HILLARY CLINTON’S ATTACK ON ‘HEDGE FUND MANAGERS’ INCLUDES HER SON-IN-LAW MARC MEZVINSKY

MATTHEW BOYLE15 Apr 2015Washington, DC254 What Republican National Committee chairman Reince Priebus calls former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s “fake and phony” populism apparently knows no bounds.

In Iowa this week — in her first event as a presidential candidate — Clinton hammered CEOs.

“There’s something wrong when CEOs make 300 times more than the typical worker. There’s something wrong when American workers keep getting more productive, as they have, and as I just saw a few minutes ago is very possible because of education and skills training, but that productivity is not matched in their paychecks,” Clinton said in Monticello, Iowa, at a roundtable at Kirkwood Community College.

She didn’t stop there, however. A moment later, she took that criticism of CEOs a step further to attack “hedge fund managers.” But she didn’t mention that her very own son-in-law is one of those hedge fund managers.

She really is everything that is wrong with politics in America today. And the press will let her get away with this BS. She will talk the populist game while taking money from Wall Street.

Is it just me or that the mention of “her son-in-law” really does cause at least a slight bit of nausea or revulsion. Forgive me, but that’s the first thing that popped into my head concerning this article.

The "dead broke" Clintons' real estate holdings (that we know of).

Bill and Hillary Clinton bought the $5.95 million mansion in Chappaqua, Westchester County, New York in 1999. The house was built in 1889, has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, and is 5,232 square feet. The house is now estimated to be worth $6.84 million.

The Clintons paid $2.85 million for this Washington DC house in the Observatory Circle neighborhood. The Georgian Colonial is 5,152 square feet, has four bedrooms and 7 bathrooms, and is a half mile away from the Vice Presidential residence at the Naval Observatory.

Chelsea and hubby Marc Mezvinsky's $10 million condo.

============================================

Chelsea's husband gained access to investors who had ties to the Clintons---
even as reports surfaced that Mezvinsky's hedge fund had "underwhelming" returns.

The WSJ reports extensively on the fund's underperformance since its inception. Also reported was Mezvinsky's mediocre investing and strategizing. Back in 2011, Mezvinsky, now 37, and two former Goldman Sachs colleagues — Bennett Grau and Mark Mallon — began raising money for Mezvinsky's Eaglevale Partners LP hedge fund. Some of Eaglevale's investors included Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein. Blankfein, a slavish Democrat supporter, said he had "always been a fan of Hillary Clinton."

==============================================

The Clinton/Goldman Sachs connection sounds awfully familiar. The-Pres Clinton's WH
aide Rahm Emanuel also worked as a Goldman Sachs lobbyist.....both at the same time.

HUMAN EVENTS BACKSTORY: A former employee of bankrupt MF Global accused former president Clinton----chairman of Teneo's advisory board----of collecting $50,000 per month through his Teneo advisory firm in the months before MFG careened towards its Halloween filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, as hundreds of millions of investor funds disappeared.

Teneo was hired by MF Global’s former CEO Jon S. Corzine (an ex-Goldman Sachser) to improve his image and to enhance his connections with Clinton’s political family, said the employee, who asked that his name be withheld because he feared retribution, according to HE.

The source, who is no longer associated with MF Global, said Teneo is a dual-track company with one side devoted to merchant and investment banking and the other side set up to provide image and strategy consulting services. The Teneo contract with MF Global lasted some five months, the source said. The board cancelled it after Corzine resigned.

The trustee for cheated MFG investors later sued JPMorgan bank for return of about $450M that MFG had wire- transferred out of its accounts to JPM's bank.

==================================================

An earlier NYT's expose tarred Bill Clinton w/ Teneo's sub rosa dealings. Teneo is run by Clinton aide---Doug Band. Prosecutors found Band and Clinton listed in pedophile's Jeffry Epsteiin's records as having a shocking 21 email addresses and tele nos.

Can you say money laundering? L/E recognizes multiple phone nos and email as the classic MO for money-laundering and tax evasion.

Hedge Fund managers DO get way too wealthy. I say that because most of the major liberal/socialist donors are former or current hedge fund managers. (Soros, Buffett, Tom Steyer)
