Gangster Watch
Hillary Rodham Clinton,
Bill Clinton, The Clinton Foundation;
The Secretary of State for Barack Obama, Hillary Rodham Clinton has again been caught lying to Congress, the FBI and also the American people.
The Road House Management - Hillary Clinton's State Department - did everything possible to hire or place donors of the Clinton Foundation,
Judicial Watch
today released 296 pages of State Department records, of which 44 email
exchanges were not previously turned over to the State Department, bringing the
known total to date to 171 of new Clinton emails (not part of the 55,000 pages
of emails that Clinton turned over to the State Department). These records further appear to contradict
statements by Clinton that, “as far as she knew,” all of her government emails
were turned over to the State Department
The new
documents reveal that in April 2009 controversial Clinton Foundation official
Doug Band pushed for a job for an associate. In the email Band tells Hillary
Clinton’s former aides at the State Department Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin
that it is “important to take care of [Redacted]. Band is reassured by Abedin
that “Personnel has been sending him options.” Band was co-founder of Teneo
Strategy with Bill Clinton and a top official of the Clinton Foundation,
including its Clinton Global Initiative.
Included in
the new document production is a 2009 email in which Band, directs Abedin and
Mills to put Lebanese-Nigerian billionaire and Clinton Foundation donor Gilbert
Chagoury in touch with the State Department’s “substance person” on Lebanon. Band notes that Chagoury is “key guy there
[Lebanon] and to us,” and insists that Abedin call Amb. Jeffrey Feltman to
connect him to Chagoury.
Chagoury is a
close friend of former President Bill Clinton and a top donor to the Clinton
Foundation. He has appeared near the top of the Foundation’s donor list as a $1
million to $5 million contributor, according to foundation documents. He also
pledged $1 billion to the Clinton Global Initiative. According to a 2010 investigation by PBS
Frontline, Chagoury was convicted in 2000 in Switzerland for laundering money
from Nigeria, but agreed to a plea deal and repaid $66 million to the Nigerian
government.
Clinton’s top
aides’ favors for and interactions with the Clinton Foundation seem in
violation of the ethics agreements that Hillary Clinton agreed to in order to
be appointed and confirmed as Secretary of State.
