“Imaad Zuberi hobnobbed for two decades among America’s political elite, raising millions for Barack Obama, Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton, texting with kings, princes, presidents and prime ministers and jet-setting with Republican senators like Lindsey Graham and John McCain.

Then Zuberi resisted pressure to cooperate in the investigation of then-President Donald Trump’s inauguration committee, and the California millionaire’s world came crashing down. Late last year, he pleaded guilty to what federal prosecutors said was a “mercenary” scheme to funnel large sums of foreign money into U.S. campaign coffers so Zuberi could gain political influence and build his global business empire.

When Zuberi was sentenced last month to 12 years in prison and more than $18 million in fines — one of the harshest penalties ever meted out for a donor fraud case — it seemed like an open-and-shut case of political corruption. To the news media, it was a made-for-TV tale of greed and graft felling a man whose charity and good nature otherwise endeared him to many from Hollywood to Washington.

But back in the nation’s capital, the U.S. government harbored a deep secret about Zuberi, a Pakistani-American who ran a highly successful venture capital firm with reach across the globe.

Just the News has confirmed from multiple current and former U.S. officials that Zuberi enjoyed a long and complex relationship with U.S. intelligence. His early help to the Drug Enforcement Administration with illegal drug trade and the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department in the war on Islamic terrorism in the early 2000s eventually elevated him to becoming a valuable source inside Washington’s security and spy establishment for much of the last two decades, the officials said. They declined to be more specific.

The first hint of that secret emerged recently when U.S. District Court Judge Virginia Phillips ordered the unsealing of court documents, in which the four-letter acronym “CIPA” unexpectedly appeared, with little or no explanation.

 02-09-21_Minute_Order_on_Redactions (1).pdf

CIPA stands for the Classified Information Protection Act, a law that protects the intelligence operations of the United States and shields the release of sensitive information. It’s rare for CIPA to show up in a normal criminal case, let alone one involving political donations. And it signaled that Zuberi may have been much more than just a fundraising, hobnobbing global businessman. Zuberi’s account of his intelligence work is contained in one of the CIPA filings mentioned in the court case.” (Read more: Just the News, 3/16/2021)  (Archive)

Biden’s corrupt Justice Department shut down their ‘investigation’ into the Clinton Foundation in August 2021, according to FOIA documents obtained by the New York Times.

The FBI then ‘returned’ or destroyed all of the evidence!

“The Justice Department kept open the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s family foundation for nearly all of President Donald J. Trump’s administration, with prosecutors closing the case without charges just days before he left office.” The New York Times reported.

The DOJ investigated the Clinton Foundation’s relationships with foreign donors while Hillary Clinton was the head of the Department of State during Obama’s presidency.

(…) “In August 2021, the F.B.I. received what is known as a declination memo from prosecutors and as a result considered the matter closed.” the New York Times reported.

NYT FOIA Doc

And all the evidence is forever destroyed!

The Times reported: “All of the evidence obtained during the course of this investigation has been returned or otherwise destroyed,” according to the FBI.

“A Lebanese-Nigerian billionaire has resolved and two of his associates have agreed to resolve a federal investigation that they conspired to violate federal election laws by scheming to make illegal campaign contributions to U.S. presidential and congressional candidates, the Department of Justice announced today.

Gilbert Chagoury, 75, who presently resides in Paris, France, paid $1.8 million to resolve allegations that he, with the assistance of others, provided approximately $180,000 to individuals in the United States that was used to make contributions to four different federal political candidates in U.S. elections.

Chagoury, a foreign national prohibited by federal law from contributing to any U.S. elections, admitted he intended these funds to be used to make contributions to these candidates. He further admitted to making illegal conduit contributions – causing campaign contributions to be made in the name of another individual.

According to a deferred prosecution agreement with the government, Chagoury accepted responsibility for his role and conduct that resulted in violations of federal election contribution laws between June 2012 and March 2016 and agreed to cooperate with the government’s investigation. Chagoury entered into the agreement on October 19, 2019, and he paid the fine in December 2019.

Federal prosecutors entered into the deferred prosecution agreement considering, among other factors, Chagoury’s unique assistance to the U.S. government, his payment of a fine, Chagoury’s acceptance of responsibility for his actions, and his residence outside the United States.

