John Podesta, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s 2016 national campaign chairman, may have violated federal law by failing to disclose the receipt of 75,000 shares of stock from a Kremlin-financed company when he joined the Obama White House in 2014, according to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group.
Joule Unlimited Technologies — financed in part by a Russian firm — originally awarded Podesta 100,000 shares of stock options when in 2010 he joined that board along with its Dutch-based entities: Joule Global Holdings, BV and the Stichting Joule Global Foundation.
When Podesta announced his departure from the Joule board in January 2014 to become President Obama’s special counsellor, the company officially issued him 75,000 common shares of stock.
The Schedule B section of the federal government’s form 278 which — requires financial disclosures for government officials — required Podesta to “report any purchase, sale or exchange by you, your spouse, or dependent children…of any property, stocks, bonds, commodity futures and other securities when the amount of the transaction exceeded $1,000.”
The same year Podesta joined Joule, the company agreed to accept 1-Billion-Rubles — or $35 million — from Rusnano, a state-run and financed Russian company with close ties to President Vladimir Putin.
Anatoly Chubais, the company CEO and two other top Russian banking executives worked together with Podesta on the Joule boards. The board met six times a year.
Ron Hosko, a former FBI assistant director said because of the Kremlin backing, it was essential Podesta disclose the financial benefits he received from the company.
Trump seemed to have prior knowledge of this as he urged his Twitter followers to watch the show about Podesta’s exposure.

This is GAME OVER! After spending the last six months accusing Trump of being a Russian agent, there is basically no way the democrats can live this down.
The media has no right to talk about Trump-Russia ties. It’s over, we now have definitive proof of Clinton-Russia ties! Will the media go after the Democrats now? Let’s see…
Russia/Trump was always a good lie because its exactly what the Clinton/Dems were doing.
blame others for what you are guilty of even though nobody is talking about it
classic dick my own ass technique!
Investigate him after Trump.
You guys know you already beat Hillary, right?
sources, links?
meme the shit out of this with accurate facts.

Shes not in prison yet
is it even a coincidence when all of the accused kiddy diddlers look as mentally unstable and willing to do such a thing as him
John Podesta, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s 2016 national campaign chairman, may have violated federal law by failing to disclose the receipt of 75,000 shares of stock from a Kremlin-financed company when he joined the Obama White House in 2014, according to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group.

