GOP PAC: Clinton Foundation Should Return Its Millions in Foreign Money
Thursday, 19 Feb 2015 06:48 AM
By Elliot Jager
The Clinton Foundation has come under criticism from Republicans over its decision to once again accept contributions from foreign governments, Politico reported.
The Manhattan-based foundation, formally named the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation, stopped taking money from foreign governments in 2009 when former first lady Hillary Clinton joined the Obama administration as secretary of state.
After she left the Foggy Bottom in 2013, the foundation dropped the ban.
America Rising PAC charged that it is inappropriate for someone in Clinton's position — particularly because she is the likely 2016 Democratic presidential candidate — to be seen as beholden to foreign powers. It called on the foundation to return the foreign money it has already accepted.
"The alarming rate at which these contributions are now coming in presents a massive conflict-of-interest problem for her," said Republican National Committee spokesman Michael Short. "When that 3 a.m. phone call comes, do voters really want to have a president on the line who took truckloads of cash from other countries? Absolutely not," The Wall Street Journal reported.
The United Arab Emirates, a first-time donor, gave between $1 million and $5 million in 2014.
Saudi Arabia has channeled between $10 million and $25 million into the coffers of the foundation since its creation in 1999.
Australia, Germany, Norway, Italy and the Netherlands were also contributors.
"The potential conflict of interest for someone in Clinton's position requires they return the money, and the ethical lapse to accept the money in the first place calls into question Hillary Clinton's judgment," American Rising said in a statement.
Latest News Update
It further wants former President Bill Clinton to return speaking fees from foreign governments and commit not to take any more foreign-funded engagements.
The Clinton Foundation has served to facilitate many of the former first lady's recent public appearances.
As she prepares for her expected presidential bid, Clinton has remained involved with the foundation's philanthropic activities, Politico reported.
America does not want to listen to this person as President

Hillary LIED about sniper fire
BREAKING: Hillary Busted in Sick Lie Dishonoring Our Troops… This Should End Her Career
Friday, February 13th, 2015
There is a sickening phenomenon known as “stolen valor,” wherein men and women who have never officially donned the uniform of our military or seen combat nevertheless concoct falsehoods in which they place themselves in the same situations as our honorable troops.
While stolen valor in and of itself isn’t illegal, unless one gains financially from it, it is still widely regarded as dishonorable toward our troops and generally looked upon as a narcissistic jerk move.
NBC’s Brian Williams was recently suspended after his own version of stolen valor came to light, mainly his repeated story of being shot at by RPGs in the early days of the Iraq War.
Now that Williams is off the air and hidden away from public view, it has been noticed that somebody else who is usually front and center in the media has also been hidden away from the public — namely Hillary Clinton.
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus recently wrote a humorously sarcastic letter to Democrat National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, asking about Hillary’s recent absence from the public eye.
“After hearing about Brian Williams’s recent suspension at NBC for telling false stories about coming under fire in war zones, we thought perhaps the DNC had also ‘suspended’ Mrs. Clinton for her similar fabrications.”
“As you remember, she once told a harrowing tale of ‘landing under sniper fire’ in Bosnia,” he explained, “only to have her story completely debunked when a video showed her walking casually on the tarmac.”
“If that’s not the case, do you rebuke her fabrications in the same way that NBC has rebuked their star news anchor? Will the DNC conduct research into Mrs. Clinton’s other past statement to ensure that she is being honest with the American people?” Priebus wanted to know.
“If not, I’m sure we can help with that,” he concluded.

Hillary's deep ties to terrorists
LEAKED AUDIO RECORDINGS Reveal Hillary Clinton is a Muslim Brotherhood Agent Who Helped Muslim Brotherhood Take Control of North Africa and Middle East
According to a three-part series published by the Washington Times, it was Hillary Clinton who was insisting that the U.S. remove Libya’s Muammar Gadhafi in 2011 while pushing false narratives to do so. These reports have allegedly caught the attention of the House Select Committee on Benghazi. What must be included in this analysis is just how influential Clinton’s most trusted adviser Huma Abedin was and is. If anyone had a vested interest in removing Gadhafi from power to benefit Libya’s Muslim Brotherhood rebels, it was Huma’s Muslim Brotherhood family.
