Some Swamps Drain Themselves

Zerohedge;

In a “mass layoff” event reported late last week by the Department of Labor, the Clinton Foundation announced it would lay off some 22 employees at the Clinton Global Initiative, which attained notoriety during the John Podesta leaks, when the various details of the fallout between between CGI head Doug Band and Chelsea Clinton were revealed; it also emerged that long-time Bill Clinton friend Band was soliciting donations for Clinton through his PR firm, Teneo in an sordid example of “pay for play” which most of the mainstream media refused to cover, especially after Band emailed Podesta “If this story gets out, we are screwed.”
Filed as mandated by the Department of Labor’s Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification, or WARN notice, on January 12, the Clinton Foundation’s Veronika Shiroka advised the DOL that as part of a “Plant Layoff” it would layoff 22 workers on April 15, with reason for the dislocation stated as “Discontinuation of the Clinton Global Initiative.” The layoffs are part of the Clinton plan put in motion ahead of the presidential election, to offset a storm of criticism regarding pay-to-play allegations during Clinton’s tenure as secretary of state.

    Will the media cover her 8-12 year sentence in a federal prison for election fraud and selling secrets to foreign countries?
    Old Sick Willie doesn’t realize that as soon as he gets her a ‘get out of jail free’ card, she will take all his homes and he will have to live in Chelsea’s apartment.

  2. Saw a comment, “the reason for closing is lack of inventory; they ran out of influence to peddle”.
    Not mine, but I had to laugh, ’cause it’s true.

  3. Speaking of draining the swamp: http://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/white-house/article126517319.html
    ““It is all about access and influence,” said Craig Holman, a lobbyist for the nonpartisan public advocacy group Public Citizen. “Donations come in very large amounts and from those who almost always want something from the new administration.”” ““This is nothing short of selling access to the president, the vice president and the cabinet. This is very unfettered, brazen selling of access.”

  4. Hopefully, the peasants severance will be generous and
    the nondisclosure oath takings very solemn and ominous.

  5. So the day she lost the election, none of that “good work” needed doing anymore — sheer coincidence I’m sure.