Relatedly, two Chagoury associates – Joseph Arsan, 68, also of Paris, and Toufic Joseph Baaklini, 58, of Washington, D.C. – agreed to resolve allegations that they violated campaign contribution laws by assisting Chagoury in his illegal contributions. Arsan, a physician who worked as an assistant to Chagoury, admitted helping Chagoury reimburse others for contributions to political candidates. In 2014, Arsan – at Chagoury’s direction – wired $30,000 to a third party and indicated on the wire information form that the funds were for a “wedding gift,” when he knew or should have known that the funds were reimbursement for making a political contribution to a campaign fund for a federal elected official.

Arsan’s deferred prosecution agreement, which took effect in November 2020, also resolves a criminal investigation into his alleged tax violations in the years 2012 to 2016 stemming from his failure to report money he held in foreign bank accounts. Arsan agreed to pay $1.7 million in penalties to resolve the tax probe and to cooperate in the government’s investigation.

In his deferred prosecution agreement signed on March 1, 2021, Baaklini admitted to giving $30,000 in cash provided by Chagoury to an individual at a restaurant in Los Angeles who, along with others, later made campaign contributions to the 2016 campaign of a U.S. congressman. Baaklini also agreed to pay a $90,000 fine as part of his agreement and agreed to cooperate with the government’s investigation. (DOJ – Central District of CA, 3/31/2021)  (Archive)

Guest post by Bob Bishop 

The Clinton Foundation is America’s largest unprosecuted racketeering and charity fraud case. Investigations of the Clinton Foundation, shelved by the corrupt and partisan DOJ, FBI, and IRS leadership, demonstrate a two-tier justice system with exemptions for the political elite.

The only remaining pathway for due process was petitioning the Arkansas State Board of Public Accountancy to enforce AICPA professional standards against the Foundation’s former national audit firm BKD, LLP (BKD has since merged with another national firm forming Forvis, LLP).

BKD issued slapdash audits and tax returns (under penalties of perjury) for 13 years.  By dismissing AICPA professional standards and IRS compliance, the firm created a veneer of legitimacy for the Clinton Foundation.  BKD’s main fiduciary obligation is to serve and protect the public interest, not the Clinton Foundation.

I filed a complaint with the Arkansas Board against BKD, LLP. The complaint (59 allegations), relying on public documents, charged BKD with professional misconduct and failure to comply with the following AICPA standards and the IRS Code. The complaint’s primary focus is the Clinton Foundation’s 2011 amended IRS Form 990 tax return dated November 16, 2015, and the underlying 2011 audited financial statements.

The firm filed a condescending and indefensible response dismissing the allegations and smearing me as a “conspiracy theorist.”  The reply crossed a bright line including a veiled threat of AICPA disciplinary action against me.  BKD’s Chief Operating Officer Eric Hansen served at the time as the AICPA Chairman.

Rampant Irregularities

The complaint covered substantial irregularities and documented a culture of deceit, with the more flagrant irregularities abstracted below.

Trustee Oversight & Control Failures

The Foundation’s Board of Trustees engaged Simpson Thacher & Bartlett, LLP, to review its “decadal” (Or is it decadent?) governance. Their report was issued in late December 2011. WikiLeaks released the draft document widely covered in media outlets.  The governance review found severe organizational and internal control weaknesses jeopardizing the Foundation’s tax-exempt status.  Why did BKD ignore the flashing warning signals?

Material Errors and Omissions in 990 Tax Returns

Hillary Clinton’s 2016 Presidential run caused the Foundation to evaluate, amend, and refile its tax filings for 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 on November 16, 2015.  The justification was to disclose foreign government grants and the Clintons’ paid speeches on behalf of the Foundation because the few lines on the returns were previously left blank.  Foundation President Dr. Donna Shalala’s issued a logic-defying press release that the Foundation exceeded all legal tax requirements and “that the errors did not require us to amend our returns.”  The accounting fees for 2015 were a staggering $2.7 million suggest otherwise.

I compared the original returns line-by-line to the amended returns.  The reconciliations found extensive and material revisions of over 200 items each year.  Substantial changes occurred in the reporting categories in the Balance Sheet, Statement of Functional Expenses, and Revenue Statement.  These changes required the Foundation to reissue the consolidated financial statements or compulsory for BKD to rescind its audit opinions; however, neither happened.  The Foundation routinely restated its financial statements; for instance, the re-issuance of 2010 due to offsetting marginal errors of just 2.2% of revenue and expense.

John Moynihan and Larry Doyle testify before Congress, December 2018. (Credit: public domain)

“A U.S. Tax Court judge has ordered the Internal Revenue Service to reveal if it criminally investigated the Clinton Foundation, directing the agency to cure a mysterious “gap” in its records in the case.

