Bill Clinton Bagged $16.46 Million from For-Profit College as State Dept. Funneled $55 Million Back
Breitbart ^ | June 3, 2016 | Stephen Bannon

Posted on 06/05/2016 9:12:16 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

With her campaign sinking in the polls, Hillary Clinton has launched a desperate attack against Trump University to deflect attention away from her deep involvement with a controversial for-profit college that made the Clintons millions, even as the school faced serious legal scrutiny and criminal investigations.

In April 2015, Bill Clinton was forced to abruptly resign from his lucrative perch as honorary chancellor of Laureate Education, a for-profit college company. The reason for Clinton’s immediate departure: Clinton Cash revealed, and Bloomberg confirmed, that Laureate funneled Bill Clinton $16.46 million over five years while Hillary Clinton’s State Dept. pumped at least $55 million to a group run by Laureate’s founder and chairman, Douglas Becker, a man with strong ties to the Clinton Global Initiative. Laureate has donated between $1 million and $5 million (donations are reported in ranges, not exact amounts) to the Clinton Foundation. Progressive billionaire George Soros is also a Laureate financial backer.

As the Washington Post reports, “Laureate has stirred controversy throughout Latin America, where it derives two-thirds of its revenue.” During Bill Clinton’s tenure as Laureate’s chancellor, the school spent over $200 million a year on aggressive telemarketing, flashy Internet banner ads, and billboards designed to lure often unprepared students from impoverished countries to enroll in its for-profit classes. The goal: get as many students, regardless of skill level, signed up and paying tuition.

But.... but.... Trump University! Yeah, that’s the same thing as funneling money from the US State Department into your private accounts. Sure. Nothing to see here.

The article doesn't say anything about the amount of money funneled since Hillary left the State Department.

How much money went to Laureate in 2013, 2014, and 2015?

Is Kerry in on this grab or is it just a Clinton thing?

The #1 tactic in a Clinton maneuver is to accuse the accusers. This inoculates you from any scrutiny in which you are guilty of yourself. The Clintons have made this a life long attack plan. Old and obvious by now but they just can’t learn new tricks.

Go directly to the gallows, do not pass Go, do not collect millions and millions of dollars.

Fine them heavily then pull the lever.

That scam is repeated over and over again:

An obscure Baptist Church in Cameroon, Africa gave the Clinton Foundation $10 million.

Where does a Baptist church in Africa get $10 million to give to the Clintons? And why?

Then we learn that Cameroon is the recipient of hundreds of millions of grants from the State Dept....earmarked for every social ill imaginable.

Easy to see-—State Dept monies (our tax dollars) were laundered into the church then back into the Clinton Foundation coffers.

And don’t forget, Hillary’s aide and lawyer-—Cheryl (”I don’t remember”) Mills-—is buying up and developing land and businesses in Sub-Sahara Africa (includes Cameroon).

Mills found time to develop properties in far-off Africa while working in the State Dept?

Long ago in a time far, far away, there was a little blonde Rockefeller Republican minder named Hillary Rodham who signed up to be the minder for an up and coming Rockefeller bastard son, named William Jefferson Blythe Clinton, who had a taste for raping women.

The Clinton’s were an amazing duo of James Bond and Q. Bill raped the women and Hillary managed all the toys. One of the favorite toys or attractions for the Clintons was money. Hillary Hamrod just had a thing for money to fill up that big empty void inside of her which seems to be stuffed full of lesbian Huma now.

Anyway, there was Rose Law, which was according to Sherman Skolnik, since assassinated to protect the Obama secrets, was nothing but a CIA front for money laundering and tracking on the pirated PROMIS software, in the form of Chelsea’s dad, Webb Hubble, Hillary’s man pal, Vince Foster and Dame Hamrod.

Siphoning money was what the Clinton’s learned and in exchange for keeping Saddam Hussein in power in Iraq....having murdered all the Iraqi CIA assets set to pull of a coup, Bill Clinton set up Oil for Palaces, and every leftist in the West got a cut.
We know the Clinton’s cut was 60 million from Marc Rich, who Eric Holder got the Clinton’s to pardon, due to the fact that is the amount Bill Clinton paid himself in speaking engagements overseas, to launder this money back to themselves.

Anyway, Bill got like 10 million for selling some Stan uranium for the Canadians to China, and was penalized for this by the cartel, in having 2008 taken from Hillary. There have been loads of money dumps to the Clintons, which the Clinton Foundation has been the cover for.

