WHAT DID CHELSEA KNOW, AND WHEN DID SHE KNOW IT? – AT 12:52 P.M. ET: There are indications that Chelsea Clinton, who might be first daughter for the second time, had suspicions about the workings of the Clinton Foundation, and made them known. From Daily Caller:
Chelsea Clinton’s bold decision in 2011 to launch an “internal investigation” into the finances of the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative was the equivalent of a declaration of war by the first daughter and a bombshell about the financial mess she discovered at the foundation.
The latest revelation came out Tuesday in a new batch of WikiLeaks emails sent to and from Clinton confidant John Podesta, who now is Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign chairman.
Two emails — one dated Nov. 12, 2011 and another dated Jan. 4, 2012 — show Chelsea was aggressively looking into the foundation’s money flows and talking to others about it.
Her actions worried President Bill Clinton’s long-time handler Doug Band, who complained to Podesta about Chelsea’s intervention into the internal operations of the foundation.
The disclosure suggests that Chelsea was shocked by what she found inside her parent’s organization that secured millions of dollars from despots, Eastern European tycoons, Arab Sheiks and foreign billionaires — all of whom also were seeking favors from her mom and dad.
COMMENT: Hillary Clinton may well be in a position to pay those favors on January 20th. I hope the despots can wait that long. We don't want to make anyone angry.
