Truth ‏

WTH is this? Benenson, founder & CEO of Benenson Strategy Group, led research & polling programs for Obama’s 2008 & 2012 campaigns & served as senior strategist for Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential bid.

"Netanyahu said “Joel Benenson, Gantz’s adviser, is behind the false leak about spying against the White House."

This is the story he's talking about:

Remember this story?

Truth

Holy fricking h@ll! The parent company of Benenson Strategy Group, LLC, is the UK company, Kantar Group, whose CEO, Eric Salama, was stabbed in the UK in January of this year.

Kantar Group is a subsidiary of WPP, a British multinational advertising and public relations company and the world's largest advertising corporation, moved it's headquarters to Ireland in September, 2008, claiming it was about taxes...

...The world's second biggest advertising and communications company, WPP, is to move its headquarters to Ireland in a bid to slash its tax bill.

The company wants to avoid the financial drubbing that it would have been subject to as a result of changes to British laws concerning taxation of foreign earnings, which would have caused a large hike in its tax bill as the company makes 90pc of its revenue outside of the UK.

WPP will potentially cut its tax bill in half with the move, as Ireland's 12.5pc tax rate on corporate earnings is less then half the British rate.

WPP CEO Martin Sorrell said the company stood to save up to stg£80m per year through the measure.

However, the move will only result in a small Irish presence, according to a company spokesman. "The presence here will be a very, very tiny part of the operation," said Richard Oldworth of WPP. "The only physical change will be that some board meetings will be held in Dublin.

"A handful of people, probably from the financial area of the business will be based there."

The company already has affiliations in Ireland through advertising and PR companies here, but no brand presence.

WPP is the latest in a handful of companies who have take this tax avoidance step by moving their tax home out of the UK.

Media company United Business Media Plc and drug company Shire Plc both made the move earlier this year, while the world's largest provider of serviced offices, Regus Group Plc, plans to move its headquarters to Luxembourg to save on tax.

The move is likely to take place this week, said a company source...RisinBurke..2008.
11/17/17, Democrat Senator Ron Wyden wrote letter to Homeland Security asking about IMSI catchers in DC. 3/26/18, DHS acknowledged finding them. Letter also noted same "anomalous activity" detected outside DC, but didn't specify where, or how many.

Sir Martin was CEO of WPP for 33 yrs, building it from a £1 million “shell” co in 1985. Prior to that, he was Group Financial Dir of Saatchi & Saatchi, & worked for Glendinning Associates before that. Graduated from Cambridge & has an MBA from Harvard.

Holy hell, he worked for Glendinning Associates!

Bridgewater Associates, the world’s biggest hedge fund, has it's headquarters complex in Glendinning and a 2nd office at Nyala Farms.

Remember who worked for Bridgewater before he "stepped up" and became FBI Director?

I cannot get this to open. Seems important, doesn't it?

NIKK...looks like I'm NOT THE ONLY one having problems posting this information.
