Truly disgusting how Clintons and other libs grandstand in front of genocide, poverty, violence, destruction, chaos, and disasters, only to manipulate the emotions while setting up “non profits” to enrich themselves.

What a great job McConnell and Ryan did holding hearings on all of this corruption and forcing the DOJ to focus on it and getting a criminal referral for the FBI to investigate it.

Oh wait, that didn’t happen. Never mind.

THE CLINTONS' ABILITY TO GET RICH EXPLOITING
NATIONAL DISASTERS UNDER COVER OF THE CLINTON FOUNDATION IS LEGENDARY
and they do it w/ your tax dollars.

Haiti, the Clintons and Digicel

BFF---Clinton and Digicel CEO/billionaire. Dennis O'Brien, a resident of Malta.
O'Brien chairs the Clinton Foundation's Global Initiative---Haiti Action Network.
US tax dollars poured into O'Brien's coffers thanks to the Clintons.

EXCERPT Free Beacon May 2015--- The Clintons have been working with Digicel CEO Denis O’Brien in Haiti since 2010, in the wake of the disastrous earthquake. Bill Clinton and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had been active players in the country before the quake, but would assume almost total managerial control over the recovery effort via the State Department and the Clinton Foundation.

As Peter Schweizer documents in his book, "Clinton Cash," Digicel received millions in U.S. tax dollars from USAID, an agency overseen by the State Department, as part of the Haiti Mobile Money Initiative. The program was designed to establish a mobile money-transfer system that would allow individuals to send donations directly to friends and relatives in Haiti.

The State Department's "USAID Food for Peace" program, which was under the direct control of Hillary Clinton’s top aide Cheryl Mills, benefited Digicel.....to administer money transfers over its mobile network. Haitians received cell phones and a free Digicel account.

Digicel received grants courtesy of U.S. taxpayers, and collected millions in fees from Haitians every time they used the system, and significantly expanded its user base.

By 2012, Digicel had captured nearly 80 percent of the Haitian mobile phone market, and Haiti had surpassed Jamaica as the company’s most profitable market. Revenues were up 14 percent compared to 2011, and Digicel’s subscriber base increased by almost 30 percent during that period.

O’Brien, a resident of Malta, who holds a 94 percent stake in the privately owned firm, continued to rake in cash. In 2014 alone, O’Brien awarded himself $650 million worth of dividends.

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

Time to look at Malta to find more dirt on the Clintons.

BACKSTORY Secy Hillary poured billions of our tax dollars into dirt-poor, earthquake-ravaged Haiti as Bill put on his "do-good" act. But Haitian Americans protested the Clinton Foundation offices say dirt-poor Haitians never got a dime...all of the tax dollars have been laundered into the foundation.

REALITY CHECK In some Haitian mountain villages there's no electricity (maybe generators for a few hours), no water, no septic, etc. - but dirt-poor Haiti does have cell-phone coverage.

Reading the many stories of Clinton "do-goodism" in Haiti....he is invariably standing before a Digicel sign. You can bet your bottom dollar the Clintons get a cut of that action.

That's Digicel's CEO on the left.

The Digicel Group is the Caribbean and Central American telecom empire run by Denis O’Brien, an Irish billionaire officially resides in Malta to avoid taxes..... O'Brien serves as chairman of the Clinton Global Initiative’s Haiti Action Network.

Digicel, the largest mobile provider in Haiti, invested $45 million in the project, which also benefited from $26.5 million in financing from the World Bank- affiliated International Finance Corporation. Hillary also tapped the Sate Dept's USAID agency for more tax dollars for the tax-evadng billionaire.

The State Dept's USAID Food for Peace program, under the direct control of Hillary Clinton’s top aide Cheryl Mills, benefited money-hungry Digicel.....to administer money transfers over its mobile network.

Haitians received cell phones and a free Digicel account; Digicel received grants courtesy of U.S. taxpayers, collected millions in fees from Haitians every time they used the system, and significantly expanded its user base.

But it was Bill Clinton who made it all happen.....using your tax dollars.

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

REFERENCE---“The Clintons and their cronies were running Haiti. As Special Envoy, and Co-Chair of the Interim Haiti Recovery Commission IHRC, Clinton made all the decisions. Nothing happened there without his imprimatur. Nothing. No reconstruction contracts were approved, no money was paid out unless Bill okay-ed them. And Hillary's top aide Cheryl Mills was right behind him, traveling to Haiti thirty times herself. Mills live-in scored big rebuilding/retooling Haiti's schools (as a govt contractor?)" NOTE: Hillary's bro said some "guy" gave him .10,000 acres there, plus bro got a rare permit to mine gold in Haiti.

Well, this is a hot news idem that will never see the light of day in the various DNC media outlets laughingly misnamed the Main Stream Media aka the One Party Press.

....now if it had been Trump or any other Republican (except maybe McCain...then front page news for weeks...

The USA courtesy the Dems and RINO’s makes many 3rd World countries seem like Mother Theresa’s.

That is why you have the alternate press, such as this site.

Did you even read the op-ed? What you wrote has absolutely nothing to do with the subject of the op-ed which is the rip-off of the Haitians by Hillary Rotten Clinton

Hopefully the Trump camp will make as much as hay as possible out of this. There are a lot of Haitians in Florida, and it could erode her black support generally.

Left wing power blocs control all access to broadcast news. They won't allow facts or opinions which damage their political allies.

Oh so McConnell and Ryan DID hold hearings on the rip-off of the Haitians by Hillary Clinton?

Sorry, but the Uniparty has looked the other way (or just made token noises) not just on the Haitian rip-off but on nearly every corruption scheme of the Clintons outlined by Peter Schweizer in Clinton Cash.

The Clintons (along with the corrupt Obama administration) are not the only problem. The GOP-E is a big part of the problem as well.

McConnell wasn’t even Majority leader in the Senate and Paul Ryan Speaker of the House. Put the blame on where it belongs but not on McConnell and Paul Ryan

“This story has not been getting the attention, it deserves.”

Absolutely correct. I don’t quite understand why not; perhaps because the domestic diversions are so engrossing.

But the Clintons deliberately set out to rape this poorest of poor countries and succeeded magnificently. The amounts of money involved, as far as I can tell, utterly dwarf the Saudi and Qatari et al “contributions” to the Clinton Foundation by orders of magnitude AND, are more dishonest by an order of magnitude the way I think about it; because the Saudi money was a bribe for services rendered. This Haiti thing is simply a blatant rip off of worldwide charity funds that were legitimately and altruistically tendered to a people in dire need and were stolen simply because they were there in a huge pile.

These Clintons belong in jail, the CF needs to be shut down and their accounts frozen. Yesterday.

Don’t blame the Republicans in control of the Senate and House for not doing their job and holding hearings and conducting oversight on the corruption of Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Cash scandals?

Absolute nonsense.

McConnell has had control since the 2014 election. Ryan/Boehner has had control since before that.

They have had plenty of opportunity. It shouldn’t have taken Peter Schweizer to uncover this corruption and abuse by the Clintons.
