CLINTON CASH OFFICIAL DOCUMENTARY MOVIE

Video Transcript:

The world is too small, our wisdom too limited, our time here too short, to waste any more of it in winning fleeting victories at other people's experience. The Clinton Global Initiative, which brings philanthropists and CEOs together with nonprofits to make concrete commitments aimed at some of the world's toughest problems. Almost 10 years in, they have leveraged billions of dollars in assistance in more than 180 countries. CGI was designed to tackle big global challenges in bite-sized pieces, with a conviction that regardless of size or scope, our problems will yield to concerted action and innovative partnerships of individuals, NGOs, businesses and governments. We have to now find a way to try and together. All the problems that we face from climate change to the financial contagion to nuclear proliferation are too complex and cross-cutting for any one government or indeed for governments to solve a loan. Because we believe that ending hunger is not only possible, but it is both a moral and strategic imperative. Hillary Clinton is trying to shift the spotlight to global warming, the presidential contender unveiling her plans to combat climate change. Together with innovative partners from the public and private sectors, we're working to make homes, universities and cities more energy efficient. We share a common future, and we are here to find common ground. Women must be empowered. It's classic Bill Clinton, by using his birth date to help the causes he champions, from combating climate change to obesity and even HIV-AIDS. It's a great help to help bring new dignity and respect to women and girls all over the world. And in so doing, bring new strength and stability to families as well. We are trying to do something no one has ever done before. A new report today claims that the Clinton Foundation gives about 10% of its money that it raises to actual charities and the services that they offer. It has been a report that you've made for 5 million, making speeches. The president has made more than $100 million. Well, if you have no reason to remember, but we came out of the White House not only dead broke, but in debt. Six years ago, Hillary Clinton was about to become Secretary of State. Barack Obama had nominated her. Everyone knew she was going to be confirmed by the Senate. It's going to be confirmed easily. But there was a thought. There was a question. There was a doubt out there about a potential conflict of interest. The Clinton Foundation, dropping its self-imposed ban on collecting funds from foreign governments and entities. And now the Washington Post reports total contributions to that foundation amount to $2 billion. There's a lot of money sloshing around. Everything is blurred and it's not good. The question screened out at me. What in the world happened with the foundation and these ulterior motives and the money and the email server? I'm sorry. It's too much. So, screened out at me. The amount of schmoozing involved and crossing lines and one person putting money in a foundation. And then Clinton getting unbelievable amounts for his speeches, contracts going one way or another. It's not good. I look forward to working with all of you, particularly the appropriators. We have a lot of work to do and it is such important to work the lives of him. We did this. We're a very simple strategy. Africa is a continent that has been a chamber of pours for decades. It's really not the fault of the African people. It's largely a result of the kind of system that's been perpetuated there. You have these oligarchs, which dominate these countries that oftentimes have natural resources that can be very lucrative. And these oligarchs strike deals with foreign corporations or foreign governments who in effect prop them up and put them in power. In exchange, these oligarchs give these entities access to rich mineral deposits. And the Clintons, you would expect to be opposed to this sort of thing. And that's at least what their language does. Our countries have deepened our cooperation on many issues, including good governance and transparency, energy, regional security, and advancing peace and development in the Niger Delta. The problem is, their words are different from their actions. The Wanda has created a taken and impressive protector of development and the people he has still think Kaganme is the man to take them to another level. The Wanda has worked all around the world, thanking the people for letting them oppose a human or the Arabian for prison of the Arabian for another seven years. Since Jose Tzai is far from entrenching democracy in Rwanda, he's actually eroding it by saying things with that position. Paul Kagame has been praised by Bill Clinton and the Clinton Foundation. But the fact that matter is Paul Kagame has a terrible human rights record. He's accused of eating military operations in the neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo, and that actually forced the recruitment of child soldiers. The UN has identified him as being involved in activities that entailed massive human rights violations. The newer opposition parties that have been formed in the last year or two have one by one been silenced or otherwise excluded from the race. And individuals, not only politicians, but even journalists, for example, and other Rwandans who may have used different from those of the government, have found themselves at the receiving end of what has become quite a violent campaign of intimidation. Well, Paul Kagame is a friend of Bill Clinton's. I want to say a special word of appreciation for the leadership of President Kagame. I'm greatly humbled to receive this Clinton global citizen award. He's actually given awards by Bill Clinton for his conduct as a leader of that country, and they regale him as a great military leader. This is the sort of legitimization that we don't want of these kinds of dictators and leaders. That's the kind of legitimization that the Clintons have engaged in, and they've done it in a way that creates commercial opportunities for donors and friends and allies who want to do business in Africa. Business in Africa means you're dealing with dictators who are going to give you access to, say, mineral rights or oil drilling rights, but you're going to have to pay them off. The Clintons partner with foreign entities who want access to Africa as specifically mining companies or energy companies who need to get concessions for access to oil or natural gas or the rights to mine for gold. Those who make a powerful alliance because these companies will give money to the Clintons, either in the form of speaking fees or in the form of donations to the Clinton Foundation, and the Clintons will then in effect do their bidding before the halls of power and corridors of power in Africa, and they will go to foreign governments and encourage them to do business with individuals who are putting money in