    And Army Gen. John F. Campbell, the commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, conducted a press briefing this in the Pentagon's Briefing Room (2E973).

 

The Clinton money-laundering machine

    

    Today, Charles Krauthammer alluded that he had no doubt some of the 30,000 e-mails Hillary deleted very likely had references to the Clinton Foundation's business, which would be illegal and a conflict of interest. Others say it is organized crime at its finest - and we are financing it.

    This is a good, concise summary of how the Clinton Foundation works as a tax-free international money laundering scheme. It will probably eventually
prove to be the largest political criminal enterprise in U.S. history.

    This is a textbook case on how you hide foreign money sent to you and
repackage it to be used for your own purposes. All tax free. Here's how it
works:

    1. You create a separate foreign "charity." In this case one in Canada.
    2. Foreign oligarchs and governments then donate to this Canadian
charity. In this case, over 1,000 did, contributing mega-millions. I'm sure they did this out of the goodness of their hearts, and expected nothing in return. (Imagine Putin's buddies waking up one morning and just deciding to send untold millions to a Canadian charity).

    3. The Canadian charity then bundles these separate donations and makes
a massive donation to the Clinton Foundation.

    4. The Clinton Foundation and the cooperating Canadian charity claim
Canadian law prohibits the identification of individual donors.

    5. The Clinton Foundation then "spends" some of this money for legitimate good works programs. Unfortunately, experts believe this is on the order of 10%. Much of the balance goes to enrich the Clinton's, pay salaries to untold numbers of hangers-on, and fund lavish travel, etc. Again, virtually all tax free, which means you and I are subsidizing it.

    6. The Clinton Foundation, with access to the world's best accountants,
somehow fails to report much of this on their tax filings. They discover
these "clerical errors" and begin the process of re-filing 5 years of tax returns.
    7. Net result - foreign money, much of it from other countries, goes into
the Clinton's pockets tax-free and untraceable back to the original donor.
This is the textbook definition of "money laundering."

    Oh, by the way, the Canadian "charity" includes as a principal one Frank
Giustra. Google him. He is the guy who was central to the formation of
Uranium One, the Canadian company that somehow acquired massive U.S. uranium interests and then sold them to an organization controlled by Russia. This transaction required U.S. State Department approval, and guess who was Secretary of State when the approval was granted?

    As an aside, imagine how former Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell feels. That poor schlep is in jail because he and his wife took $165,000 in gifts and
loans for doing minor favors for a guy promoting a vitamin company. Not
legal, but not exactly putting U.S. security at risk.

    Sarcasm aside, if you're still not persuaded this was a cleverly structured
way to get unidentified foreign money to the Clinton's, ask yourself this:
Why did these foreign interests funnel money through a Canadian charity?
Why not donate directly to the Clinton Foundation? Better yet, why not
donate money directly to the people, organizations and countries in need?
    This is the very essence of money laundering and influence peddling. Now you know why Hillary's destruction of 30,000 e-mails was a risk she was
willing to take.

 

U.S. Air Force news

    

    More than 70 Air Force reservists and active duty service members from three different commands have trained to survive in the water at Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth, Texas.

    The headquarters of the New York Air National Guard’s 174th Attack Wing has been renamed in honor of a World War II veteran who commanded the unit for nearly 20 years.
