Designed by the criminal architects Bill and Hillary Clinton they have agreed on mutual destruction, many decades ago. Yes, Hillary and Bill Clinton have enough evidence on each other to put their partners in prison for life. Over the decades their paths have not changed as they accumulate power, influence, wealth and evidence against each other. The Clinton Foundation is asleep now because Hillary Clinton wants to become president of the United States but that trapped energy of wealth will be unleashed against enemies of the Clintons, once the voting is completed. Hounded by law enforcement, including the FBI the Clintons living in their invisible empire look at each other knowing their deal is in place, arguing little the internal din of thieves has gained many members. Learn about the history of Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton and the worldwide glittering Clinton Foundation and their quivering sexual and wealth desires.
Why does Hillary Clinton live with a rapist, some may ask?
Hillary Clinton had a list of 26 women, positive Bill had adulterous affairs with or who he had sexually assaulted. In the view of Hillary,
these women were, at various times,
“bitches,”
“whores,”
“sluts,”
and, if they were a threat to talk,
they were to be “destroyed.”
Why does Hillary Clinton pretend she is the champion of Women, abused women, raped women, sexually assaulted women, poor women, women that want to kill their babies, by abortion. Was Hillary Rodham Clinton Hillary Clinton just another rape sexual assault victim of Bill Clinton like the others? How has Bill Clinton got away from the law over the last 40 years? Why has Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton not been failed for crimes and criminal activities for decades? Who knows the truth about Hillary and Bill Clinton?
Hillary Rodham Clinton understands the mental instability of impeached X-President Bill Clinton - the husband. The charges are very clear, Bill Clinton loves to have sex with women, he doesn't mind if they want to or not. Everybody knows the story of the Monica Lewinsky Blue Dress and Bill Clinton's impeachment but now Americans are forced to ask the question; Why does Hillary Clinton live with a rapist.
Hillary
Clinton is a progressive socialist and believes in the state and that the state
should control everything, including you, from a centralized government like in
Syria, Russian, North Korea, Cuba and other places. Hillary Clinton believes that your money
belongs to the state and she should have total control. Bill Clinton believes the same thing and he
wants back inside the White House. Donald Trump can stop the Clinton's and help
you.
Women
have been charging Bill Clinton with sexual assault since his days as a Rhodes
Scholar at Oxford 30 years ago. When he
left Oxford they told him not to come back so he went to Yale and continued his
shadow rapes. This is the man that let
Americans die in Africa (Black Hawk Down) just like his wife did in (Benghazi)
while Hillary Clinton sells secrets and favors for cash money donations to the
Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation.
This tradition of bait and switch, is the story of a rapist. Say one thing and then jump your
victims.
Bill
Clinton has a black child (Danny) with Bobbie Ann Williams, now living in South
America and some say now lives in Australia,
after receiving a suitcase full of cash from Clinton operatives. She
started talking to the press and then shut up after receiving the cash payment
from the Clinton's. Bill and Hillary
understand how to bribe people and to accept bribes, that's how the Russians
got their hands on U.S. mined uranium for Syria's nuclear weapons program, make
Hillary Clinton Richer....
Bill
Clinton is a drug and an abuser of women, Hillary Clinton knows this and also
understands that people still love him.
The people that support Hillary and Bill Clinton are also criminals as
all these facts are public record, regardless, radical liberals socialists and
communists support Bill and Hillary Clinton.
A
continuing investigation into the President's questionable sexual history
reveal incidents that go back as far as Clinton's college days, with more than
a dozen women claiming his sexual appetites leave little room for the word
''no.'' Bill and Hillary know that they
can crush anybody at any time, so they do what they want and when they
want. The Clinton's are not afraid of
you, your the next chicken to boil in their pot.
Juanita
Broaddrick, an Arkansas nursing home operator, told NBC's Lisa Myers five weeks
ago she was raped by Clinton. NBC shelved the interview, saying they were
confirming all parts of the story, but finally aired it Wednesday night.
Broaddrick
finally took her story to The Wall Street Journal, which published her account
of the brutal rape at the hands of the future President, followed by The
Washington Post and some other publications.
But
Capitol Hill Blue has confirmed that Broaddrick's story is only one account of
many attempted and actual sexual assaults by Clinton that go back 30 years.
Among the other incidents:
Eileen
Wellstone, 19-year-old English woman who said Clinton sexually assaulted her
after she met him at a pub near the Oxford where the future President was a
student in 1969. A retired State Department employee, who asked not to be
identified, confirmed that he spoke with the family of the girl and filed a
report with his superiors. Clinton admitted having sex with the girl, but
claimed it was consensual. The victim's family declined to pursue the case;
In
1972, a 22-year-old woman told campus police at Yale University that she was
sexually assaulted by Clinton, a law student at the college. No charges were
filed, but retired campus policemen contacted by Capitol Hill Blue confirmed
the incident. The woman, tracked down by Capitol Hill Bluelast week, confirmed
the incident, but declined to discuss it further and would not give permission
to use her nam
In
1974, a female student at the University of Arkansas complained that then-law
school instructor Bill Clinton tried to prevent her from leaving his office
during a conference. She said he groped her and forced his hand inside her
blouse. She complained to her faculty advisor who confronted Clinton, but
Clinton claimed the student ''came on'' to him.
The
student left the school shortly after the incident. Reached at her home in
Texas, the former student confirmed the incident, but declined to go on the
record with her account. Several former students at the University have
confirmed the incident in confidential interviews and said there were other
reports of Clinton attempting to force himself on female students;
Broaddrick,
a volunteer in Clinton's gubernatorial campaign, said he raped her in 1978.
Mrs. Broaddrick suffered a bruised and torn lip, which she said she suffered
when Clinton bit her during the rape;
From
1978-1980, during Clinton's first term as governor of Arkansas, state troopers
assigned to protect the governor were aware of at least seven complaints from
women who said Clinton forced, or attempted to force, himself on them sexually.
One
retired state trooper said in an interview that the common joke among those
assigned to protect Clinton was "who's next?". One former state
trooper said other troopers would often escort women to the governor's hotel
room after political events, often more than one an evening;
Carolyn
Moffet, a legal secretary in Little Rock in 1979, said she met then-governor
Clinton at a political fundraiser and shortly thereafter received an invitation
to meet the governor in his hotel room. "I was escorted there by a state
trooper. When I went in, he was sitting on a couch, wearing only an undershirt.
He pointed at his penis and told me to suck it. I told him I didn't even do
that for my boyfriend and he got mad, grabbed my head and shoved it into his
lap. I pulled away from him and ran out of the room."
Elizabeth
Ward, the Miss Arkansas who won the Miss America crown in 1982, told friends
she was forced by Clinton to have sex with him shortly after she won her state
crown. Last year, Ward, who is now married with the last name of Gracen (from
her first marriage), told an interviewer she did have sex with Clinton but said
it was consensual. Close friends of Ward, however, say she still maintains
privately that Clinton forced himself on her.
Paula
Corbin, an Arkansas state worker, filed a sexual harassment case against
Clinton after an encounter in a Little Rock hotel room where the then-governor
exposed himself and demanded oral sex. Clinton settled the case with Jones
recently with an $850,000 cash payment.
Sandra
Allen James, a former Washington, DC, political fundraiser says Presidential
candidate-to-be Clinton invited her to his hotel room during a political trip
to the nation's capital in 1991, pinned her against the wall and stuck his hand
up her dress. She says she screamed loud enough for the Arkansas State Trooper
stationed outside the hotel suite to bang on the door and ask if everything was
all right, at which point Clinton released her and she fled the room.
When she reported the incident to her boss, he advised her to keep her mouth shut if she wanted to keep working. Miss James has since married and left Washington. Reached at her home last week, the former Miss James said she later learned that other women suffered the same fate at Clinton's hands when he was in Washington during his Presidential run.

Christy
Zercher, a flight attendant on Clinton's leased campaign plane in 1992, says
Presidential candidate Clinton exposed himself to her, grabbed her breasts and
made explicit remarks about oral sex. A video shot on board the plane by ABC
News shows an obviously inebriated Clinton with his hand between another young
flight attendant's legs. Zercher said later in an interview that White House
attorney Bruce Lindsey tried to pressure her into not going public about the
assault.