Most of the proceedings in the case involving the Clinton Foundation and the whistleblowers Lawrence W. Doyle and John F. Moynihan have been sealed, but U.S. Tax Court Judge David Gustafson authorized the release of an April 22 ruling to Just the News this week.

In it, Gustafson remanded the case back to the IRS Whistleblower Office (WO), saying the agency’s claim there was no criminal investigation against the Clinton Foundation “was not supported by the administrative record and thus constituted an abuse of discretion.”

“The WO must further investigate to determine whether CI [criminal investigative division] proceeded with an investigation based on petitioners’ information and collected proceeds,” the judge ruled. “… It seems clear we should remand the case to the WO so that it can explore this gap.”

While ordering the IRS to reveal whether the Clinton Foundation was criminally investigated, the judge declined the whistleblowers’ request to take an Arkansas state official’s deposition or compel discovery in the case, saying such actions were “outside the scope of proper discovery.”

“Petitioners evidently look forward to a trial in which they hope to prove wrongdoing and tax evasion by the target entities and to prove dereliction of duty by the IRS,” he added. “There will be no such trial in this case.” (Read more: JusttheNews, 5/11/2021)  (Archive)

Maxwell and Epstein are pictured with Clinton in 1993. (Credit: Clinton Presidential Library)

“A judge has ruled that dozens more documents about Ghislaine Maxwell’s personal affairs should be made public, including some that could reveal more about her finances and her relationship to the Clintons.

Judge Loretta Preska said that unsealing the documents would not impact Maxwell’s right to a fair trial in November as her lawyers have claimed.

Among the documents which will be made public in two weeks’ time will be Maxwell’s efforts to quash requests from Virginia Roberts Giuffre, who sued Maxwell for defamation, to obtain her financial records.

Giuffre’s lawyers demanded a vast array of documents from Maxwell including ‘funding received from the Clinton Global Initiative and the Clinton Foundation,’ according to court filings.

The judge also ruled that documents relating to a request from Giuffre for email accounts that Maxwell allegedly kept secret from the court should also be made public.

They could give an insight into powerful men who Maxwell knew, such and Prince Andrew of the British royal family.

(…) Giuffre’s lawyers sought Maxwell’s tax returns, balance sheets for companies Maxwell controlled and financial statements for companies she controlled among other materials.

One section reads: ‘From January 2012 to the present, produce all documents concerning any source of funding for the TarraMar Project (Maxwell’s nonprofit) or any other not-for-profit entities with which you are associated, including but not limited to, funding received from the Clinton Global Initiative, the Clinton Foundation (a/k/a William J. Clinton Foundation, a/k/a/ the Bill, Hilary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation),and the Clinton Foundation Climate Change Initiative’.

While it is unclear if the Clintons will come up in the documents which will be made public, there is considerable back and forth and dozens of documents on this subject that will be unsealed.

Bill Clinton’s relationship with Epstein and Maxwell came under intense scrutiny when the financier was arrested in July 2019.

Clinton flew on Epstein’s plane dozens of times and photographs have shown him receiving a neck massage from Chauntae Davies, one of Epstein’s victims who worked as a flight attendant on his private jet, known as the ‘Lolita Express’.

The book ‘A Convenient Death: The Mysterious Demise of Jeffrey Epstein’, by journalists Alana Goodman and Daniel Halper even claimed that Clinton and Maxwell had a secret affair.

Other documents that will be unsealed relate to a request for information from Maxwell regarding what Giuffre’s lawyers called an ‘undisclosed email account’ that she kept secret from the court in breach of an order to hand it over. (Read more: The Daily Mail, 7/01/2021)  (Archive)

Syracuse native and former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (l) shares a laugh with Bill Clinton and their host, Mac Cummings (r) on Thursday, Sept. 2, 2021, in Skaneateles, N.Y. (Credit: Jordan Arnold/Syracuse.com)

“The Virginia Republican Party released an ad on Thursday targeting Terry McAuliffe, the Democratic candidate for governor, over his relationship to former President Bill Clinton, his own sex scandals, as well as his friendship with late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The ad starts with a news clip about Clinton’s then-upcoming fundraiser for McAuliffe in New York, where McAuliffe is from. The video goes back and forth between McAuliffe touting his friendship with Clinton and news clips – some about Epstein and others about Clinton’s relationship with Epstein. The fundraiser took place on Thursday.

The ad ties Epstein’s donations to the Clinton Foundation, which McAullife served on the board of for many years and has friendships with those who’ve given to it – all demonstrated in a combination of news clips and soundbites of McAuliffe touting those friendships and his time on the board.

