UAE ADVISER ILLEGALLY FUNNELED FOREIGN CASH INTO HILLARY CLINTON’S 2016 CAMPAIGN
The Intercept ^ | 01/17/2022 | Matthew Cole

Posted on 01/17/2022 2:16:41 PM PST by thegagline

GEORGE NADER, an American adviser to the government of the United Arab Emirates, convicted sex offender, and frequent visitor to the White House during President Donald Trump’s first year in office, has pleaded guilty for his role in helping the UAE pump millions of dollars in illegal campaign contributions into the U.S. political system during the 2016 presidential election, according to documents submitted in federal court last month.

Federal prosecutors disclosed in a December sentencing memo that Nader had agreed months earlier to plead guilty to a single count of felony conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government by funneling millions in donations to Hillary Clinton’s campaign and concealing the funds’ foreign origin. Nader’s plea has not been previously reported. *** Prosecutors allege that, in total, Nader transferred nearly $5 million from his UAE-based business to Khawaja, the CEO of a Los Angeles-based payment processing company. The sentencing memo details Nader and Khawaja’s efforts to disguise the money as a mundane business contract between the two. Of that amount, more than $3.5 million came from the government of the UAE and was given to Democratic political committees working to elect Clinton, according to the U.S. government, which has accused Nader, Khawaja, and six others of working together to conceal the origin of those funds. Prosecutors have not publicly accounted for what happened to the remaining $1.4 million they say Nader transferred to Khawaja.

***

Prosecutors are seeking a five-year sentence for Nader, asking that it not begin until after he completes the 10-year sentence he is currently serving for possessing child pornography and bringing a minor to the U.S. “for the purpose of engaging in criminal sexual activity.”

I believe there are pictures of this guy in the water with Bill Clinton and some others. They are shirtless.

Yet this article starts out talking about Trump.

I'm certain this isn't the only time in history this little scheme happened. It sure would be nice to get a total on the foreign funds that make their way to our politicians.

"UAE ADVISER ILLEGALLY FUNNELED FOREIGN CASH INTO HILLARY CLINTON’S 2016 CAMPAIGN"

..... Actually I think it should be pointed out that this article is absolutely Baseless. In the United States it IS NOT Illegal for Foreign Money to be donated to a Political Campaign!! It is a well known fact that Foreign Donations are only illegal if the foreign money is donated to a Republican or Conservative Politician.

Not illegal unless someone is arrested, tried, convicted, and goes to jail! In other words, everyone involved is 100% safe.

Nothing is really illegal when it comes to the Clintons.

This is nothing new to the Clintons. They’ve enjoyed foreign campaign cash for decades. Does the name John Huang ring a bell?

Investigators finally found Huang during an investigation into foreign ca$h funneling into the democrat party and Clinton campaign.

If memory serves me, he poured millions into the above yet lived in this tiny lil house in Florida. Hint hint...communist Chinese $$$.

Democrats have certainly cornered the market in pedophiles.

Still waiting for a list of ALL Epstein's 'clients'...NOT just the 'elite sexual weirdos' in his black book, but the whole bunch of 'em.

That said, folk in the ME have contempt for American politicians and military brass who come to 'give speeches' for $10,000 A MINUTE'. Arab cultures understand bribes and they're not fooled by American's 'speech' BS... (a BRIBE IS A BRIBE.)

Hillary and her political pimp - oops I mean husband - made their full share of phony baloney 'speeches' around the world. The Clinton's pretending %400,000 for a 40 minute 'speech' is ethical... such liars same with the other 'American' with their hands out ready to be greased. Sickening.