Proofs! Because Clinton's dealing were ok'ed by various federal institutions and the republicans.
That was legal.
Trump changed his mind of locking her up, so she's never going to prison.
He told us we're gonna keep on winning. That wasn't peptalk, it was a fact.
Podesta’s form 278 Schedule B is blank regarding his receipt of any stock from any company.
Liberals and conservatives alike tell TheDCNF Podesta should have disclosed the stock.
“Well Podesta should certainly have been more upfront in filling this out. Clearly, it should have been fully disclosed,” said Craig Holman, a lobbyist for the liberal group Public Citizen which was founded by Ralph Nader. “That’s the point of the personal financial disclosure forms, especially for anyone entering the White House,” he told TheDCNF in an interview.
“If the transfer of stock took place, it had to be disclosed,” added former U.S. Attorney Joseph DiGenova in an interview. “If he didn’t, clearly it’s a violation.”
The same year Podesta joined Joule, the company agreed to accept 1-Billion-Rubles — or $35 million — from Rusnano, a state-run and financed Russian company with close ties to President Vladimir Putin.
Anatoly Chubais, the company CEO and two other top Russian banking executives worked together with Podesta on the Joule boards. The board met six times a year.
Ron Hosko, a former FBI assistant director said because of the Kremlin backing, it was essential Podesta disclose the financial benefits he received from the company.
Can someone post different emails in which they're talking about connecting Russia and Trump?
Chequed. Fuck the elites, fuck moloch. Kek forever
Who cares? We need better relations with Russia. The fearmongering has to stop.
“I think in this case where you’re talking about foreign interests and foreign involvement, the collateral interest with these disclosure forms is put in the forefront of full disclosure of any foreign interest that you may have,” he told TheDCNF in an interview.
He added that Russian money was a continuing concern because it could “become a counterintelligence concern for America.”
“It’s a troubled question if you deliberately omit this information on the form,” Hosko, a 30-year veteran of the FBI told TheDCNF. “Were you completely truthful on this form that you filled out, yes or no?”
Podesta took possession of the stock in January 2014, the same month he entered the White House, according to WikiLeaks.
The existence of the 75,000 shares of Joule stock was first revealed by the Government Accountability Institute report issued last year.
But Podesta didn’t pocket all the shares. Correspondence from Podesta to Joule instructed the firm to transfer only 33,693 shares to Leonidio Holdings, a brand-new entity he incorporated only on December 20, 2013, about ten days before he entered the White House.
> beat hillary
She's still above ground and breathing.
1996 was a three-way split. Ross Perot ate up a massive portion of the republican party. He would have won if he didn't suspend his campaign over the death threats his daughter received.
A January 4, 2014 letter to Joule corporate secretary Mark Solakian, Podesta requested the transfer to Leonidio of 25,146 shares of series C stock and 8,547shares of Series C-II. The letter was released by WikiLeaks last October.
When WikiLeaks disclosed the existence of Leonidio last year, Josh Schwerin, a Clinton campaign spokesman, claimed Podesta — by then the campaign chairman — had “divested” himself of all the stock.
“When Podesta went back to the work at the White House, he worked with White House counsel to personally divest from Joule and ensure he was in full compliance with all government ethics rules,” Schwerin said, adding Podesta “filed the appropriate forms.”
But there is no indication the remaining 41,000 shares went to any other party.
The government does outline federal penalties for failing to report assets.
Title 5 of the U.S. Code stipulates the U.S. Attorney General can file a civil action “against any individual who knowingly and willfully falsifies or who knowingly and willfully fails to file or report any information that such individual is required to report.” The federal penalty can be up to $50,000 per count.
Leonidio is registered in Delaware as a limited liability corporation. Podesta listed the address of his daughter, Megan Rouse, in the incorporation papers. His mother and father also appear to be co-owners of Leonidio.
Most experts believe the Office of Government Ethics — which is supposed to monitor the accuracy of financial disclosure forms — is toothless.
One of the last individuals to be indicted for filing incorrect financial forms was former Rep. Walter Fauntroy in 1995. He was given parole.
“Unfortunately, the office of government ethics has no authority to make anyone do anything,” admitted Holman.
“It is an advisory agency, essentially,” the liberal lobbyist told TheDCNF. “It can develop rules, it can make orders, but if someone doesn’t abide by it. OGE has no enforcement authority.”
Scott Amey, general counsel for the nonpartisan Project on Government Oversight went further, telling TheDCNF in an interview, “OGE doesn’t really have the authority to open their own investigations and they don’t have authority to get into disciplinary action.”
But OGE has also been accused of partisanship. Earlier this year OGE Director Walter Shaub publicly criticized President Trump’s plan to deal with his sprawling businesses, calling his financial reorganization plan, “wholly inadequate.” He also called for the President to seek “total divestment” of his Washington, D.C. hotel.
Lock up all the Democrats. Fuck their nonsense. They want to declare war with the media.. there's going to be a time when we're going to declare war with guns. It's building. Nobody is happy with any of the Democrats and their corrupt ways. Lock them up or we need to shut them up.
Last week the General Services Administration said a set of additional rules to the federal lease for the downtown Washington hotel put it into “full compliance” with governmental ethics laws.
DiGenova said the office is biased and hypocritical in what cases they picked to criticize. “They have no problem tweeting out about Donald Trump’s hotels, but here on a clear violation they’re silent.”
TheDCNF made multiple inquiries to OGE and received no reply. TheDCNF inquiries to Mr. Podesta were not returned.
This could be important. Remember, they got Al Capone on tax evasion.

This is about exposing the hypocrisy of this Trump/Russia crap. This is about showing what horrible people and traitors the MSM and Democrats are. The only purpose in pushing the false Trump/Russia narrative is to undermine President Trump. They know there is no truth behind it and they know they're own candidate is the one who was really bought and paid for. I hope they burn in hell.
He's playing long-term for the win. Imagine the shitshow that would have gone down if he'd had Hillary arrested right away? The #ImWithHer faggots would have gone apeshit and instigated civil war at Obama's finger snapping, leading to either a damanged America more divided than ever or Trump impeached. No, Trump is setting up the playing field, gathering every single scrap of evidence necessary to cripple the cartel for good. It took decades for the left to shit America up as badly as it's gotten and it's going to take time to fix it. However, Trump works AHEAD OF SCHEDULE AND UNDER BUDGET.
>You are hopelessly new.
thats not what the invitation to John Kennedy's inaugural dinner thats framed in my office says, but go on
Gee, OP sure is a faggot in here.
The form was followed and Podesta followed the rule of the law. Now if you say the spirit/moral of the law was broken he can wait in line behind the thousands of politicians and the entire Trump administration.

