Well that’s it, Trump is finished.

My United States have been co-opted by the clintons and the obamas

I saw Hillary on CNN and they were quizzing her about Trump’s coming assault on the Clinton Foundation, and getting her response out there. CNN is still dwelling on the judge business. Of course, we all know that the judge flap was designed to distract attention from the Mexican flag waving, American flag burning mobs assaulting Trump supporters.

[USNBandit]

The only question is whether to make a full dump on this topic early or to go with a steady stream of data leading all the way through November.

[dowcaet]

About damn time someone called the Clintons out on this. The Clintons know that Trump is gonna be tough to beat. When they launch an attack on Trump he’ll fire back at them immediately and twice as hard too

[Pearls Before Swine]

It’s about time someone went there, and went there directly. All the conservative commentators just diddle around the fringes.

I guess this line of attack has been long planned as a major part of the campaign. Initially, I thought that there might have been better sounding names than “Crooked Hillary,” I was wrong. I didn’t realize this thrust was coming, and the name was advance artillery, softening up the ground.

It’s not going to be a “my honorable rival and I differ on this issue” type of campaign. They are each going to go for the throat and call the other unfit. Unfit temperment was in fact Hillary’s opening salvo. Donald’s going to go after character, honesty, and past experience.

After he accuses her of charity tax fraud and influence peddling, five will get you ten he shifts to her lying to the families of the four Benghazi dead.

But, Democrats are so ignorant and tribal. Will they listen even a little? Not many.

Savvy businessman Donald Trump says the Clintons used the State Dept as a hedge fund. (NOTE A "hedge fund" uses OPM to invest in hopes of making large profits).

MEMO TO DONALD Not only the State Dept, the Clintons had the entire US Treasury at their disposal. Read on.

Every aspect of the Bill Clinton presidency must be examined for wrongdoing. Recent news reports say the notoriously greedy Clintons used their tax-exempt Clinton Foundation charity to setup a Romney-like money-making private equity fund in the corrupt country of Colombia.

Why Colombia?

WIKI REFERENCE---In 2000, the Clinton administration committed $1.3 billion in foreign aid to the corrupt country of Colombia...... and up to five hundred military personnel to train local forces. An additional three hundred civilian personnel were allowed to assist in the eradication of coca.

The Clinton deal was an addition to $330 million of previously approved US aid to Colombia. $818 million was earmarked for 2000, with $256 million for 2001.

The Clinton-era appropriations for his Colombia Plan made Colombia the third largest recipient of foreign aid from the United States at the time.

--SNIP--

As of 2008, the U.S. has provided nearly $1.3 billion to Colombia through Clinton Plan Colombia nonmilitary aid programs:

<><> Alternative Development (2000-2008 cost: $500 million)

<><> Internally Displaced Persons (2000-2008 cost: $247 million)

<><> Demobilization and Reintegration (2000-2008 cost: $44 million)

<><> Democracy and Human Rights (2000-2008 cost: $158 million)

<><> Promote the Rule of Law (2000-2008 cost: $238 million)

04/16/2008 report----Former President Bill Clinton has earned hundreds of thousands of dollars speaking on behalf of a Colombia-based group pushing the trade pact, and representatives of that organization tell The Huffington Post that the former president shared their sentiment.

In June 2005, Clinton was paid $800,000 by the Colombia-based Gold Service International to give four speeches throughout Latin America. The organization is, ostensibly, a development group tasked with bringing investment to the country and educating world leaders about the Colombia’s business opportunities.

The group’s chief operating officer, Andres Franco, said in an interview that the group supports the congressional ratification of the free trade agreement and that, when Clinton was on his speaking tour, he expressed similar opinions. “He was supportive of the trade agreement at the time that he came, but that was several years ago.

In the present context, I don’t know what his position would be. It is not only about union trade rights. It is about what benefit or damage it can do to the US economy,” said Franco. “Events with the Clinton campaign [concerning Mark Penn] are not good at all for the trade agreement... Right now it became a campaign issues and that is sad, because it needs to go through.”