their pocket. And this leads to some amazing fits of behavior that in a way are just reminiscent of 19th century Colonials. The perfect example of this is Ambassador Joe Wilson. Joe Wilson is a long time friend of the Clintons. In fact, he endorsed Hillary Clinton in the 2008 presidential election, and it was also thought that he might become a senior official in Hillary Clinton State Department. But the fact of the matter is Joe Wilson was up to something far more nefarious during Hillary Clinton's tenure as Secretary of State. In 2009, shortly after she became Secretary of State, when Wilson was the vice chairman of a company called Jarge Capital, they took out a 50-year lease on 400,000 hectares in South Sudan. South Sudan was in the middle of a civil war, and this lease was actually signed with warlords who were involved in the civil war. These individuals who were engaged in massive human rights violations, including the massacre of opponent tribes, and basically what Joe Wilson was engaged in was something called investing in sovereignty changes. They were basically cutting deals, lucrative deals worth potentially hundreds of millions of dollars with these warlords. And the expectation was simple, these warlords would take power, then they would give them access to these lands where they could make huge amounts of money, exploring for natural gas, exploring for oil, and for mineral rights. Ambassador Joe Wilson isn't the only Clinton friend in Foundation donor who was working in war-torn countries. Swedish mining investor Lucas Lundin has pledged $100 million to the Clinton Foundation. He did that in 2007, and his most lucrative mining operations are in the war-torn country of the Democratic Republic of Congo. This is a country that perhaps has the most horrific human rights situation on the face of the earth. By the time Lucas Lundin made his $100 million pledge to the Clinton Foundation, his Congo operation was making quote, staggering profits, and quote, according to his own financial statements. His overall capitalization was $20 billion, but for those profits to remain staggering, US policy under Hillary Clinton had to remain unchanged. That's a problem. Hillary Clinton is the senator back in 2006, supported something called the Congo Relief Security and Democracy Promotion Act. As the law's name implied, the goal was to bring reform to Congo. That's not something that Lucas Lundin would want. So in 2009, when Hillary became Secretary of State, she reversed course 180 degrees, and went from supporting reform in Congo to supporting the status quo, which is exactly what Luke Slundin would want, who of course had committed $100 million to the Clinton Foundation. But Congo isn't the only scandal played country where Clinton benefactors had made millions. Africa's most populous nation, Nigeria, is full of promise, but fulfilling that promise is sometimes a struggle. Plague by corruption and mismanagement, the resource rich country has a poverty rate of over 50%. Look at a country like Nigeria, which is really a cesspool of corruption. In fact, people will say it is perhaps the most corrupt country in the world. It's rich in natural resources, it produces a lot of oil, but that money never trickles down to the people. It goes to the oligarchs who run the country, who oftentimes take that money and put it in Swiss bank accounts in a way that of course the people of Nigeria can never benefit from. And you see, there's a federal law in the United States, which says, if foreign governments that receive US assistance aren't transparent in how they spend that money, that they will not be able to get US foreign assistance anymore, it's about transparency. But there's a way around that law. You can get a waiver from that law, how, by getting the US Secretary of State to grant you a waiver. We intend to remain very supportive on your reform efforts. Thank you for mentioning the work we did together on the elections. We're also very supportive of the anti-corruption reform efforts, more transparency, and the work that you and your team is also championing. Because we really believe that the future for Nigeria is limitless. So in the case of Nigeria, they receive hundreds of millions of dollars in US foreign assistance. They've not made progress in being more transparent. And of course, they've gotten exemptions from Hillary Clinton while she was Secretary of State. What's so curious about this is what was happening commercially to the Clintons while this was going on. Bill Clinton, for the first time ever, gets paid highly lucrative speeches in Nigeria, which had never happened before. In fact, he gets paid to do two speeches for $700,000 a piece by a businessman in Nigeria who just happens to be close with the president of that country. Keep in mind, by the way, that his normal speaking fee is less than $200,000 a speech. So this was an enormous payday for Bill Clinton. One of the pinnacles of power in that country is a gentleman named Gilbert Chaguri. Gilbert Chaguri, who has committed $1 billion to the Clinton Global Initiative, is connected to another individual in the Clinton orbit. That would be Mark Rich, the billionaire who was on the FBI's 10 most wanted list that was suddenly and surprisingly pardoned by Bill Clinton in 2001. Mark Rich, you might recall, is somebody who was trading oil with the Iatol Homania of Iran at the same time that the Iatola was holding 50 Americans hostage. He also had a long history of busting UN sanctions by trading oil with the apartheid regime in South Africa and a whole host of other nefarious governments. While Gilbert Chaguri, the high Clinton donor, was business partners with Mark Rich. Together, they sopped up oil assets in Nigeria and sold them on the oil market for the benefit of a corrupt individual who is leading Nigeria at the time named General Abacha. Abacha smuggled by some estimates $4 to $8 billion out of the country and put them in European bank accounts. Gilbert Chaguri was indicted and convicted in Europe for helping him to do that. He was charged for aiding and abetting a criminal enterprise and un money laundering charges. And the suffering that ends up being done here is by the people of Nigeria who see their leadership getting a pass from the United States. The elites in those countries are getting rich, the Clintons are getting rich, and the money somehow never trickles down to the people of Nigeria. Sadly, this theme of resources not trickling down to those most in need is a common one when it comes to the Clintons. As we told you at the start of tonight's program, a major magnitude earthquake has hit the island of Haiti and the Caribbean. The earthquake measured around seven points on the Richter scale and its epicenter fell just 10 miles from the capital port of France. Haiti's ambassador to the US has described the event as a catastrophe of major proportions. So far we have no information regarding the casualties. The light is going