Beating Hillary is not as satisfying, or as favorable to the Republic, as incarcerating most of the Democratic party.
Actually it was probably the neoconservatives, Perot was a centrist. He was a serious threat to both the GOP and the DNC. Bush would have beat Clinton if Perot didn't run.
Jeffry... do your thing!
hey... Trump said that he is more into making a success out of his first term... but the lefties keep pushing "muh Russia" narrative
that's what you get! this is for the 10th time... do not box Trump in a corner.... he perform best when he is under pressure..
he loves punching back his way out of a corner... that's his technique !
Pedosta isn't the President.
Umm no sweetie, she won the popular vote. She still needs to rot in jail though.
Remains to be seen whether she even did that. The recount in Michigan was hilarious, where they found that the nogs in Detroit were basically running the same ballots through the machines 6+ times.
podesta is a good man, the money will get some young kids a good education and some happy memories.
Sure all news is biased and funding by someone with an agenda, but that doesn't mean writers themselves are told to write for Soros/Mercer/Koch or whomever. Perhaps Podesta did break the law, but wouldn't it be more prude to investigate those currently in power instead of those not? I'm all up for trying the Democrats, but the executive office must be cleared, than the Dems and Republicans can be tried and purified. All of the enemies of the Republic must be brought to justice but those who can harm it the most must be brought first.
And farmers voted twice for Trump. Neither side is innocent so stop putting party before country.
I believe the Stein backed recount was a Trump op. That man is a fucking genius.
A handful of people trying to vote twice is a bit different than coordinated, centralized, and deliberate fraud on a massive scale.
Was there a coordinated and centralized attack? There's no unbiased proof that the democrats pushed a scandal which would be suicide if they were discovered. Why wouldn't republicans want the same thing? Gerrymandering is their legal way of doing it and neither side is innocent.
So wait, was he crypto/ourguy/ this whole time? First the emails now this.
>but that doesn't mean writers themselves are told to write for Soros/Mercer/Koch or whomever
right, but if they wrote some shit their funding didn't like they know they will lose their jobs unlike the people who write on here
>Perhaps Podesta did break the law,
we've all heard the video of him doing horrible shit and some of us have seen it, he's basically being boiled alive slowly or do you not remember Lynn Rothschild calling him out?
who says because you're not in office you don't have power? thats not how power works, read Fletcher Prouty's book to understand how this works a little better.
Executive branch hasn't been charged they are constantly being slandered, and we don't have time for this shit, we have money to make and projects to work on,
wigner effect is real and people are already dying from this, we need to get to work globally, that means every nation has to spend their budget to fix this problem or we can say goodbye to mankind, creating imaginary bad guys when we need those people's help to solve this problem is nonsense
Why is he making deals with Russians though.. is he a traitor? KGB spy?
>Why is he making deals with Russians though.
because he likes money and hookers, why does anyone makes deals with Russia
heres a link to the Mercer study

