How Hillary Clinton Abused Her State Department Role To Help Her Hedge Funder Son-In-Law

Tyler Durden's picture




 

While Hillary Clinton may have had some entertaining problems when using her Blackberry (or was that iPad) as US Secretary of State, one thing she excelled at was nepotism.

According to the latest set of emails released by the State Department, and first reported by the Daily Caller, Hillary intervened in a request forwarded by her son-in-law, Marc Mezvisnky, on behalf of a deep-sea mining firm, Neptune Minerals, to meet with her or other State Department officials.

One of the firm's investors, Harry Siklas who was Mezvinsky's coworker at Goldman (which donated between $1 and $5 million to the Clinton Foundation) had asked Mezvinsky, who married Chelsea Clinton in 2010 and who currently runs his own hedge fund (in which Goldman CEO Blankfein is also an investor) for help setting up such contacts, an email from May 25, 2012 shows.

Siklas told Mezvinsky that Neptune Minerals (a company founded by one of Siklas' close friends) was poised for great things. He also touted an investment that Goldman Sachs -  had made in the company, which had underwater tenements in the South Pacific.

Siklas said that he and Adam hoped to meet with State Department officials, including Clinton, to discuss deep sea mining “and the current legal issues and regulations” surrounding it.

"I introduced them to GS and the bankers took them on as a client," Siklas wrote.

"There is a favor I need to ask, and hopefully it will not put you out, as I’m not one to ask for favors typically," Siklas wrote to Mezvinsky. "I need a contact in Hillary’s office."

"Siklas said that he and Adam hoped to meet with State Department officials, including Clinton, to discuss deep sea mining “and the current legal issues and regulations” surrounding it.

As AP adds, the lobbying effort on behalf of Neptune Minerals  came while Hillary Clinton — now the leading Democratic presidential candidate — was advocating for an Obama administration push for Senate approval of a sweeping Law of the Sea Treaty. The pact would have aided U.S. mining companies scouring for minerals in international waters, but the Republican-dominated Senate blocked it.

Clinton then ordered a senior State Department official, Thomas Nides and now a vice chairman at Morgan Stanley, to look into the request in August 2012.

"Could you have someone follow up on this request, which was forwarded to me?" Clinton asked Nides.

Nides replied: "I'll get on it."

The emails do not show whether Clinton or other State Department officials met with Harry Siklas or with executives from the Florida-based firm. Clinton's official calendars, recently obtained by The Associated Press, also do not show any meetings between Clinton and Neptune representatives.

Clinton's campaign declined through a spokesman to discuss the issue, despite AP asking detailed questions about the matter since Nov. 30. The AP attempted to reach Siklas and a Neptune executive, Josh Adam, by phone, email and in-person visits to their homes last week but received no replies.

As noted above, Siklas had said in his email that his then-employer, Goldman Sachs, was representing Neptune.

Unperturbed by the State Department's stonewalling, AP then dug deeper into its quest to see just how extensive the nepotism ran:

A spokesman for Eaglevale said Mezvinsky would not comment on his role. Emails to a spokeswoman for Chelsea Clinton went unreturned. Morgan Stanley officials did not respond to an AP request to interview Nides. The AP also left three phone messages with Neptune Minerals' office in St. Petersburg, Florida, and also left several phone and email messages with Hans Smit, the firm's current president, also with no reply.

 

Federal ethics guidelines warn government employees to "not give preferential treatment to any private organization or individual," but there are no specific provisions prohibiting officials from considering requests prompted by relatives.

As the AP then notes, "Clinton's willingness to intercede as a result of her son-in-law's involvement is the latest example of how the Clinton family's interests cut across intersecting spheres of influence in American politics, commerce and charity."

There's more:

A lawyer for an environmental group opposing deep-sea mining said Clinton's action was "cause for concern that the State Department might take any action that could encourage such activity." Emily Jeffers, an attorney for the Center for Biological Diversity, a group opposing deep-sea mining, filed suit against Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration last May, accusing the agencies of failing to conduct comprehensive environmental tests before licensing Lockheed Martin Corp. to mine for minerals in U.S. territorial waters in the Pacific Ocean.

 

Jeffers said her organization supports the Law of the Sea Treaty that Clinton championed during her tenure at the State Department. She said the proposal would give the U.S. and other countries roles in establishing standards to explore for oil, gas and minerals. Jeffers said her group worries that the U.S. and other commercial nations will encourage deep-sea mining once the treaty is adopted.

 

One provision of the treaty, backed by corporate interests, would allow nations, including the U.S., to sponsor mining companies seeking to scour deep seas for minerals. Clinton told senators in May 2012 that American mining firms would only be able to compete freely against foreign rivals under standards set by the treaty.

