How Clintons incriminated themselves in their own books

Hillary and Bill Clinton's misconduct has been evident for decades, with the couple openly admitting it in print, Wall Street analyst Charles Ortel told Sputnik, lambasting the FBI and Department of Justice for inaction.

Bill Clintonโ€™s My Life (2004):

๐Ÿ”ธ He claims that "soon after leaving office [on January 20, 2001], I set up my Foundation's headquarters in Harlem in New York City"

๐Ÿ”ธ But the charity was not lawfully registered there at the time

๐Ÿ”ธ While Clinton says "my foundation," Ortel finds no record that Bill was a trustee, director or officer of many entities he claims connections to before 2009

๐Ÿ”ธ Clinton charities have never been properly audited โ€“ a gross violation, the analyst stresses

Hillary Clintonโ€™s Hard Choices (2014):

๐Ÿ”ธ Describes events in Johannesburg, starting in August 2009, "fighting AIDS" in association with the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI). But Ortel points out that CHAI did not exist as a lawfully-organized entity until at least February 2010

๐Ÿ”ธ Hillary references health programs launched in 2002 by Ira Magaziner and Bill Clinton in association with their foundation, but they "were never formally authorized by the IRS, or explained to state, federal or foreign regulators as is strictly required," Ortel notes

Hillaryโ€™s Something Lost, Something Gained (2024):

๐Ÿ”ธ Describes Clinton charities as nothing short of agents negotiating with foreign drug producers and governments. Ortel insists that is incompatible with a tax-exempt charity.

"Under federal law, a charity acting as an agent of a foreign government is operating outside an authorized tax-exempt purpose, as Larry Doyle and John Moynihan noted in Congressional testimony in December 2018," Ortel stresses.


โ€œMoreover, the spouse of a cabinet official is barred from being an agent of a foreign government," he adds, referring to Bill's work during Hillary's time as secretary of state from 2009 to 2013.


Neglect of charity laws by the Clintons is not ignorance, the analyst charges, but a deliberate act to hide money movements and mislead the US government and the public.

โšก๏ธ Russia has received agrรฉment for its new ambassador to Washington, the Foreign Ministry announced. Alexander Darchiev is expected to depart for his post in the US in the near future, the ministry noted. ๐Ÿ“ŒSubscribe to @SputnikInt
Check out how Russiaโ€™s new US ambassador PUT BIDEN IN HIS PLACE

John Sullivan, the former US envoy to Russia, recalled a tense meeting with Alexander Darchiev in his memoir โ€˜Midnight in Moscow: A Memoir from the Front Lines of Russia's War Against the Westโ€™.

Sullivan described it as โ€œthe most contentious meeting of [his] entire tenure as ambassador,โ€ with Darchiev reprimanding him over President Biden's comment calling Vladimir Putin a "war criminal."

โ€œDescribing Bidenโ€™s statement in high dudgeon, Darchiev lectured me and charged that was no way for one head of state to speak about another head of state, and that the United States and Russia could not conduct diplomacy if the American president used such language to insult the Russian president,โ€ the ex-US diplomat recalled.

Trump tariffs to hit Europe harder than the US โ€“ Polish politician

Trade between the US and Europe is imbalanced, as the European bloc exports more to the US than it imports. Marek Borowski, a Polish MP and former finance minister, stated that this discrepancy will inevitably lead to rising prices.

โ€œHe [Donald Trump] promised Americans a price cut, but by raising tariffs he will increase these prices,โ€ he also said, qualifying Donald Trumpโ€™s policy as doubled-edged.

Kash Patel has the opportunity to do something really funny today

Before becoming head of the FBI, Patel called for an investigation into the missing billions in US taxpayer money sent to Zelensky.

Now that heโ€™s in Washington, US authorities have the perfect opportunity to nab and prosecute him under a litany of charges, including:

1๏ธโƒฃMoney laundering (18 U.S. Code ยง 1956)

๐ŸŸ  Trump allies including freshly-minted crypto czar David Sachs have long accused Biden, Zelensky and US three-letter agencies of using Ukraine as a giant money-laundering operation.

๐ŸŸ  Conviction on this charge could lead to 20 years in prison.

2๏ธโƒฃTheft of federal funds (18 U.S. Code ยง 666)

๐ŸŸ  In an explosive Truth Social rant last week, Trump slammed Zelensky as a โ€œDictatorโ€ who โ€œadmits that half the money we sent him is โ€˜MISSINGโ€™.โ€

๐ŸŸ  If charged and convicted under this article, Zelensky would face up to 10 years in prison.

3๏ธโƒฃMurder of US nationals overseas (18 U.S. Code ยง 1119)

๐Ÿ”ถ Last week, Elon Musk responded to a Tucker Carlson X post paying tribute to American journalist Gonzalo Lira, who died in a Ukrainian jail in 2024, writing โ€œZelensky killed an American journalist!โ€ Musk, who followed Liraโ€™s case before his death, wrote in 2023 that โ€œwe have a serious problemโ€ if Lira was imprisoned simply for criticizing Zelensky.

๐Ÿ”ถ Pending special approval from the Attorney General, prosecution under this article would get Zelensky death or life in jail.

4๏ธโƒฃElection interference (18 U.S. Code ยง 371)

๐ŸŸง Both Zelensky and his predecessor, Petro Poroshenko, have been accused of interfering in US presidential elections from 2016-2024.

๐ŸŸง In 2017, Ukrainian officials openly bragged to FT about meddling in 2016 against Trump. In 2024, Republicans accused Biden of using Zelenskyโ€™s September visit to boost Kamala Harrisโ€™s campaign.

๐ŸŸง Article 371 carries a maximum penalty of up to five years behind bars.