The ad ends with the words “This November … tell Terry … time’s up.”

Insider requested all flight-history data associated with four planes owned by Jeffrey Epstein.

The FAA rejected the request but later provided the records in response to an unrelated request.

The new FAA records include hundreds of previously unknown flights made by Epstein’s jets.

They corroborate Insider’s reporting on Epstein’s travel patterns as documented in court records and flight-signal data.

A searchable database now contains 2,618 flights made by Epstein’s private jets from 1995 to July 6, 2019. (Read more: BusinessInsider, 11/29/2021)  (Archive)

Jeffrey Epstein’s access to the Clinton White House laid bare: Visitor logs reveal pedophile visited the former president at least 17 TIMES – including a dozen in 1994 and twice in one day on three separate occasions

Visitor logs obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com reveal pedophile Jeffrey Epstein visited the White House at least 17 times during Bill Clinton’s first term between 1993 and 1995

The documents, released as part of a FOIA request, show Epstein was admitted as a guest on 14 separate days and on three occasions made two visits in a single day

The vast majority of Epstein’s visits were to the West Wing, suggesting he was meeting the president

The late financier was invited by some of Clinton’s most senior advisers and aides, including Robert Rubin who later served as Clinton’s Treasury Secretary

While Epstein’s crimes did not become public knowledge until his 2006 arrest, the visits would have occurred around the time his alleged madam Ghislaine Maxwell was allegedly procuring underage girls for him

According to logs, Epstein was first admitted as a guest in February 25, 1993 – just a month after Clinton’s inauguration – after being invited by Robert Rubin, at the time Assistant to the President for Economic Policy

He next visited on September 29, 1993 for a reception organized by the White House Historical Association after he donated $10,000, which he was photographed attending with Ghislaine Maxwell

Clinton investigators John Moynihan and Larry Doyle, also known as the Financial Bounty Hunters,  reveal on the Thomas Paine Podcast that they have spoken multiple times with Special Prosecutor John Durham’s Justice Department team to assist with its ongoing investigation which now appears to be focused on the Clinton Foundation, Bill Gates and millions of dollars in profit from the illicit vaccine and pharmaceutical schemes worldwide.

A member of our research team,  D Smoley, muddled through this very long interview and took a few notes on the key issues discussed:

With Financial Bounty Hunters (FBH) and Charles Ortel dropping hints last week that there is a major breaking news story about fraud in the non-profit sector, it is a good time to look back at the last FBH interview, 3 months ago.

The same people involved in Clinton Foundation are involved in combatting Covid and distributing aid for COVID.

Here is my draft of notes on what they said during that marathon podcast in December of 2021.

FBH first appeared on the Thomas Paine podcast in June 2020 and introduced the concept of a Playbook that uses a cover of worldwide health to channel massive amounts of money to non-profit organizations. The people who run the Playbook are globalists who aim to take ownership of all of the world’s resources–including the plants and oceans and people–to create their version of utopia. Six months after coronavirus appeared in Wuhan, FBH predicted that this is the Playbook that would be activated for coronavirus pandemic support.

The second interview, in December 2021, looked deeper into the organizations, people, and methods that the Playbook implemented for pandemic response and then FBH warned about the likely way that it will be used in upcoming months.

Abuse of Tax Exempt Status
The Clinton Foundation was established as a 501c(3) organization in the late 1990’s to raise money for the Bill Clinton Presidential Library, an undertaking that required $100-$150 million dollars. The “reported” top line revenue for Clinton Foundation and Clinton Health exceeds $3 billion which leaves potential tax liability and penalties on $2.9 billion. As whistleblowers, the FBH could receive a reward of a third of the amount recovered by IRS.

Their work is not limited to Clinton Foundation, FBH have filed complaints for additional organizations where they saw evidence of non-compliance with requirements for 501c(3).

Timeline
August 2017 FBH made whistleblower submission to IRS. Kept working
Early Nov 2018 preliminary denial from IRS. Kept working
Dec 13, 2018 FBH Testimony before the House Oversight Subcommittee, subsequently received final denial, appealed IRS denial to US Tax Court. Kept working
August 28, 2019 US Tax Court Accepted Appeal notified via email. Kept working
October 2020 court records for their appeal were put under seal. The only records available are the docket entries recorded by John Solomon prior to sealing and two documents that the judge allowed to be released. Kept working.

Risk
We are laying out exhibits that get into this whole concept of risk. Where are people’s risks? The presumption that our public officials and our regulators are going to perform and protect the public interest is in my opinion (and what we are laying out here) that is the greatest risk of all. Does current response require commitments that do more harm than good, taking on considerable risks? What played out in those years in third world countries looks similar to what is going on today. Same play book, same players.