That is what is just interesting to me is because LaVoy Finicum was murdered by the Obama Clinton police state over Russian ownership of Uranium in Oregon, and Bill Gates Thorium worth over 50 trillion dollars, and no one really gave a damn about that, because the reality is all of those conglomerates feed the Breitbart, Washington Post, Glenn Beck, Cockerboy Limbaugh and Mark Levin, FOX world.

The reason this matters is I am sure most of you have read of the latest uncovered money laundering scheme of the Clintons. It is just amusing as all things Clinton are. I simply do not understand why they just do not have Hillary sign checks from the US Treasury for millions of dollars, made out to Bill Clinton, as their schemes are just that brazenly obvious.

Here is the story:

In April 2015, Bill Clinton was forced to abruptly resign from his lucrative perch as honorary chancellor of Laureate Education, a for-profit college company. The reason for Clinton’s immediate departure: Clinton Cash revealed, and Bloomberg confirmed, that Laureate funneled Bill Clinton $16.46 million over five years while Hillary Clinton’s State Dept. pumped at least $55 million to a group run by Laureate’s founder and chairman, Douglas Becker, a man with strong ties to the Clinton Global Initiative. Laureate has donated between $1 million and $5 million (donations are reported in ranges, not exact amounts) to the Clinton Foundation.

So Bill sets himself up as Clinton Laurette of Money Laundering and Hillary writes the checks out and basically 1 out of 3 dollars goes into Bill’s pocket. I honestly think the Clinton’s should be commended for restraint as a 33% cut is quite gentlemanly. Numbers of charities take PETA take and Humane Society take something like 90% coming in, so the Clinton’s are really top notch in this.
What is just odd is, the Clinton’s never spend their own money on campaigns, and Bill has 80 million and Hillary has 45 million.......so figure it is three times that much stashed away in the Clintons have close to half a billion dollars someplace. So why be like Martha Stewart in being caught picking up the change when you got the kind of big dollars the Clinton crime fund has.

It all goes back to that Doc Holiday line in Tombstone about Johnny Ringo. Ringo was a criminal who could not kill enough, steal enough or do anything enough, to make up for the big empty inside of them.

Seriously, look at Bill Clinton. He was born a bastard, schemed from the gutters to be Governor of Arkansas, nailed more women that Solomon, was President of America, and Hillary Clinton was right there and made Senator too.......and Secretary of State. Any one of those things would be a pretty good resume, but that is not enough for the Clinton’s, as they keep compulsively getting involved with powerful people who murder people like LaVoy Finicum in public or Hillary can not keep her emails private as she has her hands in the State Department till.

It does have the appearance of people who just want to be caught and prosecuted for being frauds, so they could just have some peace which only an 8 by 10 cell with an orange suit and lots of sodomite sex can provide in catharsis.

Let us have this quote:

During Bill Clinton’s tenure as Laureate’s chancellor, the school spent over $200 million a year on aggressive telemarketing, flashy Internet banner ads, and billboards designed to lure often unprepared students from impoverished countries to enroll in its for-profit classes. The goal: get as many students, regardless of skill level, signed up and paying tuition.

New York runs a like operation as this out of Haiti in foreign kids on tuition in making a fortune. I ask you to recall though something called microfinance in Stanley Ann Dunham, as you note there was a massive push to hook poor people on loans, and here we have again a Mark Zuckerberg type format of “free internet” to billions in the 3rd world for profit.......all exact blueprint exploitation, and the one unnamed conspirator in this is Barack Hussein Obama Chin.

Hillary Clinton could not be funneling money to Bill Clinton without direct operational coordination from Val-erie Jarrett, Michelle Obama and Barack Hussein Obama. This is right out of their Chicago manifesto with Bill Ayers in seizing control of educational funds.
The story in this is, the Clintons are not that bright to figure this out, or covered enough to funnel this money..........unless of course they spotted Barack and Michelle Obama running this money laundering in other areas, like in Stimulus funding, and it is a given if you search through the financials, this is exactly how the Obama’s have been money dumping.........just like money dumps to Christian, Jewish and Catholic charities to bring in those hordes of Muslim terrorists, all funded by ISIS money dumps to the DNC and the RNC.

That is the story in this. The Clintons were picking up the scraps as usual, because they were trying to keep up, and this was one of their schemes. This is why the puppy press has been told to keep their hands off this story, because if you follow it, it is going to expose what this Obama regime has been laundering money in trillions since 2009. Yes trillions as Obama was dumped a trillion to the 3rd world, another trillion to European banking, so the accounting is about the Clinton pennies to the Obama piles of cash.

