Clinton Foundation files 4 years of amended tax returns to fix errors

Washington Times ^ | 11/16/15 | Jennifer Pompi

[markomalley]

The Clinton Foundation has voluntarily filed four years of amended tax returns after an error was brought to the organization’s attention.

“In addition to filing our 2014 Form 990, after a thorough review, the Foundation has decided to voluntarily amend its returns for 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013. This review was the result of an error in the first three of those years being brought to our attention,” Clinton Foundation President and CEO Donna Shalala wrote in a letter to supporters.

Ms. Shalala said that although Clinton Foundation tax reviewers found “several additional errors” upon performing an “exhaustive review,” the mistakes did not require the foundation to file an amended return, that the the errors did not change the organization’s “bottom line numbers: assets, liabilities, and net assets.” She added that the foundation does not owe any taxes as a result of the errors.

INCONVENIENT FACTOIDS The Clinton Foundation Initially "Suggested That The $31.3 Million Contribution Listed On Its Tax Return Did Not Come From A Single Donor," The Foundation later said "It Came From A Single Source, But Declined To Identify It.

The $31.3 million previously undisclosed donation to the Clinton Foundation, came from the Radcliffe Foundation run by Frank Giustra, a Canadian who has made millions financing mining deals around the world.

NOTE WELL: The IRS has observed that the most-used money-laundering, tax evasion fraud is one foundation writing a check to another foundation.

For weeks, Clinton Foundation officials had suggested that the $31.3 million contribution listed on its tax return did not come from a single donor. They then said it came from a single source, but declined to identify it. Then on Wednesday afternoon in 2007, a representative of Mr. Giustra contacted The Times and acknowledged the Radcliffe Foundation contribution." (Don Van Natta Jr., Joe Becker and Mike McIntire, "In Charity And Politics, Clinton Donors Overlap," The New York Times, 12/20/07)

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

All of the Clinton Foundation donors have faced intense media scrutiny, particularly Canada-based mining mogul Frank Giustra; Giustra is a mega Clinton Foundation donor and personal friend of Bill Clinton, and was scrutinized for business deals that critics said were linked to his donations to the charity. Giustra is a member of Mr. Clinton's inner circle, joining him on global trips and lending Clinton the use of Giustras private MD-87 jet.

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

The NYT report WRT the sell-off of strategic US uranium assets noted that the uranium investors also donated to the Clinton Foundation, as follows:

Canadian Frank Giustra--globe-trotting pal of Bill---donated $31.3 million and a pledge for $100 million more to the Clinton Foundation. Giustra built a company that later merged with Uranium One. Seems to have facilitated the uranium sell-off.

Canadian Ian Telfer--donated $2.35 million to the Clinton Foundation. Mining investor who was chairman of Uranium One when an arm of the Russian government, Rosatom, acquired it.

Paul Reynolds--donated $1 million to $5 million to the Clinton Foundation Adviser on 2007 UrAsia-Uranium One merger. Later helped raise $260 million for the company.

Frank Holmes---donated $250,000 to $500,000 to the Clinton Foundation. Chief Executive of U.S. Global Investors Inc., which held $4.7 million in Uranium One shares in the first quarter of 2011.

Canadian Neil Woodyer---Founded Endeavour Mining with Giustra--donated $50,000 to $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation. Adviser to Uranium One.

GMP Securities Ltd.---Donating portion of profits to the Clinton Foundation. Worked on debt issue that raised $260 million for Uranium One.

While we’re on the subject of taxes, Melinda Gates should be paying 43% income tax as I do, instead of distributing free abortifacients in Africa.

Keep in mind ex-Pres Bill and ex Senator and SoS Hillary are very familiar w/ the nuances of rules and regs.

FREEPER 9THLIFE ASTUTELY POSTED: Banks drill their employees WRT money laundering and terrorist funding MOs. EVERY transaction -- especially by those who are politically involved -- is subject to scrutiny.

There is no way -- categorically N.O. way -- that anyone could have pulled off what is alleged against the Clinton Foundation. Unless it was a Clinton, acting with the express complicity of some very high-ups at some very big banks.