Kathleen
Willey, a White House volunteer, reported that Clinton grabbed her, fondled her
breast and pressed her hand against his genitals during an Oval Office meeting
in November, 1993. Willey, who told her story in a 60 Minutes interview, became
a target of a White House-directed smear campaign after she went public.
In
an interview with Capitol Hill Blue, the retired State Department employee said
he believed the story Miss Wellstone, the young English woman who said Clinton
raped her in 1969.
''There
was no doubt in my mind that this young woman had suffered severe emotional
trauma,'' he said. ''But we were under tremendous pressure to avoid the
embarrassment of having a Rhodes Scholar charged with rape. I filed a report
with my superiors and that was the last I heard of it.''
Miss
Wellstone, who is now married and lives near London, confirmed the incident
when contacted this week, but refused to discuss the matter further. She said
she would not go public with further details of the attack. Afterwards, she
changed her phone number and hired a barrister who warned a reporter to stay
away from his client.
In
his book, Unlimited Access, former FBI agent Gary Aldrich reported that Clinton
left Oxford University for a "European Tour" in 1969 and was told by
University officials that he was no longer welcome there. Aldrich said
Clinton's academic record at Oxford was lackluster. Clinton later accepted a
scholarship for Yale Law School and did not complete his studies at Oxford.
The
State Department official who investigated the incident said Clinton's
interests appeared to be drinking, drugs and sex, not studies.
"I
came away from the incident with the clear impression that this was a young man
who was there to party, not study," he said.
Oxford
officials refused comment. The State Department also refused to comment on the
incident. A Freedom of Information request filed by Capitol Hill Blue failed to
turn up any records of the incident.
Capitol
Hill Blue also spoke with the former Miss James, the Washington fundraiser who
confirmed the encounter with Clinton at the Four Seasons Hotel in Washington,
but first said she would not appear publicly because anyone who does so is
destroyed by the Clinton White House.
''My
husband and children deserve better than that,'' she said when first contacted
two weeks ago.
After reading the Broaddrick story Friday, however, she called back and gave permission to use her maiden name, but said she had no intention of pursuing the matter.
After reading the Broaddrick story Friday, however, she called back and gave permission to use her maiden name, but said she had no intention of pursuing the matter.
"I
wasn't raped, but I was trapped in a hotel room for a brief moment by a boorish
man," she said. "I got away. He tried calling me several times after
that, but I didn't take his phone calls. Then he stopped. I guess he moved
on."
But
Miss James also retreated from public view this week after other news
organizations contacted her.
The
former Miss Moffet, the legal secretary who says Clinton tried to force her
into oral sex in 1979, has since married and left the state. She says that when
she told her boyfriend, who was a lawyer and supporter of Clinton, about the
incident, he told her to keep her mouth shut.
"He
said that people who crossed the governor usually regretted it and that if I
knew what was good for me I'd forget that it ever happened," she said.
"I haven't forgotten it. You don't forget crude men like that."
Like
two other women, the former Miss Moffet declined further interviews. A neighbor
said she had received threatening phone calls.
The
other encounters were confirmed with more than 30 interviews with retired
Arkansas state employees, former state troopers and former Yale and University
of Arkansas students. Like others, they refused to go public because of fears
of retaliation from the Clinton White House.
Likewise,
the mainstream media has shied away from the Broaddrick story. Initially, only
The Drudge Report and other Internet news sites have actively pursued it. Since
initial publication of this story, a few mainstream media outlets have
expressed interest in interviewing the women.
The
White House did not return calls for comment. White House attorney David
Kendall has issued a public denial of the Broaddrick rape.
Take,
for example, Hillary’s recent pledge, as reported by Ruby Cramer, to crack down
on campus rape and her encouraging words to sexual assault survivors: “Don’t
let anyone silence your voice. You have the right to be heard … to be believed.
And we’re with you.”
In fact, we argue, Hillary Clinton has enabled rape and denigrated sex victims.
In fact, we argue, Hillary Clinton has enabled rape and denigrated sex victims.
Ironically,
Bill Clinton’s first alleged rape was of a 19-year-old coed named Eileen
Wellstone. We believe that he was not prosecuted because the State Department
did not want a Rhodes Scholar charged with rape.
Hillary
is the woman who has been in an arguably sham marriage and a cynical political
union with Bill Clinton for 41 years. Hillary was the one who was hiring
private detectives, such as Ivan Duda, since 1982 so that she could get the
names and addresses of Bill’s girlfriends so that she could “get rid of all
these bitches he’s seeing.”
This
is the same woman who was allegedly fully aware of Bill’s 1978 alleged rape of
campaign volunteer Juanita Broaddrick in real time. As we reveal in The
Clintons’ War on Women, according to former Clinton insider Larry Nichols,
Hillary came running into the Clinton HQ and said, “You won’t believe what the
motherf___r [Bill] just did. He tried to rape some bitch!” That blockbuster quote is just one of many
things in the book that the MSM has carefully tried to keep out of your
eyesight.
The
book is about Bill Clinton’s long history of allegedly raping and sexually
assaulting women and Hillary’s long history of allegedly psychologically raping
these women in the aftermath in order to silence them lest they interfere with
the Clintons’ rise to power.
Bill
Clinton supposedly did not just rape Juanita; he allegedly, according to
Candice Jackson in Their Lives: The Women Targeted By The Clinton Machine, bit
and nearly tore off her upper lip and raped her a second time as she lay frozen
on the bed. Bill’s alleged words before he began again were, “My God, I can do
it again.”
Hillary
believes that rape and sexual assault victims have rights. That is the “right
to remain silent,” especially if Bill has allegedly assaulted you, because
anything you say “can and will be used against you” by Hillary and Bill
Clinton.
A few weeks after Bill had allegedly raped and bitten Juanita, Hillary encountered Juanita at a campaign event in the home of a Clinton supporter. Hillary, in cover-up mode, had only one concern, according to Jaunita: keeping Broaddrick quiet during Bill’s race for the governorship in 1978. Juanita described the scene in a 2000 open letter to Hillary:

As
soon as you entered the room, you came directly to me and grabbed my hand. Do
you remember how you thanked me, saying “we want to thank you for everything
that you do for Bill.” At that point, I was pretty shaken and started to walk
off. Remember how you kept a tight grip on my hand and drew closer to me? You
repeated your statement, but this time with a coldness and look that I have
seen many times on television in the last eight years. You said, “Everything
you do for Bill.” You then released your grip and I said nothing and left the gathering.
In
other words: keep quiet about what Bill did to you!
By
1992, according to Gail Sheehy in the book Hillary’s Choice, cuckold Hillary
and Betsey Wright had a list of 26 women they were positive Bill had adulterous
affairs with or who he had sexually assaulted. In the view of Hillary, these
women were, at various times, “bitches,” “whores,” “sluts,” and, if they were a
threat to talk, they were to be “destroyed.”
Years
later, when journalist Melanie Morgan was quizzing him about his role in the
1997 terror campaign to silence Clinton victim Kathleen Willey, private
detective Jack Palladino’s alleged cocky answer (though he denies ever making
the statement) was, “The only regret that I had about the whole thing was that
Hillary did not pay me in a timely fashion… I saved Hillary Clinton’s ass.
You’d think she’d be more grateful to me.”

MEMORIES
THE
REAL CLINTON story is a fascinating one of a mobbed-up politician from a
drug-infested southern state in the control of the Dixie Mafia, a far more
deadly institution than its New York counterpart. Little of this came through
because the media immediately created a mythological Bill and Hillary saga that
overwhelmed the facts. What follows are excerpts from our timeline of
interesting and little known events prior to Clinton taking office as
president. It gives a sense of the real story that voters were denied:
1950s
When
Bill Clinton is 7, his family moves from Hope, Arkansas, to the long-time mob
resort of Hot Springs, AR. Here Al Capone is said to have had permanent rights
to suite 443 of the Arlington Hotel.