The comments were supported by a June 23, 2005 article from the news portal Terra (uncovered by Ben Smith at Politico) in which Clinton offered unambiguous support for the free trade agreement with Colombia.

They appear to be the first public indication that Clinton has, at least in the past, supported the trade deal. But evidence that the former president has been sympathetic to Colombia’s position is widely known. In 2007, Clinton met personally with and accepted an award from Colombia’s controversial president, Alvaro Uribe, during a time when the country was attempting to improve its image within the United States.

Subsequently, Clinton urged Congress to view the country in a more favorable light.

Moreover, Clinton has helped Frank Giustra, one of the biggest donors to the Clinton Global Initiative, score meetings with high-ranking Colombian officials. Giustra has several business interests in the country, and both he and Clinton have collaborated on an effort to (cough) "fight poverty in developing world by partnering up with mining companies in Colombia and elsewhere." http://nypost.com/2008/12/19/bubba-sheik-ing-the-money-tree/

Clinton and Giustra made a big show of The Clinton Foundation's do-goodism in earthquake-ravaged Haiti.

REALITY CHECK Then-Secy Hillary supposedly gave Haiti $3.1 billion tax dollars for Earthquake Relief.

But Haitian-American protesters claim that American aid to Haiti was a cover-for foreign governments to funnel kickbacks of hundreds of millions of dollars to The Clinton Foundation.

I wonder how much Hillary will sell our nuclear codes for.

[Liz]

Canada's Frank Giustra bigtime FOB, could be the criminal key here. Bill Clinton found out a lot about Canada's secrecy laws when he was dodging the draft some years back.

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

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. (could also be the money-laundering apparat)

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

As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation. Uranium One chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well.

And shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One, Mr. Clinton received $500,000 for a Moscow speech from a Russian investment bank with links to the Kremlin that was promoting Uranium One stock.

At the time, both Rosatom and the United States government made promises intended to ease concerns about ceding control of company assets to the Russians. Those promises have been repeatedly broken, records show. (hat tip amorphous)

[faithhopecharity]

Go Trump! (that’s exactly what Hilarity did, she made $$$ tons and tons of $$$ from her ‘public office’)

[Liz]

The NY Times reported the "Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership" collected about $33 million US tax dollars from Hillary's State Dept between 2008 and 2013.....$25 million of which was passed back across the border to the US-based Clinton Foundation.

Giustra then pledged $100 million to the Foundation after Clinton helped him clinch the mega-bucks uranium deal.

ITEM---millions of dollars and 1,100 donors are shrouded in mystery in the Canadian Giustra/Clinton operation. The Clinton Foundation signed a memorandum of understanding with the Obama White House agreeing to reveal its contributors every year. The agreement stipulates that the Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative (as the charity was then-known) is part of the Clinton Foundation and must follow the same protocols.

SURPRISE: It hasnt.

Caught w/ his pants down, Giustra/s backtracking like crazy---saying Canadas federal privacy law forbids the Canadian-registered Clinton charity, from revealing its donors.

A memo he provided news organs cites fiduciary obligations to its contributors and Canada’s Personal Information Privacy and Electronic Disclosure Act. “We are not allowed to disclose even to the Clinton Foundation the names of our donors,” Giustra says.

However, Canadian tax and privacy law experts were dubious of the Clinton/Giustra claims. A former director knowledgeable about tax policy at Canada's Department of Finance, said he wasnt aware of any tax laws that would prevent the Clinton charity from releasing its donor names. "There's nothing that would preclude them from releasing donor names. It's entirely up to them."

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

Hillary and Frank Giustra, left.

Hes a gold mining mogul......he facilitated the takeover of US uranium assets.... he received tax dollars from Hillary's State Dept.

Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra is one of the Clinton Foundation’s largest donors. Giustra's $100 million contributions go directly:

<><> (1) to the tax-exempt Clinton Foundation, and,

<><> (2) to the Canada-based "Clinton-Giustra Enterprise Partnership."

