State Department assists with Hillary’s corruption

Posted on by

Hillary Clinton CORRUPTWe already know that it took three years for the Associated Press — AP — to get records from the US State Department regarding Hillary Clinton’s meetings

The first story, from the NationalReview.com:

Clinton State Department Stonewalled AP for Three Years

by NRO Staff

It was a long wait. Today’s blockbuster report from the Associated Press about Hillary Clinton’s meetings with Clinton Foundation donors during her time as Secretary of State contained the following nugget: “The AP sought Clinton’s calendar and schedules three years ago, but delays led the AP to sue the State Department last year in federal court for those materials and other records.” Three years ago. The long wait was in keeping with a practice of slow-walking such requests for information.

Why was the AP stonewalled?  Because they suspected this:

Over 50% of the persons who met Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State ended up donating to the Clinton Foundation.

See my Thursday post entitled, Hillary’s corrupt “pay to play” — a three year AP story.

The very picture of corruption from Hillary Clinton and the Obama Department of State.

There is an update to this, clearly indicating more corruption and coverups from the Barack Hussein Obama Department of State, in order to assist fellow Demorat presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Let us not forget this cringeworthy video where the State Department shows its embrace of obfuscation and contempt for actual worthwhile questions.  “Am I not speaking English?” you have to admit, is likely one of the all-time greatest journalistic questions.

From the AP:

US: CLINTON CALENDARS WON’T BE RELEASED UNTIL AFTER ELECTION

by Ted Bridis

WASHINGTON (AP) — Seven months after a federal judge ordered the State Department to begin releasing monthly batches of the detailed daily schedules showing meetings by Hillary Clinton during her time as secretary of state, the government told The Associated Press it won’t finish the job before Election Day.

Please note the word “won’t” as opposed to “can’t.”

The department has so far released about half of the schedules. Its lawyers said in a phone conference with the AP’s lawyers that the department now expects to release the last of the detailed schedules around Dec. 30, weeks before the next president is inaugurated.

Perfect.  Just in time to shield Hillary Clinton as much as possible.

Under the present rate, a government attorney working on behalf of the State Department notified the AP’s lawyers, it will take about four and one-half months – or until Dec. 30 – to release all the remaining schedules through the end of Clinton’s term, in February 2013. The government’s notice late Thursday was the first time the State Department has provided the AP with a measure of how many pages were remaining and when it expected to complete the job.

Ladies and gentlemen, you would have to be a brain-addled dolt to not see the corruption that bleeds from Hillary Clinton, from the State Department and the Obama administration which surely is complicit.  All Mr Obama would have to do is make one telephone call in order to light a fire under the State Department.

But he won’t do it, because it’s part and parcel of the partisan cover-up and corruption endemic with Demorats and the Obama administration.

There is only ONE reason why the job won’t be finished until after the election.

Can you imagine a Republican administration or Republican former Secretary of State being able to get away with this in front of the American Media Maggots?

Hillary’s corrupt “pay to play” — a three year AP story

Posted on by

Hillary Clinton Common Good

“Then I’m going to give them to the Clinton Foundation and, specifically, me and Bill.”

What a grand week for Hillary Clinton!

After all, isn’t it said that “any publicity is good publicity”?

Hillary has certain earned her publicity this week.

The phrase “pay to play” was brought back to the forefront this week when AP broke the story — after three years of legal wrangling against the US State Department.

From Yahoo.com via AP:

Many donors to Clinton Foundation met with her at State

WASHINGTON (AP) — More than half the people outside the government who met with Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of state gave money — either personally or through companies or groups — to the Clinton Foundation. It’s an extraordinary proportion indicating her possible ethics challenges if elected president.

At least 85 of 154 people from private interests who met or had phone conversations scheduled with Clinton while she led the State Department donated to her family charity or pledged commitments to its international programs, according to a review of State Department calendars released so far to The Associated Press. Combined, the 85 donors contributed as much as $156 million. At least 40 donated more than $100,000 each, and 20 gave more than $1 million.