THE FACTS ARE THESE: the banks are compelled to fill-out and file reports on every suspicious transaction. If the transaction involves international transfers and shady characters (reference the Friends of Bill in the uranium transaction above).....each and every one would be escalated to the desk of senior bank management.

The bank reports themselves are required to be on file for 5 years. Discussion of such reports -- even their existence is strictly controlled -- and generally forbidden. Yet they remain on record.

It's entirely conceivable that suspicious activity reports were passed on to bank oversight agencies like OCC and whomever else has jurisdiction...where the slippery Clintons had them buried. Still, some bankers know about the transactions. Unless the banks did not file the reports ..... which is a crime under current law.

[Flick Lives]

Form 990? Is that the form one uses for filing for bribery and influence peddling?

[Liz]

Let's follow the money.

Then-Sens Corzine and Clinton.

EXHIBIT ONE Corzine was fresh out of Goldman Sachs executive suite, buying his NJ Senate seat office for $65 million; then buying the NJ governorship. Out of office, he ran a hedge fund where $1.5 B went missing....that employed both Bill Clinton and then-Secy of State Hillary's top aide Huma Abedin.

EXHIBIT TWO When Chelsea Clinton's husband started a hedge fund, he gained access to investors who had ties to the Clintons and to Goldman Sachs. Back in 2011, Mezvinsky, now 37, and two former Goldman Sachs'ers Bennett Grau and Mark Mallon began raising money for Mezvinsky's Eaglevale Partners LP hedge fund.

Some of Mezvinsky's investors included Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein. Blankfein, a slavish Democrat supporter, said he had "always been a fan of Hillary Clinton." The WSJ reported extensively on the hedge fund's underperformance since its inception and Mezvinsky's mediocre investing and strategizing.

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

EXHIBIT THREE Then-US Sen Jon Corzine (D-NJ), used his office to pass a special tax exemption for a Japanese bank he owned----his Goldman Sachs crony, Christopher Flowers---adminstrator of Sen Corzine's "blind trust"--- used Corzine's blind assets to takeover the Japanese bank. Corzine later said he "did not know" the legislation he sponsored "benefited" him.

There's a saying in Congress---"One hand washes the other." You vote for my bill; I vote for your bill. So did Did Hillary vote for Corzine's legislation....giving tax breaks for a Japanese bank Corzine's "blind trust" owned?

So what other Wall Street deals did Corzine make w/ Hillary to enrich himself...and her?

So, this HAS to be what happened to the Judicial Watch 145 page interim report to Congress stating the Clinton (Bill & Hillary) WH an staff had likely violated the RICO act?

http://www.wnd.com/1998/09/3346/ Out of context from the WND article:

“...Specifically, Judicial Watch sees “a pattern of conduct by this president and his agents that indicates he has run, in effect, a criminal enterprise from the White House to obtain and maintain hold on the Office of the President of the United States. Indeed, he is likely in violation of the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO)..This pervasive corruption, flowing from the Oval Office, is the common thread throughout the various “high crimes and misdemeanors” outlined in this interim report.”

Klayman devotes by far the largest section of his report to
“Commerce-gate/China-gate.” Judicial Watch has been investigating this scandal since 1994, when it first became aware of evidence that the Clinton Commerce Department was illegally selling seats on its international trade missions in exchange for political contributions. Over the next three years, Judicial Watch, in its efforts to uncover what the Commerce Department was hiding, found what Klayman believes is compelling evidence that seats on trade missions were being sold in exchange for campaign contributions.

These “smoking gun” documents include the following:

• Memos from the Clinton White House files of Harold Ickes and Alexis Herman showing that the $100,000 DNC Managing Trustee Program included the sale of the Clinton Commerce Department trade mission seats (among other government-financed perks) and was designed to net President Clinton’s
political operation $40 million;

• A brochure by the Democratic National Committee showing that “foreign trade mission” seats were available for $100,000 contributions to the DNC;

• A list of DNC minority donors found in the files of a key Clinton Commerce Department official;

• A Clinton Commerce Department memo indicating that the DNC donors were input into Commerce Department government database; and

• A DNC memo showing that the DNC provided the names of donors to the Clinton Commerce Department for trade missions to Russia and Belgium.