The "Clinton-Giustra Enterprise Partnership" in turn sends money to the Clinton Foundation...(according to Canadian tax records researched by "Clinton Cash" author Schweizer).

The Clinton Foundation is “organized crime” at its finest, and we are financing it. It may prove to be the largest political criminal enterprise in U.S. history. This is a textbook case on how you hide foreign money and repackage it for your own purposes. All tax free. Read on.

Fox/s Krauthammer said some of the 30k emails Hillary deleted from her private email server very likely had references to the Clinton Foundation, which would be illegal and a conflict of interest.

Here's a concise summary the Clinton Foundation's tax free international money laundering scheme:

1. First, create a separate foreign “charity.”.......this one's in Canada.

2. Foreign oligarchs and governments then donate to this Canadian charity......over 1,000 ontributed mega millions out of the goodness of their hearts expecting nothing in return. (Imagine Putin’s buddies deciding to send untold millions to a Canadian charity).

3. The Canadian charity then bundles the separate mega-donations and makes one massive donation to the Clinton Foundation.

4. The Clinton Foundation and the cooperating Canadian charity claim Canadian law prohibits the identification of individual donors. (Canadian officials dispute the claim)

5. The Clinton Foundation then “spends” some of this money for legitimate good works programs (observers believe not more than a measly 10%). The rest goes to enrich the Clinton’s, for salaries paid to untold numbers of political factotums, hangers on, and to fund the Clintons' lavish lifestyle, travel, etc...... all tax free, which means you and I are subsidizing it.

6. The billion dollar Clinton Foundation can hire the world’s best accountants but somehow fails to report much of this funding on their tax filings. They allude to them as“clerical errors” and announce they are they are-filing 5 years of tax returns.

7. Include as a principal mining investor Frank Giustra, Clinton/s globe-trotting crony, who is central to the formation of Uranium One, the Canadian company that somehow acquired massive U.S. uranium interests and then sold them to an organization controlled by Russia.

Net result — foreign money goes into the Clinton’s pockets tax free and is untraceable to the original donor.

This is the textbook definition of money laundering. Now you know why Hillary’s destruction of 30,000 e-mails was a risk she was willing to take.

CHILLING THOUGHT---The Clintons could be back in the White House in January, 2017 unless people are informed. So inform and educate them.

[faithhopecharity]

we agree that many D’s won’t listen
BUT some WILL.....many of Bernie’s supporters (and he has a lot more supporters than Hillary!)... are voting for Bernie because they do NOT want Hillarity in the WH.... ,most of them realize she is corrupt as Hell
and they don’t want any more of that ... some, a pretty decent number of them, WILL consider voting for Mr. Trump...as long as he keeps pointing out Hillary’s lies and corruption and as long as he promises he will try to clean things up

many of them have very leftist politics (as do Hillary’s fewer supporters) but .... the Bernie people want to CLEAN UP the fed govt...... something they know Hillary would NEVER ever even try to do, she revels in corruption like a big fat pig revels in mud/sh*t

come to think of it, that’s a very appropriate image, ha!

[Behind the Blue Wall]

I hope Trump hits hard on the likely connection between the deleted emails and the Clinton Foundation. I haven’t heard anyone ask her what I would consider to be campaign-ended question: “Were your emails related to the Clinton Foundation considered work-related (and thus saved) or private (and thus deleted).”

I’m sure she’d try to weasel out of that question, but if pinned, I have to assume that they were considered “private” and thus deleted. So then it would not be “yoga classes”, but now it’s the juiciest part of the whole story: what was she promising in return for the donations while she was Secretary of State? And emails are two way communications, so no matter what, they’re recoverable. Let’s spend the next five months talking about that!

Sadly, I have relatives who are professing their love for Herself, and blindly ignoring her ‘transgressions’ and, frankly, her felonies. They are sucked into the Progressive Kool Aid that is leading to the death of their nation. They are oblivious to it. Sad.
