There Are More Emails Coming About the Clinton Foundation, State Dept ‘Doing the Bidding of the Clintons’
Schweizer said newly-released emails regarding the Clinton Foundation are “further confirmation to what we’ve been talking about for more than a year, that there’s been pay to play at the Clinton State Department related to the Clinton Foundation, and the Clintons have failed to deal with any of the substance of these issues.”
He added, “I know there are more emails. There are emails that are being produced almost on a weekly basis for both Judicial Watch and Citizens United. You have Julian Assange saying that we’re probably going to see more emails. Look, here’s the bottom line, and you saw a little bit of it today with the State Department, but the media has to hold Hillary Clinton accountable and ask her to answer these questions. Here’s why this is so troubling. This is not a typical money in politics story. We’re used to Wall Street, oil companies, etc., giving donations to politicians, getting access, but federal law prevents....
Compromised: Justice Dept. Refused FBI Probe of Clinton Foundation
CNN buried the lede, as it frequently does on news stories that make Democrats look bad. The online version bears the innocuous-sounding headline, “Newly released Clinton emails shed light on relationship between State Dept. and Clinton Foundation.”
It is not until the 25th paragraph that the article states that an unidentified law enforcement official gave CNN a heads-up earlier this year. As the probe of Clinton’s private email servers was ramping up “several FBI field offices approached the Justice Department asking to open a case regarding the relationship between the State Department and the Clinton Foundation.”
At that time, the article continues, the Justice Department “declined because it had looked into allegations surrounding the Clinton Foundation around a year earlier and found there wasn’t sufficient evidence to open a case.”
Not even enough evidence to look into the foundation’s affairs?
Not more than a year after thepublication of Peter Schweizer’s blockbuster book, Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and...

TECH COMPANIES PERPETUATE EDUCATION MYTH IN ORDER TO INCREASE H-1B VISAS
Though these tech giants claim that Indian students are more qualified, in the global Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) India, which receives about 70% of all H-1B visas, scored almost dead last out of the 74 countries that participated in the program. Also, not one Indian university made it into one of the 250 spots on the World University Rankings Survey. The U.S. has 6 colleges in the top 10 of this international ranking system.
Additionally, the Optional Practical Training (OPT) program for foreign STEM students, who study at American universities, was extended from 12 months to 36 months this year due to its high demand in the tech industry. While American STEM graduates struggle to find jobs, OPT visa holders are often courted by these tech companies since they are exempt from payroll taxes and there is no wage requirements or visa caps on the program.
This education claim also comes as media attention has grown for the mass layoffs, such as at Disney and SoCal Edison, where American workers were forced to train their cheaper, foreign H-1B replacements before being laid off. During a Senate Subcommittee hearing earlier this year, Leo Perrero, a former tech worker at Disney World, broke down when telling his emotional story of..
