John Podesta May Have Violated Federal Law By Not Disclosing 75,000 Stock Shares

DC:

John Podesta, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s 2016 national campaign chairman, may have violated federal law by failing to disclose the receipt of 75,000 shares of stock from a Kremlin-financed company when he joined the Obama White House in 2014, according to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group.

Joule Unlimited Technologies — financed in part by a Russian firm —  originally awarded Podesta 100,000 shares of stock options when in 2010 he joined that board along with its Dutch-based entities: Joule Global Holdings, BV and the Stichting Joule Global Foundation.

When Podesta announced his departure from the Joule board in January 2014 to become President Obama’s special counsellor, the company officially issued him 75,000 common shares of stock.

  1. They may have violated this and they may have violated that and they have violated a pink pussy hat but nothing ever seems to get them indicted or punished!

  2. I suspect Podesta’s form 278 Schedule B has been amended.
    I suspect too, that the FBI has determined there was no criminal intent or attempt on Podesta’s part to not fully comply with Title 5 of the U.S. Code. He was just forgetful and careless.

    No harm, No foul, he just pocketed the shares as part of the pay to play corruption that was normalized by The Clinton’s and the Clinton Foundation.

  3. How is this “may” have violated federal law? It either did or it did not. Failure to miss recording 75K shares of a foreign companies stock isn’t a “mistake” it’s an attempt to hide it. You have to hope the new AG and his office is actually investigating this with a view to arrest and charge him.