to end. It's a big earthquake. It's last like 50 seconds I think. Probably the most devastating humanitarian crisis that Hillary Clinton faced during her tenure at the State Department was the tragic earthquake in Haiti. It happened in January of 2010 and literally in a matter of seconds, 250,000 people were estimated to have died and a large portion of the Haitian infrastructure and economy was just decimated. It was a crisis on a massive scale. The United States is offering our full assistance to Haiti and to others in the region. We will be providing both civilian and military disaster relief and humanitarian assistance and our prayers are with the people who have suffered their families and their loved ones. In the days and weeks that followed the earthquake in January of 2010, Hillary Clinton made visits to Haiti. And here is the latest on Haiti. US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton arrived in Port-au-Prince just about an hour ago. She is the highest ranking US official in Haiti right now since Tuesday's earthquake. She's meeting with Haitian leaders and international officials to discuss the rescue and relief efforts. In fact, on her first visit, which occurred days after the earthquake, they literally had to stop traffic going into the airport at Port-au-Prince. Their recourse were relief supplies that were being flown in, but that traffic was stopped so the Secretary of State could come and assess the damage. There is a perception that there have been complaints or reports of bottlenecks that there's a lot of aid coming in, but it's very hard to get it out to the people who need it. That's just not true. The aid is coming in. We're getting it out. There's just not enough of it yet. She flew in with her political aides on a large federal airplane. She landed at the airport. She made a large press conference, made statements about her commitment to rebuilding this country, and then she was soon whisked away, headed back to Washington, DC. There's a city in ruins. A country which can do little, but wait for help to arrive. The international community responded in the way that you would expect it to, that is large amounts of money were committed, up to $13 billion from international relief organizations. And of course you had the official role of the State Department, which would be point on US taxpayer dollars going to Haiti for the purposes of relief. I want to assure the people of Haiti that the United States is a friend, a partner, and a supporter. Hillary Clinton's State Department would oversee the reconstruction effort, with chief of staff Cheryl Mills responsible for the allocation of US tax dollars through USAID. And Bill Clinton already appointed special envoy to Haiti for the United Nations, was named co-chair of the interim Haiti Recovery Commission, along with a former Haitian Prime Minister. I hope that it will be rebuilt in a much stronger and more sustainable way, and I think the Haitian is more than. So this was clearly a Clinton operation from the beginning. Now the Haitians had their own ideas about how best to rebuild their country. They wanted new roads, they wanted buildings rebuilt, and that's what you would expect. This is how you recover from an earthquake. The problem is that the Clinton's had their own agenda, the interests of major donors, who had invested interest in spending that money in Haiti in ways that would benefit them. And so you immediately had this clash between the Haitians and the Clinton's, and Haitians complained almost immediately that they were shut out of the decision making process. That it was really Bill Clinton and a few of his friends that were calling the shots on the IHRC, and they made some monumentally bad decisions that not only didn't benefit the Haitian people, but ended up putting money in the pockets of major Clinton donors who had economic stakes in Haiti. We have been united behind a single goal, making investments in this country's people and your infrastructure. So it's a classic example of what some people call disaster capitalism. Disaster capitalism in that a natural disaster creates opportunities for rebuilding to take place, but also for self enrichment to take place. And if you look at the Clinton's and the promises that were made and the results had actually followed, it is a tragic story of Troney Capitalism gone awry. The single largest relief project that the United States committed taxpayer dollars to, $124 million to be exact, was a project called Caracol, a textile factory that was built in the northern part of the country that was supposed to create some 60,000 jobs and was supposed to create tremendous economic growth. There's a problem here already. You see, the earthquake affected the southern part of Haiti, the northern part of the country was entirely unaffected. But who were the beneficiaries of this? Companies like Gap, Target, and Walmart to name a few. The Caracol factory was built, but didn't create 60,000 jobs. It created barely 5,000 jobs, but the major American companies who got textiles tear of free made it low wages benefited enormously. And the end effect on the Haitians was very, very minimal. If you look at some of the infrastructure projects that were undertaken, the Clinton's had very grand plans to build large tracts of homes and there were contractors that were selected for those projects. Sometimes the contractors had experience, sometimes they did not. There's one company in Florida that spent a million dollars getting equipment into Haiti. They had experience and disaster relief, but according to the owners of that company, they only made a small donation to the Clinton Foundation. And guess what? They didn't get any relief contracts. On the other hand, the contractors who did win the awards were given the opportunity to build homes and in some instances were supposed to build tens of thousands of homes for Haitians. They ended up building a fraction of that. For instance, New Settlements program was supposed to build 15,000 homes for 53 million dollars. Instead, it built 2600 homes less than a quarter of the original estimate for 90 million dollars or 47 million dollars over budget and they got away with it. So you had contracts going to these relief organizations that were also involved with the Clinton Global Initiative. And you had this one organization, Dahlberg, that was supposed to do an assessment for relocating people that suffered from the earthquake. They determined that people should be moved to a site that happened to be on a cliff that was highly unstable. USAID's Inspector General reviewed Dahlberg's recommendations and found them basically unusable. One member of the USAID shelter team was quoted by Rolling Stone magazine as saying that the recommendations were so bad, it looked like the team never even got out of their SUVs. Another person said that only one of the people that was sent to Haiti by Dahlberg actually spoke French. Telecom mogul