Things aren't looking very good for the Clinton Foundation.
This complaint is exactly what Charles Ortel has been saying that the Clinton Foundation has been doing, and now we have a criminal complaint filed.
We'll have to keep an eye on this, and see where it goes.
Former President Bill Clinton apparently misled Aussie officials in 2006 when he signed a $25 million memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the Clinton Foundation and the Australian Governmentâs Department of Foreign Affairs (DFAT) in 2006, according to a complaint filed Thursday with the FBI.
The MOU committed the funds collected from Australian taxpayers to the American charity for medical projects it agreed to conduct inChina, Papua New Guinea, and Vietnam. The foundation also agreed to match the $25 million from its own funds under its Clinton HIV/Aids Initiative (CHAI).
The problem, according to Michael Smith, an investigative reporter and retired Australian police detective, is that Clinton was not at the time a director of the foundation that was created in 1997 to build and operate his presidential library in Little Rock, Arkansas.
Clinton was also barred from legally representing the foundation for five years after his losing his law license in 2001 in connection with his false testimony to the U.S. government during the Monica Lewinsky scandal, which led to his impeachment by the House of Representatives in 1998.
Actually coming out to the public with this will actually save him. The Clintons are less likely to have anything “happen” to him with all the attention now on him/them.
