WSJ: Clinton Foundation lobbied State on visa for Haitian PM  while exec stayed at his house

Dont call it corruption. Call it a confluence of interests. In other words, whatever interested the Clintons became what interested the State Department. A new series of e-mails emerging from FOIA lawsuits and reported by the Wall Street Journal show how Clinton Foundation interests took precedence over matters of state during Hillary Clintons tenure:

On Jan. 27, 2011, Clinton Foundation Chief Operating Officer Laura Graham sent an email to then-Secretary of State Hillary Clintons chief of staff Cheryl Mills, voicing concern about a rumor. Ms. Graham had heard that Foggy Bottom was thinking about revoking the U.S. visa of Haitian Prime Minister Jean Max Bellerive. Wjc will be v unhappy if thats the case, Ms. Graham warned Ms. Mills, using the initials of the former president.

Ms. Graham, who was also chief of staff to Mr. Clinton at the foundation, had other reasons to worry: Im also staying at [Mr. Bellerives] house fyi so exposure in general and this weekend in particular for wjc on this.

So Clinton Foundation staff was hobnobbing with a powerful Haitian politician and using connections at the State Department to try to influence U.S. policy decisions involving that same politician. Thats unethical and it is also contrary to what Mrs. Clinton promised when she went before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee ...

Just who is Jean Max Bellerive? Mary Anastasia OGrady explains:

Bellerive was an important Bill Clinton ally.

...

Bear in mind that none of these connections got disclosed ... because Hillary Clinton used a secret e-mail system that didnt come to light until well after she had left office...

VCS Mining had another Clintonista connection  Tony Rodham, Hillarys brother

...

culture of corruption that surrounds the Clintons, and which they have gone to great lengths to keep hidden.
