Clinton Foundation Takes $2 Million From Chinese Company Suspected of Helping NORKS
2015-03-17
[The Weekly Standard] One donor - Rilin Enterprises - pledged $2 million in 2013 to the Clinton Foundation's endowment. The company is a privately-held Chinese construction and trade conglomerate and run by billionaire Wang Wenliang, who is also a delegate to the Chinese parliament. Public records show the firm has spent $1.4 million since 2012, lobbying Congress and the State Department. The firm owns a strategic port along the border with North Korea and was also one of the contractors that built the Chinese embassy in Washington.

That contract is a direct tie to the Chinese government, according to Jim Mann, who has written several books on China's relationship with the U.S. With "embassy construction, one of the most important tasks is making sure that there are no bugs there," he said. "So you want to have the closest security and intelligence connections with and approval of the person or company that's going to build your embassy."
As Krauthammer says, "It's not over, it's got legs, long legs."

#11  I looked at the Clinton Foundation site. There are foundations giving to foundations. Sounds like a money laundering operation to me.

#6  Just be amused as all the usual Lefty agitators who tar anyone who accepts Koch brothers money as 'bought' argue that all this foreign money hasn't bought the Hildabeast.

#5  Imagine the hesitation of Chinese intelligence foreign source recruiters. They had to suspect the poultry sum of $2 million USD was a trap.

They were a little chicken, were they...