Clinton's stepfather is a gun-brandishing
alcoholic who loses his Buick franchise through mismanagement and his own
pilfering. He physically abuses his family, including the young Bill. His
mother is a heavy gambler with mob ties.
According
to FBI and local police officials, his Uncle Raymond -- to whom young Bill
turns for wisdom and support -- is a colorful car dealer, slot machine owner
and gambling operator, who thrives (except when his house is firebombed) on the
fault line of criminality.
Virginia
Kelly, Clinton's mother: "Hot Springs was so different. We had wide-open
gambling, for one thing, and it was so wide open that it never occurred to me
that it was illegal - it really didn't - until it came to a vote about whether
we were going to legalize gambling or not. I never was so shocked."
1960s
A
federal investigation concludes that Hot Springs has the largest illegal
gambling operations in the United States.
Clinton
goes to Georgetown University where he finds a mentor in Professor Carroll
Quigley. Quigley writes: "That the two political parties should represent
opposed ideals and policies. . . is a foolish idea.
Instead,
the two parties should be almost identical . . .The policies that are vital and
necessary for America are no longer subjects of significant disagreement, but
are disputable only in detail, procedure, priority, or method."
Bill
Clinton, according to several agency sources interviewed by biographer Roger
Morris, works as a CIA informer while briefly and erratically a Rhodes Scholar
in England.
Although
without visible means of support, he travels around Europe and the Soviet
Union, staying at the ritziest hotel in Moscow.
During
this period the US government is using well educated assets such as Clinton as
part of Operation Chaos, a major attempt to break student resistance to the war
and the draft. According to former White House FBI agent Gary Aldrich Clinton
is told by Oxford officials that he is no longer welcome there.
After
becoming involved in politics, Wellesley graduate Hillary Rodham orders her
senior thesis sealed from public view.
1974
27
year old Clinton, only months out of Yale Law School, is back in Arkansas eager
to run for Congress.
Roger
Morris writes later, "A relative unknown, he faces an imposing field of
rivals in the Democratic primary, and beyond, in the general election, a
powerful Republican incumbent. . .
It begins with a quiet meeting at his mother's
house in Hot Springs. Around the kitchen table, as Virginia Clinton will describe
the scene, avid young Billy meets with two of his most crucial early backers --
uncle Raymond G. Clinton, a prosperous local Buick dealer, and family friend
and wealthy businessman Gabe Crawford. As they talk, Mr. Crawford offers the
candidate unlimited use of his private plane, and uncle Raymond not only
provides several houses around the district to serve as campaign headquarters,
but will secure a $10,000 loan to Bill from the First National Bank of Hot
Springs - an amount then equal to the yearly income of many Arkansas families.
. .
No
mere businessman with a spare plane, Gabe Crawford presided over a backroom
bookie operation that was one of Hot Springs' most lucrative criminal
enterprises.
And
the inimitable uncle Raymond - who had also played a pivotal behind-the-scenes
role in keeping young Bill out of the Vietnam draft - was far more than an auto
dealer.
In
the nationally prominent fount of vice and corruption that was Hot Springs from
the 1920s to the 1980s (its barely concealed casinos generated more income than
Las Vegas well into the 1960s), the uncle's Buick agency and other businesses
and real estate were widely thought to be facades for illegal gambling, drug
money laundering and other ventures, in which Raymond was a partner.
He
was a minion of the organized crime overlord who controlled the American Middle
South for decades, New Orleans boss Carlos Marcello or "Mafia
Kingfish" as his biographer John Davis called him.
1976
Two
Indonesian billionaires come to Arkansas. Mochtar Riady and Liem Sioe Liong are
close to Suharto. Riady is looking for an American bank to buy. Finds Jackson
Stephens with whom he forms Stephens Finance. Stephens will broker the arrival
of BCCI to this country and steer BCCI's founder, Hassan Abedi, to Bert Lance.
1977
Apparently
because of pressure from Indonesia, Riady withdraws his bid to buy Lance's 30%
share of the National Bank of Georgia. Instead, a BCCI front man buys the
shares and Abedi moves to secretly take over Financial General -
later
First American Bankshares --
later
the subject of the only BCCI-connected scandal to be prosecuted in the US.
1978
Clinton
is elected governor. The Clintons and McDougals buy land in the Ozarks for
$203,000 with mostly borrowed funds. The Clintons get 50% interest with no cash
down.
The
203 acre plot, known as Whitewater, is fifty miles from the nearest grocery
store.
The Washington Post will report later that
some purchasers of lots, many of them retirees, "put up houses or cabins,
others slept in vans or tents, hoping to be able to live off the land."
More than half of the purchasers will lose their plots thanks to the sleazy
form of financing used.
Two
months after commencing the Whitewater scam, Hillary Clinton invests $1,000 in
cattle futures.
Within
a few days she has a $5,000 profit.
Before
bailing out she earns nearly $100,000 on her investment.
Many
years later, several economists will calculate that the chances of earning such
returns legally were one in 250 million.
Bill
Clinton's mother hangs out at the race track with mobsters and other local
figures, including Dan Lasater who breeds race horses in Kentucky and Florida
and has a box at the track next to hers. Mrs. Clinton introduces Lasater to
Roger Clinton.
Roger
Clinton develops a four-gram a day cocaine habit, getting his stuff from New
York and Medellin suppliers, based (as one middleman will later testify) on
"who his brother was." Sharlene Wilson is one of his dealers. Dan
Lasater will give Roger work and loan him $8,000 to pay off a drug debt.
1979
Sharlene
Wilson will testify in a 1990 federal drug probe that she began selling cocaine
to Roger Clinton as early as this year. She will also tell reporters that she
sold two grams of cocaine to Clinton's brother at the Little Rock nightclub Le
Bistro, then witnessed Bill Clinton consume the drug.
"I
watched Bill Clinton lean up against a brick wall," Wilson reveals to the
London Telegraph's Ambrose Evans-Pritchard in 1995. "He was so messed up
that night, he slid down the wall into a garbage can and just sat there like a
complete idiot." Drug prosecutor Jean Duffey will say that she has no
doubt that Wilson was telling the truth.
Arkansas
becomes a major center of gun-running, drugs and money laundering. The IRS
warns other law enforcement agencies of the state's "enticing
climate." According to Clinton biographer Roger Morris, operatives go into
banks with duffel bags full of cash, which bank officers then distribute to
tellers in sums under $10,000 so they don't have to report the transaction.
Sharlene
Wilson, according to investigative reporter Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, flies
cocaine from Mena to a pickup point in Texas. Other drugs, she and others say,
are stuffed into chickens for shipping around the country. Wilson also serves
as "the lady with the snow" at "toga parties" attended, she
reports, by Bill Clinton.
Investor's
Business Daily would later write, "Sally Perdue, a former Miss Arkansas
and Little Rock talk show host who said she had an affair with then-Gov.
Clinton in 1983, told the London Sunday Telegraph that he once came over to her
house with a bag full of cocaine. "He had all the equipment laid out, like
a real pro."
In
the 1990s, Genifer Flowers tells Sean Hannity's WABC talk radio show:
"Bill clearly let me know that he did cocaine. And I know people that knew
he did cocaine. He did tell me that when he would use a substantial amount of
cocaine that his head would itch so badly that he would become self conscious
at parties where he was doing this. Because all he wanted to do while people
were talking to him is stand around and scratch his head. ...."
Two
Arkansas state troopers will swear under oath that they have seen Clinton
"under the influence" of drugs when he was governor.
Hillary
Clinton makes a $44,000 profit on a $2,000 investment in a cellular phone
franchise deal that involves taking advantage of the FCC's preference for
locals, minorities and women.
The
franchise is almost immediately flipped to the cellular giant, McCaw.
A
drug pilot brings a Cessna 210 full of cocaine into eastern Arkansas where he
is met by his pick-up: a state trooper in a marked police car.
"Arkansas," the pilot will recall years later, "was a very good
place to load and unload."
