Wash Post Misses Clinton’s Biggest Donor Again- Canadian Uranium Tsar
Once again the Washington Post seems to have missed the “vette” while reporting on vetting the Clintons. The Post’s coverage today on vetting donors to Clinton’s Library Foundation is not unlike the Post Sunday Magazine 8,000 word cover story, in October, 2005, “House of Cards” by April Witt which un-reported on the Galagate scandal surrounding Peter Paul’s illegally solicited and unreported $1.2 million plus contribution to Hillary’s Senate campaign is now matched by its story today vetting Bill Clinton’s Foundation donors.
In both stories the Post managed to miss reporting on the substantive issues surrounding the largest donors to the Clinton political and charitable “causes”. Most compelling is the pattern of Clintonian conduct in denying that their largest donors made any contribution whatsoever.
Clinton initially denied that Frank Giustra became his largest donor, of more than $31 million, after a lucrative trade trip Clinton took with the Canadian financier that interfered with US policy and business interests in Kazahkstan. Then after intense media pressure, Clinton admitted that Giustra gave the donation through his personal foundation.
Similarly, the Clintons have denied that Peter Paul became hillary’s largest 2000 Senate campaign donor after Billand Hillary illegally solicited and then failed to report more than $1.2 million Paul personally expended at Hillary’s direction. Because there waas no media scrutiny forcing Hillary to admit whta a federal prosecutor and FBI agent testified to, Hillary has been able to continue to file false FEC reports that hide Paul’s identity from the FEC.
The Post’s story Saudis, Indians Among Clinton Foundation Donors today reports on the largest 2 donors to Bill Clinton’s Foundation (below) without any reference whatsoever to the $31 million donated by Giustra and the $100+ million pledged by him to the Foundation!
The biggest donations _ more than $25 million each _ came from two donors. They are the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation, a London-based philanthropic organization founded by hedge fund manager Chris Hohn and his wife Jamie Cooper-Hohn and dedicated to helping children, primarily in Africa and India; and UNITAID, an international drug purchase organization formed by Brazil, France, Chile, Norway and Britain to help provide care for HIV-AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis patients in countries with high disease rates.
