One particular part caught my eye involving Huawei-—
At least one of the visas that Rodhams firm was trying to acquire was for Huawei Technologies, a Chinese telecommunications company sometimes accused of close connections with Chinese intelligence operations.
Life and career: 20022019
By 2002, Rodham was in disputes with his former wife over child support payments, with Nicole Boxer saying he had not paid them in six months.[18]
...
By the end of 2007, he was back in the news for owing Nicole Boxer about $158,000 in back alimony, child support, and related payments following a court judgement.[18] This earned him renewed unfavorable publicity, including the headline HILLS BROTHER A DEADBEAT in the New York Post.[26]
By the early 2010s, after a string of unsuccessful ventures in oil and gas, water, housing, pharmaceuticals, and tutoring, Rodham was in financial distress, behind on his mortgage payments and facing home foreclosure and being sued by his lawyer in the child support case for lack of payment.[9] He said in a legal proceeding that while the Clintons had helped him in the past, including paying for his sons school tuition, that was over: Hillary and Bill are done. I mean, look at what theyve done for me. Theyve given me money all the time.[9]
Nevertheless, Bill Clinton did help him get a job with longtime Clintons associate Terry McAuliffe to find foreign investors for McAuliffes GreenTech Automotive firm.[9][28]
Rodham did not play a large, hands-on role in this effort, however, and a trip to China that he made to recruit investors went sour due to Chinese resentment of various Clinton administration actions including the 1999 U.S. bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade.[28]
Rodham found himself in the news again in 2013 when it was disclosed that Alejandro Mayorkas, the director of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services and President Obamas nominee for United States Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security, was being investigated by the Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General for Mayorkas role in helping Gulf Coast Funds Management secure approval for participating in the EB-5 visa program for foreign investors.[29]
Rodham had been president and CEO of Gulf Coast Funds Management, a financing firm, since 2010 or so.[30] The firm had been granted the go-ahead even though the original application had been denied and an appeal had been rejected.[31] At least one of the visas that Rodhams firm was trying to acquire was for Huawei Technologies, a Chinese telecommunications company sometimes accused of close connections with Chinese intelligence operations.[29]
In 2015 the Inspector General issued a report that on the GreenTech Automotive matter that criticized Mayorkas for creating the appearance of favoritism[32] but passed no particular judgment on either Rodham or McAuliffe.[33] In 2015, an investment fund where Rodham was working as Chief Global EB5 Investor Relations & Government Affairs, the Global City Regional Center, was also using him to recruit EB-5 visa foreign investors in China for a community center project in Philadelphia Chinatown.[33]
Following the 2010 Haiti earthquake and with Bill Clinton co-chair of the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission, Rodham and some partners proposed a $22 million deal to rebuild homes in the devastated nation, with funding to come from the Clinton Foundation.[9]
The deal never went forward and the Clinton Foundation said it was unaware of the proposal.[9] In October 2013, Rodham joined the advisory board of VCS Mining, a Delaware-based company that was planning a gold mine in the Cap-Haïtien Arrondissement area of Haiti.[34]
By 2015 the project had become controversial due to possible environmental effects and the level of foreign ownership; for his part Rodham objected to any inference that he had gotten this position due to his family: Im a very accomplished person in my own right. I raise money for a lot of people. Thats what I basically do.[34] On February 19, 2016 he resigned as a board member from VCS Mining as part of a restructuring plan with no disagreement among the parties implied.[35]
...
The GreenTech Automotive matter reemerged in November 2017 when McAuliffe and Rodham were hit with a $17 million lawsuit from a group of thirty-two Chinese investors in it, charging fraud...