 

Seabed mining is "very expensive, and before any company will explore a mine site, it will naturally insist on having a secure title to the site and the minerals it will recover," she said.

Clinton's public push for a U.S. role in securing deep sea mining rights quickly hit home at Neptune Mining. Three days after her Senate appearance, Siklas, who described himself as a "passive investor" in Neptune, emailed Mezvinsky.

As Siklas explained to Clinton's son in law, Neptune was pursuing sea-floor massive sulfide (SMS) mining in the South Pacific and had just bought out two other mining firms. Siklas said that he and Adam needed "a contact in Hillary's office: someone my friend Josh (and I perhaps) can reach out via email or phone to discuss SMS mining and the current legal issues and regulations." Siklas, then registered as a stockbroker at Goldman Sachs in New York, had contributed $2,000 to Hillary Clinton's 2008 unsuccessful presidential bid.

Siklas said the State Department would be interested in the subject following Clinton's Senate testimony. He said he and Adam "would feel very fortunate to have someone's ear on this topical issue, with the hope that at some point we get in front of the secretary herself."

And since the emails do not show how Clinton became directly aware of Siklas' email to Mezvinsky or why it took three months for her to act after Mezvinsky became involved, it also raises questions how many emails in the chain had been illegally deleted, and what may be contained in them. As the Daily Caller observes:

... it is unclear why there is no record of Clinton being forwarded the email that Siklas sent to Mezvinsky. Clinton wrote in her email to Nides that she was forwarded the email from Siklas to her son-in-law. If Clinton had turned over all work-related emails that she has sent or received — as she has repeatedly claimed — it would be expected that she had an email sent directly to her inbox with Siklas’s email attached.

The answer is simple: Clinton did not in fact produce all emails as had been demanded. But while the emails do not show a reply from Mezvinsky, Hillary Clinton eventually obtained a copy and sent it to Nides that August, ordering a follow-up.

Most importantly, as DC concludes, the email shows that people close to Clinton had the inside track in pushing her their pet projects — a pattern that has been on display with nearly every monthly release of Clinton emails. 

For those who are shocked, feel free to read what little evidence Clinton did provide of just that, shown below.

"Mezvinsky, 73, was convicted in 2003 of several acts of fraud. Prosecutors called him a one-man “crime wave” who routinely pulled business scams that netted him $10 million in ill-gotten loot."

My dearest. Please think about this. How can I prove to you beyond a shadow of a doubt they are me? And what if you found me the hottest thing imaginable or the butt ugliest woman you ever laid eyes on? How does any of this matter? Life is temporal. Eventually, even the most beautiful end up food for maggots.

I have been described as beautiful. I enjoy my femininity and sensuality I have now but someday it will be gone. I don't focus on this otherwise I would decend into narcicism and join the ranks of those I loathe. I'd rather just be me.

Take care,

'Spinning up as we speak': Email shows Pentagon was ready to roll as Benghazi attack occurred.

Military assistance was available, in sworn testimony was said to not be available, and was withheld. As a direct result people died.

http://www.foxnews.com/world/2015/12/09/spinning-up-as-speak-email-shows-pentagon-was-ready-to-roll-as-benghazi-attack/?intcmp=hpbt2

As the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi was unfolding, a high-ranking Pentagon official urgently messaged Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s top deputies to offer military help, according to an email obtained by Judicial Watch.

The revelation appears to contradict testimony Defense Secretary Leon Panetta gave lawmakers in 2013, when he said there was no time to get forces to the scene in Libya, where four Americans were killed, including U.S. Ambassador to Libya Christopher Stevens.

“I just tried you on the phone but you were all in with S [apparent reference to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton],” reads the email, from Panetta’s chief of staff Jeremy Bash. “After consulting with General Dempsey, General Ham and the Joint Staff, we have identified the forces that could move to Benghazi. They are spinning up as we speak.”

" ... we have identified the forces that could move to Benghazi. They are spinning up as we speak.”

- Jeremy Bash, Pentagon chief of staff

The email was sent out at 7:19 p.m. ET on Sept. 11, 2012, in the early stages of the eight-hour siege that also claimed the lives of Foreign Service Information Management Officer Sean Smith and two former Navy SEALs, Ty Woods and Glen Doherty, private CIA contractors who raced to the aid of embattled State Department workers.  

Although the email came after the first wave of the attack at the consulate, it occurred before a mortar strike on the CIA annex killed Woods and Doherty.

Glen Doherty, (l.1), and Ty Woods, (r.), were ex-Navy SEALs and CIA contractors who rushed to help when the Benghazi attacks began. 