Deniz O'Brien is one of the world's richest people and he's finding opportunities in the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. The Irish billionaire is the largest private investor in Haiti through his company Digicell and he's now leading the Clinton Global Initiative efforts down in Haiti. There'll be no one came out better in the Haitian Reconstruction effort than an Irish billionaire named Deniz O'Brien. He was a Clinton Foundation donor giving them between $5 and $10 million. He helped arrange speeches for Bill Clinton too. The interest of the Obama administration, particularly former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, you know all the different things that have happened to help Haiti get up off the floor have been led by the US. And he was the owner of something called Digicell, which is the cell phone company at the time of the earthquake. As part of that relief effort, the State Department run by Hillary Clinton wanted to fund a mobile money transfer service that would allow Haitian citizens to transfer and receive money on their phones. Well, Digicell applied to be the recipient of that grant money. Four weeks after their application, Digicell actually sponsored a speech for Bill Clinton in Jamaica and they paid him $225,000. And as it turns out within four months of that speech, Digicell would receive the first installment of that grant money. The earthquake actually has been great for Digicell and Deniz O'Brien. More than four years since a magnitude 7.0 earthquake devastated Haiti and outraged there is growing over the largely failed reconstruction effort despite the hundreds of millions of dollars in aid that has been collected and spent by the IHRC, the interim Haiti Recovery Commission. So whether you're talking about housing or cell phones, you see that the people that are closest to the Clintons have made out very well from the Haitian earthquake. The rest of the country, the ordinary people of Haiti, not so much. Haitian activists, stage of protest, outside Hillary Clinton's Van Hatton office. The demonstrators claim billions of dollars were stolen through the Haiti Reconcruction Commission headed by Bill Clinton. They also say Haiti was used as a cover for foreign governments, the funnel kickbacks that possibly hundreds of millions of dollars through the Clinton Foundation. They say it was done in exchange for favors that Hillary was doing for them as Secretary of State. The tragedy is we had an opportunity to rebuild in a way that would give the people of that country hope. Sadly, that opportunity was squandered and what took place rather than rebuilding Haiti was the self enrichment by friends of the Clintons. For all of Bill Clinton's talk about building Haiti back better, the fact remains that the most visible evidence of Clinton's role in the recovery isn't the improvement of daily life for everyday Haitians. But the construction of new luxury hotels just miles from the folks who have been living in tarps USAID handed out immediately after the earthquake. We are telling the world of the crimes that Bill and Hillary Clinton are responsible for in Haiti. But while the world eventually lost interest in Haiti's recovery, the influence of connections afforded to donors from the Clinton Foundation appeared to have been lessons learned by others. So how much to connections to the Clintons matter when you're talking about Haiti? Consider the case of gold mining. The government of Haiti had not granted a gold mining concession in 50 years. They decided to do so during the reconstruction of their country, which was being overseen by Bill and Hillary Clinton. What company did they select to get this gold mining permit? A company called VCS Mining. VCS Mining had very little experience in gold mining. But what did they have? They had connections. Shortly after they got that concession, someone joined their board of directors. It just happened to be Tony Rodham, brother of Hillary Rodham Clinton. It was a true disaster. A true disaster that followed the earthquake, which was the natural disaster. This was the man-made Clinton-caused disaster in relief that led to the wasting of enormous sums of money, the enrichment of elites that were friends with the Clintons, and the Haitians were left in a situation where their life was really not much better than it was the day after the earthquake happened. The United States of America An ambitious pipeline is firing off a war of opinions. Environmental activists marched in Washington today to protest plans for the Keystone XL Oil Pipeline. A $7 billion project to transport 800,000 barrels of tar sands oil a day from Canada down to the Gulf Coast. In Washington, a showdown on the center floor today over the Keystone XL pipeline, the vote to approve the controversial pipeline project, had big political implications. The pipeline would create 20,000 jobs, but an opponent say the environmental risk is too great. One of the touchstones of the climate change debate has been the Keystone XL pipeline. It's designed to carry oil from Canada through the United States to refineries in Louisiana and in Texas. The environmental movement has wholeheartedly rejected the steel from the beginning, because they believe that it's going to further contribute to the problems of climate change. One, we are the people. Two, you can't ignore us. Three, you need a partner. Now you would think that the Clintons would be opposed to the Keystone XL pipeline deal because of those concerns. And perhaps they might be except for one or two problems. Or should I say one or two million problems? You see, when Hillary Clinton became Secretary of State in late 2008, there was already an issue related to the Keystone XL pipeline sitting on her desk. She was going to have to sign an environmental and economic impact statement and decide whether the Keystone XL pipeline should go forward. At that precise time, Bill Clinton gets a lucrative offer of nearly $2 million to give 10 speeches in Canada for the first time ever from a company called TD Bank Investment Group. He gave the last speech in May of 2011. Three months later, Hillary State Department releases an environmental impact statement that was seen as largely supportive of the Keystone XL pipeline in a way that was meant to be a huge impact. In a way that was massively controversial, Hillary Clinton in effect was betraying the environmental movement by greenlighting this deal, which she had in her hands the power to kill this deal in its trip. It was shocking. Organizations like Greenpeace and Friends of the Earth were stunned. They wanted investigations, but everybody was mystified. Nobody could understand why Hillary Clinton would sign off on this deal, particularly when she had been in favor of dealing with climate change. And her boss, Barack Obama, by all indications, seemed to be opposed to this deal as well. It's also a time for a new approach to climate change. We know we've got