The previously untold saga of Braverman’s brief, and occasionally fraught tenure trying to navigate the Clintons’ insular world highlights the challenges the family has faced trying to impose rigorous oversight onto a vast global foundation that relies on some of the same loyal megadonors Hillary Clinton will need for the presidential run sources have said she is all but certain to launch later this year.
The hiring a few months later of Braverman was to address recommendations from a 2011 audit for tighter governance and budgeting, as well as more comprehensive policies to vet donors and avoid conflicts of interest.
When Braverman arrived to replace Lindsey as CEO, he moved quickly to adopt the auditor’s recommendations, and then some.
He diversified the foundation’s board beyond the Clintons and their longtime political allies and restructured its finance department. He oversaw the creation of a $250 million endowment and implemented data-driven analytics to measure the effectiveness of foundation programs.
No public explanation was offered for Braverman’s resignation.
Never thought I would say this, but it appears that Chelsea Clinton may be the voice of reason at the Clinton Foundation. The old guard calls her a spoiled brat, but so far the leaked emails all make her seem like someone who was trying to reign in the silliness.
Doesn’t mean she’s a hero or anything, but it’s amazing that the rest of them are so bad that it makes her look good.
I know that this is an old article and that there is an email going around about Eric defecting to Russia (possible hoax), but this old article shows that possibly there is someone still living that know what was going on inside the slush fund.
He was involved in the Haiti scam -

Who is the person who was threatenign to commit suicide because of what chelsea was doing?
It sounded like SUCH A CONTROVED story, and a prelude to another ‘arkancide’.
They could find him dead later with two gunshots to the back of the head and say “see? he wrote a suicide email before”
Kind of weird that there be two different prominent Eric Bravermans in New York City, since it doesn't appear to be a common name.
Chelsea Clinton knows all about the corruption as she lives in a $10 million dollar apartment. She ain’t discouraging it at all.
Anyone heard from Eric Braverman?