To illustrate how close Huma and Hillary were, it was Abedin who first informed her boss of Gadhafi’s death:
The timeline of events as they unfolded in Libya starts in early 2011. By July of that year, the positions of the State Department, led by Hillary at the time, were apparently so ridiculous that someone from the Pentagon went to the Gadhafi regime to tell them so. Using lies to justify regime change in Libya reflected a very pro-Muslim Brotherhood stance.
On June 23rd of that year, Hillary was in Jamaica and publicly weighed in on the side she was taking:
Try as we might, the media was more interested in Weinergate, which involved lewd photos of Huma’s husband, sitting U.S. Congressman Anthony Weiner being widely distributed on social media. It was Andrew Breitbart who was front and center after having broken the scandal. At one point, just prior to Weiner’s scheduled press conference in response to the allegations, Breitbart made news when he took to the podium first:
At the time, I was actually writing for Breitbart.com. Up to that point, my articles were approved and sailed right on through. When I attempted to reveal the Abedin story on the site as an exclusive, it was rejected. The reason had to do with the fact that Huma was not only playing the role of the scorned wife but she was also pregnant. It was understandable on one level; Breitbart was at the center of a highly charged story that breeched the mainstream media’s firewall. Andrew was being accused of running with a false story. Being wrong about Abedin’s connections could have been disastrous.
Those connections, however, were irrefutable and the story was anything but false.
The Abedin story would lay dormant for one year, until Rep. Michele Bachmann referenced our findings in a letter to acting State Department IG Harold Geisel on June 13, 2012. That letter came with a 90-day deadline for Geisel to respond to Bachmann’s concerns; he never did.
On the 90th day, the Benghazi attacks took place. As Shoebat.com reported, Rep. Lynn Westmoreland – who sits on the Benghazi Select Committee – was one of the signatories on Bachmann’s letter:
At the time of Bachmann’s letter, Gadhafi had long since been removed from power after being killed in the street by Muslim Brotherhood rebels on October 20, 2011:
The second Washington Times article indicated that Hillary was so invested in Gadhafi’s removal and that her justification for it (Gadhafi’s plans for genocide) was based on lies and speculative arguments. Again, keep in mind that Hillary’s position was supported by the Muslim Brotherhood, the same Brotherhood that Abedin was deeply connected to through her family:
According to the second Washington Times article, we see that McCain was also on team Hillary in 2011 when it came to the lies about why Gadhafi needed to be removed:
Both men praised Abedin and derided Bachmann, who sat on the same HPSCI that Rogers chaired. Rogers referred to Abedin as “an American patriot” and Boehner said she was a woman with “sterling character” after being asked about Bachmann’s concerns:
Rogers was quoted by the USA Today about Bachmann’s concerns at the time:
In 2011, as Hillary was making unsubstantiated claims that Gadhafi’s removal was necessary to prevent genocide, Rogers’ wife Kristi Rogers sat on the Board of Aegis, a company that was doing work in Libya that year. As Shoebat.com has reported, former deputy undersecretary of defense to international technology security John Shaw indicated that Aegis was ultimately responsible for the outsourcing of diplomatic security at the Special Mission Compound (SMC) in Benghazi that contributed to the murder of four Americans. According to Shaw, a string of downstream outsourcing decisions led to Muslim Brotherhood terrorists being hired to protect U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
Moreover, in the third Washington Times article, it is learned that “key members of Congress” knew full well what was going on relative to arming terrorists, thanks to a lengthy intelligence report.
As Chairman of HPSCI and Speaker of the House respectively, Rogers and Boehner were most likely among those “key members” who had access to the report:
In the months that followed, Hillary began to have her way with a gun trafficking operation in Libya that Boehner and Rogers both likely knew about. As Hillary was getting her way in Libya, Boehner would spend more than a year putting the brakes on the Fast and Furious investigation. Even when Congress was on the brink of holding Holder in contempt, it was reported that House Leadership was reluctant to do it:
As Shoebat.com reported, one of the duties of the Speaker of the House is to order the Sergeant-at-Arms to arrest anyone found in contempt of Congress and who is not a member of that body. There are currently two individuals who fit that description – Attorney General Holder and former IRS official Lois Lerner.
