of anything. That’s precisely why, in the Clinton’s case, they were established and why they have acquired such jaw-dropping amounts of money.

Aren’t donations for Presidential elections from foreign non-resident donors, well, sort of ILLEGAL?

Maybe this guy has a green card, that would make everything OK.

Now why would a Swiss billionaire care about the civic responsibilities of American citizens?

Things that should make you go “hmmmmm....”