According
to his wife, security operative Jerry Parks delivers large sums of money from
Mena airport to Vince Foster at a K-Mart parking lot. Mrs. Parks discovers this
when she opens her car trunk one day and finds so much cash that she has to sit
on the trunk to close it again. She asks her husband whether he is dealing
drugs, and he allegedly explains that Foster paid him $1,000 for each trip he
took to Mena.
Parks
said he didn't "know what they were doing, and he didn't care to know.
He
told me to forget what I'd seen.". . . .Later Ambrose Evans-Pritchard will
write, "Foster was using him as a kind of operative to collect sensitive
information on things and do sensitive jobs.
Some
of this appears to have been done on behalf of Hillary Clinton. . . Foster told
him that Hillary wanted it done. Now, my understanding . . . is that she wanted
to know how vulnerable he would be in a presidential race on the question of --
how shall I put it? -- his appetites."
In
1993, on the night before Vince Foster's death, Parks' wife claims she hears a
heated conversation between her husband and Foster in which Parks says,
"You
can't give Hillary those files, they've got my name all over them." Parks
will be gunned down two months after Foster's death in his car outside of
Little Rock.
Parks
is shot through the rear window of his car and shot three more times, thru the
side window, with a 9mm pistol.
Parks
was running American Contract Services, the business which supplied bodyguards
for Clinton during his presidential campaign and the following transition. Bill
Clinton still owed him $81,000. Parks had collected detailed data on Clinton's
sexual escapades, including pictures and dates. Mrs. Pariks claims federal
agents subsequently removed files and computer.
1980
Bill
Clinton loses re-election as governor.
He
will win two years later.
Larry
Nichols will tell the George Putman Show in 1998 that he had met with Clinton
and Jackson Stephen's brother Witt and that Witt had told Clinton that the Stephens
were ready to back him for another run at the governorship but that he had to
"dry out on the white stuff."
There
are reports that following his loss,
Clinton
ended up in the hospital for a drug overdose.
Journalist
R. Emmett Tyrrell later asked emergency room workers at the University of
Arkansas Medical Center if they could confirm the incident. He didn't get a
flat "no" from the hospital staff.
One
nurse said, "I can't talk about that." Another said she feared for
her life if she spoke of the matter.
Newsmax
will report: "Dr. Sam Houston, a respected Little Rock physician and once
a doctor for Hillary's cantankerous father, Hugh Rodham, says it is well known
in Little Rock medical circles that Clinton was brought to a Little Rock
hospital for emergency treatment for an apparent cocaine overdose.
According
to Houston, who told us he spoke to someone intimately familiar with the
details of what happened that night, Clinton arrived at the hospital with the
aid of a state trooper. Hillary Clinton had been notified by phone and had
instructed the hospital staff that Clinton's personal physician would be
arriving soon. When Mrs. Clinton arrived, she told both of the resident
physicians on duty that night that they would never practice medicine in the
United States if word leaked out about Clinton's drug problem. Reportedly, she
pinned one of the doctors up against the wall, both hands pressed against his
shoulders, as she gave her dire warning."
According
to Jim McDougal's later account, he and Henry Hamilton, "developed a
system to pass money to Clinton," then governor of Arkansas. "I
considered it just another way of helping to take care of Bill. A contractor
agreed to pad my monthly construction bill by $2,000. The contractor put the
figure on his invoice as a cost for gravel or culvert work. After I paid the
full amount ... the contractor reimbursed me the $2,000.
I
turned the money over to Henry to give to Clinton. Once, after I handed Henry
his latest consignment of 20 hundred-dollar bills to relay to the governor's
office, he turned the bills over and over in one hand, like a magician. Henry
grinned. `You know,' he said, `Caesar had his Brutus, Charles the First had
Cromwell. Clinton could profit from these examples if he crosses us.'"
1981
Hillary
Clinton writes Jim McDougal: "If Reaganomics works at all, Whitewater
could become the Western Hemisphere's Mecca."
Major
drug trafficker Barry Seal, under pressure from the Louisiana cops, relocates
his operations to Mena, Arkansas.
Seal
is importing as much as 1,000 pounds of cocaine a month from Colombia according
to Arkansas law enforcement officials.
He
will claim to have made more than $50 million out of his operations.
As
an informant Seal testified that in 1980-81, before moving his operation to
Arkansas, he made approximately 60 trips to Central America and brought back
18,000 kilograms.
According
to the Telegraph's Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, "Larry Patterson, an Arkansas
state trooper, testified under oath that there were 'large quantities of drugs
being flown into the Mena airport, large quantities of money, large quantities
of guns.' The subject was discussed repeatedly in Clinton's presence by state
troopers working on his security detail, he alleged. Patterson said the
governor 'had very little comment to make; he was just listening to what was
being said.'"
Mena
state police investigator Russell Welch will later describe the airport,
pointing to one hanger he says is owned by a man who "doesn't exist in
history back past a safe house in Baltimore in 1972." Another is owned by
someone who "smuggled heroin through Laos back in the seventies."
Still another is "owned by a guy who just went bankrupt. So what's he do?
Flies to Europe for more money." Welch points to a half dozen Fokker
aircraft parked on an apron, noting that "the DEA's been tracking those
planes back and forth to Columbia for a while now."
1982
A
DEA report uncovered by Ambrose Evans-Pritchard will cite an informant claiming
that a famous Arkansas figure and backer of Clinton "smuggles cocaine from
Colombia, South America, inside race horses to Hot Springs."
IRS
agent William Duncan and an Arkansas State Police investigator take their
evidence concerning drug trafficking in Mena to US Attorney Asa Hutchinson.
They
ask for 20 witnesses to be subpoenaed before the grand jury.
Hutchinson
chooses only three.
According
to reporter Mara Leveritt, "The three appeared before the grand jury, but
afterwards, two of them also expressed surprise at how their questioning was
handled.
One,
a secretary at Rich Mountain Aviation, had given Duncan sworn statements about
money laundering at the company, transcripts of which Duncan had provided to
Hutchinson.
But
when the woman left the jury room, she complained that Hutchinson had asked her
nothing about the crime or the sworn statements she'd given to Duncan.
As
Duncan later testified, 'She basically said that she was allowed to give her
name, address, position, and not much else.'
The
other angry witness was a banker who had, in Duncan's words, 'provided a
significant amount of evidence relating to the money-laundering operation.'
According to Duncan, he, too, emerged from the jury room complaining 'that he
was not allowed to provide the evidence that he wanted to provide to the grand
jury.'"
Financial
General changes its name to First American and Clark Clifford is appointed
chairman. BCCI fronts begin acquiring controlling interest in banks and other
American financial institutions. In Arkansas, Jim McDougal purchases Madison
Guaranty Savings & Loan.
1983
According
to a later account in the Tampa Tribune, planes flying drugs into Mena in
coolers marked "medical supplies" are met by several people close to
then-Governor Bill Clinton.
1984
Stevens
and Riady buy a banking firm and change its name to Worthern Bank with Riady's
28-year-old son James as president. Other Worthen co-owners will eventually
include BCCI investor Abdullah Taha Bakhish.
Foreshadowing
future Wall Street interest in Clinton, Goldman Sachs, Payne Webber, Salomon Brothers
and Merrill Lynch all show up as financial backers of the governor. Also on the
list: future king-maker Pam Harriman. But Bill Clinton's funders include not
only some of the biggest corporate names ever to show an interest in the tiny
state of Arkansas but some of the most questionable. A former US Attorney will
later tell Roger Morris, "That was the election when the mob really came
into Arkansas politics. . . It wasn't just Bill Clinton and it went beyond our
old Dixie Mafia. . . This was eastern and west coast crime money that noticed
the possibilities just like the legitimate corporations did."
Dan
Lasater buys a ski resort in New Mexico for $20 million and uses Clinton's name
(with permission) to promote it. Later, a US Customs investigative report will
note that the resort is being used for drug operations and money laundering.
Lasater also flies to Belize with his aide Patsy Thomasson to buy a 24,000 acre
ranch. Among those present at the negotiations is the US Ambassador. The deal
falls through because of the opposition of the Belize government.
