The New York Times wrote a brutal takedown of Chelsea Clinton's husband's hedge fund
Business Insider ^ | 03/23/2015 | Julia La Roche

The New York Times totally threw shade at Bill and Hillary Clinton's son-in-law, Marc Mezvinsky.

Matt Goldstein and Steve Eder wrote an article in The New York Times suggesting that Mezvinsky —who is married to Chelsea Clinton —had been able to gain access to investors with ties to the Clintons for the hedge fund he cofounded that has had "underwhelming returns."

About a month ago, The Wall Street Journal published a report about the fund's underperformance since its inception. The Times' report focuses primarily on Mezvinsky and his role in fund-raising and strategizing for the fund.

Back in 2011, Mezvinsky, now 37, and two former Goldman Sachs colleagues — Bennett Grau and Mark Mallon — began raising money for Eaglevale Partners LP.

Some of Eaglevale's investors include hedge fund billionaire Marc Lasry and Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein, the report said.

Lasry, a longtime Clinton friend, runs Avenue Capital, where Chelsea previously worked after graduating from Stanford. Lasry told The Times that he "gave them money because I thought they would make me money."

A Goldman spokesman told The Times that Blankfein invested in Eaglevale because of his relationship with Grau, the fund's chief investment officer. At the DealBook Conference in December, Blankfein, who has been a strong supporter of Democrats in the past, said he had "always been a fan of Hillary Clinton." Hillary is expected to announce her presidential campaign soon.

Chelsea's husband gained access to investors who had ties to the Clintons.....but his hedge fund has had "underwhelming returns. The WSJ reported extensively on the fund's underperformance since its inception.

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

The NY Times reports on Mezvinsky and his role in fund-raising and strategizing. Back in 2011, Mezvinsky, now 37, and two former Goldman Sachs colleagues — Bennett Grau and Mark Mallon — began raising money for Eaglevale Partners LP. Some of Eaglevale's investors included Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein. Blankfein, a slavish Democrat supporter, said he had "always been a fan of Hillary Clinton."

Oh, wait a sec...that Clinton/Goldman connection sounds awfully familiar. Hillary's close aide, Huma Abedin, reportedly had private email addresses on the Clinton email server system (underlining Democrats' greatest fear: the intersection of undisclosed foreign donations to the Clinton Foundation and Hillary Clinton’s secret email address.

FACTS ON FILE Then-Secy Hillary gave her close aide, Huma Abedin, “State Dept special status".......meaning Abedin was working for Hillary at State....... AND simultaneously working for Bill Clinton, as a private contractor for his company, Teneo Holdings. Read on.

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

Back in Jan 2014, Sen Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) probed Hillary's State Dept aide's employment status...... asking how Huma Abedin got a sweetheart deal as an outside private six-figure consultant while at the State Department.

Abedin held “special government employee” status, and worked a sideline---as a private contractor. One of Huma's clients was Bill Clinton's Company----Teneo Holdings----a dual-track consulting firm that calls itself the “next chapter in strategic advisory.”

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

HUMAN EVENTS EXCERPT: A former employee of bankrupt MF Global accused former president Clinton----chairman of Teneo's advisory board----of collecting $50,000 per month through his Teneo advisory firm in the months before MFG careened towards its Halloween filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, as hundreds of millions of investor funds disappeared.

Teneo was hired by MF Global’s former CEO Jon S. Corzine (an ex-Goldman Sachser) to improve his image and to enhance his connections with Clinton’s political family, said the employee, who asked that his name be withheld because he feared retribution, according to HE.

The source, who is no longer associated with MF Global, said Teneo is a dual-track company with one side devoted to merchant and investment banking and the other side set up to provide image and strategy consulting services. The Teneo contract with MF Global lasted some five months, the source said. The board cancelled it after Corzine resigned.

The trustee for cheated MFG investors later sued JPMorgan bank for return of about $450M that MFG had wire- transferred out of its accounts to JPM's bank.

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

An earlier NYT's expose tarred Bill Clinton w/ Teneo's sub rosa dealings. Teneo is run by Clinton aide---Doug Band. Prosecutors found Band and Clinton listed in pedophile's Jeffry Epsteiin's records as having a shocking 21 email addresses and tele nos........that L/E recognizes as the MO for money-laundering and tax evasion.

Hillarys campaign may never be announced...

There's no doubt in my mind that the Ministry of Truth, (aka, the mainstream media), has been given orders to take Hillary down, from the very top.

There's no way on earth the New York Times would run such a piece on any Clinton, if they hadn't been told to do so.

Actually, Mezvinsky’s contact was General Kachinga Cheatchusuckah-—a high-ranking officer in the Nigerian Army.

Time to “move on.org” as they used to say.

Especially after Ted Cruz just bulldozed the political landscape this morning.

"The Nigerian man came out with a chemical, threw it on the money, and it all turned to $100 bills. He gave me 10 to have them tested back home. And they were real," Mezvinsky told a reporter.

You had me going until that last line.

“IOW, they want Warren.”

or Biden.

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/12/upshot/imagining-2016-without-hillary-clinton.html?abt=0002&abg=1

The first candidate. Vice President Joe Biden wants to run for president. He wants to run as a populist defender of the middle class — a native son of Scranton, Pa. — and the heir to President Obama.

Looks like the powers behind the scenes have decided that Hillary has missed her window. Being Clintons, they will soldier on until they are completely boxed in and then will step aside in exchange for escaping any consequences to their actions. Imagine if the corporate media went after Hillary and family they way they went after Sarah Palin? Obama has got to be enjoying this aspect of his last two lame duck years.