Right now, they are trying to set the biggest trap that has been ever been set, in terms of control of our personal lives. We happen to have the evidence and the judge has the evidence.

The Playbook puts conditions in agreements for health and financing to cause local governments to cede control of aspects of their decision making.

Here is an email from July 8. 2003.
“There was a clear consensus among the development assistance committee (In Tanzania) that the potentially enormous amounts of funds coming onstream, from Clinton Foundation and Global Fund and PEPFAR could do more harm than good in that there are considerable risks posed to the health sector program and reforms in Tanzania.”

The Playbook
With every crisis, there are indications that people on the inside were made aware of what was going on. Government officials, public health officials, all pharmaceutical officials are massively conflicted. This is the Big Rig in terms of regulatory capture. Our regulators protect and promote the interests of Wall Street, Big Pharma or our public health officials, that is Tony Fauci and the rest of them, Tony Fauci has the checkbook he provides funding for a lot of the activities, Bill Gates backs him up, tight at the hip, working for the interests of those pharmaceutical companies and not working for your interests.

We have seen this before. In our prior discussion we talked about the adulterated drugs from Ranbaxy Labs from India distributed throughout the third the world. Garbage drugs from Ranbaxy negatively impacted untold numbers of people in the developing world from those adulterated meds. When people take ineffective drugs, they end up developing drug resistance. viruses mutate. You end up with drug resistance. Same is happening with these vaccines people stated taking a year ago. People took them once, twice, a third time and are still getting infected? The viruses mutate. Are they ineffective?

When we heard the August 2021 interview with Dr. Fauci, we recognized the old playbook being used again: Clinton Foundation, Global Fund, PEPFAR just as predicted by FBH on the Thomas Paine Podcast in June 2020. We are participants for these drug trails, as opposed to recipients of drug trial research. That is how HIV worked with the Clinton Foundation Ineffective drugs that don’t stop the disease cause mutations and spread and even more drugs are needed.

Is it a coincidence that the countries with the largest contributors to the World Health Organization also have the greatest covid death rate?

A Geneva based WHO affiliate, UNITAID, a Gates backed, and Clinton backed initiative carveout made a $40 million payment to University of Liverpool shortly before Andrew Hill’s final report where he said we cannot support Ivermectin to treat Covid. Half a million lives could have been saved.

Globalists
There is no magic here. There is a practical trajectory of what all of these people are doing, these globalists are doing, when they are looking for worlds without borders, universal healthcare, all of these wonderful ideological thoughts, and they will do whatever they need to do to execute on the strategy, myopically, with blindfolds on as to what the real interests are of those of us who populate the planet.

Current Developments in DC
DC Swamp holds discussion in law firms.

While researching the case, FBH has seen a strategy to make decisions in law firms and then give advice to officials in DC instead of the elected officials making decisions. This makes all emails and discussions privileged; attorney-client information cannot be obtained in FOIA.

John Durham Investigation
While FBH have not met with John Durham, they did speak to people in his office on multiple occasions. Durham would have access to the material that FBH submitted to other agencies under Rule 6, Federal Rule of Civil Procedure which allows for intergovernmental agencies to communicate material and subject matter that is relevant and provides an exception to the grand jury rule

The indictment of Attorney Sussmann is encouraging because he was a counsel to the Clinton Foundation

FBH have not received cooperation from government, and that includes people in the legislative branch

END OF COMMENTS FROM FBH

The following remarks are made by Thomas Paine’s, Michael Moore, about Fauci’s interview:

Fauci opened his mouth in an August interview and said exactly to the “T” what FBH said to Paine in early 2020 when this started with 15 days to flatten the curve.

Fauci said that we are in active discussion to develop a worldwide pandemic strategy with a broad comprehensive approach to preparedness and response at every level. Equity has been the most important part of the vaccine program, both domestic equity, and now international equity and that is reason why Biden program has already committed half a billion dollars plus 80 million plus that is going out right now.

Fauci described his vision of using organizations like PEPFAR, CEPI (Center for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations), GAVI (Global Vaccines Alliance) for procurement and distribution, The Global Fund, Jeremy Ferarr at Welcome Trust, UNITAID, and Intrepid.

The EU is pre-purchasing therapeutics and that are in development, setting up a new institution HERA a counterpart to our BARDA.

The entire August 2021 Fauci interview was included in the December 2021 Paine Podcast