Hillary Clinton really needs to stop trying to make Donald Trump an issue, with her scheme with the Mexican judge out there going after Trump University as there is coordination taking place. Because this has now exposed the really powerful people who are more than willing to send Mrs. Clinton to a grey bar hotel to punish her again and to cover up the trillion dollar crimes.

Clinton Foundation Donor to Pay $95.5 Million Settlement to Justice Department
(out of a total $11 billion tax dollars The Education Management Corporation received)

Free Beacon | 11/16/15 | Brent Scher / FR Posted / by Libloather

A for-profit educational corporation that has donated to the Clinton Foundation agreed to pay $95.5 million to the Obama administration as a settlement for a government lawsuit alleging that it was using illegal tactics to lure in prospective students.

The Education Management Corporation was sued by the Department of Justice in 2011 for multiple recruitment violations, including paying its recruiters based on the number of students it enrolled, and exaggerating the career opportunities that were available to graduates. The lawsuit argued that the violations made the corporation ineligible for the $11 billion in state and federal financial aid it has received since 2003.

On top of the $95.5 million settlement, the group also agreed to forgive more than $100 million in loans it made to former students, according to the Associated Press. (Excerpt) Read more at freebeacon.com ...

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

MORE CLINTON DIRT--Laureate Education is a for-profit education firm; ex-Pres Clinton is a paid honorary chancellor.

This organization has some unusual practices.

For instance, its students serve as telemarketers who pitch the school to prospective new students. It operates in at least three countries (Turkey, Mexico and Chile) where for-profit universities are illegal, author Schweizer notes.

Douglas Becker (a FOB), runs the for-profit university, which engages Bill Clinton to give speeches several times a year. Based on Clintons gargantuan fee scale, that works out to Pres Bill getting perhaps $1 million a year from Laureate, Clinton Cash author Schweizer estimates.

(NOTE On falsified disclosure forms, Pres Bill revealed only that he has been paid more than $1,000 by Laureate.)

Becker also runs a related nonprofit, International Youth Foundation, which coincidentally found its federal grant money has exploded (according to author Schweizer) since Hillary became secretary of state (in 2009) and Bill became honorary chancellor of Becker/s profit-seeking company.

Many of International Youth Foundation grants came from tax dollars---from a State Dept agency---USAID.

Then SoS Hillary took official control of USAID, a move that dramatically reduced its independence, Clinton Cash author Schweizer says.

Hillary, as we know, is a master of the art of projection — attributing her own misdeeds to her opponents. This week she used a suit against Trump University by Attorney General Eric Schneiderman as a talking point. But there’s a far bigger scandal he’s ignoring — CGI University, “a shady joint venture of Laureate and the Clinton Global Initiative”.

The Laureate Education went private in August 2007, in a multi billion dollar, risky, hugely leveraged transaction, closed in the last gasp of the bubble. The leveraged buyout was completed around August 2007 for approximately $3 billion in debt plus equity. The driving force behind the deal is of Friend of Bill (FOB) hedge fund king Steven Cohen, a poster child for bad hedge fund behavior.

[snip]

After the deal closed, the schools had great financial difficulties and these capital suppliers grew concerned. Bill Clinton’s pals were feeling squeezed as a profitable exit seemed less and less likely.

To dress the deal up in 2010, Bill Clinton was brought in to serve as “Chancellor,” a part-time position for which he was collecting $16 million through early 2015. This extraordinary compensation was never properly disclosed until 2015. Many of those on the hook paid Bill and Hillary big fees for speeches as well. Bill Clinton was thus collecting from both Laureate equity and debt suppliers. The Laureate CEO, Doug Becker, is involved as a Clinton backer, Clinton Global Initiative and Clinton Foundation donor and involved in the International Youth Foundation, a recipient of favors and money from the Clinton-led Department of State. [emphasis added]

Incredibly, in 2013 the International Finance Corporation announced a record setting $150 million investment in Laureate at a time when its financial condition was rocky at best. Clinton’s involvement sealed the deal. Then the Clinton Global Initiative and Clinton Foundation entered into a joint venture with Laureate to create CGI-University. Yet none of these related party disclosures are included in any of the Clinton Foundation or Clinton Global Initiative filings for relevant periods (starting in 2008 or so).

The fact that our politicians are for sale is no surprise.

The surprise is that they are for sale for so cheap.

16’5 of 55 is only 30% far less than the 50% that tin pot dictators get.