A
private contractor for Arkansas' prison system stops selling prisoners' blood
to a Canadian broker and elsewhere overseas after admitting the blood might be
contaminated with the AIDS virus or hepatitis. Sales of prisoners' blood in US
are already forbidden.
Tens
of thousands of dollars in mysterious checks begin moving through Whitewater's
account at Madison Guaranty. Investigators will later suspect that McDougal was
operating a check-kiting scheme to drain money from the S&L
Hot
Springs police record Roger Clinton during a cocaine transaction. Roger says,
"Got to get some for my brother. He's got a nose like a vacuum
cleaner." Roger is arrested while working at menial jobs for Arkansas
"bond daddy" Dan Lasater.
Barry
Seal estimates that he has earned between $60 and $100 million smuggling
cocaine into the US, but with the feds closing in on him, Barry Seal flies from
Mena to Washington in his private Lear Jet to meet with two members of Vice
President George Bush's drug task force.
Following the meeting, Seal rolls over
for the DEA, becoming an informant. He collects information on leaders of the
Medellin cartel while still dealing in drugs himself. The deal will be kept
secret from investigators working in Louisiana and Arkansas. According to
reporter Mara Leveritt, "By Seal's own account, his gross income in the
year and a half after he became an informant - while he was based at Mena and
while Asa Hutchinson was the federal prosecutor in Fort Smith, 82 miles away -
was three-quarters of a million dollars. Seal reported that $575,000 of that
income had been derived from a single cocaine shipment, which the DEA had
allowed him to keep. Pressed further, he testified that, since going to work
for the DEA, he had imported 1,500 pounds of cocaine into the U.S. Supposed
informant Seal will fly repeatedly to Colombia, Guatemala, and Panama, where he
meets with Jorge Ochoa, Fabio Ochoa, Pablo Escobar, and Carlos Lehder - leaders
of the cartel that at the time controlled an estimated 80 percent of the
cocaine entering the United States."
Ronald
Reagan wants to send the National Guard to Honduras to help in the war against
the Contras. Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis goes to the Supreme Court
in a futile effort to stop it but Clinton is happy to oblige, even sending his
own security chief, Buddy Young, along to keep an eye on things.
Winding up its
tour, the Arkansas Guard declares large quantities of its weapons
"excess" and leaves them behind for the Contras.
Clinton
bodyguard, state trooper LD Brown, applies for a CIA opening. Clinton gives him
help on his application essay including making it more Reaganesque on the topic
of the Nicaragua. According to Brown, he meets a CIA recruiter in Dallas whom
he later identities as former member of Vice President Bush's staff. On the
recruiter's instruction, he meets with notorious drug dealer Barry Seal in a
Little Rock restaurant. Joins Seal in flight to Honduras with a purported
shipment of M16s and a return load of duffel bags. Brown gets $2,500 in small
bills for the flight. Brown, concerned about the mission, consults with Clinton
who says,
"Oh, you can handle it, don't sweat it." On second flight,
Brown finds cocaine in a duffel bag and again he seeks Clinton's counsel.
Clinton says to the conservative Brown, "Your buddy, Bush, knows about
it" and of the cocaine, "that's Lasater's deal."
1985
Arkansas
state pension funds -- deposited in Worthen by Governor Bill Clinton --
suddenly lose 15% of their value because of the failure of high risk,
short-term investments and the brokerage firm that bought them. The $52 million
loss is covered by a Worthen check written by Jack Stephens in the middle of
the night, an insurance policy, and the subsequent purchase over the next few
months of 40% of the bank by Mochtar Riady. Clinton and Worthen escape a major
scandal.
Mochtar
and James Riady engineer the takeover of the First National Bank of Mena in a
town of 5,000 with few major assets beyond a Contra supply base plus drug running
and money-laundering operations.
Terry
Reed is asked to take part in Operation Donation, under which planes and boats
needed by the Contras "disappear," allowing owners to claim
insurance. Reed has been a Contra operative and CIA asset working with Felix
Rodriguez, the Contra link to the CIA and then-Vice President Bush's office.
Reed later claims he refused, but that his plane was removed while he was away.
Park
on Meter, a parking meter manufacturer in Russellville, Arkansas, receives the
first industrial development loan from the Arkansas Development Finance
Authority in 1985. Some suspect that POM is doing a lot more than making
parking meters -- specifically that it has secret federal contracts to make
components of chemical and biological weapons and devices to carry them on
C-130s for the Contras. The company later denies the Contra connection although
it will admit having secret military contracts. Web Hubbell is the company's
lawyer. Right next to POM, on land previously owned by it, is an Army reserve
chemical warfare company.
An
independent investigator will later find evidence of an electronic transfer of
$50 million from the Arkansas Development Financial Authority to a bank in the
Cayman Islands. Grand Cayman has a population of 18,000, 570 commercial banks,
one bank regulator and a bank secrecy law. It is a favorite destination spot
for laundered drug money.
Asa
Hutchinson leaves the US Attorney's office to make an unsuccessful bid for US
Senate. According to police sources, Hutchinson had been aware of what was
happening at Mena and the investigation into it, but did nothing. Hutchinson is
replaced by Mike Fitzhugh who is reluctant to let investigators Russell Welch
of the state police and William Duncan of the IRS present evidence of money-laundry
to a grand jury.
1986
Journalist
Evans-Pritchard will describe the Arkansas of this period as a "major
point for the transshipment of drugs" and "perilously close to
becoming a 'narco-republic' -- a sort of mini-Columbia within the borders of
the United States." There is "an epidemic of cocaine, contaminating
the political establishment from top to bottom," with parties "at
which cocaine would be served like hors d'oeuvres and sex was rampant."
Clinton attends some of these events.
On
January 17, the U. S. Attorney for the Western District drops a money
laundering and narcotics-conspiracy charges against associates of drug smuggler
Barry Seal over the protests of investigators Russell Welch of the state police
and Bill Duncan of the Internal Revenue.
Seal
is scheduled to testify at the trial of Jorge Ochoa Vasques. But on February
19, shortly before the trial is to begin, Seal is murdered in Baton Rouge
gangland style by three Colombian hitmen armed with machine guns who attack
while he seated behind the wheel of his white Cadillac in Baton Rouge, La. The
Colombians, connected with the Medellin drug cartel, are tried and convicted.
Upon hearing of Seal's murder, one DEA agent says, "There was a contract
out on him, and everyone knew it. He was to have been a crucial witness in the
biggest case in DEA history."
Eight
months after the murder, Seal's cargo plane is shot down over Nicaragua. It is
carrying ammunition and other supplies for the Contras from Mena. One crew
member, Eugene Hasenfus, survives.
The
attorney general of Louisiana tells US Attorney General Ed Meese that drug
trafficker Barry Seal has smuggled drugs into the US worth $3-$5 billion.
1987
Two
boys, Kevin Ives and Don Henry, are killed in Saline County and left on a
railroad track to be run over by a train. The medical examiner will initially
rule the deaths accidental, saying that the boys were unconscious and in a deep
sleep due to marijuana. The finding will be punctured by dogged investigators
whose efforts are repeatedly blocked by law enforcement officials.
Ultimately,
the bodies will be exhumed and another autopsy will be performed, which finds
that Henry had been stabbed in the back and Ives beaten with a rifle butt.
Although no one will ever be charged, the trail will lead into the penumbra of
the Dixie Mafia and the Arkansas political machine. Some believe the boys died
because they accidentally intercepted a drug drop, but information obtained by
the Progressive Review suggests the drop may have dispensed not drugs but cash,
gold and platinum -- part of a series of sorties through which those working
with US intelligence were being reimbursed. According to one version, the boys
were blamed in order to cover up the theft of the drop by persons within the
Dixie Mafia and Arkansas political machine. Ives' mother will later charge that
high state and federal officials participated in a cover-up: "I firmly
believe my son and Don Henry were killed because they witnessed a drug drop by
an airplane connected to the Mena drug smuggling routes."
Prosecutor
Jean Duffey will later tell a talk show host in answer to whether law
enforcement people were involved in the train death murders: "I believe
the law enforcement agents were connected to some very high political people
because they have never been brought to justice and I don't think they ever
will be. I think they are protected to avoid exposing the connection. . . There
have been several murders of potential witnesses. Anyone who could have solved
this murder many years ago has been systematically eliminated."
