Critics begin hard look at Clinton Foundation donations (tool for Clinton wealth and power)
Bay Area Examiner ^ | 6/27/15 | Dwight L. Schwab Jr.

Posted on 06/28/2015 6:15:09 AM PDT by Liz

The Clinton Foundation is billed as a philanthropic organization that mobilizes wealthy power brokers w/ a mission to solve global problems. It's raised an incredible $2 billion for an eclectic range of programs...fighting elephant poaching, improving schools, and raising AIDS awareness in Latin and African countries. The Foundation is under intense criticism...the watchdog Sunlight Foundation charges donations from individuals, corporations, and foreign governments, are conflicts of interest b/c these entities give Bill Clinton exorbitant speaking fees......that millions in honoraria lead to Hillary's State Dept approving contracts and treaty agreements.

The Clinton Foundation's lengthy list of foreign donors is where most of the criticism is coming from. How does Bill Clinton command $750,000 one-hour speeches from countries and corporations under State Dept scrutiny long after he has left the public stage? Under an ethics agreement made with the Obama admin to get the State Dept job, cash flow was permitted w/ proper reporting.....a $500,000 donation from Algeria went undisclosed. Shortly thereafter, the Algerians won a 70 percent boost in military export authorizations for items including chemical and biological agents. Algeria is considered to be a ‘terrorist country’ by the US State Department......will threats to US national security prompt editors from coast to coast to launch full investigations of the Clinton Foundation?

They mean the ISSA “hard look”? Or the IRS “hard look”? I’m confused.

This is a no brainer. The entire foundation is a scam and here is no evidence to show otherwise. Until the powers that be look into this, nothing will happen. GOP should be spending all their time and resources to bring this light. The fact that it is being ignored shows all politicians are ïn on it”.

Maybe local law enforcement should take a hard look at the crime of bank robbery. I am sure the criminals would be relieved.

It appears the Clintons set up “Dummy” accounts in Sweden and Canada. Those who donate to the Clintons for favors do not get reported to the US government. It is all a scam. Only 10% of money donated goes to any charity.

The IRS looks the other way..... Obama perpetually smiles....Democrats look on w/ approval.

CONCLUSION Obama's protecting the Clintons---b/c they're his meal ticket. The Clintons deposit Obama's cut into his foundations. All of them are living happily ever after--getting rich on "tolerance and compassion."

LAUGH BREAK Obama's latest weekly remarks: " As President, I spend most of my time focused on what we can do to grow the economy and grow new pathways of opportunity for Americans like you to get ahead. And we’ve made progress. More than 12 million new private sector jobs in the past five years. More than 16 million Americans who’ve gained health insurance. More jobs creating more clean energy. More kids graduating from high school and college than ever before. " (Excerpt) Read more at news.investors.com ...

(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

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

All of Obama's mouthings have to be gauged againt the back-drop of his plans as an ex-president.....he and Mrs O rev up for the big foundation payday ala the Clintons. NOTE WELL: Obama is not even out of office ....but he already has two foundations (two that we know of).

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

AND THIS: It's next to impossible to believe:

<><>Obama was oblivious to the Clintons jerking around US foreign policy.

<><> Obama knew nothing of Sid Blumenthal's emails (a man he banned from US govt employment).

<><> Obama knew nothing about the Clintons' Foundation/slush fund buck-raking activities.

<><> Congressional Democrats never got wind of it?

WONDER OF WONDERS Obama never noticed Bill Clinton trotting around the globe .... un-appointed and unasked. Clinton using "charity" to worm his way into the confidences of foreign leaders....but only those leaders who happened to have untapped reserves of gold, uranium, oil, and other valuable commodities.

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

BACKSTORY Hillary was hand-picked by Obama to run State. She ran it like a shadow govt....w/ her husband taking notes WRT buck-raking opportunities available from Hillary's actions OR inaction.

Obama never noticed that Secy Hillary never e-v-e-r uttered a discouraging word e-v-e-r......as the Clinton Foundation sucked up hundred of millions of foreign dollars from shady characters.

The avaricious Clintons devised hundreds of obscure programs to collect billions.....bragging about do-goodism, how the money was supposedly dispersed to "assist" endless charitable projects.

You and I know this is true.

However, if a tree falls in the woods and no one is there, does it make a sound? If the media does not relentlessly and repetitiously report it, it did not happen. They aren't and won't.

True enough....but there's more than one way to skin the cunning Clintons: ....WND reported on a six-month investigation: indicated the Clintons diverted tens millions of dollars that they solicited for charitable purposes to the personal enrichment of themselves and their close associates.......

THIS IS MAIL FRAUD Raising money for a specific cause that was diverted elsewhere is considered mail fraud.

If the FBI, DOJ and IRS won't shape up to nab the conniving Clintons---there's always the US Postal Inspector....many crooks have been locked for using similar scams.

REFERENCE: WND | June 21, 2015 | Jerome Corsi / FR Posted by Randall_S

NEW YORK – 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.

Ortel says, RWC 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.

We have become a lawless nation.

Any thinking person knows how corrupt this “Clinton Foundation” must be. It is so obvious that no one can deny it with a straight face but nothing is going to happen to them because of it.

Laws are for you little people.

Lawlessness begets lawlessness.

Thanks Liz. Critics started this a long while ago, so obviously this isn't about critics. "We've now done an in-depth investigation, and have found there's nothing wrong. Case closed. Everyone else in the media can now fall into line."

WTF?

ARE YOU saying Mrs Clinton didn't give amazingly scintillating speeches that were well worth $500,000 for 45 minutes?

Did you know people would leave the room crying after Hillary spoke?

Or that God Himself would appear in the room and kneel before Mrs. Clinton's Majesty?

It's rumored Jesus wept....

Lives were changed ... countries healed. Families united... all with Mrs. Clinton's words.

Yes, Hillary charged over $11,000 per minute for 'talk'... but it was pure gold. How dare you imply the Foundation's a scam... She is God....

New York Post getting it.

Several ways to ‘live the good life’ while looking middle class... One favorite way: establish nonprofits that pay for lavish vacations... tax free and on someone else’s dime. Bonus retirement scam too: free trips for as long as the Clintons live, their child lives, and grand-kids live. ALL tax free...

What lowlifes.

(Did you hear Hillary's NOT paying most of the people who work for her? Cheap scape.

*********************************************************

“The web of foundations run by the former president spent an eye-opening $12.1 million on travel in 2011 alone, according to an internal audit conducted by foundation accountants. That’s enough to by 12,000 air tickets costing $1,000 each, or 33 air tickets each day of the year.”