Donors who were granted time with Clinton included an internationally known economist who asked for her help as the Bangladesh government pressured him to resign from a nonprofit bank he ran; a Wall Street executive who sought Clinton’s help with a visa problem; and Estee Lauder executives who were listed as meeting with Clinton while her department worked with the firm’s corporate charity to counter gender-based violence in South Africa.

And that is the real story; let it sink in and percolate about in your brain pan:

Over 50% of the persons who met Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State ended up donating to the Clinton Foundation.  Perhaps the better portrayal is this: “donating.”  Air quotes.

Combined, the 85 donors contributed as much as $156 million. At least 40 donated more than $100,000 each, and 20 gave more than $1 million.

The Clinton Foundation has already “taken in” — air quotes — more than $2 billion dollars in funding since its creation in 2000.  In that time, there have been roughly 6,000 “donors” — air quotes — to the foundation.

“There’s a lot of potential conflicts and a lot of potential problems,” said Douglas White, an expert on nonprofits who previously directed Columbia University’s graduate fundraising management program. “The point is, she can’t just walk away from these 6,000 donors.”

This is Orwellian Newspeak for “these people paid cash and they expect something in return.”  You know.  Pay to play.  And they expect some play for their pay.

Here’s a little clincher buried deep in the story.  Read it and interpret it.  I can interpret it no other way than one.

Former senior White House ethics officials said a Clinton administration would have to take careful steps to ensure that past foundation donors would not have the same access as she allowed at the State Department.

What does that say to you?  To me it screams: she did it.  She took money for access to her in her role as Secretary of State.  Corruption.  No other word for it.

Some of Clinton’s most influential visitors donated millions to the Clinton Foundation and to her and her husband’s political coffers.

Now it’s personal money — not just to the foundation, but to the Clintons themselves.

Please read the story in full — a story that took the AP a full three years to acquire because of legal obstacles placed in its way by the State Department.  You know: the same State Department from which Hillary was Secretary.  From the NationalReview.com:

Clinton State Department Stonewalled AP for Three Years

by NRO Staff

It was a long wait. Today’s blockbuster report from the Associated Press about Hillary Clinton’s meetings with Clinton Foundation donors during her time as Secretary of State contained the following nugget: “The AP sought Clinton’s calendar and schedules three years ago, but delays led the AP to sue the State Department last year in federal court for those materials and other records.” Three years ago. The long wait was in keeping with a practice of slow-walking such requests for information.

As in: the State Department did its level best to block, stall and obfuscate the acquisition of the truth about Hillary Rodham Clinton by the Associated Press.

Let’s see; this past week’s Hillary publicity included:

Ah yes.  What a wonderful, engaging and revelatory week it was for Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Hillary LIES AGAIN: 15K MORE emails found

Posted on by

Hillary Clinton LIESYes yes, fine, go ahead, be like me.

Shake your head and wonder just where this nation is going — when a politician such as Hillary Rodham Clinton can lie to the American people, violate laws, and the Director of the FBI, James Comey, prefers no charges whatsoever.

Hillary lies about lying.  She lied to Patricia Smith, the mother of a Benghazi victim.  Then she lies about former Secretary of State Colin Powell.

For a refresher:

Judicial Watch released 44 additional Hillary email chains on August 10th:

Then this, from the WashingtonPost.com:

FBI uncovers 14,900 more documents in Clinton email probe

by Spencer S. Hsu

The FBI’s year-long investigation of Hillary Clinton’s private email server uncovered 14,900 emails and documents from her time as secretary of state that had not been disclosed by her attorneys, and a federal judge on Monday pressed the State Department to begin releasing emails sooner than mid-October as it planned.

Justice Department lawyers said last week that the State Department would review and turn over Clinton’s work-related emails to a conservative legal group. The records are among “tens of thousands” of documents found by the FBI in its probe and turned over to the State Department, Justice Department attorney Lisa Ann Olson said Monday in court.

The 14,900 Clinton documents are nearly 50 percent more than the roughly 30,000 emails that Clinton’s lawyers deemed work-related and returned to the department in December 2014.

Read that again: “The 14,900 Clinton documents are nearly 50 percent more than the roughly 30,000 emails that Clinton’s lawyers deemed work-related and returned to the department in December 2014.”

