As Hillary Clinton heads out of the Democratic National Convention to hit the general election campaign trail, allegations of Clinton Foundation corruption are alive and well and one writer is urging Americans across the country to help hold the Clintons accountable.
Dr. Jerome Corsi is an investigative reporter for WND.com and the author, most recently, of “Partners in Crime: The Clintons’ Scheme to Monetize the White House for Personal Profit.” His book comes more than a year after Peter Schweizer’s “Clinton Cash” detailed alleged State Department favors Hillary Clinton performed for nations and individuals that donated to the Clinton Foundation or paid Bill Clinton hundreds of thousands of dollars for a speech.
Corsi says his efforts to shut down the Clinton Foundation have a much simpler focus.
“What I’m maintaining is there is a much easier offense to go after and that’s what’s called inurement. Inurement is a criminal offense and it means yourun a charity for your own benefit,” said Corsi.
He says that is much easier to prove than the kind of corruption alleged by Schweizer.
“You don’t need a quid pro quo. You just show the financial reporting is so apparently fraudulent and so masking of money that you know went through the corporation because the United Nations reports more that they gave to the Clinton Foundation reports they got. Where did the additional missing money go?” asked Corsi.
Corsi says the Clinton Foundation inurement began after the Clintons turned a foundation designed to raise money for Bill Clinton’s presidential library. After leaving the White House, the Clintons used the foundation for disaster relief in placed like India and Haiti. Corsi says Bill Clinton would travel to the scenes of disaster, pose with the survivors, raise hundreds of millions of dollars for the relief effort and then spend just a tiny fraction on the stated mission.
“Money gets ripped off in this grifter scheme and enriches the Clintons. You have to ask yourself. They have these $100 million net worths and they’ve never held a job except for the Clinton Foundation. Where did they get all this money except to rip it out of the foundation?” asked Corsi, who refers to the Clinton Foundation as a “vast criminal enterprise.”
The instinctive response to that question is that the Clintons have raked in millions of dollars for their speaking engagements. But Corsi says the money trail there is very murky as well.
“You can’t tell where the speaking fees went. Were they foundation related? Bill Clinton sets up a dummy corporation, WJC LLC,” said Corsi. “He has a pass through account in it, where he is able to take the money through various accounts that he passes it through, comes through this WJC pass through, goes out to other nominal accounts. This is the type of thing drug cartels or terrorists do. It’s classic money laundering.”
Corsi says the Clinton Foundation cannot be confronted through the federal government, because we’ve seen that Uncle Sam will not punish Democrats when Democrats are in power.
“Every criminal in the world knows that this scheme is underway. The only people being fooled by it are the citizens of the United States, who are still under the illusion the Department of Justice, the FBI or the IRS operates for equal justice under the law. It doesn’t, not under the Democrats,” said Corsi.
As a result, Corsi says the path to holding the Clintons accountable must begin in the states.
“Any one state can shut down the Clinton Foundation. A person who’s given a dollar to the foundation says, ‘I’ve been defrauded.’ A state attorney general can call for a criminal investigtation and suspend the activities of the Clinton Foundation internationally until the determination is made as to whether it’s a legitimate charity,” said Corsi.
Corsi is urging Americans to bombard the attorney general in their state to demand answers. He says without such scrutiny, a Hillary Clinton presidency would make past Clinton Foundation abuses pale in comparison.
“If Hillary Clinton gets in the White House, it’ll be a grifter’s wet dream. You’ll have Bill Clinton at the foundation and Hillary as head of state. No grifter ever fell more into the lap of luxury,” said Corsi.
