Uh oh! John Podesta May Have Violated Federal Law by Failing to Disclose 75,000 Stock Shares

Hillary Clinton’s former campaign chairman, John Podesta may have violated federal law when he failed to disclose 75,000 stock shares from a Russian-backed company in 2014. 

Looks like Hillary Clinton isn’t the only one who got financially mixed up with the Russians. The left are using Alinsky-type tactics by projecting the Russian connections onto the GOP.

The Daily Caller reports:

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.

The Schedule B section of the federal government’s form 278 which — requires financial disclosures for government officials — required Podesta to “report any purchase, sale or exchange by you, your spouse, or dependent children…of any property, stocks, bonds, commodity futures and other securities when the amount of the transaction exceeded $1,000.”

Podesta’s form 278 Schedule B is blank regarding his receipt of any stock from any company.

Hillary Clinton sold 20% of our Uranium to Russia in exchange for $150 million to the Clinton Foundation and now John Podesta failed to disclose 75,000 stock shares from a Kremlin-financed company. There needs to be a Russian investigation into these criminals.

The left is knee deep in Russia, not Donald Trump and his administration. The fake Russian story is to distract from their own illegal dealings with Russia.