to deal with global warming. We're seeing the effects of it. We need to invest in clean energy technology today so that we can create new, high-paying jobs to protect our environment, to grow our economy, and to finally break our addiction to foreign oil. How did we go from the Clintons being in favor of fighting climate change and dealing with fossil fuel dependence to Hillary Clinton signing off on the Keystone XL pipeline, the evidence that we found was that it was about the money. This was not a philosophical change. This was not a new way of thinking about global warming. This was a way of taking $2 million in cash to essentially buy a decision by the Secretary of State. Why is the TD Bank investment group so interesting? Because they just happened to be one of the largest shareholders in the Keystone XL pipeline itself. When we looked at Bill Clinton's pattern in giving speeches, we looked at who was paying him when they were paying him, and if they have ever paid for a speech before. What's so stunning is that TD Bank had never sponsored a speech by Bill Clinton before. And then suddenly, in late 2008, when Hillary Clinton has been announced to be the Secretary of State, and when sitting on her desk is the matter of the Keystone XL pipeline, they suddenly decide to sponsor these speeches. And when people realized that the Clintons had pocketed about $2 million at the precise time Hillary Clinton was making in this decision, it all now suddenly made sense. Because as we've seen repeated over and over and over again, when it comes to the Clintons, you have to follow the money. In the case of the Keystone XL pipeline, they seemed to have abandoned their principles, their commitment as it was to combat and global warming and dealing with our dependence on fossil fuels. They jettisoned that when $2 million showed up and suddenly came out in favor of the Keystone XL pipeline. When you see this sort of pattern of behavior, you can't come to any other conclusion that it's a system of paid-of-play. And again, other entities appear to have picked up on this business model too. While Bill Clinton has been paid enormous sums of money over the years to give speeches, unadvertisably gets a little less than $200,000 per speech. But something happened in late 2008. His speaking fees skyrocketed after he'd been at an office for years. The reason was, his wife had become Secretary of State. In fact, 11 of the 13 speeches for which Bill Clinton has been paid half a million dollars or more, precisely when Hillary was the most powerful diplomat in the world. You will never contribute to an organization that will give you a higher probability of having your good intentions, turn into real positive changes and other people's lives. That will give you a better chance on what you've done here tonight. The biggest speech paid-of came from the Swedish Telecom Company, Ericsson, and it's a very, very unusual and troubling story. Now, Ericsson is a Swedish Telecom Company that in 2009 and 2010 was in trouble with Hillary Clinton State Department, because Ericsson was selling a lot of telecom equipment to Iran, to Belarus, and to other oppressive governments, about which the State Department was concerned. Ericsson risked being put on a list by the federal government in the United States for trading with an enemy state. There was actually an effort being put forward in Washington to broaden Iranian sanctions to include the very technologies that Ericsson was selling to the Iranian government. So it's against this background that Ericsson decided now might be a good time to hire Bill Clinton to give a speech. They had never paid for a speech by him before, and they decided to go in big, $750,000 for a single speech. Seven days after he gave that speech, Hillary State Department came out with a statement, which said, we are not going to broaden sanctions on Iran to include technologies like telecom. We're going to rely and expect companies like Ericsson to police themselves. It was a massive win for Ericsson. Ericsson was able to avoid having to deal with a regulatory battle in Washington, giving up contracts that were highly lucrative in these countries, and being put on a list that would create an enormous diplomatic problem for them, all because essentially they paid Bill Clinton to give a speech for $750,000. Will you continue to give speeches? Oh yeah, I got to pay our bills. So the question is why do we see the Clintons reversing decades of policy positions that they've held so closely on issues like human rights and environment. And a big clue comes to the folks that are giving the Clinton Foundation literally tens of millions of dollars. And one, if not the biggest donor to the Foundation, is a Canadian named Frank Juistra. Juistra is in the mining business, hardly something you'd call environmentally friendly, and he has interests all over the world. And he used his relationship with the Clintons to benefit those interests, regardless of the environmental concerns. A great example of this is what happened in Colombia. What's so interesting about the relationship that the Clintons have with Frank Juistra is they tend to show up in these foreign countries together at the same time. Frank Juistra has made billions of dollars over the years in the so-called Penny Stock Market in Canada, which is highly open to manipulation. He's been very successful in this area. Now the Vancouver Stock Exchange is not like the New York Stock Exchange in the United States. This is the stock market or an exchange that is dominated by Penny Stocks. It made up a lot of natural resources stocks. It's sort of the wild, wild west of investing. It's called Dodge City sometimes, and the reason is, because there's a lot of speculators, there's a lot of misinformation that's put around, and there are a lot of mining companies don't really have any assets, but will proclaim to have gotten the rights to some lucrative gold. So, in the old mine, let's say, and then they send that news out to the public in the hope that it will lead to a flood of people buying the Penny Stock so the shareholders can sell their assets. So, in June of 2010, Bill Clinton and Frank Juistra fly to Bogota, Colombia, and who arrives there at roughly the same time, Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton. The big thing from the news conference was where Bill and Hillary were dining the other night in Bogota. I had a chance to talk to about her dinner experience in the Zona Rosa, and here's what she had to say. Dinner was good. It was excellent in every way. So it was like eating in the States, but eating in Bogota. Well, it was a real treat to be in Bogota, and to be with people who love this city so much, including my husband. Now, in her memoirs, Hillary Clinton says that this is just a happy coincidence. But when you see what follows, you realize that this is no coincidence. The following morning, Bill Clinton has a breakfast meeting with the