Additional evidence was provided by Nolanda Hill, close confidante and business partner of late Commerce Secretary Ron Brown. In a sworn affidavit to Judicial Watch and in court testimony, Ms. Hill has testified to the following:

• The first lady conceived of the idea to sell the trade mission seats in exchange for political contributions;

• The president knew of and approved this scheme;

• The vice president participated in this scheme;

• Brown helped implement the illegal fund-raising operation out of the Commerce Department;

• Presidential White House aides Harold Ickes and (now Labor Secretary) Alexis Herman helped orchestrate the sale of the Commerce trade mission seats;

• The president’s top fund-raisers at the DNC and his re-election campaign officials, Marvin Rosen and Terrence McAuliffe, helped coordinate the selling of these taxpayer resources in exchange for political contributions;

• Presidential Chief of Staff Leon Panetta and Deputy Chief of Staff John Podesta ordered the cover-up of these activities; and

• The President’s appointees at the Commerce Department have committed perjury, destroyed and suppressed evidence, and likely breached our nation’s security.

BTW, Clinton WH hid millions of emails of ~500 WH officials from investigators - NOT the 1st time for Hillary...

Trump actually gave between $100,000 and $250,000 to the Clinton Foundation according to this article
http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/242088-trump-gave-at-least-100k-to-clinton-foundation

This article says he gave $200,000

ACADEMY-AWARD WORTHY---Obama puts on a convincing act.
He "knows nothing." Obama didn't even know about this (snix).

Circa 2010--Ex-Pres Clinton in Moscow having a laugh w/ Putin
as strategic US uranium deposits were sold off to Russia for Big Bucks.

"Hahahaha. US ntl security? Hahahaha. You gotta be kidding, Vlad."

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

With all the top-level intel available to him, can Americans actually believe:

<><>Obama was oblivious to the Clintons jerking around US foreign policy?

<><> Obama knew nothing of Hillary and Sid Blumenthal's emails WRT Iran (the man Obama banned from US govt employment)?

<><> Obama knew nothing about the Clinton Foundation/slush fund buck-raking activities?

<><> Obama never noticed Bill Clinton trotting around the globe?

<><> Obama never noticed the Clinton "charity" used to worm his way into the confidences of foreign leaders.... but only those leaders w/ untapped reserves of gold, uranium, oil, and other valuable commodities?

<><> Obama never knew Hillary's brother got a gold-mining permit in Haiti?

Hand-picked by Obama to run State, Hillary ran it like a shadow govt.... w/ her husband taking notes WRT buck-raking opportunities available from Hillary's actions OR inaction.

Secy Hillary never e-v-e-r uttered a discouraging word e-v-e-r......as the Clinton Foundation sucked up hundred of millions of foreign dollars from shady characters.

"Do-goodisn" was the Clintons' passport into the deep pockets of numerous global entities. The avaricious Clintons devised hundreds of obscure programs to collect billions.....bragging about do-goodism, how the money was supposedly dispersed to "assist" endless charitable projects.

The do-gooder Clintons calculatedly morphed into "The Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Family Foundation" ..... giving them even more fund-raising capabilities w/ a friendly "family" aura.

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

Hillary's State Dept emails were found on the Clinton Foundation server, a valuable commodity on the global market, imperiling our ntl security. Not to forget the State Dept's missing $6 billion---just evaporated into thin air on Hillary's watch.

Paraphrasing VDHanson ....lurid revelations indicate the Clinton Foundation is a huge money-laundering operation fuelling the Clintons’ affluent lifestyle and their political ambitions.....with well-paid sinecures for the hydra-headed Clinton retinue flitting around w/ scads of money. The serial cover-ups and financial legerdermain are the result of greed and the Clintons naked buck-raking.......

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

Time to look at the Clintons money-laundering operation. When L/E looked at Jeffrey Epstein's Orgy Island pedophile case, they found Bill Clinton and pal Doug Band w/ 20 phone nos and email addresses. L/E recognizes this as a classic money-laundering MO.

Bill Clinton was an inveterate globe-trotter w/ do-goodism as his passport to the world.....secret accounts, business interests, and other evidence of money laundering, must be everywhere.
