Chelsea Clinton will testify to her mother's credentials (barf alert)
Washington Post ^ | July 28, 2016 | Catherine Lucey

After days of endorsements from celebrities, elected leaders and passionate supporters, Hillary Clinton will be introduced Thursday night by the woman who knows her simply as mom.

[Snip]

It's part of a campaign effort to show the softer side of the former first lady, senator and secretary of state.

And it's hardly a new role for 36-year-old Chelsea, who works for the Clinton Foundation and recently gave birth to her second child. She has been active in the campaign, as with her mother’s past campaigns. She was at the convention Wednesday night, as her father called her birth "the greatest moment of my life." Hillary Clinton talks about her too, often telling a story about toddler Chelsea asking her to stop singing lullabies.

Because she's lived so long in public, many voters feel they already know her, like Cynthia Doty, 65, a Clinton supporter from New York City, who said, "I think she's grown up into a really remarkable woman."

The Clinton Scandals provide endless reality TV show intrigue. The latest is Chelsea's hubby setting up a Greek bond fund with his financiers, Goldman Sachs. Secretary of State Hillary helped out-- allegedly sharing classified information to help her SIL.

The 2012 Mezvinski $325 million basket of offshore funds under the Eaglevale Partners lost tens of millions of dollars. Mezvinsky's exclusive Greek debt fund suffered near-total losses....and ended up shuttering the disastrous hedger.

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

It takes a special kind of stupid for Mezvinsky to drop that much cash trading on good inside information ... then again, "special kid of stupid"....sure does describe the Mezvinsky family. Read on.

Chelsea's FIL, Ed Mezvinsky, is a former Democratic congressman; he sat on the House Judiciary Committee that decided the fate of Richard Nixon. He was outspoken, saying that Nixon was a crook and a disgrace to politics and the nation and should be impeached.

Later, Mezvinsky served seven years in a federal prison for stealing money from his friends, family and associates through a series of crude Nigerian-based scams. Sap-happy Mezvinsky was targeted as a likely subject for the infamous Nigerian black ink scam.

Edward, a lawyer, was married when he met Chelsea's MIL, Marjorie----they soon got married---but divorced after Edward got conned into several notorious Nigerian-based email financial frauds guaranteed to make you rich.

In his haste to get rich quick, to raise money to get in on these "heaven-sent" investment schemes, Edward defrauded many of his friends and business contacts.....including Marjorie's mother.

Alas, when the Nigerians got their hands on Ed's money, they did a 23-skidoo. Having failed to come up w/ payback, Edward got nabbed by the long arm of the law. Mezvinsky pleaded guilty to 31 of 69 felony counts. He did hard time----spent 7+ years in a federal prison w/ no chance of parole, and still owes $10 million in restitution.

Democrat Congressional 2014 candidate Marjory Margolies is also no stranger to the dollar disease. Because of her husband's felony convictions, she filed for bankruptcy. But the court would NOT discharge her of her debts, finding that she could NOT explain where some $1 million in assets had vanished, in the previous 4 year span...during Mezvitsky's crime spree.

In their heyday, Ed Mezvinsky and then-wife Marjorie, herself a former Democratic congresswoman from Pennsylvania (an ex-TV reporter---and recent election loser), were part of the political and social elite in Philadelphia.

The Mezvinskys were close to Bill and Hillary Clinton and were frequent guests at the White House. Prosecutors say Mezvinsky exploited his ties to the Clintons, including his son's relationship with Chelsea, to woo investors to contribute more money to the Nigerian schemes.

In an interview with Des Moines Register from prison in 2003, Mezvinsky said he found the notoriously fraudulent Nigerian Black Ink scam "convincing."

"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.

LOSSES GALORE: 2014 candidate Marjorie was flacked by the Clintons but lost her bid to get back into Congress.

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

REFERENCE Mezvinsky, who married Chelsea Clinton in 2010, founded the investment firm Eaglevale Partners two years later with the help of Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein, a prominent Hillary Clinton supporter. Billionaire investor and Democratic megadonor Marc Lasry was also an early investor in Eaglevale.

The firm, which manages about $330 million in total, is down 1 percent on the year, which is slightly worse than average for hedge funds. Since its inception, Eaglevale has posted what the New York Times described as “uneven performance.” Mezvinsky’s financial trouble is unlikely to concern wife Chelsea, who has said she could never bring herself to care about money. That didn’t stop her from turning down a $600,000 annual salary at NBC News to do basically nothing except interview the Geico gecko from time to time.

The money-losing couple lives in a luxury $10 million luxury condo in Manhattan’s trendy Flatiron District.

Honest ta God...anymore of that "Clinton Solidarity" and I'll puke.

THE CLINTON SOLIDARITY ACT CAPTURED ON FILM
One Clinton lies and the other swears to it.

"I never had sexual relations with that woman...Miss Lewinsky."

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

STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE

VINTAGE TIME COVER The Clintons leave the WH
arm-in-arm after Bill got lewinskied. Plotting to exploit
Bill's BJ for votes, the Clintons' political apparat never faltered.

Hillary later went on network TV all decked out in virginal pearls,
denying everything, blaming Billy's B/J on "an invention of
the VRWC." Bill later admitted to it, was impeached, and disbarred.

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

NOTE---Pres Clinton was a tax-paid employee using tax -paid offices .....
but the sucker claimed it was his business what he did there (groan).

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

Watch for the Clintons patented "solidarity" con game.

"Smile everybody. Another $100 million came in today.

about one million times more than she’s worth

That would apply if she was at minimum wage. Actually it would not be one million but infinity.

Waiting for the media to ask Chelsea about the horrible way Hillary treats women raped by Slick Willie.

And waiting.....

Oh look, the media IS asking Ivanka to comment on Trumps past wives

It’s way past time to feel any sympathy for her. She is 36 yrs old and has had ample time to figure out the world. She embraces the grifting ways of the Clinton world. She had never worked a decent job in her life but enjoys millions for doing nothing. She is a willing participant in the Clinton Crime Syndicate.

I’ve heard that Socks, the Clinton cat, buried a lot of family secrets in its litter box.

I would think that in order for someone to ‘testify’ as to the credentials of another individual, that someone should have credentials herself.

Isn’t it time she paid respect to her father? Webb really would have been proud of her. After all, ddin’t he give Hildabeast her first lessons in bribery and money laundering? And here is Chelsea’s husband scamming 50mil of some poor slobs because they thought Chelsea had the fix in for them.

"I think she's grown up into a really remarkable woman."

That's one of my barometers, whereby I can tell instantly if a person is a low-info, low intelligence voter.

Chelsea’s husband should be the speaker. How he deals with being married to a Clinton.

No, she is a true lying propagandist of Clinton stock. I have seen what she says out on the campaign trail. She is every bit as dishonest as her parents, and happy to be so.

I'm with you. If she had any sense or personal integrity she'd distance herself as far as possible from her two grifting parents. But it's hard to admit to oneself just how evil one's parents are.

Agreed. Sure hope Chelsea gets to go home and be a mom to
her children. - Most anyone can sympathize with her on
things that she has no fault in.

Poor childless old Bill. I wonder if he ever thinks what HIS child would look like.

Drawing a side-by-side comparison to Ivanka Trump is not going to benefit her.