Boehner has not carried out is duty in either case.
Perhaps even more disgraceful is that as Boehner was slow-walking one investigation into a weapons trafficking operation that contributed to the murder of one American in Brian Terry, he was at a minimum, derelict in allowing another weapons trafficking operation to take place that would one day contribute to the murders of four other Americans in Benghazi.

To illustrate how close Huma and Hillary were, it was Abedin who first informed her boss of Gadhafi’s death:
Huma Abedin informing Hillary of Gaddafi’s death on October 20, 2011.
On June 23rd of that year, Hillary was in Jamaica and publicly weighed in on the side she was taking:
Congress is certainly free to raise any questions orobjections and I am sure I will hear that tomorrow when I testify. But, the bottom line is, whose side are you on? Are you on Gadhafi’s side or are you on the side of the aspirations of the Libyan people and the International coalition that has been created to support them? For the Obama Administration the answer to that question is very easy.The first Washington Times installment opens thusly:
Top Pentagon officials and a senior Democrat in Congress so distrusted Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s 2011 march to war in Libya that they opened their own diplomatic channels with the Gadhafi regime in an effort to halt the escalating crisis, according to secret audio recordings recovered from Tripoli.One month earlier – as Weinergate 1.0 became the focus of conservative media – it was Shoebat.com that was busy revealing Abedin’s irrefutable familial ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. At the time, Shoebat.compublished the shocking list of 63 Muslim Sisterhood leaders; Abedin’s mother Saleha Abedin was on the list.
The tapes, reviewed by The Washington Times and authenticated by the participants, chronicle U.S. officials’ unfiltered conversations with Col. Moammar Gadhafi’s son and a top Libyan leader, including criticisms that Mrs. Clinton had developed tunnel vision and led the U.S. into an unnecessary war without adequately weighing the intelligence community’s concerns.
“You should see these internal State Department reports that are produced in the State Department that go out to the Congress. They’re just full of stupid, stupid facts,” an American intermediary specifically dispatched by the Joint Chiefs of Staff told the Gadhafi regime in July 2011, saying the State Department was controlling what intelligence would be reported to U.S. officials.
Try as we might, the media was more interested in Weinergate, which involved lewd photos of Huma’s husband, sitting U.S. Congressman Anthony Weiner being widely distributed on social media. It was Andrew Breitbart who was front and center after having broken the scandal. At one point, just prior to Weiner’s scheduled press conference in response to the allegations, Breitbart made news when he took to the podium first:
At the time, I was actually writing for Breitbart.com. Up to that point, my articles were approved and sailed right on through. When I attempted to reveal the Abedin story on the site as an exclusive, it was rejected. The reason had to do with the fact that Huma was not only playing the role of the scorned wife but she was also pregnant. It was understandable on one level; Breitbart was at the center of a highly charged story that breeched the mainstream media’s firewall. Andrew was being accused of running with a false story. Being wrong about Abedin’s connections could have been disastrous.
Those connections, however, were irrefutable and the story was anything but false.
The Abedin story would lay dormant for one year, until Rep. Michele Bachmann referenced our findings in a letter to acting State Department IG Harold Geisel on June 13, 2012. That letter came with a 90-day deadline for Geisel to respond to Bachmann’s concerns; he never did.
Geisel: Failed to respond to letter from Congress.
Letter about Muslim Brotherhood infiltration sent 90 days before Benghazi.