This might be a good time to go back above and play that first video from Hillary Clinton again.  I could have sworn she said she turned everything in.

I probably just misheard her misspeak.

Note to Spencer Hsu: check the lug-nuts on your car every day, buddy.  Buying a mirror on a pole in order to look under your vehicle probably wouldn’t be a bad idea either, my friend.

Clinton LIES AGAIN: this time about Colin Powell

Posted on by

Hillary Clinton LIESIt’s no secret that Hillary Clinton has said that having a personal server was acceptable because 1) former Secretary of State under Bush — Colin Powell — had a private server as well and, 2) Colin Powell told her to do so.

Because Colin Powell is black, that makes it acceptable.

From, of all places, People.com:

Colin Powell Says Hillary Clinton’s ‘People Have Been Trying to Pin’ Email Scandal on Him

by Sara Nathan and Jeff Nelson

Hillary Clinton‘s email scandal continues.

On Friday, the New York Times reported that Clinton told FBI officials former Secretary of State Colin Powell had advised her to use a personal email account while she held the Secretary of State office herself.

“Her people have been trying to pin it on me,” Powell, 79, told PEOPLE Saturday night at the Apollo in the Hamptons 2016 Night of Legends fête in East Hampton, New York.

Wait for it.

“The truth is, she was using [the private email server] for a year before I sent her a memo telling her what I did,” Powell added.

Chris Cillizza of the Washington Post wrote:

The attempt to — again — equate what Powell did with what Clinton did is yet more evidence that either the candidate, her senior advisers or both simply don’t get it. No, Clinton wasn’t indicted by the Justice Department for her email setup. But she was badly reprimanded by FBI Director James Comey for her email practices; it was an unequivocal condemnation of her conduct in relation to her approach to electronic communications while serving as the country’s top diplomat.

For whatever reason — and despite the fact that Clinton has said on several occasions that she knows she made a mistake — she seems incapable of accepting that responsibility and moving on. No secretary of state — up to and including Colin Powell — handled their email setup like Clinton. That’s a fact.

That is a fact.

Exposed: gag order on FBI agents in re Hillary

Posted on by

Hillary Clinton FBI InvestigatedFrom FoxNews.com:

‘Gag’ order: FBI confirms special secrecy agreements for agents in Clinton email probe

by Catherine Herridge & Pamela K. Browne

The FBI has confirmed to a senior Republican senator that agents were sworn to secrecy — and subject to lie detector tests — in the Hillary Clinton email probe, an extensive measure one former agent said could have a “chilling effect.”

A July 1 letter sent by a senior deputy to FBI Director James Comey to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, detailed the restrictions on agents. The letter, reviewed by Fox News, confirmed agents signed a “Case Briefing Acknowledgement” which says the disclosure of information is “strictly prohibited” without prior approval, and those who sign are subject to lie detector tests.

“The purpose of this form is to maintain an official record of persons knowledgeable of a highly sensitive Federal Bureau of Investigation counterintelligence investigation,” the agreement attached to the Grassley letter reads, “….I (FBI agent) also understand that, due to the nature and sensitivity of this investigation, compliance with these restrictions may be subject to verification by polygraph examination.”

In other words: the true nature of what was revealed shall never come out, agents.

A “chilling effect” is being kind.  It is a “suppression of freedom” effect.

When something like this occurs, there is always a reason.  What, at your greatest reach, do you possible suppose might be one reason for this?

A gold star for those of you who said “because Hillary and the FBI via the DOJ via Loretta Lynch via Barack Hussein Obama have cut a deal to ensure that the truth is not revealed regarding the investigation of Hillary Clinton’s emails.”  Plain and simple.

It doesn’t take a rocket surgeon to suss that one out.  THE.  FIX.  WAS.  IN.

Hillary Clinton LawsDemorats, Leftists and the like all bleat “this is much ado about nothing.”  I say: REVERSE THE ROLES.  A Republican did the same things Hillary did.  “Off with their head” would be the rallying cry from the American Media Maggots and everyone on the Left as well as Demorats.  There would be no time limit and no minimization.

“Silly wabbit.  Rules are for Proles, Groundlings, Serfs and Commoners.”