outgoing president of Colombia, President Arebe. Then like a tag team, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has a noon lunch meeting with him, and she grants him several favors, including technical agreements that the Colombian government wants. In the days that follows something dramatic happens, Frank Juistra has three companies that get major concessions from the Colombian government, Pacific Rubialas, Petro America, and Prima-Columbia properties. One of those Prima-Columbia properties gets a concession to cut timber in a rainforest in Colombia, along the Pacific coast. And that timber is not intended to export to the United States, but is intended for export to China. There's an outrage and upset environmentalists who realize what's going on, and eventually that permit is ganked by a future president of Colombia, but not before Frank Juistra's company is able to profit from cutting down these rainforests. Which again, is a behavior that runs so contrary to what the Clinton's profess to be in favor of. We all know that in order to build low carbon economies of the future, we need sustainable forests. I also know the future of our planet depends on healthy, standing forests. They've talked about the problems of deforestation. They've talked about the problems of the need for successful growing forests to mitigate a carbon dioxide in the air. And yet, when this commercial opportunity was presented to a major donor of theirs, they seem to be very much supportive of that and in fact help to get him those concessions. He deserves a credit for this. This was his on-demon man and he raised the money. And it's an astonishing achievement. My job is to make sure that it's not in vain, that he gets the return of his investment and his compassion and his commitment. The Clinton's appear to have changed their stance on issues even more significant than the environment, in ways that benefit those who have put money in their pockets. I represent a president and a country committed to a vision of a world without nuclear weapons. And to taking the concrete steps necessary that will help us get there. The Indian nuclear deal, I think, is so troubling because this is a core national security issue. The Indian nuclear deal is a core national security issue. One of the signature achievements in foreign policy for Bill Clinton was pushing the test band treaty and the non-proliferation treaty. Today in New York, the United Nations General Assembly voted overwhelmingly to adopt the comprehensive nuclear test band treaty and open it for signature later this month. The MPT has been sort of the holy grail when it comes to nuclear disarmament, something that the Clinton's had been supportive of, not just for years but for decades. That was all thrown a sunder in 1998 when the Indian government tested nuclear weapons underground. India's action threatens the stability of Asia and challenges the firm and international consensus to stop all nuclear testing. These were tests that truly shocked the world. Even the CIA was not aware that these tests were about to take place. In 2005, the Indian government wanted to get these sanctions lifted. Not only do they have an interest in expanding their civilian nuclear base, they live in a neighborhood where some pretty tough customers and rivals have nuclear weapons themselves. First of all, you've got Pakistan, which is right next door, which is widely believed to have nuclear weapons, and then you have China a long time rival of India, which has a nuclear arsenal. The Clinton said that they were in favor of giving the Indian government some access, but the problem is they didn't go nearly as far as the Indian government wanted. So in 2005, they started making donations to the Clinton Foundation. This morning, yet another shady donation to the Clinton Foundation has surfaced this time tied to a donor from India, apparently a friend of Bill Clinton. We're talking about tens of millions of dollars from Indian interests flowing into the Clinton Foundation. And we're talking about at least hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars, in speeches that Bill Clinton was paid by interested parties in the Indian nuclear deal. Amar Singh, according to Clinton Disclosures, has given between one in five million dollars to the Clinton Foundation and the push to get them to support Indian access to nuclear technology. He's a member of parliament who has gotten in fist fights on the floor of the parliament, who's been charged with bribing members of parliament to get certain pieces of legislation passed. You see, the problem is when you ask Amar Singh, he says it wasn't my money, I don't have that kind of money. I couldn't have given him that amount of money. And in fact, when you look at Indian public records, you see that Amar Singh doesn't have a net worth anything close to be able to give that amount of money. And when the money comes from, well, sometimes the most obvious answer is the correct one. Sent chat walls in Indian businessman who has been close to the Clinton for years, he pledged to raise five million dollars for her 2008 presidential campaign. And Bill Clinton was at his son's wedding. They actually named him as the trustee of the Clinton Foundation. When Hillary Clinton was first running for the Senate in 2000, sent chat wall was in trouble with a federal agency called the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. He basically owed them millions of dollars from unpaid loans. Well, in 2000, chat wall throws a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton and he brings in half a million dollars. A few months later, with Bill Clinton still president of the United States, sent chat walls case with the FDIC was abruptly settled for Amir $125,000. So basically, the federal government got pennies on the dollar. He would actually go on to plead guilty for funneling $180,000 in illegal campaign content. And he would have sent a bunch of contributions to Hillary Clinton among others. And no one seems to have made the connection. Well, maybe one reason no one made the connection is because the Clinton Foundation mysteriously erased any mention of sent chat wall from the website once he had admitted to his illegal activity. So here we are years later and we've got this donation and a guy's name who swears he didn't actually make the donation. He's got this longtime Clinton benefactor who actually gets the highest civilian award in India because of his role in changing Hillary Clinton's mind on this new deal. Pansing Chatvah says he's worked with everybody and even laid the foundation of the Indo-US nuclear deal. So the Indian government says that they've given you this award for your role in pushing the Indo-US nuclear deal forward. How exactly would you describe the role you played in this? Well, I can tell you Indian nuclear power deal. If you look at it, I'm the first one and laid the foundation. On the eve of the vote in 2008 to