McAuliffe Invited Chinese Donor to Fundraiser at Hillary Clinton’s Home

Hillary Clinton met with the Chinese businessman at the center of a federal investigation into Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D.) during a 2013 fundraiser at her Washington, D.C. home, according to a Time report.

Clinton shook hands with Wang Wenliang during the Sept. 30 event. Less than a month later, Wang would donate $500,000 to the Clinton Foundation, ultimately pledging a total of $2 million to the foundation throughout the year.

McAuliffe, who was on the board of the Clinton Global Initiative, invited Wang to the fundraiser three weeks after one of the businessman’s companies, West Legend Corp., contributed $60,000 to his gubernatorial campaign. The company gave a total of $120,000 to McAuliffe’s bid.

Wang’s representative told Time the event at Clinton’s personal residence was one of at least three meetings between McAuliffe and the businessman.

Just days earlier, McAuliffe denied ever encountering Wang. The governor vowed that he “did no deals” with Wang, adding, “I would not know the man if he sat in a chair next to me.”

He later admitted during a radio interview with WTOP that he had met the businessman “once or twice in my life.”

Wang’s representative told Time that the second meeting between McAuliffe and the businessman occurred at the Virginia state capitol after McAuliffe won the governor seat. The two reportedly discussed expanding a soybean export agreement between Wang and the State of Virginia.

Former South Carolina Gov. Jim Hodges (D.) arranged the third meeting between McAuliffe and Wang where they again discussed soybean exports. Wang’s company, Dandong Port Co., gave Hodges $1.5 million in 2012 to lobby Congress.

The FBI and Justice Department have been probing McAuliffe’s campaign fundraising for the past year, CNN reported on Monday. Government officials are investigating whether donations given to his gubernatorial campaign violated campaign finance laws.

The Justice Department refused to elaborate on the probe’s focus.

“As a matter of policy, the department generally neither confirms nor denies whether a matter is under investigation,” Justice Department spokesman Peter Carr told Time.

Now that you mention it....I hear it, too (smirk).

[Nifster]

The Clinton Crime family

[right way right]

The Clinton's always lead the media from one scandal to the next, never allowing the complete focus to fall on any one particular scandal.
Does anyone else remember this? This is how they keep their corrupt asses in power. It always works too.
and Deja vu.Modus operandi.

[DAC21]

Once a scumbag always a scumbag. Its a real shame Americans have such low attention spans or worst yet just dont give a damn. Nice job Virgina.

[indthkr]

McScumbag alert for later....

[Seruzawa]

I get the distinct whiff of treason.

[SaveFerris]

They’re both lies by Democrats who gained office?

[HarleyLady27]

Oh but he said he didn’t know this guy....typical Clinton playbook...deny, deny, deny, lie, lie, lie....

[headstamp 2]

The graft is 20 feet thick at the Clinton Crime Syndicate.

The Clinton Foundation is money laundering and pay to play hiding in plain site.

[Does so]

Hellery's gesture reminds me of a Kim Jong Il salute:

Yeppppp - he's in to it up to his eyeballs - tells lies just like the Clintons too. The FBI is over the target.

This can only get better!

The thick ankle, dog face (courtesy Nick DiPaolo) used a private email server because it made it easier for the Chinese to steal classified information that she placed on it for that purpose.

[Chewbarkah]

“Wanna bet the FBI finds something on the Clintons while probing Terry Mac?”

Sounds like they already have.

But I wonder if the FBI found some things on McAuliffe after recovering Hillary’s deleted “personal” emails.

Some things happen by accident, some by design. Wouldn’t it be interesting if the FBI found evidence of Clinton corruption on the server, and someone leaked the McAuliffe story as a way to slowly drag it into public view? Once evidence is out there that Hillary deleted messages about political wheeling and dealing, the dam will soon burst.

Anyone here on FR knows McAulife is as crooked as a three-dollar bill, going back to his World Crossing days and earlier. That the people of Virginia saw fit to elect this carpet bagging con man is another matter. I hope he winds up in jail.

[Blood of Tyrants]

Sure it was just a “donation” and he never expected anything in exchange for it.

In June of 1995, the CIA learned that China had stolen the crown jewels of our nuclear arsenal, including the neutron bomb and the W-88 miniaturized warhead. Later that year National Security Advisor Anthony Lake is briefed on the thefts. He is replaced on the Security Council by Sandy Berger, a former lobbyist for the Chinese government.

(The same Sandy Burger of stolen documents stuffed down his pants. No one had the guts to prevent it, nor stop him on the way out the door.)

Check out article, - and esp # 8 .

Thanks, Liz.

Remember it was Loral Space and Clinton gave them the launching technology for their spy satellites.

Sandy Burglar took documents from the National Archives and INADVERTENTLY destroyed them.

The documents Sandy Burglar took were offers from Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and Yemen to hand bin Laden over to the US

with Bill Clinton’s handwriting on them refusing each of the three offers.

Sandy Burglar was fined $50,000 and served NO jail time.

Bill Clinton said of the thefts and destruction, “We all had a good laugh over that, because we know Sandy.”
