How Clinton Donor Got on Sensitive Intelligence Board
ABC News ^ | June 10, 2016 | Matthew Mosk Brian Ross CHO PARK

Posted on 06/10/2016 6:09:55 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

Newly released State Department emails help reveal how a major Clinton Foundation donor was placed on a sensitive government intelligence advisory board even though he had no obvious experience in the field, a decision that appeared to baffle the department’s professional staff.

The emails further reveal how, after inquiries from ABC News, the Clinton staff sought to “protect the name” of the Secretary, “stall” the ABC News reporter and ultimately accept the resignation of the donor just two days later.

Copies of dozens of internal emails were provided to ABC News by the conservative political group Citizens United, which obtained them under the Freedom of Information Act after more the two years of litigation with the government.

Since this information comes from the State Department via an FOIA filing, can it really be considered a leak?

Throw in the fact that apparently Hillary has hair on her toes according to a new book by one of Bill’s chicks, it’s not the best of Fridays for the Beast.

And if it’s really bad, he can hold a press conference, with stacks of papers on a table for the media, and then resign.

I hope not. It might be the honorable thing to do from his point of view, but I don't want a politicized FBI head appointed by Obama... or Hillary, if she wins election.

“The FBI director must have concluded or been told that Lynch will never indict Hillary, so the leaks are starting.”

The sun will rise in the west and set in the East before Lynch indicts the Criminal Traitor Clintoon.

Lynch is as crooked as Clintoon, which is why she was appointed by Obama. She is Holder with a vagina!

Leaking and whistleblowing differ qualitatively in a manner that substantially impacts an evaluation of integrity.

If there is no prosecution, at least two dozen fbi agents have their retirement papers ready in their pockets, and deals with book agents.

If they retire in late September/early October, they can have their tell all books published and for sale as a Kindle on Amazon.

Then, the Criminal Traitor Clintoon and her ABCNNBCBS/FAUX mediots and NY Slimes/Compost will not be able to save her

Follow the money! Amen!

” Prior to his State Department appointment, Fernando had given between $100,000 and $250,000 to the William J. Clinton Foundation, and another $30,000 to a political advocacy group, Women Count, that indirectly helped Hillary Clinton retire her lingering 2008 campaign debts by renting her campaign email list.”

later in the article it was disclosed frenando has donated between $1 - $5 million to the Xlintonista Foundation.

great idea the hildabeast had to “rent” her campaign email list to retire her lingerilng 2008 debt.

Was he an agent of a Foreign Intelligence Service? Did he pass classified information to foreign governments? Terrorist groups? Did he illegally profit from insider information?

Excellent questions the likely answers are below!

Yes to all of three questions!!

I fail to see how resignation would help as in this climate more Democrat cronies would just be moved into the vacant jobs.
