And he knows this how?
My thoughts exactly.
NOTE WELL Official State Dept employees cant hit up State Dept
contacts for bribes, but private citizens can (hat tip FReeper Gunpowder green)
Just two examples...there's many many more.
<><> Sid Blumenthal was banned from govt employment but, as a private citizen, he was privy to classified State Dept emails while simultaneously employed by the Clinton Foundation. Most shocking was Blumenthal's ability to get SoS Hillary to manipulate US foreign policy for Sid's business interests in Libya.
==================================================
<><> Hillary's COS Cheryl Mills was not an official State Dept employee but, as a private citizen, she was privy to classified info that she could ..and did..use to benefit the Clinton Foundation.
Internal State Dept emails WRT African matters received by the State Dept were routinely passed on to the Clinton Foundation by then-COS Cheryl Mills (now a top honcho in Hillary's 2016 bid).
Mills forwarded State Dept emails to Amitabh Desai, the Clinton Foundation's director of foreign policy; one such email had been directed to the Assistant Secy of State for African Affairs.
Mills told Desai she was sharing the State Department email with him because Bill Clinton was "in contact" with Paul Kagame, president of Rwanda. "[Bill Clinton] has been talking about giving Kagame a plenary role at CGI," Desai said in response, referring to the Clinton Global Initiative.
So why would Bill offer Kagame a plenary role at the CGI?
The Congo's "Freeport Mines" (copper, gold, cobalt) is a major Clinton Foundation donor, giving between $250-500,000, according to donor records. The Congolese government saw its stake in the mine climb by just 2.5 percent in 2010 after Hillary's State Dept conducted talks that were pumped as being "in support of Freeport Mines," the Financial Times reported that year.

=======================================
Once upon a time, US Sen Hillary took issue w/ African govt corruption, but as Secy of State, Hillary looked the other way as the money poured into the Clinton Global Initiative.