Nine
persons reportedly having information on the Ives-Henry murders will end up
dead themselves.
1988
Charles
Black, a prosecutor for Polk County, which includes Mena, meets with Governor
Clinton and asks for assistance in a probe of illegal activities. "His
response," Mr. Black will tell CBS News later, "was that he would get
a man on it and get back to me. I never heard back."
Following
pressure from then-Arkansas Rep. Bill Alexander, the General Accounting Office
opens a probe in April 1988; within four months, the inquiry is shut down by
the National Security Council, according to a later report by Micah Morrison of
the Wall Street Journal. Several congressional subcommittee inquiries sputter
and stop.
1989
What
will later be known as the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy begins on the left as a
group of progressive students at the University of Arkansas form the Arkansas
Committee to look into Mena, drugs, money laundering, and Arkansas politics.
1990
Drug
distributor Dan Lasater is pardoned by Governor Clinton after serving just six
months in jail and four in a halfway house on minor charges. One law
enforcement official will describe the investigation into Lasater's operations
as "either a high dive or extremely unprofessional. Take your pick."
The alleged reason for the pardon: so Lasater can get a hunting license.
Lasater returns to his 7,400 acre ranch in Saline County.
1991
An
IRS memorandum reveals that even at this late date "the CIA still has
ongoing operations out of the Mena, AR airport."
Arkansas
State Police investigator Russell Welch, who has been working with IRS
investigator Bill Duncan on drug running and money laundering at Mena, develops
pneumonia-like symptoms. The Washington Weekly described the incident in 1996:
"On the weekend of September 21, 1991, Arkansas State Police Investigator
Russell Welch met with IRS Investigator Bill Duncan to write a report on their
investigation of Mena drug smuggling and money laundering and send it to
Iran-Contra prosecutor Lawrence Walsh.. Returning to Mena on Sunday, Welch told
his wife that he didn't feel too well. He thought he had gotten the flu . . .
In Fort Smith a team of doctors were waiting. Dr. Calleton had called them
twice while Welch was in transport and they had been in contact with the CDC.
Later the doctor would tell Welch's wife that he was on the edge of death. He
would not have made it through the night had he not been in the hospital. He
was having fever seizures by now.
A couple of days after Welch had been
admitted to St. Edwards Mercy Hospital, his doctor was wheeling him to one of
the labs for testing when she asked him if he was doing anything at work that
was particularly dangerous. He told her that he had been a cop for about 15
years and that danger was probably inherent with the job description. She told
Welch that they believed he had anthrax. She said the anthrax was the military
kind that is used as an agent of biological warfare and that it was induced.
Somebody had deliberately infected him. She added that they had many more tests
to run but they had already started treating him for anthrax."
While
in Washington, D.C., where he holds a permit to carry a gun, IRS agent and Mena
drug investigator Bill Duncan is arrested for weapons possession (his service
revolver), roughed up and handcuffed to a pipe in the basement of a DC police
station. After the incident he is taken off of the Mena investigation. Later,
when he is asked to falsify testimony for a Federal Grand Jury, he refuses and
is fired on the spot.
State
Attorney General Winston Bryant and Arkansas Rep. Bill Alexander send two boxes
of Mena files to special prosecutor Lawrence Walsh. Bryant says the boxes
contain "credible evidence of gunrunning, illegal drug smuggling, money
laundering and the governmental cover-up and possibly a criminal conspiracy in
connection with the Mena Airport." Seventeen months later, Walsh writes
Bryant a letter saying, without explanation, that he had closed his
investigation. Says Alexander later, "The feds dropped the ball and
covered it up. I have never seen a whitewash job like this case."
Dan
Harmon becomes the new prosecuting attorney in the district responsible for the
train deaths investigation. Harmon's drug investigator Jean Duffey is
discredited, threatened and ultimately has to flee Arkansas.
The
day Clinton announces his candidacy for the White House, Meredith Oakley sizes
him up in the Arkansas Democrat Gazette: "His word is dirt. Not a
statesman is he, but a common, run-of-the-mill, dime-a-dozen politician. A mere
opportunist. A man whose word is fallow ground not because it is unwanted but
because it is barren, bereft of the clean-smelling goodness that nurtures
wholesome things. Those of us who cling to the precepts of another age, a time
in which a man's word was his bond, and, morally, bailing out was not an
option, cannot join the madding crowd in celebrating what is for some Bill
Clinton's finest hour. We cannot rejoice in treachery."
The
Federal Reserve begins an investigation of BCCI's alleged control of First
American Bank. A few months later BCCI itself is shut down in what would be
revealed as the world's biggest bank scandal ever. Bill Clinton announces for
president. Among his targets: "S&L crooks and self-serving CEOs."
1992
The
Worthen Bank gives Clinton a $3.5 million line of credit allowing the
cash-strapped candidate to finish the primaries. Stephens Inc. employees give
Clinton more than $100,000 for his presidential campaign.
Little
Rock Worldwide Travel provides Clinton with $1 million in deferred billing for
his campaign trips. Clinton aide David Watkins boasts to a travel magazine,
"Were it not for World Wide Travel here, the Arkansas governor may never
have been in contention for the highest office in the land." In fact,
without the Worthen and Worldwide largess, it is unlikely that the
cash-strapped candidate could have survived through the later primaries.
A
massive "bimbo" patrol is established to threaten, buy, or otherwise
disarm scores of women who have had sexual encounters with Clinton. The
campaign uses private investigators in an extensive operation that will be
joked about at the time but later will be seen as a form of blackmail as well
as psychological and physical intimidation.
Money
magazine reports that Clinton annually receives about $1.4 million in
admissions tickets to the state-regulated Oaklawn racetrack which he hands out
to campaign contributors and others.
A
survey of campaign reporters finds that by February, 90% favor Clinton for
president.
During
the New Hampshire primary Clinton flies back to Little Rock to preside over the
execution of Ricky Ray Rector. The prisoner was so brain damaged that he saved
his pie to eat later.
1993
Arkansas
Governor Jim Guy Tucker comes to Washington to see his old boss sworn in,
leaving his state under the control of the president pro tem of the senate,
Little Rock dentist Jerry Jewell. Jewell uses his power as acting governor to
issue a number of pardons, one of them for a convicted drug dealer, Tommy
McIntosh. According to the Washington Times, many in the state "say it was
a political payoff, offered in exchange for dirty tricks Mr. McIntosh played on
Clinton political opponents during the presidential campaign." It seems
that the elder McIntosh had worked for Clinton in his last state campaign and,
according to McIntosh in a 1991 lawsuit, had agreed not only to pay him $25,000
but to help him market his recipe for sweet potato pie and to pardon his son.
Webster
Hubbell's name surfaces as a potential nominee for deputy attorney general but
he tells friends he does not want that job or, reports Time, "to take any
other position that involves Senate confirmation -- perhaps to avoid fishing
expeditions into the law firm's confidential business."
And
years later, this from a real expert: The New York Daily News quotes John Gotti
as saying that Clinton got away with things a Mafia boss would never have
gotten away with. In a conversation with his brother Peter, he is particularly
struck with Clinton's taped conversation with Gennifer Flowers: "He's
telling her, 'Why would you want to bring this out? If anybody investigates,
you lie.' " Said Gotti, "If he had an Italian last name, they
would've electrocuted him."
The
National Boycott List. These are the companies that have little regard for law and
order and only care about money and influence at the very tip of political
power in Washington D.C. You can see
that Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton have been busy peddling influence for
cash money. The Clinton Foundation,
Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation has organized into some kind of
criminal enterprise at worse or just a careless and lawless funnel for foreign
money and influence peddling. You are
losing your nation to illegal aliens, dishonest companies and corrupt
government officials at the local, state and federal levels.
Why
would any company, organization or person give money to the impeached scandal
ridden x- president Bill Clinton? Why
would any person, company or organization give cash money to Hillary Rodham
Clinton if they did not expect a return on their cash investment, bribe?
