Cui’s request for the off-the-record meeting with Clinton campaign aides provides additional perspective on the scandal swirling around President Donald Trump and his former National Security Adviser, retired Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn.
DC: Chinese Ambassador to the U.S. Cui Tiankai requested a meeting with Hillary Clinton’s top aides in January 2016, according to an internal email circulated among the former Secretary of State’s senior presidential campaign officials.
“Chinese Ambassador Cui invited me over to the residence Tuesday for a coffee and to make a request. He wants to have an informal, private, off the record get together with a few of us to discuss the next year and the current state of US-China affairs,” wrote Clinton campaign aide Kurt Campbell in the Jan. 7, 2016, email.
“He asked me to host a social meal at my house in the next month. He was fairly insistent and indicated that he wanted to pass along some perspectives. I told him I’d reach out to you all to see about your judgement on this and possible availability. I’m happy to make some chili and cornbread by the fire but let’s first decide whether this makes sense. Please let me know your thinking,” Campbell said.
The email is one among hundreds to and from Clinton national campaign chairman John Podesta made public by Wikileaks during the 2016 election cycle.
“I’m happy to make some chili and cornbread by the fire”
You can just HEAR the gay.
I was thinking about burning some dog on the grill myself, but cat on a stick would do.
Ching Lee want some return on some graft.
While discussing kickbacks and such with the Chinese, they especially crave any endangered species for a meal.
Chinese corndogs were offered in either Doberman or Dachshund. Hot n’ spicy Chihuahua Chili is also a fav. Add a healthy side dish of cash and the Clintons’ Minimum Daily Requirement for graft and corruption is satisfied.
Jerry Manderin, do they serve “chili and corndogs” at Comet Pizza? I don’t even want to speculate on what “by the fire” means.
oops…”cornbread” not “corndogs”. I wouldn’t want to spread fake news.
Hillary refused to meet unless his aide I Bing Do came along.
Sum Ting Wong!
I bet we won’t hear much more about a bipartisan Congressional investigation of alleged Trump campaign Logan Act violations. No more Holder/Lynch DOJ to quash any probe of the Dems for the same thing.
Without hypocrisy, double-standards, graft, serial-lying and “forgetfulness”, the entire American Left would have no dialogue.
Period.