 

“This leaves no doubt military assets were offered and ready to go, and awaiting State Department signoff, which did not come,” Judicial Watch, a nonprofit government watchdog said in a statement.

Parts of the email from Bash were redacted before release, including details on what military forces were available.

In defending the Obama administration’s lack of a military response to the attack, Panetta told the Senate Armed Services Committee nearly two years ago that “time, distance, the lack of an adequate warning, events that moved very quickly on the ground prevented a more immediate response.”

The first assault occurred at the consulate at 3:40 p.m. ET. The second attack on the CIA annex a little over a mile away began three hours later. Bash’s email was sent approximately 40 minutes after that attack began.

Bash’s email, which bore the subject line “Libya,” was sent to Clinton’s then-deputy chief of staff Jacob Sullivan, Deputy Secretary of State for Political Affairs Wendy Sherman and Deputy Secretary of State for Management and Resources Thomas Nides.

The attack came in three waves at two locations. It began when a handful of attackers scaled the wall of the diplomatic post at dusk and opened a gate, allowing dozens of armed men inside who then set the building on fire. Stevens and Smith died after breathing in smoke while hiding in a safe room, and later died.

Hours later, a nearby CIA annex was attacked twice. Woods and Doherty died there while defending the annex from the rooftop. A team of six security officials summoned from Tripoli and a Libyan military unit helped evacuate the remaining U.S. personnel who were taken to an airport and flown out of Benghazi.

The Obama administration later falsely claimed that the attack was triggered by an Internet video that insulted Islam.

Lawmakers investigating the events surrounding Benghazi already had acquired the e-mail, along with tens of thousands of others related to the probe, according to Matt Wolking, spokesman for the House Select Committee on Benghazi.

“The Select Committee has obtained and reviewed tens of thousands of documents in the course of its thorough, fact-centered investigation into the Benghazi terrorist attacks, and this information will be detailed in the final report the Committee hopes to release within the next few months," Wolking told FoxNews.com. "While the Committee does not rush to release or comment on every document it uncovers, I can confirm that we obtained the unredacted version of this email last year, in addition to Jake Sullivan’s response."

Citizen prosecutorial committees should convene in every county and jurisdiction in the United States to issue arrest warrants for Hillary Clinton and the rest of the bribery-besotted political parasites and arrest them immediately upon entering that county or jurisdiction.

• Abolish the Federal Reserve System;
• Hold banking stock and bond holders and banking executive officers completely responsible for the totality of losses even if it exceeds paid in capital and face value of bond holdings;
• Prosecute and severely punish the political parasites for accepting bribes (I.e., campaign contributions, honoraria, fees for speeches, free rides on Crony Capitalist Corporate jets, etc.),
• Prosecute Crony Capitalist Corporations and Oligarchs for offering and paying bribes to political parasites;

The United States of America is third world banana republic. The rich and powerful are not held accountable to the law and I see no reason for the American People to observe the law. Hillary Clinton is a criminal and certainly has no legitimate standing to expect the American People to uphold any laws.

Endorse a political party? No. I defecate on political parties. The world would be a far, far better place if every political parasite suddenly dropped dead.

Trust me---those won't be released while Hillary is still living.

Hill's left a long line of dead bodies behind her. Everyone at State knows that. Nobody wants to become the next Vince Foster over Huma Abedin.

America is all about the Crime Families.

 

Stockholm syndrome.

 

Clinton especially.

What can I say? Hillary owes Marc. She and Chelsea wouldn't have qualified for Israeli passports on their merits as human beings.

Neither would Marc.

One day we'll find out more about the details of the bride price charged for Chelsea's virginity.

This corruption has permeated every level of government in the world, since the beginning of time......And the people who act shocked, when daylight shines on it is amusing......Nepotism and bribes, and illegal activity are standard operating procedure at every level of government.....Illinois and Virginia governors serving time for recieving bribes, Ex mayor of detroit serving 30 years....Ray Nagan, the mayor of New Orleans serving time.....The list is endless.......

Thats why I really laugh out loud when I see numbskulls at political rallies cheering and going yaaaaaa for a stupid politician, who probably is a crook, adulterer, and thief, that might end up getting caught, and doing prison time..........LMAO!......

And despite all the (in fact useless) wash her ... the sheeple are still gonna elect her.

Works since Stonage.

Will work for another millions of years.

Miserably designed genes.

Greed - and ignorance.

Not that big ass is the problem - it's the even bigger asses electing her. And all the other criminals.

Again - since Stonage.

And for another million of years.

That' THE issue.

Not her photoshopped ass.
