Mainstream press outlets are mounting a new brand of coverage on Hillary Clinton\u2019s campaign. They\u2019re questioning her ability to win the nomination<\/a> and\/or the general election<\/a>. All of a sudden, the done deal is not done.<\/p>\n What\u2019s behind this switch?<\/p>\n Aside from fear of The Donald, there is the boiling Hillary email scandal. There is also the specter of further revelations about the syndicate known as the Clinton Foundation. That\u2019s a big one. A very big one.<\/p>\n As I\u2019ve previously reported, the sale of 20% of the uranium in the US to Putin<\/a>\u2014that\u2019s right\u2014involved donors to the Foundation\u2014unreported donors\u2014as well as the participation of Mrs. Clinton\u2019s State Department. Detailed by the NY Times, the scandal has lain there for several months like a poisoned meal, with the press afraid to touch it further.<\/p>\n Now, enter a financial analyst named Charles Ortel<\/a>. Ortel made a name for himself by publishing his analysis of serious problems in General Electric\u2019s financial reports (2008). On his website, he has begun taking apart the entire Clinton Foundation, brick by brick. Here is an explosive excerpt from his overview:<\/p>\n \u201cIn financial terms, the size of criminal activities directly involving the Clinton Foundation exceeds $2 billion\u2014counting affiliated and indirect criminal activities, the size exceeds $50 billion. The geographic scope of these unprosecuted criminal activities touches all 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and more than 100 foreign countries where Clinton Foundation entities operate or solicit donations.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cBeginning late in 2008, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and others expanded efforts to cover up illegal operating and fundraising activities of the Clinton Foundation since inception. Working ultimately with individuals inside the I.R.S. and elsewhere, these persons led efforts to \u2018restructure\u2019 the Clinton Foundation to make it appear that it had been legally constituted and validly operated in compliance with applicable laws, when this was certainly not the case.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cTrustees and other persons have been engaged in an unprosecuted criminal conspiracy to operate the Clinton Foundation in the guise of a public charity, when it is, instead, an illegal money-laundering and influence peddling scheme.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIn fact, the Clinton Foundation has engaged in widespread unauthorized activities, including illegal operations internationally and in the U.S., and illegal fundraising across state and national boundaries, using telephones, mail, and the internet.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cMoreover, the Clinton Foundation has never validly been authorized by the I.R.S. to pursue tax-exempt purposes other than serving as an archival records repository and research facility in Little Rock, Arkansas.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cInstead of concentrating upon its specifically-authorized tax-exempt purposes, trustees performed lax oversight and installed ineffective controls, creating conditions where Bill Clinton, Ira Magaziner, and others deliberately and illegally diverted substantial sums from the Clinton Foundation and its affiliates.\u201d<\/p>\n In light of Ortel\u2019s analysis, to say the Clintons have wandered off the reservation would be a vast understatement.<\/p>\n So\u2026how have they remained free of this tsunami of a scandal? Who has been protecting them?<\/p>\n Let us return to the period when Bill Clinton was the Governor of Arkansas\u2014and a 1995 book titled Compromised<\/em><\/a>, by Terry Reed (former CIA asset) and John Cummings (former Newsday reporter).<\/p>\n Buckle up.<\/p>\n According to the authors, Bill Clinton was involved with the CIA in some very dirty dealings in Arkansas\u2014and I\u2019m not just talking about the cocaine flights landing at the Mena airport.<\/p>\n It seems Bill had agreed to set up secret CIA weapons-making factories in his home state, under the radar. But because Arkansas, when it comes to money, is all cronies all the time, everybody and his brother found out about the operation and wanted in. Also, Bill was looking for a bigger cut of the action.<\/p>\n This security breach infuriated the CIA, and a meeting was held to dress down Bill and make him see the error of his ways. His CIA handlers told him they were going to shut down the whole weapons operation, because Bill had screwed up royally. A screaming match ensued\u2014but the CIA people backed off a bit and told Bill he was still \u201ctheir man\u201d for the upcoming 1992 run for the Presidency.<\/p>\n