The second Washington Times article indicated that Hillary was so invested in Gadhafi’s removal and that her justification for it (Gadhafi’s plans for genocide) was based on lies and speculative arguments. Again, keep in mind that Hillary’s position was supported by the Muslim Brotherhood, the same Brotherhood that Abedin was deeply connected to through her family:
The intelligence community gathered no specific evidence of an impending genocide in Libya in spring 2011, undercutting Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s primary argument for using the U.S. military to remove Col. Moammar Gadhafi from power, an event that has left his country in chaos, according to officials with direct knowledge of the dispute.In the wake of Bachmann’s letter to the State Department in 2012, Republican Senator John McCain inexplicably stood by Abedin and denounced Bachmann from the floor of the Senate; it made no sense and McCain ignored ALL of Bachmann’s most legitimate concerns as he railed against her:
Defense officials, speaking in detail for the first time about their assessments of the Libyan civil war four years ago, told The Washington Times that Mrs. Clinton’s strong advocacy for intervention against the Libyan regime rested more on speculative arguments of what might happen to civilians than on facts reported from the ground.
According to the second Washington Times article, we see that McCain was also on team Hillary in 2011 when it came to the lies about why Gadhafi needed to be removed:
Soon, however, the information being gathered by the intelligence community was at loggerheads with claims of the main supporters for war with Libya, which included French President Nicolas Sarkozy; Sen. John McCain, Arizona Republican; Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman John F. Kerry, Massachusetts Democrat; and three powerful women close to President Obama: Mrs. Clinton; Susan E. Rice, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations; and adviser Samantha Power.There were two other Republican members of Congress who inexplicably defended Abedin in response to Bachmann’s concerns as well. Both had to have been quite privy to what was really going on in Libya a year earlier – House Speaker John Boehner and House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HSPCI) Chairman Mike Rogers. Either these two men knew or they were left out of the loop entirely, which would have been an impeachable offense committed by President Obama. The silence on this issue from Boehner and Rogers speaks volumes. If it was done without their knowledge, they should have been up in arms.
Mrs. Clinton ultimately became the most powerful advocate for using U.S. military force to dethrone Gadhafi, both in her closed-door meetings with Mr. Obama, who ultimately made the decision, and in public with allies and the news media.
Both men praised Abedin and derided Bachmann, who sat on the same HPSCI that Rogers chaired. Rogers referred to Abedin as “an American patriot” and Boehner said she was a woman with “sterling character” after being asked about Bachmann’s concerns:
Rogers was quoted by the USA Today about Bachmann’s concerns at the time:
“That kind of assertion certainly doesn’t comport with the Intelligence Committee, and I can say that on the record,” he told USA TODAY, aligning himself with party leaders who have defended Abedin. “I have no information in my committee that would indicate that Huma is anything other than an American patriot.”
Rogers: Huma Abedin an “American patriot”.
Rogers and Boehner
As Chairman of HPSCI and Speaker of the House respectively, Rogers and Boehner were most likely among those “key members” who had access to the report:
Libyan officials were deeply concerned in 2011, as Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton was trying to remove Moammar Gadhafi from power, that weapons were being funneled to NATO-backed rebels with ties to al Qaeda, fearing that well-armed insurgents could create a safe haven for terrorists, according to secret intelligence reports obtained by The Washington Times.As the Obama administration was arming terrorists in Libya in 2011, the House Oversight Committee was investigating Operation Fast and Furious, which was a gun-walking operation sanctioned by the Department of Justice and its ATF. The operation blew up in the face of the Obama administration when ATF agent John Dodson blew the whistle on the administration after Border Patrol agent Brian Terry was murdered on the night of December 14, 2010 and two of the Fast and Furious guns were found at the scene.
The reports included a 16-page list of weapons that Libyans supposedly tracked to the rebels from Western sources or their allies in the region. The memos were corroborated by a U.S. intelligence asset familiar with the documents as well as former top Gadhafi regime official Mohammed Ismael.
“NATO has given permission to a number of weapons-loaded aircraft to land at Benghazi airport and some Tunisian airports,” the intelligence report said, identifying masses of weapons including tanks and surface-to-air missiles.
That report, which was prepared in English so it could be passed by a U.S. intelligence asset to key members of Congress, identified specific air and sea shipments observed by Libyan intelligence moving weapons to the rebels trying to unseat the Gadhafi regime.
