He’s in Camp Clinton. State Democratic Committee Chairman Jay Jacobs donated more than $800,000 to charities aligned with Bill and Hillary Clinton since 2009, a Post review of tax forms shows. The cash is a curious expenditure from Jacobs’ charity, the TLC Starfish Foundation, which boasts on its website that it “partners with charities to provide underserved children the opportunity to participate in a variety of summer camps.” The cash was variously disbursed over the years to the Clinton Global Initiative and the William Clinton Foundation — despite neither organization being involved in summer camps.

In an October 9, 2021 article in the English-language Saudi daily Arab News, Lebanese media figure Baria Alamuddin writes that Hizbullah continues its globe-spanning drug trafficking activities, now using West African countries as major transit states for its drug shipments. She notes that Hizbullah and Syria, both sponsored by Iran, continue to bolster their status as the world's major source of the amphetamine-based drug Captagon. However, since Saudi Arabia banned the import of Lebanese produce earlier this year, Hizbullah has had to divert its Captagon shipments through transit countries to obscure the country of origin. West Africa has become a...

How a Silicon Valley Orgy Led to a $100,000 Check for Elizabeth Warren The new Democrat normal. July 19, 2019 Daniel Greenfield 66 Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism. The path to the $100,000 payment that allowed Senator Elizabeth Warren to access the DNC voter file began in a town near San Francisco with an anonymous man in a bunny suit and some ecstasy. But that’s just because they do things a little differently in San Fran. The Bay Area is home...

Notorious globalist billionaire (George Soros) has (gone on the record) threatening to “take down President Trump” and promising an audience at the World Economic Forum in Davos that the ( New World Order) are making the necessary preparations to completely and utterly obliterate every single Republican plan.Soros is doing this the only way he knows how – by throwing his dirty money around, (sponsoring hate groups, protestors,) and (NGOs), attempting to subvert the course of democracy and eradicate the silent majority. Some of the names on this list will shock you… Abortion groups, open borders advocates, immigrant activists, groups to...

Hedge fund money that was going to Cruz is now going to Hillary. See at the 2:00 mark in the video linked below https://www.yahoo.com/news/wall-street-whistleblower-drops-clinton-111341360.html

This is apparently one of those things that is an open, and yet non-discussed, secret. Several people have queried why they would be getting Ted Cruz campaign donation requests/solicitation directly from Breitbart, and/or getting donation requests from Ted Cruz on Breitbart letterhead. The answer is simple, yet perhaps like me you never knew. The Breitbart Media Group is financially backed and funded by Hedge-fund billionaire Robert Mercer. Mercer was/is the originating financial backer for the Ted Cruz "Keep the Promise" (KtP 1, KtP2 and KtP3) Super-PACs. Mercer is also the financial backing behind Cambridge Analytica. Cambridge Analytica is the receiver...

Republicans hoping to halt Donald J. Trump’s march to their party’s presidential nomination emerged from the weekend’s voting contests newly emboldened by Mr. Trump’s uneven electoral performance and by some nascent signs that he may be peaking with voters. Outside groups are moving to deploy more than $10 million in new attack ads across Florida and millions more in Illinois, casting Mr. Trump as a liberal, a huckster and a draft dodger. Mr. Trump’s reed-thin organization appears to be catching up with him, suggesting he could be at a disadvantage if he is forced into a protracted slog for delegates.

We know that Planned Parenthood receives about half a billion dollars of U.S. taxpayer money each year. Most states also give the state Planned Parenthood affiliates millions of tax dollars annually. Hillary Clinton is the presidential candidate of choice for Planned Parenthood employees, according to campaign financial records released Wednesday. The former secretary of state collected nearly $10,000 from nine individuals who work for the country’s largest abortion provider, including from several high ranking executives at the billion-dollar operation. The first quarter fundraising total nearly matches the amount Clinton received over the course of her previous three political runs. But...

U.S. Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., is getting a bit of heat over campaign contributions to from BP. BP, of course, has become pariah over the Gulf oil spill and its “small people” comments by executives. Friends of the Earth enviro group has listed McCain in its BP Ten list of politicians who have received money from the British oil company, receiving $36,700 during his tenure in office. The group says McCain and others who have received campaign cash from BP to donate the same amounts to Gulf cleanup efforts. The list also includes House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., Sen....

GOP blasts Holden for not returning 'dirty money'By JOHN LATIMER Staff Writer Updated: 03/05/2010 05:58:35 PM EST Pennsylvania's Republican committee is criticizing 17th District Congressman Tim Holden for not returning campaign money he received from embattled New York Congressman Charlie Rangel. On Thursday, the Republican Party of Pennsylvania blasted Holden and five other of the state's congressional Democrats for not returning campaign contributions from Rangel. Last week, the U.S. House of Representatives Ethics Committee rebuked Rangel for taking trips to the Caribbean that were underwritten by corporate sponsors in violation of House gift-giving rules. The committee said it could find...