approve Indian access to U.S. civilian nuclear technology, Omar Singh, who barely knows Hillary Clinton, had a two hour meeting with her where they discussed the Indian nuclear deal. Omar Singh says that the dinner meeting resulted in her telling him that she was supportive of the deal and that she was making efforts to make sure that the deal did get through. And low and behold, by 2008, Hillary Clinton was fully in support and in favor of this policy in a way that was a complete reversal of the position that she had taken before. In other words, the flow of money had led the Clinton to change their positions on the non-proliferation treaty and specifically India getting access to U.S. nuclear technology. This was a decision that was wholly out of step, wholly inconsistent with a progressive liberal agenda. Hillary Clinton made a decision of reversing her previous position after the flow of funds to the Clinton Foundation and her husband gave some speeches in India. But this wouldn't be the last time Hillary reversed herself regarding nuclear weapons technology. Shockingly, Bill and Hillary would end up receiving money from folks that were looking to make something happen a lot closer to home. I think the Russian uranium story is perhaps the most shocking and most blatant example of how the Clinton's operate. This is a story about the Russian state nuclear agency, American uranium, $145 million in cash and the Clintons. At the end of the day, this is a story about buying influence and selling influence. The Clintons are the sellers of influence, the Canadian investors and the Russians are the buyers. Bill Clinton had gone to the Central Asian country of Kazakhstan in 2005 with Frank Juistra. Kazakhstan is a country that's been run since the collapse of the Soviet Union by a dictator named Nazar Bayev who shuts down political opposition and tortures political opponents. The ostensible purpose of the visit to Kazakhstan by Bill Clinton was to talk with Nazar Bayev about AIDS HIV. The problem is Kazakhstan really does not have an AIDS HIV problem. So that explanation really doesn't make sense. What makes far more sense is that Frank Juistra wanted access to very lucrative Kazakh uranium mines. Kazakhstan is one of the largest producers of uranium in the world. Bill Clinton arrives there with Frank Juistra and they have a series of meetings with Kazakh officials. There's a press conference where Bill Clinton stands with a dictator of Kazakhstan and he praises the human rights record. He praises that elections are being held in the country and he even says that Kazakhstan should head up something called the OSCE, which is the organization for security and cooperation in Europe. Think about that for a second. Bill Clinton is saying that a known human rights violator who's been condemned by human rights organizations around the world should head up a human rights organization. They go from a press conference to a dinner where Frank Juistra, Nazar Bayev, the dictator of Kazakhstan and Bill Clinton meet and talk. Well, two days after that meeting, Frank Juistra finally gets his uranium concessions with hundreds of millions of dollars. A couple of weeks after that, Bill Clinton gets his $30 million for Frank Juistra, the first payment in what will become more than $100 million in pledges and commitments and donations made by Frank Juistra. So it's really in a way a simple story in that they all are walking away from the table with something that they want. Nazar Bayev is getting the legitimacy of an ex-president saying what a nice and kind leader he is, Frank Juistra gets his uranium concession and Bill Clinton and his foundation get cold hard cash. Now let's move to chapter two of this story, which is even more sinister. You see, the international uranium market is very competitive. The crematorium sees dominance and control of the uranium market as a source of national power. Frank Juistra takes that uranium concession he got in Kazakhstan and puts it into a company in a so-called reverse merger, which is one way for a private company to go public to form something called uranium. It's a company traded on the stock market in Canada and they start acquiring uranium concessions in places like Wyoming, Texas, New Mexico, and Utah. And by 2009, they have what is expected to be 50% of future uranium production in the United States. This gets the interest of Vladimir Putin and the Russian government. And in fact, there are state department cables that were leaked through WikiLeaks, which show that Hillary was aware of the fact that the Russians took great care to try to dominate the international uranium market. Well, the Russians want to buy this asset and they offer a 40% silver price on the share of the stock. And for this transaction to go through, it has to be approved by the US federal government. Why? Because uranium is regarded as a critical industry in the United States. After all, this is used for our civilian nuclear reactors and goes into nuclear weapons. So it goes before the federal government where it needs to be signed off by a series of federal agencies, including the Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton. As Hillary Clinton is contemplating this, shareholders in uranium one, including Frank Juistra, have sent more than $145 million to the Clinton Foundation. The chairman of that company at the precise time is a guy named Ian Telfer, who is also making donations to the Clinton Foundation. As is Frank Holmes, who is another major uranium one, shareholder. And Hillary Clinton, who has a record of opposing precisely these kinds of deals, comes out and says, you know what? I think this is a good deal. Let's let Vladimir Putin take control of what is now 20% of US uranium production. Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton are the only figures in American politics who are willing to do this deal and who could actually pull it off. Because they had a reputation that runs so contrary to what they're doing. I mean, this is what the Clinton Foundation does, right? This is what they talk about politically. They're support for human rights. They're concerns about proliferation. They're concerns about issues related to Russian aggression. There's no doubt that when Putin came back in and said he was going to be president, that did change the relationship. We have to stand up to his bullying and... What's so interesting when you consider this uranium deal are the actions of a small Canadian investment firm called Salida Capital. Salida Capital in 2010, as this deal was going down, committed to give millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation and they also sponsored a speech by Bill Clinton in Canada. Salida Capital is also the name of a wholly owned subsidiary of Rossitom. Who is Rossitom? Well, this is the government agency in Russia that controls their nuclear arsenal, that built nuclear reactors in Iran, and engages in nuclear technology exchanges