Good info - good links.

In court documents in Britain, authorities maintain that Mr. Rich was a founding partner of Nordex. They say Nordex was "created by the old guard of the communist regime to allow the exodus of U.S.S.R. Communist Party funds before the Soviet Union's collapse."

Does anyone doubt that Bill and HIllary Clinton are BOTH FULL FLEDGED CARD CARRYING COMMUNISTS????

You may be needed here. Backhoe - do you have the picture of the Russian arms/drugstrading mafia leader in the Clinton White House? I didn't remember the guy's name but evidently it is this communist thug mafioso.

I think the Loutchansky guy was the honored WH guest.

. "The problem was, as they had illegally sent the money out, now they had to find a way to re-launder, or make their money legal ...While it is not clear whether Mr. Loutchansky (through NORDEX or one of its cut-outs), like Mr. Huang and Mr. Cabrera, proved to be a source of large, dubious (if not positively illegal) campaign contributions for Mr. Clinton's benefit(3),

Where Marc Rich goes, can Clinton be far behind? Ol' Bent has the relaundering problem too, making it difficult for him to bring in suitcases full of cash from his Rich-endowed offshore accounts now that he's out of office.

I actually think the offshore money relaundering problem is why Chelsea is in school in England and dashing around the continent like mad (picking up cash from numbered accounts as she goes) and why Bent and Hitlery vacation in the Carib (together, no less, LOL! It takes a thief.).If Rich didn't pay Clinton at least $100 million for his pardon, Clinton got rooked. Rich can make that much in a couple of months.

Yes, I think it is. We need the picture.

PW - good suggestion. Follow the (offshore) money, FBI, and let's reel in the "big fish" - BUBBA CLINTON.

Everyone repeat after me:

THE CLINTONS ARE A COMMUNIST CRIME FAMILY

IMHO, getting these international Russian mobsters locked up is an important part of America's war on terrorism.

Surely somebody has kept those White House coffee/photo for cash picture threads/links? Would you ping me if you get a response on this? I need them too.

Rich is obviously banking on President Clinton (Hillary) granting a second pardon.

Hey, maybe he already has Chelsea pegged for an unprecedented "three-peat"

To help in any photo search...
Russian businessman used White House invitation to seek visa
An overseas businessman whose company has been linked to crime in Russia presented an invitation to dine with President Clinton - issued by Democratic Party fund-raisers - when he sought a U.S. visa in 1995.
His visa request was rejected anyway, the State Department told congressional investigators.
Gregori Loutchansky already had dined with Clinton and Vice President Al Gore at a Democratic Party event the year before. He was photographed with Clinton. Loutchansky came to that event as the guest of New York real estate executive Sam Domb, Democratic National Committee spokeswoman Amy Weiss Tobe said Thursday.

INVESTIGATION OF ILLEGAL OR IMPROPER ACTIVITIES IN CONNECTION WITH 1996 FEDERAL ELECTION CAMPAIGNS
In October 1993, Loutchansky attended a Democratic Party dinner as the guest of Sam Domb, a New York real estate developer and DNC donor. The dinner was not held in the White House, but was attended by President Clinton and Vice President Gore. Loutchansky reportedly chatted briefly with the President and had his picture taken.

Ahhhhhmmm...White House Provided DNC With Top-Secret Information
"This was top secret, and it further demonstrates the total politicization of all intelligence and White House operations," said one senior official. "Anything and everything was done in the name of fund-raising."
They used a whole Washington Post article by Bob Woodward!
Sue them too WP! Crash and burn. Yeah Baby

No picture yet but did find this article.

(HOW WE MISS GERALD SOLOMON!)

"Do White House Guests Say Something About the President?

(Look at the last 2 paragraphs in that story - by Norman Grigg).

"Apparently, the DNC's screening procedures are more vigorous than those employed by the White House. According to Senator Christopher Dodd (D-CT), the former general head of the DNC, "You don't do a full field investigation on everyone that sends in a contribution or that's invited to the White House." But Loutchansky was no mere dinner guest:

According to the November 3, 1996 London Sunday Times, "Clinton used their meeting in October 1993 to discuss problems involved in making Ukraine a nuclear-free state. He asked Loutchansky, a Latvian, to act as an intermediary in discussions between America and Ukraine." Is it standard practice in the Clinton White House to discuss matters of nuclear diplomacy with unvetted East European businessmen - including an individual regarded by nearly every significant intelligence and law enforcement agency in the West as a KGB-trained mobster?

Despite the obvious implications of this matter to national security, the Clinton Administration has refused to provide a detailed accounting of its contacts with Loutchansky. In a December 12, 1996 letter to President Clinton, House Rules Committee Chairman Gerald Solomon (R-NY) requested that the President provide "all correspondence and records of meetings you had with Grigori Loutchansky, president of Nordex, and with his friend Sam Domb.... Public accounts have placed both you, Mr. President, and Vice President Gore with both Mr. Loutchansky and Mr. Domb at least once." To date, this request has been ignored."

And now we know that this criminal was / is also involved in trafficking in nuclear material????? And he is a FRIEND OF THE CLINTONS!!!!

Come on, FBI, CIA, NSA - do your duty and arrest the traitors!!!!

Clinton fundraiser with Russian 'mafia' figure prompts questions
A prominent Russian business figure connected by U.S. intelligence to organized crime, weapons trafficking, and nuclear smuggling was invited to at least two fundraising dinners with President Bill Clinton, reports Christopher Ruddy of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. The Democratic National Committee (DNC) invited Grigory Loutchansky, head of the Vienna-based firm Nordex, to a dinner with the president in October 1993, at which the alleged mafioso spoke briefly with Clinton and posed with him for a photo. The Tribune-Review publishes a photo of Clinton and Loutchansky that appeared in a Russian-language newspaper in Latvia. The Pittsburgh paper's report is based on a lengthy investigative story on Loutchansky in the July 8 issue of Time magazine.

A Weekly Opinion Column from Accuracy in Media's Reed Irvine and Joe Goulden
It is easy to see why Loutchansky was delighted to be invited to a fundraising dinner with President Clinton in a Washington museum in October 1993. He told Time magazine in an unpublished interview obtained by the Tribune-Review that he had a private two-minute conversation with the President. In his native Latvia, a newspaper published a story about the "billionaire who likes Soviet youth" meeting with President Clinton, illustrated with a photo showing them chatting. Loutchansky said Sam Domb, a New York real estate operator, invited him to the dinner, and Domb is also in the photo.

I can't find the photo and I can't find which Washington museum the dinner was held at. They may have a photo of their own too. Sorry. I've given part of what I could find. Maybe someone else will have more luck.