Take
a look at these names, discover the brand names and maybe you should consider
doing away with these companies. You
have the economic power to destroy or build any company. A boycott is a free speech issue so feel free
to take actions against these companies, Hillary and Bill Clinton and their
foundation and exercise your financial mussel and stop funding their corrupt
efforts. Hillary Clinton has been
selling direct access to the powerful as millions are starving, work part-time,
falling in debt and eating with the help of food stamps as Barack Obama
continues the destruction of America.
These
companies are not only considered possible enemies of the U.S. Constitution but
depending on fact finding might be enemies of the United States. These
companies give for a reason and it's not to save the planet. Hillary Clinton has sold the United States to
a pool of cash investors indicated below, sure to be more.

The Clinton Foundation reports contributions in ranges.
That's
not illegal, but it is scandalous.
There's

The
set includes oil, defense, drug, tech, and news companies, as well as labor
unions and foreign interests. It includes organizations as innocuous as the
Girl Scouts and those as in need of brand-burnishing as Nike, which was once
forced to vow that it would end the use of child labor in foreign sweatshops.
This
list of donors to the Clinton foundation who lobbied State matters because it
gives a sense of just how common it was for influence-seekers to give to the
Clinton Foundation, and exactly which ones did.
Author
Peter Schweizer, whose book Clinton Cash is due out May 5, took his best shot
but couldn't prove — or even assert — that Hillary Clinton took any official
action because of contributions to the Clinton Foundation. I haven't read the
book, but even Schweizer concedes that what he's identified is a "pattern
of behavior," not hard evidence of corruption.
Still,
the Clintons have shown they can't police themselves.
SHOCKING
HEADLINES - ILLEGAL ALIENS - BARACK OBAMA, DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY, Read the shocking story about DHS meeting
with people to keep the border open and allow millions and millions of illegal
aliens to stay and bring their friends,
“It
is shocking that the Department of Homeland Security, charged with enforcing our
laws, would meet with amnesty groups to discuss ways to further defy and
dismantle federal immigration law. Yet, Secretary Johnson has not met with his
own ICE officers’ union and its courageous members who have spoken out to
document the unlawful directives they are forced to follow. Mr. Johnson would
do well to remember the oath he took to uphold the law.”

WASHINGTON—Today,
Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson met with important stakeholders from
across the country to discuss the need for commonsense immigration reform, and
hear firsthand their comments and perspective on a wide range of immigration
issues. The meeting was part of Secretary Johnson’s focus on the effective and
sensible enforcement of our nation’s immigration laws, including the ongoing
review to assess how the Department of Homeland Security can conduct
enforcement more humanely within the confines of the law.
As
part of that effort, Secretary Johnson has been taking a hard look at these
tough issues, meeting with a range of stakeholders and employees, and assessing
where we can further align our enforcement policies with our goal of sound law
enforcement practice that prioritizes public safety.
During
the meeting, Secretary Johnson underscored his focus on supporting the passage
of commonsense immigration reform this year – which remains the only path to
fixing our broken immigration system.

- Opinion - Fictional Story of Slave Reparations
Slavery
Reparations In Congress, Slave Restitution Bill Negro Fast Easy Money
"Steamboat Amends and Slave Restitution Bill" Congress Committee
House and Senate Slave Restitution Compensation Law Trillions of Dollars Cash
Payments
Slave
Restitution has placed some strange black cloud all over America. The Steamboat Amends and Slave Restitution
Bill is sitting in Congress right now and growing larger by the minute due to
the presidential race next year. The DNC
GOP progressive dogs kept a low profile but the restitution bill was leaking
like an old bucket. Rumors have it that
Barack Obama runs around the White House in his shorts slipping around and
smoking and half ass'd drunk after Michelle hits the sack. The Negro's were stirring and it had happened
before and the political separating of black and white had taken place during
the Obama administration. The Negro was
willing to sell their past, present and future and to hell with their
dignity. It was cash time.
He
wavered for a moment looking at the menu as the black suited waiter waited. The
tall waiter with his black vest and white shirt persisted in clicking his pen
while he waited which was making Andy a little panicky. Andy knew that some famous actor owned this
guys great great grandfather or something as he could just about see the guy
picking cotton and eating peeled fruit. This slave history thing was getting
out of hand all across America as the Negro's wanted a lot more than food
stamps and a free cell phone, forget about 40 acres and a mule.
Even
with a bundle of cash in his suit pants front pocket Andy was suffering that
sense of poverty as the downtown restaurant was completely out of his
league. Only rich people ate inside this
restaurant like some underground kingdom for rich people. His shiny portable
killing device was tucked into the small of his back was bothering him but his
job required a pistol and at least two full clips, 9 millimeter, full metal
jacket.
Andy
was sure that his inexperience in a five star restaurant was showing as another
server swooped in unexpectedly with iced water and a mysterious basket covered
with a linen cloth, most likely fresh baked bread he was sure. It was kind of obvious that all the servers
were black and all the millionaires were white as he looked out the window and
watched the wet season begin with a little rain. It was just a couple of weeks ago that Barack
Obama and Michelle Obama grabbed up some dinner here and surely it was taxpayer
funded. Socialist bastards spent other
peoples money but those steaks coming out were thick and cooked to perfection.
Lazily Andy picked up his ice water and sipped a little trying to kill some
more time.
The
"John Craig Walker Tavern" had been in business since 1921 in New
York City and was made famous by FDR carefully getting his "product"
and "parcel" there which meant
booze and a five dollar girl for the evening.
The
period of prohibition of alcohol from 1920 to 1933 didn't slow down sales at
all as real life gangsters roamed from New York City to Chicago and everywhere
between running booze, girls and guns.
Those
Chicago gangsters and their sharp noses and long knives didn't have anything on
the modern gangs of New York. The girls
still worked here in the back rooms some say but Andy didn't know much about
that as they cost more than the food.
What
Mrs. Roosevelt didn't know wouldn't hurt her and Al Smith, the past governor of
New York assured Franklin that the old lesbian wouldn't care anyway. Franklin
would enjoy a sip and a slip never having to fear discovery kind of like Bill
Clinton does today. Who in their right
mind would rat out Bill Clinton and his billionaire friends taking hits on high
school girls? Hillary would never find
out and Bill would never tell and everybody knows that Barack has the eye for
expensive booze and boobs.
The
designer and architect of Attica Federal Prison sat at these tables with
Franklin and others while millions of dollars moved from the State Capitol of
New York to the friends of Franklin mostly under the table and out of
view. The citizen natives never knew the
difference but a lot of bribes moved to the center of power in Washington D.C.
so Franklin always had his hand out and his pockets open.
Some
people say that unemployment insurance and the old age pension was thought out
in one of the back dining rooms inside the John Craig Walker Tavern. The Federal Income Tax and Social Security
was a great deceiver centralized government idea to take money from the working
slobs and give it to lazy ass holes.
Nothing has changed but the numbers.
Washington D.C. is still the same old and cruel colonial plantation idea
working but the delivery system has changed.
The minorities are still slaves and they tend to vote for the Democrats.
By
keeping Obamacare funded, food stamps and other welfare programs flowing the
Negro's were kept in their place but now things are changing. The young blacks carry guns and distribute
drugs and fill up the jails. They just
about burnt down Baltimore and the FBI was now looking at the Mayor and State's
attorney.
Jimmy
Walker the corrupt Mayor of New York City, also the owner of the restaurant,
often times visited the Franklin Roosevelt table and the Tammany Hall boys
picked up a lot of Franklins bar and bar fly tabs. Franklin called the graft or the cash fix as
a donation to the future. A lot of money
moves around and the strings start in the Oval office and they reach down to
Baltimore, Detroit, Los Angeles, Dallas, Philadelphia and other places of
brotherly love.
When
the Wall Street Crash brought about the Great Depression the "Johnny
Walker" as locals called it about went under but the crime families of New
York needed a place and "The Johnny Walker" was the place.
The
five star restaurant was the place to be seen, night or day and it took Andy
three days to reserve the table for two.