with road countries. Like North Korea. What this means in essence is that the Russian government, specifically Rossitom, was funneling money through a subsidiary directly to the Clinton Foundation. But the payday didn't end there. Four months before Hillary Clinton State Department would sign off on the Russian purchase of uranium one, Bill Clinton got paid $500,000 to give a single speech in Moscow. He was being paid by a firm called Renaissance Capital, which has a long history of association with Russian intelligence services. What makes this speech stand out is not only the timing of when he's being paid, but the amount that he's being paid. You see, the last time Bill Clinton gave a speech in Russia was five years earlier. At that time, he was paid about a one-third of what he was being paid this time. Why is Russian control of 20% of US uranium so troubling? If you're in an era where nuclear weapons are a reality, where nuclear energy is an important component of energy production in the United States, and an increasingly around the world, control of uranium is absolutely crucial. At unlike oil or natural gas can be found in so many places around the world, there are precious few places where you can find significant and large amounts of uranium that you can produce on a commercial scale. What we've essentially done is hand at this precious resource to Vladimir Putin and the Russian government. They're not only engaged in aggression in places like Ukraine, but they've been very aggressive in fighting American interests around the globe. So, Russia's not an ally, Russia's not a friend, Vladimir Putin's Russia is a rival of the United States, and yet we've given them control over this precious resource. Uranium, the key mineral in nuclear generation, is a domestic resource. This is what's going to power America. I think a lot of people in Middle America would be surprised to know that the Russian government is doing business in places like Colorado or Wyoming or Utah. These are small mining towns. These are operations that have existed for a while that have been under the control of American companies or for a while Canadian companies, but it's now Russian companies that control this and those companies are controlled by the Russian government. Having read through the archives of the KGB, the files that they have been released, I can tell you that they look at the United States as weak and ineffectual. This is a fuggish government that is engaged in massive human rights violations. There are opponents of this regime that have been killed or have disappeared. There's been persecution of human rights organization. There's been persecution of homosexuals. And it's shocking and stunning to me that there has not been more attention focused to this fact that we have given this critical resource to somebody who has engaged in so much nefarious behavior. Greetings from Washington. I want to thank all of you for your work to root out corruption, that Wikens economic development feeds black markets and organized crime and undermines the promise of democracy. We are together to eradicate corruption in our own countries. We should also maintain the highest standards of transparency and accountability in our development efforts around the world. Corruption in emerging markets and fragile democracies undermines the confidence of citizens and investors alive. While responsible governance helps to foster sustainable economic development and political stability. I believe in the oldest data in American politics, which is follow the money. Enormous amounts of money have flowed to the Clintons, from foreign governments, foreign financiers and businesses. Some of that money lands in their pocket, some of it lands in their foundation. It's a pattern we've seen repeated over and over and over again all around the world. It's not a coincidence. Money exchanges, hands and favors are done. Now Clinton friends and supporters will say there's no smoking gun, but look at American political history. People are convicted all the time for a pattern of behavior, where for example they're engaged in insider trading on the sock market. So for example, you have a foreign corporation or a foreign government that wants something from the State Department while Hillary Clinton is a Secretary of State. They will make a large payment to the Clinton Foundation. That will be followed by favorable action on their behalf. If that happens one or two times, you might say, look, it's just a coincidence. But when you see the pattern recreated over and over and over again, you have to recognize that these events are connected. They've created a model for massive self enrichment that allows you to go into so-called public service. They get extremely rich at the same time. And when friends and allies say that the Clinton's aren't really that interested in money, their actions show otherwise. What's so shocking to a lot of people is that making of that money requires them to betray their progressive values, the environment, labor unions, women's rights, human rights. The Clinton's are doing business and growing rich with the favor of the very individuals who you would expect to be their political offices. For a very long time in American history and probably still to this day, one of the worst things they could be said about you as a politician is that you are on the take from foreign interests. What the Clinton's have essentially done is busted down the door and robbed the bank of that concept. So people think of the Clinton's taking foreign money. They think it's maybe an insurance company from Great Britain or they think it's from a supermarket chain in Canada. The fact of the matter is a lot of that money comes from the darkest worst corners of the world. A country's like Nigeria and Russia and the habit of giving money to politicians and not wanting something back. The Clinton's are glad to take this money. It's made them fabulously wealthy. But what has it done for us? Before we had to worry about money from Wall Street and Big Labor, now we have to worry about it coming from around the world and infecting our politics and damaging our politics, everything from our uranium policy to our human rights policy. Nothing seems to be safe anymore. How is this not corruption? How is this not a crime? With the Clinton's nothing is sacred. Everything is for sale. But we are the ones who are paying the price. Maybe, just maybe, the American people are tired of being sold out. The Clinton's is a very important country. The Clinton's is a very important country. The Clinton's is a very important country. The Clinton's is a very important country. The Clinton's is a very important country. The Clinton's is a very important country. The Clinton's is a very important country. The Clinton's is a very important country. The Clinton's is a very important country. The Clinton's is a very important country. The Clinton's is a very important country.
