According to Federal Election Commission records, Meltzer has a slim history of giving money to candidates, giving only $1,000 to a congressional candidate. But in 2007 he gave the maximum allowed to the Hillary Clinton campaign. Three of Marc Rich’s attorneys, Peter Kadzik, Robert Fink and Jack Quinn, also a former counsel at the Clinton White House, have donated to Hillary’s campaigns. Quinn has given between $25,000 and $50,000 to the Clinton Foundation.
According to Jack Quinn, Kadzik was hired at the suggestion of Michael Green, ... (because he was trusted by Podesta).

Clinton's top three White House attorneys were expected to say that they told the president that the Rich pardon was a bad idea. The witnesses include John Podesta, Clinton's chief of staff, Beth Nolan, the White House counsel, and Bruce Lindsey, a long-time aide to Clinton.
The committee, chaired by Rep. Dan Burton (R-Ind.), also has obtained information regarding Podesta’s personal attorney, Peter Kadzik. Letters released by the committee today reveal that Kadzik lobbied his own client on behalf of Rich, who has been represented by other attorneys in his firm.

Kadzik, who also is set to testify, works at Dickstein, Shapiro, Morin & Oshinsky, where Rich's longtime attorney Mike Green works. Kadzik has told the committee that he was retained to work on the Rich pardon and that he was involved in contacting his client, Podesta.

Earlier in the month, on Jan. 2, Fink writes in an e-mail about “Mike's friend,” who is described as “the friend of the chief of staff.” The committee is expected to ask if the “friend” of Podesta’s is Kadzik.