Andy's drink arrived and it was stinging some going down and the warmth
filled him as he recovered his breath.
It was the Black Gold brand and it hit his gut just about the time
another server walked to his table.
Andy
Ledger had been directed to meet the political activist "Mr. Hunt"
from Tuskegee, Alabama at the Johnny Walker at noon on Thursday and his boss
told him to pick up the tab in the pursuit of Mr. Hunt's happiness.
This
guy thought the streets were paved with gold and he wanted every Negro released
from jail, able to vote, carry a gun and receive cash money because of past
slavery. Mr. Hunt was a progressive
black radical and the main stream media was his theater. Lately he had been blooming like a hot house
flower because of the riots and Barack Obama kept inviting him inside the White
House.
Logan
Hunt had acquired many black American advantages from the political class but
he also had a story to tell to the F.B.I. and Andy Ledger was the special agent
assigned to take the notes and listen to the story.
The
black community was rotting and disintegrating and they were ripe for political
harvesters like Mr. Hunt, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and a thousand others.
Mr.
Hunt was friendly with many high level politicians and he had been pushing to
create a change in America, constitutionally providing compensation for Negro's
as a result of past slavery.
Many
past presidents of the United States had attempted several national programs to
make grants and payments to the Negro's but the trillions of dollars would not
be enough for Mr. Hunt as compensation for past evils.
Mr.
Hunt was not talking about more welfare programs he was pushing for a cash deal
that would total trillions of dollars and be payable over a ten year period.
Mr.
Hunt had already received enough Democratic support in the House and Senate to
have written the "Steamboat Amends and Slave Restitution Bill" and
was sitting in a Congress committee at this very moment.
The
F.B.I. knew a lot about Mr. Hunt and one
thing for sure he was not satisfied with anything but action and he believed in
deeds and not words. He seemed to be a
kind and gentle man but he also played the weaker members of the African American
community as suckers and was worth tens of millions of dollars.
The
old hat players like Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Barack Obama and others were
low class players and Mr. Hunt's discouragement about the first black president
was well known at the New York Times, Forbes, Wall Street Journal, L.A. Times,
Boston Globe and all the big networks like ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN and
others.
Mr.
Hunt was very willing to have another American Civil War.
He
was influential and also late for lunch as Andy attempted to extend his free
stay at the Johnny Walker table for two without ordering.
The
clicking pen was driving him nuts.
.
“So
you think that people who never owned slaves should be required to pay
reparations to people who never were slaves.” This was a comment made by an
individual in a class I taught recently in which the issue of slavery
reparations was raised. Interestingly, the individual who made this comment is
black and the one who proposed reparations is white. Reparations are an ill-conceived
concept advocated by people who think they are owed because blacks were once
enslaved in America. Those pushing for reparations are predictable: Louis
Farrakhan and Al Sharpton are two of the most vocal advocates. In fact,
Farrakhan has gone beyond the borders of the United States with his reparations
road show.
Failing
to gain any traction in America for slavery reparations, Louis Farrakhan took
his entitlement message to the Caribbean last year. In Jamaica he demanded that
the Pope endorse slavery reparations to atone for the supposed sins of the
Catholic Church. “Project 2019” is a white paper that sets out the case for
slavery reparations to be paid by taxing U.S. citizens (although its author
admits that seeking reparations is probably a waste of time and effort that
could be put to better use in other causes for black Americans).
Reparation
demands will probably be with us for a while because they grow out of the
entitlement mentality that has become deeply engrained in so many Americans.
But demands for slavery reparations are just that: pure entitlement nonsense.
In fact, they are an example of race hustling at its worse. Americans of good
will are working hard to bridge the racial gap that still exists in our country
and bring about a state of racial harmony; something that would benefit
Americans of all races. Unfortunately, there are still a few people who view
racial discord as an opportunity to be exploited—think of Jesse Jackson and Al
Sharpton—people best viewed as race hustlers. Race hustlers continue to fan the
flames of racial discord as a means to keep themselves relevant, maintain
power, and fatten their wallets. The biggest fear of race hustlers is that
people in America will do what Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. recommended: judge
people by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin.
If this ever happens the days of race hustling are over.
Fearing
exactly this, race hustlers have long sought a way to really pour fire on the
embers of racial discord. The more progress people of good faith make in
bridging the racial divide in America, the more frantic race hustlers have
become in seeking a burning issue that will ensure them of more years, if not
decades, of relevance and financial security. The more entrepreneurial of the
race hustlers think they have hit upon just the issue: slavery reparations. As
race hustles go, this one must look inviting to people who benefit from racial
discord because it appeals to them on so many different levels. There are the
feelings harbored by some black Americans who know their history and
understandably resent aspects of it, there is the growing entitlement mentality
in American society, there is white guilt, and, finally, there is the always
enticing element of money.
My
view is that those who captured, transported, traded, and owned slaves should
have been made to pay reparations to those they enslaved 150 years or so ago
when slaves and masters were still alive. Reparations assessed at that time
would not have erased the blight on humanity that slavery represented, but they
would have at least been an attempt at justice. Speaking of justice, this is
why I disagree advocates of slavery reparations who want American citizens
alive today to be taxed to pay reparations to black Americans. If the goal of
reparations is justice, where is the justice in asking Americans who are living
today to pay for the sins of Americans who died long ago, sins they played no
part in and owing to the span of time involved could not have stopped? How can
a person alive today possibly be culpable for sins committed 200 or more years
ago?
Further,
what about Hispanic and Asian Americans? Should they be required to pay? What
about Americans of mixed racial heritage? Should they be required to pay? What
about the fact that a high percentage of Americans living today trace their
lineage to immigrants who came to America after the Civil War? Should they be
allowed to pay? What about descendants of black people who themselves owned
slaves? Should they be required to pay? What about descendants of white
Americans who helped slaves escape bondage? Should they be required to pay?
To
race hustlers, slavery reparations must look like a promising issue on which to
hang their hats, not to mention their wallets. Their thinking probably goes
something like this: If we make enough noise about this issue and stir up
enough guilt, maybe pandering politicians will go along with reparations just
to shut us up. But on more careful consideration, the idea of reparations is
not just fraught with difficulties; it is the result of twisted logic,
entitlement, and greed. Society cannot right one wrong by perpetrating another.
You do not establish justice for one man by inflicting injustice on another.
Look
into this issue and you will notice right away that slavery reparations
advocates do not limit their expectations of payment to just the direct
descendants of slave traders and slave owners. This is not because they
acknowledge that even direct descendants played no role in the heinous
activities of their forbearers. The descendants of slave owners and slave
traders weren’t even alive in those dark days of America’s history, nor would
they be for a long time.
Obviously, people cannot be held responsible—legally, ethically, or morally—for things they did not do and could not prevent. But this is not why reparations advocates choose not to focus on the descendants of slave traders and slave owners. The real reason is the very essence of expedience: money. There are not enough direct descendants of slave traders and slave owners alive in America today to generate the kind of money advocates are hoping to receive. Better for the pocketbooks of race hustlers if all Americans have to pay into the proposed fund and let justice be damned.

Better for the pocketbooks of race hustlers if all Americans have to pay into the proposed fund and let justice be damned.
Another
important question is this: Who would administer a reparations fund? Actually,
reparations advocates have already answered this question. The plan is to ask
“black leaders” to administer the reparations fund and make decisions
concerning how to distribute any money that would be collected. Now there’s a
plan. Besides this approach being a formula certain to encourage cronyism,
graft, and corruption—that much power coupled with that much money is certain
to corrupt, just look at Congress—who is going to choose the black leaders to
administer the fund and who is going to oversee their decisions?
Slavery
was an abomination, not just to America but to humanity. I state this as a
given. However, expecting reparations to be paid by people who did not live
during the slavery era, have never owned slaves, and in all likelihood are not
even distantly related to slave owners of the past is a bad idea; an idea that
is not fair, just, or logical. In fact, the demand for slavery reparations is
little more than an example of the entitlement mentality run amok and being
pushed by people who are interested in receiving money they don’t deserve from
people who don’t owe it to them.
