If pressed, probably fewer than 5% of Americans could locate Malawi on a map. This land-locked Southeast African nation is dominated by large Lake Malawi. It was the second African nation to have a female President, Joyce Banda, who served from 2011 to 2014 and was defeated for re-election amid allegations of corruption. The current President Arthur Mutharika, is the younger brother of Banda’s predecessor, Bingu wa Mutharika, who served from 2004 to his death in 2012. 76-year old Arthur Peter Mutharika just returned to Malawi from a three-week trip to the United Nations, during which time Malawians speculated he may have either been hospitalized, or may have died from heart failure.

It is somewhat interesting to note that Bingu wa Mutharika served as Chair of the African Union from 2010 to 2011 — his predecessor in that role was Libya’s deposed leader Moammar Gaddafi.

About 16 million people live in Malawi, which is, like Yemen (currently under some type of attack by Saudi Arabia with U.S. support) one of the world’s poorest nations. More than 64% of Malawi’s population live below the country’s own poverty rate according to the World Bank. At $750 PPP per-capita income (an international measure — “Purchasing Power Parity”) Malawi residents have little money to spare.

Location of Malawi in Africa

In many Americans’ minds, countries like Malawi are filled with poor, ignorant people. They are pictured by Americans as dark-skinned individuals beset by tropical diseases, corrupt government, poor education, lack of natural resources, and overall hopelessness.

The people who think this way are also the same people who uncritically believe information provided to the public by the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Campaign employees.

Wikileaks’ Podesta emails reveal many communications regarding the Clinton Foundation and Malawi. Some are responses meant for public consumption pursuant to critical newspaper articles, such as the NY Times series about Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) AIDS programs in Rwanda, or Boston Globe coverage of mysterious methods to acquire and spend funds from various sources used by the Boston-based separate CHAI organization.

I had already determined based on publically-available information, including the Clinton Foundation website, blog posts, annual reports, and tax returns, that its public claims regarding helping — as of 5 months ago, 50,000 farmers, and now, over 100,000 farmers in that nation — were bogus beyond belief.

In 2015, the Clinton Foundation “talking points” encompassed 40,000 farmers. The group just increases these numbers when the real number is: ZERO

Above, it was 40K farmers, 3 countries, 500% increased yields -now it’s 105K farmers, 1 country, 150% increased yield.

The Clinton Foundation doesn’t even have an employee in Malawi any longer. The farms it says are making such a big “transformation” are run by a private, for-profit holding company called Tukula Farming Company. Whatever money Clinton Foundation may have given was spent long ago and these half-fallow former tobacco farms (Malawi’s main agricultural product) are used to show a financial loss on Clinton Foundation tax returns each year.

The list of for-profits controlled by Clinton Foundation. Acceso Fund in Colombia paid $1.2 million TO CF CEO Bruce Lindsay, allowing it to be recorded as a “non-taxable” loss. Tukula Farming Company is the FOR PROFIT (yet “money losing” entity covering the 5 contiguous parcels in Malawi)

I haven’t written about the fantastic goldmine of Clinton Foundation awfulness that is Wikileaks’ Podesta emails because I get it. The media who promote Clinton don’t care and neither do Clinton’s diehard supporters.

However, I have told people, “The Clinton Foundation lies to the public and its donors egregiously [see above — not an isolated example — typical] and the employees also lied egregiously to their bosses.”

Wikileaks’ emails confirm that Clinton Foundation employees began fitful efforts to do a small amount of work in 2012–2013, coinciding with the hire of Eric Braverman, a personal friend of Chelsea Clinton, as CEO. Braverman’s tenure and abrupt departure was covered in some news media. The Foundation’s public records show that Braverman successfully led a $250 million endowment campaign.

One of the reforms introduced was bi-weekly program reports which appear to have not existed before Braverman’s tenure, and which stopped after his departure.

These gave me a few moments of bitter laughter since — like just about all of us who’ve done any type of management for a living — it’s obvious what they are.

February 2013 Malawi farm report: working on finalizing the long-term lease agreement. Note the “Trees of Hope” massive achievement of $3,700 in sales. We could do better in our own back yards.

The highlight of the September 2013 Bi-Weekly report was of course, my all-time favorite Clinton Foundation “Alliance for a Healthier Generation” achievement. A “Commitment to Action” by McDonalds to feature only water, milk or juice as Happy Meal beverages in 20 different markets. They’ve made partial progress. According to the Center for Science in the Public Interest — the “agreement” was meaningless and misleading” as the company was technically allowed to continue to offer soda with the meals on menu boards.

As of 2015, the minimal “progress” achieved by McDonalds was assessed by Keybridge Communications. A reader informed me that Keybridge President Robert Wescott has quite the resume and qualifications to lead a team assessing McDonalds’ progress on improving childrens’ nutrition in 20 different international markets.

Big Food, Big Pharma, Big Energy, Big Everything! Robert Wescott.

To Mr. Wescott and his diverse staff, children’s nutrition comes right after their consulting fee, vacation plans, retirement funds, international investments, CHAI lattes and other important concerns.

Fighting for $15 unless You Work for Them!

Here’s how much Clinton Foundation pays their “regular” employees such as servers and custodial staff in Little Rock. On the left are dates of hire, and in the far right column, recommended raises. Current pay is the gray column. Names redacted. The executives (over 70 of them) are all paid $100K + some much higher, with average raise 5% or greater for the same period of time. President Clinton is on record stating his Foundation employs more than 2,000 people worldwide (as told to “FactCheck.org”). The 2013 pay report encompasses 146 individuals. If the tax return is to be believed, CHAI employs an additional 300 for a total of 446. Little things. Cannot move lips without the lie.

Anyway, here’s the deal.

Clinton Foundation lies to itself and bosses lie to employees.

Clinton Foundation employees lie to their bosses.

Clinton Foundation bosses lie to the media, they lie to the government and the public in their official reports and tax returns, they lie to donors, and they lie to themselves if they think for one nanosecond they have ever done anything to “help anybody” except themselves and

They lie to you.