We have pretty solid proof that voter fraud is fairly widespread in Democratic stronghold cities (which is also why they are Democratic strongholds to begin with). Absurd turnout rates (sometimes exceeding 100%). We know illegals vote in VA and CA. It's not like Democratic fraud isn't well known - hell, it's been proven they did it in their own primaries.
are the legs at FNC reporting on this yet?
Its not a battle between individuals, its a battle between factions. One faction is in a hysteric state over Russia connections while having just supported a candidate with confirmable Russia connections. Not a great look. I will grant you, many on the left hated Hillary and were backing her as a lesser evil, but that part of the left is also the most suspiciously absent from the Russia narrative thus far
>It's not like Democratic fraud isn't well known
my dad's been voting republican his whole life, then he died and he's been voting democrat ever since
my gramps told me this joke in 1967
>Its not a battle between individuals, its a battle between factions
it's not even a battle it's a circus, a sideshow designed to sell papers,
both campaigns were funded primarily by people who sit on the board of Renaissance Technologies
the whole thing is a damn con, these people all make money together and their "fighting" is no different than Trump and Rosie Odonnell having a feud to get free press or the exact same shit with rappers Biggie Smalls and Tupac Shakur having a big fight and murdering each other to get record sales
it's the exact same scam these people all love each other, they just want you invested in either "team"
Fuck, this guy Pedesta is so crooked.
Not really, they have free reign to a point, unless they're attacking their funding.
The executive branch was slandered under Obama, Bush, Clinton, and all the way back to Adams. Trump needs to just work and ignore the noise. I know about power behind the scenes but do you think Trump is a puppet? Or that Podesta was controlling Clinton?
I'm not sure what your point is and if it is theoretical or practical.
Wigner Effect? As in déplacement of atoms? What?
He's making deals because people go where the money is. If he disclosed them than there's less reasons to be a traitor, but still iffy. Not like he was selling military secrets or anything. Joule is based in Massachusetts and is looking at renewable energy. Give me proof he's a traitor and I'll gladly march against him or any politician who has sold their country for a small amount of money.
More people = more chance for fraud. The Dems didn't stuff the ballots for Sanders, they just lied and cared about the South for representatives where a black muslim comments could run as republican and it would still be republican.
But Mercer has reason to publish this, unless you're also saying Trump is guilty too?
Damn 60,000,000$ is still pretty steep for a pedo version of this.
Furthermore, fraud is just another method of one suppression or ballot stuffing. Democrats do it more than republicans, but republicans use gerrymandering and voter id. It has always been some state congress official fucked or some illegal who voted twice and was deported, there's been nothing tying either back to the centralized administration of the Dems or Republicans
I appreciate the digging into the facts of this all, but I don't think that's the way to exploit this
Why get into the weeds when this is perfect opportunity to to just say there is a connection between undisclosed Podesta deals and Russians. It kills their Russia conspiracy, makes them look like idiots.
If they want to make a game if finding any business deals that relate to one of the largest nations on earth and using them to slander Trump, we need to play the same game- it's easy.
Gerrymandering doesn't affect Presidential elections. Voter ID isn't a means of suppressing anyone, except illegal voters. Seriously, even banana republics have commented on how retarded this Democratic talking point is.
don't post degenerate pron
Why is this so hilarious?
Thats certainly possible, my comment was only valid if we accept the framework they present. What is Renaissance Technologies?
This isn't even new shit. It's like the media just decided to cover it.
yeah well Trump and his associates are in bed with Russia aswell, so...
Tue but now it's coming in the open, fucking drain that fucking disgusting swamp!
>Gas chamber
BETCHA THINK YA HOT SHIT DONTCHA?
this, they will just ignore it. the average normie gets their news in 2 minute snippets from ((them)) and considers themselves informed , responsible and better than "those redneck republicunts".
I think that's the point- with a country as big as Russia literally almost everyone in business or politics has some sort of ties to them. Now the Democrats have been using those ties to call trump a traitor or a KGB spy.
But it's an idiotic plan because it makes you look like decievers and hypocrites when the other side inevitably finds some connection within the Democratic ranks. That's what is happening now.
They won't get the picture unless we go full Russia conspiracy in situations like this, and give them a taste of their own medicine.
well... yes, actually
technocracy.news
August 23 of last year. If they ran Trump's campaign, this would have been on the news 24-7 since August 23.
You think this was simply about beating her?
No, we need justice.
theres is something really weird about his face from that angle
that hooked nose that jaw
>So go fuck yourself sideways with a dufflebag full of hedgehogs.
I think the pre election Russia angle was legitimately meant to appeal to all voters. It failed and was partly responsible for their defeat.
The post election Russia angle was only meant for the democratic base. It was a purely "save our ass" move. The democratic leadership's poor strategy, policy, and candidates (could go on for days how they blew that election) resulted in arguably the biggest political humiliation of all time. In any normal circumstance, leadership would be held responsible by the voters- they would be labeled losers- and you would have likely seen a changing of the guard after such a defeat.
In order to save their ass and keep their flock from turning on them- they created this Russia angle to assure their base that the ass whipping wasn't actually the fault of the leadership. Deflect responsibility into a scapegoat so you continue to keep your power and prestige. It's all for their own idiotic base at this point- they seemed to have avoided the panic of being eaten alive by their base after the loss, but the cost is that they will never correct their mistakes and will continue to operate under leadership which has proven to be a liability.
This. She's enjoying freedom she doesn't deserve. On our dime. Send her bitch ass to the gallows.
>What is Renaissance Technologies?
it's a top earning private hedge fund, the major American donors to both the Clinton and Trump campaigns sit on it's board of directors
Robert Mercer got his daughter a spot on Trump's transition team, they're the big money agenda in the Trump administration,
Hillary investors will get their war with Russia damnit! Even if it means destroying Democrat credibility forever.
>She's enjoying freedom she doesn't deserve.
well the implication is that because of her ancestors work towards enriching the crown she is not able to be prosecuted in a crown court
or she would have been charged, it's like trying to charge the queen with money laundering, it's never going to happen, the queen owns that court and if she prefers not to follow certain laws she doesn't have to
But the "courts of public opinion" as they say, are beginning to slip from her and her backers' grasp. Hence the defeat in Nov.
When are you going to gas (((them)))?
Here they would already be in the gas chamber, wouldn't matter if it was the PM
>Like this disgusting pig

well you got that right, but remember there is nothing new and all this has happened before,
compare it to wrestling, some are cast as hero others as villain, then they switch with the favor of the crowd, which is predicted and managed easily
>You all got what you deserve for not voting for Gary Johnson.
there was absolutely no difference in any of the candidates in that one hedge fund was the sole donor for the general election funding and apparatus, how did you think you would change their minds about policy?
there are very few actions with the power to effect policy
you should all take a corse on government and run for office
I am enjoying these numbers
