Podesta: Calling Chelsea ‘Not Smart’ Is An ‘Understatement’
dailycaller.com ^ | 11/4/2016 | Blake Neff

Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman John Podesta said it was a major understatement when an important Clinton Foundation figure described Chelsea Clinton as “not smart,” a newly-leaked email reveals.

The 2012 email is from the latest batch of leaked communications put out by the online hacktivist group Wikileaks. In the email, Podesta responds to Doug Band, a former Bill Clinton assistant who helped found the Clinton Global Initiative.

Band was irate because Chelsea had apparently launched an internal investigation of the Clinton Foundation’s finances, and then told one of former President George W. Bush’s twin daughters about it. The information had then made its way to a Republican operative. (RELATED: Chelsea Launched Internal Investigation Of Clinton Foundation)

“I have heard more and more chatter of [Chelsea] and bari talking about lots of what is going on internally to people,” Band complains in the exchange. “Not smart.”

Podesta’s response is brief but leaves his thoughts very clear.

“You are perfecting your skills for understatement,” he says.

Uh, they’re finger pointing at the russkies. Or martians. But saying “That’s not my email-—————”? Haven’t heard that yet.

As others have said, she was probably looking for Clinton
Foundation employees padding their own wallets which would not be unusual in a criminal organization with piles of cash and hidden bank transfers/accounts.

I think most of us got that but the header was too much to resist. Of course that could apply to all of them for putting all this in unsecured emails.:

If you don’t want anyone to see it or hear it, NEVER take the picture, write it down or tape record it.

I’m not seeing these comments meaning that. I see that someone said certain CHATTER was not smart.

I agree with you. Still, that doesn't let Web Hubbell's daughter off the hook for being a dope.

and blabs to one of the Bush daughters. I guess they all run in the same NY circles. Kind of ruins all this ole boy texas persona W pushed all those years. No wonder W is voting for clinton and not out supporting Trump, he is actually one of them.

Well the DNC hack revealed that Colon Powell was very buddy-buddy with the Democrats, and he is part of the Bush circle, so I’d say he is a prime suspect.

I actually feel a bit sorry for Chelsea because she was the only one who seemed concerned about the ethics going on with the Clinton Foundation.

Just as we have seen, her mom apparently can’t pass a bar.

Are you referring to her drinking problem?

She is no different from any other rich kid. There are a lot of others who have done a lot worse.

Well, if she has one. LOL! Where did the press find her last Sunday in Miami? In a bar talking to a crowd of about 15. Probably half of the ss agents.

Wonder if Webb gets to see his daughter and grand child much?


I doubt it since Hubbell’s been dead for several years.

Believe Webb is still alive, writing novels and living in North Carolina.

Chelsea has a doctorate from a Brit University. But then, Sheila Jackson Lee has a bachelor degree from Yale and doctor of law degree from University of Virginia. All well earned, I’m sure.

Chelsea not smart? Why she is a graduate of Stanford University!

Maybe they should close down the school...

Wow, he is still alive.

Please pardon my mistake. So many of the Clinton cabal from Arkansas are now dead. I thought he died years ago. Maybe I’m thinking of Jim Mcdougal.

A poster child for progressive education.
