Podesta Steps down for no reason... right? (dnc trolls should love this)
- Thread starter jem
- Start date
you can bury your head in the sand and ask as many irrelevant questions as you wish.
or you can understand these guys are as crooked and corrupt as sin... and that most likely manafort was buying access to hillary through Tony because John Podesta told him it was the way hillary would do business.
just watch the Carlson video above..
and spare us the fox news or tucker carlson lack of credibility crap. your sources frequently have far less credibility.
and hillary and bill took in millions of dollars from putin.
and to use your favorite rhetorical device...
Why the hell would putin pay millions if it was not for corruption?

Uh, oh. I said that mannaforte would dominate the first half of the week and then it would rapidly start shifting over to dem affiliatiates after the middle of the week.
I guess some things are moving ahead of schedule. Was not expecting this type of thing until Thursday.
My bad!

that is funny... if you dnc trolls were not so duplicitous... in almost every post...
here is another data point.
Podesta Group is "Company" A in the indictment with Mannafort.

WASHINGTON — The lobbying firms the Podesta Group and Mercury Public Affairs are the unnamed companies in the grand jury indictment of former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and his deputy, Rick Gates, according to three sources with knowledge of the investigation.
The indictment, unsealed Monday, refers to "Company A" and "Company B" as the firms Manafort and Gates solicited in 2012 to lobby on behalf of the Ukranian government. Company A is Mercury Public Affairs and Company B is the Podesta Group, the sources said.
The revelation of the companies’ identities points to more details about the players involved in the high-stakes venture run by Manafort and Gates to push the interest of a pro-Russia Ukranian political party inside the United States. It also provides a glimpse into the material special prosecutor Robert Mueller has corroborated on both companies and the potential legal repercussions both groups could face.

Yes he is under investigation.
The fbi and Mueller and the house committee are absolutely investigating all individuals who were involved in the transfer of 12 million dollars to the law group from the dnc- and from which the fusion/Russian kgb connection was financed. The house committee also has an investigation going. Not just Mueller.
Right now, absolutely no one in hillarys campaign or at the dnc says that they know anything about the 12 million except their records show 12 million going from the dnc to their law group. Dnc defends itself from accusations that they did not report the payment to fusion as required by law by arguing that it was lumped in with the payment to the law firm group. Thus they were forced to admit that it occurred.
I am going to guess we have not heard the last of it. And I am going to guess that Hillary's statement, and Podesta's statement as campaign chair, and Hillarys top two campaign managers- all arguing that they know nothing- will not go away anytime soon. Absolutely no one has claimed management and oversight and knowledge of that 12 million.
More to come. much, much more. Some portion of those funds paid oversees operatives, including a kgb agent.

Yet the liberal MSM is still going with the "opposition research story" while at the same time everyone in the DNC including Hillary/Wasserwitch/perez/podesta etc deny knowing anything.
Yet the liberal MSM is still covering for these dirt bags with the opposition research story .
So which is it , opposition research or not knowing anything ,because it can't be both !
Oh what a tangle web they weave.

hard to prove that the job on the board of directors was a quid pro quo... but look a the incredible timing.
could not be more swampy.

As Russian interests gradually took control of Uranium One millions of dollars were donated to the Clinton Foundation between 2009 and 2013 from individuals directly connected to the deal including the Chairman of Uranium One, Ian Telfer. Although Mrs Clinton had an agreement with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors to the Clinton Foundation, the contributions from the Chairman of Uranium One were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons.
When the New York Times article was published the Clinton campaign spokesman, Brian Fallon, strongly rejected the possibility that then-Secretary Clinton exerted any influence in the US goverment's review of the sale of Uranium One, describing this possibility as "baseless".
Mr Fallon promptly sent a memo to the New York Times with a rebuttal of the story (Podesta Email ID 1489).
In this memo, Mr Fallon argued: "Apart from the fact that the State Department was one of just nine agencies involved in CFIUS, it is also true that within the State Department, the CFIUS approval process historically does not trigger the personal involvement of the Secretary of State. The State Department’s principal representative to CFIUS was the Assistant Secretary of State for Economic, Energy and Business Affairs. During the time period in question, that position was held by Jose Fernandez. As you are aware, Mr Fernandez has personally attested that “Secretary Clinton never intervened with me on any CFIUS matter.”
What the Clinton campaign spokesman failed to disclose, however, was the fact that a few days before sending his rebuttal to the New York Times, Jose Fernandez wrote on the evening of the 17 April 2015 to John Podesta following a phone call from Mr Podesta (Email ID 2053): "John, It was good to talk to you this afternoon, and I appreciate your taking the time to call. As I mentioned, I would like to do all I can to support Secretary Clinton, and would welcome your advice and help in steering me to the right persons in the campaign".
Five days after this email (22 April 2015), Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon wrote a memo to the New York Times, declaring that "Jose Fernandez has personally attested that 'Secretary Clinton never intervened with me on any CFIUS matter',” but Fallon failed to mention that Fernandez was hardly a neutral witness in this case, considering that he had agreed with John Podesta to play a role in the Clinton campaign.
The emails show that the contacts between John Podesta and Jose Fernandez go back to the time of internal Clinton campaign concern about the then-forthcoming book and movie "Clinton Cash" by Peter Schweizer on the financial dealings of the Clinton Foundation.
In an email dated 29 March 2015 (Email ID 2059), Jose Fernandez writes to Podesta: "Hi John, I trust you are getting a brief rest after a job well done. Thanks no doubt to your recommendation I have joined the CAP [Center for American Progress] board of trustees, which I'm finding extremely rewarding."