In the months that followed, Hillary began to have her way with a gun trafficking operation in Libya that Boehner and Rogers both likely knew about. As Hillary was getting her way in Libya, Boehner would spend more than a year putting the brakes on the Fast and Furious investigation. Even when Congress was on the brink of holding Holder in contempt, it was reported that House Leadership was reluctant to do it:
Some within House GOP leadership circles would like Issa to abandon his plan for a committee and floor vote, which was sparked by a 64-page memo last week, which laid out the case for contempt.The contempt vote ultimately came about despite the efforts of Boehner to help slow walk the investigation. At that, Boehner scheduled the contempt vote on the very same day that the Supreme Court was scheduled to issue its historic ruling on the Obamacare law. After the House voted to find Holder in contempt of Congress despite Boehner’s efforts, the Speaker demanded answers and that justice be done. Days prior to Boehner’s statement in the video below, Bachmann sent her letter to the State Department’s Inspector General that inquired about Abedin’s connections to the Brotherhood:
They fear negative political fallout from citing the U.S. attorney general with contempt of Congress in an election year.
As Shoebat.com reported, one of the duties of the Speaker of the House is to order the Sergeant-at-Arms to arrest anyone found in contempt of Congress and who is not a member of that body. There are currently two individuals who fit that description – Attorney General Holder and former IRS official Lois Lerner.
Boehner has not carried out is duty in either case.

House Speaker John Boehner publicly defended Abedin in 2012.

Democrats and terrorism
Why doesn't the Democratic Party simply be honest and announce it is in bed with Islamic terrorism? Carter blames israel for Paris, obama hires terrorists in administration and releases terrorists we hold from gitmo and so much worse (http://obamaworstuspresident.blogspot.com/2015/01/why-obama-is-obsessed-with-ignoring.html) . Bill Clinton takes millions in terrorism money, Hillary says we should empathize with our enemies and now this:
Nancy Pelosi to name first Muslim lawmaker to House intelligence committee
By LAUREN FRENCH 1/13/15 10:32 AM EST Updated 1/13/15 4:12 PM EST
Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi announced in a closed-door meeting Tuesday she would name the first Muslim lawmaker to the House’s Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.
A senior Democratic aide said Rep. André Carson of Indiana would be named in the “coming days” to the key national security-focused panel. Pelosi (D-Calif.) told lawmakers of the appointment during the members’ weekly caucus meeting.
Story Continued Below
Carson would be the first Muslim to serve on the committee and was the second Muslim to be elected to Congress. He already serves on the Armed Services Committee and worked for the Department of Homeland Security’s Fusion Center — the clearinghouse established by the federal government to streamline data sharing between the CIA, FBI, Department of Justice and the military.
The intelligence committee will most likely tackle a series of high-profile international crises during the 114th Congress, including the threat of Islamic militants and Ukraine.
Carson’s office didn’t immediately return a request for comment.
The announcement comes in the wake of last week’s terrorist attack by Islamic extremists and subsequent shootouts with police that left 17 people dead. World leaders gathered on Sunday for a 1 million person “solidarity” protest against the violence that targeted French Jews and journalists.
BREAKING: Muslim U.S. Congressman Busted Working With Terrorist Frontman
Monday, December 29th, 2014
One of the two sitting U.S. Congressmen who happen to also be Muslim was caught working together with a known frontman and fundraiser for terrorist groups.
Indiana Representative Andre Carson (D) took part in a major Islamic convention in Chicago this weekend. The convention was hosted and sponsored by the Muslim American Society (MAS) and the Islamic Circle of North America.
Carson was a featured guest on a panel discussing the events in Ferguson and beyond. He was joined on that panel by a man named Mazen Mokhtar, who is known for operating an Al Qaeda website and fundraising for the Taliban.
It is presumed that Carson knew who Mokhtar is, and it is certain that the FBI knows who Mokhtar is, as he was named in a 2004 federal investigation of a UK-based Al Qaeda website that raised money for the Taliban, among other terrorist organizations. Mokhtar stands accused of operating a US-based mirror website of the one in the UK, according to PJ Media.