A Newsmax investigation of Obama/Biden campaign contributors, undertaken in conjunction with a private investigative firm headed by a former CIA operations officer, has identified 118 donors who appear to lack U.S. citizenship. Some of these “red flag” donors work for foreign governments; others have made public statements declaring that they are citizens of Cameroun, Nigeria, Pakistan, Canada, and other countries. A Newsmax sampling of about 3,400 donors also found hundreds more who showed “yellow flags” such as not having used a Social Security number or a known U.S. address. Most U.S.-born citizens are issued Social Security numbers at birth or...

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and former President Clinton report nearly $109.2 million in income for seven years in newly released tax data. The Democratic presidential candidate and her husband paid $33.8 million in taxes from 2000 through 2007. They listed $10.25 million in charitable contributions during that period. Clinton has been under pressure to release her tax returns, especially from rival Barack Obama, who posted his 2000 to 2006 returns on his campaign Web site last week. Neither Obama nor Republican Sen. John McCain have made their 2007 tax returns public, though both say they will this...

With an endorsement of sorts from George Bush, Hillary has now rounded up about all the big names and moneybags in Washington politics. The President predicts she will get the Democratic nomination, and everything seems to be going her way. Never has the adjective "golden" found a more apposite noun to modify than "Ms. Clinton." The woman has always had an affinity for gold. You can trace her appetite for bling back to her Arkansas days, when she was a partner in the Rose Law Firm. Questions arose about her billing clients, which have not yet been satisfactorily answered. Nor...

NEW YORK — Texas oilman Oscar Wyatt Jr. pleaded guilty Monday to charges that he paid millions of dollars to Iraqi officials to illegally win contracts connected to the United Nations oil-for-food program. Wyatt told the federal judge in Manhattan that he agreed in December 2001 to advise others to pay a surcharge into an Iraqi account in Jordan in violation of a program rule calling for no direct payments to Iraq. "I didn't want to waste any more time at 83 years old fooling with this operation," Wyatt said outside court. "The quicker I get it over with the...

Flip Pidot, the go-to-guy on the Hsu scandal, notices that Winkle Paw seems to have vanished. Paw, as you may recall, is a close business associate of Norman Hsu and fellow big-bucks contributor to Democrats. "Paw has served as everything from project analyst to CEO at a handful of Hsu's companies, including Components, Ltd., Next Components, Next Electronics, and CoolPowers (though that last one could've been a poor transcription of the word ‘Components' by a Tom Harkin campaign staffer)." A pretty important potential witness in case with great importance. But apparently he was not being sought. Flip continues: "We also...

The irrepresible Flip at Suitably Flip has hit paydirt on the Norman Hsu Democrat fundraising scandal. Flip has found almost $2.6 million in campaign contributions to a myriad of Democratic candidates, PACs, and interest groups connected to Hsu. He details them on a spreadsheet he's put together at his website Flip asks the big questions "1) where is Hsu -- a convicted con man and fugitive with no documented ability to turn a legitimate buck -- getting these gobs of money, and 2) why is he squandering it on all these Democrats?" Obviously, this looks like a massive money laundering...

A list of the donors who have "bundled" large sums from dozens of individuals to give to Hillary Rodham Clinton's presidential campaign includes several figures who were involved in the 1990s Democratic Party fundraising scandal that tarnished her husband's record. Among them is an Oklahoma oilman who testified in the mid-1990s that the firm he worked for, owned by Democratic fundraisers, sought to curry favor with Bill Clinton's administration by providing payments and a golf club membership to a Cabinet secretary's son. Democrat John Edwards's list of bundlers includes well-known fellow trial lawyer William S. Lerach, who raised $80,000 from...

****This is not the first time the Clintons have taken "dirty money" - Hillary should resign.....She will bring more shame to the office. Name Redacted Dallas, Texas **** To think that this woman had no idea where the money was coming from is crazy. Poughkeepsie **** Clinton must be held accountable....for her many corrupt practices and numerous coverups. Lackawanna

Following Tom DeLay's indictment, then-DCCC Chairman Rahm Emanuel pressured congressional Republicans to return any DeLay-contributions they received. Will Democrats (remember, the open, honest and ethical party) return the cash they received from the now indicted Willliam Jefferson? MajorityAP.com reports that Jefferson gave thousands of dollars to Democrats and based on the standard they set after DeLay's indictment, it's time for them to give up their dirty money.

January 29, 2007 THE EX-PRESIDENCY The Question of Carter’s Cash In which our reporter follows the money CLAUDIA ROSETT Did Jimmy Carter do it for the money? That’s the question making the rounds about Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid, an anti-Israeli screed recently written by the ex-president whose Carter Center has accepted millions in Arab funding. Even in Carter’s long history of post-presidential grandstanding, this book sets fresh standards of irresponsibility. Purporting to give a balanced view of the Palestinian–Israeli conflict, Carter effectively shrugs off such highly germane matters as Palestinian terrorism. The hypocrisies are boundless, and include adoring praise of...
