We have written frequently about the internal Clinton Foundation power struggle between Chelsea Clinton and Doug Band over the previous couple of weeks (see here, here and here). It all started back in 2011 when, as Chelsea started to take a more senior role at the Clinton Foundation, she became increasingly concerned about an internal audit that exposed glaring conflicts of interest throughout the Foundation with an emphasis on Doug Band and his company, Teneo, who she thought had inappropriately sought favors from the State Department during Hillary's tenure as Secretary of State. A Politico article from March 2015, summarized Chelsea's rise at the Foundation and how it threatened some long-time Clinton allies who had grown quite accustomed to the status quo.
But Chelsea Clinton’s rise at times has seemed to threaten some veteran Clinton aides who had carved out influential—and lucrative—positions after long service with her parents. She is blamed in some quarters for marginalizing both Lindsey and Doug Band, who rose from the president’s body man to build and help run the foundation’s Clinton Global Initiative. A third Clinton veteran, Ira Magaziner, saw his portfolio at the foundation diminished during Braverman’s tenure, and sources say Magaziner’s role remains under scrutiny.
Now, new WikiLeaks emails reveal additional details behind the the man, Eric Braverman, who was brought in as CEO by Chelsea to change the controversial practices of the Foundation but abruptly resigned a short time later after being pushed out by long-time Clinton loyalists who had apparently grown very comfortable with the status quo.
If a Republican did any of the long list of clinton crimes, they would be in prison. hillary for prison!!!

Wait guys. THis article paints Chelsea as a reformer, who recognized the good works and potential of the Clinton Foundation, and was trying to ferret out any hint of impropriety (/S). It’s part of HER rehabilitation campaign, which will go on for years, until she tests the electoral waters.
The American people just don't care.

If I had a nickel for every time I’ve read that...
Teneo. Isn’t that where Bratton went?
Chelsea wasn’t trying to stop fraud. She thought people like Doug Band were ripping off the family by taking too big a cut of the families ill-gotten gains. Hillary and Bill were required “leadership.”
The Clinton Foundation is a complex and valuable operation.
They MUST have a contingency plan in case Hillary loses.
So they trundle out all this BS about Chelsea being the shining reformer.
UTTERLY PREDICTABLE.
We gotta get her on something illegal, too, get a felony on her so she can never run for ANYTHING.
They will shut down and burn all the files.
Eric Braverman. Is he the son of the Dr. Eric Braverman, the wonder-worker in NYC?
Bkmk
Hummm inappropriate favors from the SD during Hill's tenure? Well, isn't it convenient that they can hang that on ole Doug. Doug better watch his back.
Yup. At its heart, nothing but a puff-piece for Chelsea, with an insinuation that she was saving her noble parents from the bad people. What a crock.
Nah..!
They’ll toss it all to Huma before they do that.
“Huma is in a sense my OTHER daughter...” Hillary said so.
I’m sure Chelsea was tickled about that, huh.
Sounds to me like she was a brat princess who thought she knew more than seasoned folks.
And didn’t we recently hear that she was skimming some money of her own to fund her private projects?
She probably is a brat princess, but they don’t want her too splashed with Bill and Hillary’s dirt going forward. They want her to stand on her own princess feet in her own ruby slippers.