As per the Washington Post: “Mazen Mokhtar, an Egyptian-born imam and political activist, operated a Web [sic] site identified in an affidavit unsealed Friday by the U.S. attorney’s office in Connecticut. The Web site solicited funds for the Taliban and Chechen mujaheddin, according to the affidavit. It is an exact replica of Web [sic] sites operated by Babar Ahmad, who was arrested in England on a U.S. extradition warrant this week.”

How Hillary aids and abets islamic terrorists
Tariq Ramadan: Bush administration bans him, Obama administration throws down the welcome mat. April 2010 Tariq Ramadan is the son of Said Ramadan (see above) and the grandson of Muslim Brotherhood founder Hassan al-Banna. In 2004, Tariq Ramadan received a tenured position of Henry R. Luce Professor of Religion, Conflict and Peacebuilding at the Joan B. Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana. Two months later the Bush State Department revoked the visa on grounds of terrorist ties under the “ideological exclusion provision” of the Patriot Act. The university attempted to help Ramadan regain his visa with no success. Ramadan resigned the position in December 2004…
In January 2010 Secretary of State Hillary Clinton lifted the ban on Tariq Ramadan’s presence on American soil. By 2010, America was no longer under the threat of “terrorism.” Tariq Ramadan came to the U.S.

Could Jeffrey Epstein Doom Hillary’s Presidential Hopes?
|
Posted: 04 Jan 2015 08:42 AM PST
(John Hinderaker) Sex scandals tend not to be on my radar screen, so maybe that’s why I missed the Jeffrey Epstein story entirely. For those who–like me, until yesterday–are entirely unaware of Mr. Epstein, here is a brief recap:
Epstein grew up in New York, started out as a teacher, went to work for Bear Sterns and later founded his own investment firm. He appears to have been something of a financial genius; even though the secrecy surrounding his operation brings Mr. Ponzi to mind, apparently it was on the level. Epstein contributed large amounts of money to the Democratic Party and Democratic candidates. He cultivated friendships with the rich and powerful, who evidently liked Epstein in part because he surrounded himself with very young girls who were frequently nude. He seems to have spent most of his time on airplanes and yachts when he wasn’t on his private island in the Caribbean or his principal residences in New York and Palm Beach. Police in Palm Beach got wind of Epstein’s fondness for underage girls and launched an investigation. They prosecuted him, but he got off with a mysteriously light plea bargain under which he pled guilty to only The Epstein story has exploded in the British press in recent days because of Roberts’s recently-disclosed claim that she was “tricked out” to Prince Andrew at an orgy hosted by Epstein. Go here if you want to know more about that. This is where it gets interesting for Americans: among Jeffrey Epstein’s rich and powerful friends was Bill Clinton. Clinton visited Epstein on his Caribbean island and flew with him to various destinations around the world. Virginia Roberts says that she met Clinton twice but denies any sexual relations with him: I only ever met Bill twice but Jeffrey had told me that they were good friends.
Miss Roberts isn’t the first person to be surprised that someone with as much to lose as Bill Clinton isn’t more careful. One can only imagine what Hillary makes of her husband’s friendship with the world’s most notorious pedophile. Miss Roberts says that she is not aware of Clinton sleeping with any of Epstein’s underage girls–not that that is the only issue raised by the Epstein connection. If it were only her testimony, the matter might come to an end there, as one more discreditable Bill Clinton story that most people never hear about.
But there is a joker in the deck: Epstein is a voyeur, and his various residences were equipped with secret cameras and video recorders. Reportedly the Palm Beach police are in possession of a vast trove of photographs and videos of Epstein’s guests engaging in various acts with his underage girls. Are there any of Bill Clinton that could come tumbling out between now and November 2016? Undoubtedly Hillary has asked Bill that question; I assume he said No. Do you think Hillary can trust Bill to tell the truth about this? No, I don’t either. It’s one more worry to add to Hillary’s list.
UPDATE: Glenn Reynolds wonders whether something regarding Epstein and Clinton is brewing:
