Whoops! Nobody verified Clinton Foundation a legal charity
wnd ^ | june 21, 2015 | Jerome r. corsi

Posted on 06/22/2015 12:19:18 PM PDT by lowbridge

Along with filing financial reports filled with errors and misstatements, “Big Four” accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers neglected to verify whether the Clinton Foundation obtained tax-exempt status for its various sub-entities, including its AIDS charity, contends respected Wall Street analyst Charles Ortel.

As WND has reported, Ortel’s six-month investigation indicates the Clintons have diverted tens millions of dollars donated for charitable purposes to the personal enrichment of themselves and their close associates.

He says PWC neglected to exercise due diligence in fulfilling its professional responsibilities in conducting even the most basic inquiries required of an honest audit.

PWC, he says, failed to inquire whether the Clinton Foundation has applied for and received duly issued IRS tax-exempt determinations for its various sub-entities and activities, including fighting HIV/AIDS globally under the auspices of the Clinton Health Access Initiative Inc., also known as CHAI.

He notes that there as an “Old CHAI” and a “New CHAI” that was created after Hillary Clinton became secretary of state. In addition, the foundation launched the Clinton Global Initiative and numerous foreign funds and endowments created, for instance, in conjunction with George W. Bush to raise money for the victims of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and the 2010 earthquake in Haiti.

In his draft report, Ortel says PWC’s “work product concerning the Clinton Foundation in 2013 is riddled with errors.”

Bill Clinton has already started the dementia rumor.

If this ever goes to court or heats up, wanna bet that he doesn’t remember anything?

Whoops! Nobody verified Clinton Foundation a legal charity

If this occurred to anybody except the Clintons, it would be devastating. But since they are who they are (and what they are) - somebody at the IRS will prepare 'and backdate' whatever documentation is needed. - No matter how fraudulent it appears, it will receive the same level of scrutiny as Obama’s birth certificate.

Thanks Gen.Blather, and hoosiermama.

Does this mean that all those who donated to this “charity” and claimed a tax deduction must now pay taxes and penalties on the monies they donated, if they claimed tax exemptions for their donations?

“PWC is going to be on death watch after this.”

Let them follow Arthur Anderson into closure. Then we will have only a “Big Three.” Who’s going to be next?

This individual is literally above the law. What she would be like with Executive Privilege under her hands and with an army of sycophantic media celebrities at her back is truly terrifying.

In more than one news report.....the Clintons defend their foundation’s work by saying that its focus has always been on "charity."

“We and our supporters care only about impact, not ideology,” Bill Clinton said in a written statement. “We are an entirely non-political foundation.”

However, the foundation teems w/ key members of Hillary’s political gofers and has been disparagingly referred to as "Hillary's 2016 Super-Pac."

The Foundation appears to use the charity and its enormous resources as a revolving door to shuffle Clintons political factotums from manning political operations.....into the charity......then back into politics.

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

In 2009, the Clintons duped the public, and its wealthy donors (and contravened tax-exempt laws) by announcing Sidney Blumenthal, a long-time adviser to both Clintons, had been hired...... (wait for it) "to work on a project to promote Bill Clinton’s presidential legacy. "

(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

But Sid's secret emails show that, while on the foundation payroll, ostensibly promoting Bill's legacy, Blumenthal fed back-channel, usually unreliable, intelligence reports on Libya to then-Secretary of State Clinton.

Hillary sent Sid's reports on to senior State official without attribution......as if they were her analyses.

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

The NYT reports extensively on Blumenthal's secret emails to Hillary (emails she did not want revealed):

<><> the Clintons announced Blumenthal was hired by the Clinton Foundation to "promote Bill's presidential legacy",

<><> at the same time Blumenthal was tight w/ American Bridge and Media Matters — two Democratic groups aiding 2016 Clinton's effort,

<><> Blumenthal was also a paid advisor to businesses seeking Libyan contracts (compromising US ntl interests, by marketing his influence at the State Dept);

<><> Blumenthal was secretly advising Secy of State Clinton about Libya @ $320,000 per year;

<><> he also pocketed $200,000 a year from Clinton ally David Brock's media operations.

If the FBI, DOJ and IRS won't shape up---there's always the US Postal Inspector.

NEWS REPORTS SAY---Pricewaterhouse Coopers accountants retained by the Clintons failed to report the Clinton Foundation’s apparent massive diversions of funds from a HIV/AIDS global charity.

THIS IS MAIL FRAUD Raising money for a specific cause that was diverted elsewhere is considered mail fraud. The Postal Inspector has locked up many crooks for using similar scams.

At first glance, the Clinton’s lucrative speeches and ungodly Foundation donations seem to provide the bulk of the couple’s income.

Bill's honoraria increased dramatically---earning some $50 million during Hillary's four-year term as secretary of State....including an Irish scholarship fund, a Korean conglomerate, and, a Nigerian newspaper company......each of whom paid Clinton more than half a million dollars for a single speech.

The Wash/Post reports Hillary earned $11.7 million for 51 speeches since Jan 2014.....she pocketed an astonishing $625,000 for two speeches in one day!

I firmly believe the Clinton Foundation's gigantic donor list, and their astonishing blizzard of speaking honoraria, are a smoke screen for their secret wealth----and the way they make billions sub rosa---intertwining their vaunted "charity" work and public office.

The calculated Clintons have sought to branch out into other business activities......though little is known about the exact nature and financial worth of Bill and Hillary’s non-speech business interests.

Recent reports indicate the Clintons were party to multi-billion dollar Mideast arms deals....Kazakhstan uranium mines....and Haitian gold mines...oil deal....telecom businesses, etc etc etc.

THE CON ARTIST CLINTONS GRABBED EVERYTHNG THAT WASNT NAILED DOWN---Lucrative business interests were cunningly intertwined w/ the Foundation's "do-good" activities....enabled by Hillary's catbird seat at the State Dept.

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

TAXPAYERS DEMAND LAWS BANNING FOUNDATION THAT SELL OUT AMERICAN INTERESTS---Obama's still in office and has two Foundations (that we know of)---ready to cash-in like the Clintons.

NOTE The do-gooder Clintons calculatedly morphed into

"Smile everybody. Another $100 million came in today."

IF the Clinton ‘foundation’ isn’t tax-exempt it means all those people who ‘made donations’ have to RE-DO their taxes...

AND THIS---Tax exemptions to charities require proof:

(1) Can donors show "gift receipts?

(2) Can the Clinton Foundation show lists of donors they sent "gift receipts" to?

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

JUST A CLERICAL ERROR? Several state and federal agencies the Clintons listed as donors told news outlets they did not contribute to the Clinton Foundation.

<><> EPA said there's no record of donations to the Clinton Foundation.

<><> The “Office of Minority Health and Human Services,” is listed but it's not clear what this donation referred to, or even which federal or state office it came from.

<><> The Arkansas Dept of Human Services received a donor "gift receipt" but said they never expended tax dollars to the Foundation.

There ‘s absolutely no way this ‘error’ was a mistake.

Another point - - if the Clinton’s hadn’t been caught - in a few years they could claim the foundation money was theirs because it was given to THEM - NOT to a nonprofit.
