WHILE CLINTON HID EMAILS, $6 BILLION, THAT'S BILLION WITH A ‘B,’ WENT
MISSING IN HER STATE DEPT!
$6 Billion Vanishes From State Dept. Under Hillary Clinton
We have a Media who has decided not to expose the truth about this hidden gem, and Hillary’s political cronies keep bitching about the millions spent on Benghazi, but never mention the $6 Billion that went missing while Hillary was Secretary of State. We all know, according to Hillary and Bill, that they left the White House broke, and we also know that Hillary got caught taking over $200,000 worth of items belonging to the taxpayers from the White House that she had to return.
Are we all just getting numb to the Clintons now expected behavior, or are we going to make America great again and kick Hillary to the curb?
Knowing the Clintons, we have to know that the obvious
implication here is to cover up corruption and sweetheart deals, such as
contracts to spouses and friends, with missing documents in numerous government
contracts for the war in Iraq and much more:
The situation "creates conditions conducive to fraud, as corrupt individuals may attempt to conceal evidence of illicit behavior by omitting key documents from the contract file," the report concluded.
It would seem very little was account for – by definition – since the Clinton State Dept. had a vacancy for the critical Inspector General position, responsible for oversight and department spending, during the ENTIRE 5-year tenure of Hillary Clinton there.
It was the longest vacancy in the entire history of the department. In February 2012, a year before Clinton left office in February 2013, the Project on Government Oversight (POGO) reported:
The longest vacancy has been at the State Department, which has gone 1,484 days—over four years—without a permanent IG, at a time when the Department has taken on the responsibility and challenge of managing scandal-prone private security contractors in war zones. As of today, there are seven IG positions that have been vacant for more than a year.

So much for the already absurd 'most transparent
administration ever' claim of the Obama Administration.
That means no one even pretended to keep Sec. Clinton and her department accountable during her reign.
After Hillary stepped down, embroiled in "what difference does make" Benghazi bullsh*t, and John Kerry took over, one Steve A. Linick was appointed as Inspector General of the State Dept. As IG, Linick discovered $6 billion in unaccounted funds "due to improper filing of contracts during the past six years."
What else will be found – with an as-yet untold covert role
by the State Dept. in the meddling of Libya, Egypt, Syria and other players in
the Arab Spring uprising, the covert financing of jihadi rebels as well as
ISIS, and in the mounting tensions with Russia, China and other key players
around the world?
How much more has been kept secret – beyond just emails – that the public will never know about?But alas, I guess secrecy and the Clintons have long gone together like peas and carrots, peanut butter and jelly, or power and abuse
Crooked Hillary at it again? Was the money used to pay Bill Clinton for his over the top expensive speeches, or laundered by her Clinton Foundation donors for future favors? Was it used for gun running to Libya and the Syrian (ISIS) Rebels? I don’t know what or where, or even how, but you have to know it went missing intentionally by the Obama/Clinton team of Alinsky, and for reasons we taxpayers will never know.
In a mind-boggling example of how the government blows—or perhaps steals—our tax dollars, billions vanished from the U.S. State Department mostly while Hillary Clinton ran it, according to a new alert issued by the agency’s inspector general.
What difference at this point does it make!? Six billion is reportedly missing, and Hillary Clinton reportedly wrote a check worth $50 million for ‘services performed’ under the State Department, that no one can find. The paperwork for Hillary Clinton’s $50 million ‘services rendered’ was misplaced. Under Hillary, the Iraq Embassy in Baghdad is missing $2 billion alone that was allocated for its construction.
But Hillary Clinton has bigger problems than a few billion
dollars missing: It has now come out that her 2008 presidential campaign was
illegally funded by businessman Jeffrey Thompson, with Clinton crony and former
DNC chief Minyon Moore pulling the strings.
But there’s more: court documents show that Thompson illegally funded dozens of campaigns—and guess who he supported in 2012? You guessed it: Barack Hussein Obama.
Could the former Secretary of State be using the cash to fund an upcoming presidential campaign? In all, $6 billion are missing and it’s highly unlikely any of the money will ever be recovered. The cash was supposed to be used to pay contractors but it just disappeared and documents that could help track the dough cannot be located. How convenient! The paper trail, which federal law says must be maintained in the case of government contracts, has been destroyed or was never created to begin with.
How could this possibly happen? Like a lot of government agencies, outside contracts are a free-for-all at the State Department with virtually no oversight. Hundreds of millions of dollars are doled out annually for a variety of services and no one bothers to follow up on the deals. This “exposes the department to significant financial risk,” according to the State Department Inspector General, which issued a special management alert this month outlining the lost $6 billion. The watchdog further writes that “it creates conditions conducive to fraud, as corrupt individuals may attempt to conceal evidence of illicit behavior by omitting key documents from the contract file.”
Among the examples listed in the memo is a recent investigation of the closeout process for contracts involving the U.S. mission in Iraq. Investigators could not locate 33 of the 115 contract files totaling approximately $2.1 billion. Even of the files they found, more than half contained insufficient documents required by federal law. In one billion-dollar deal involving the State Department’s Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement in Afghanistan, the actual contract was determined to be “incomplete.”
In one alarming case a contract file conveniently omitted
that a $52 million deal was awarded to a company owned by the spouse of another
State Department contractor employee performing as a specialist. In other cited
cases a contracting officer actually falsified government technical review information
in a $100 million deal and a contracting officer’s representative allowed
nearly $800,000 to be paid on a deal with no official documents to support the
payment. It’s the free-flow of public funds under extremely suspicious
circumstances.
At the very least the State Department is violating its own policy, according to the inspector general, which divulges that it’s found “repeated examples of poor contract file administration over the years.” The watchdog confirms that “it is the Department’s policy that all contracts, regardless of dollar value, be properly documented so as to provide complete record of: pre-solicitation activities; the solicitation, evaluation, and award process; and [sic] the administration of the contract through closeout.”
This unbelievable report documenting the mysterious disappearance of $6 billion from the coffers of a major government agency brings to mind a similar and equally enraging story reported by Judicial Watch a few years ago. The Pentagon somehow lost $6.6 billion sent to Iraq for post-invasion “reconstruction.”
The money was bundled in chunks of $100 bills and transported in turboprop military cargo planes known as C-130 Hercules. About $2.4 billion fit in each aircraft and 21 flights made trips, transporting a total of $12 billion in American currency to Iraq. More than half the money has never been recovered, according to the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction.
A year later nearly half a billion dollars in oil destined for the Afghan National Army vanished. We will never know what happened because the Pentagon improperly shredded records that could have solved the mystery, according to a federal audit that exposed the fraud. The oil was part of a $1 billion fuel program largely funded by the U.S. government, which of course, means it was mostly Americans who saw their tax dollars blown in yet another government corruption scheme.
Waste and fraud are par for the course in most bloated
government agencies and JW has exposed a number of alarming examples over the
years, both domestically and internationally. They involve practically all
agencies, including the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) scandal-plagued
food-stamp program, Medicare and Medicaid, the famously corrupt U.S. Agency for
International Development (USAID) and President Obama’s fraud-infested $787
billion stimulus boondoggle, to name a few.
