It's Going to Hit the Fan! Clinton Foundation CEO Braverman Seeks Asylum at Russian Consulate (Videos)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Russian news is reporting that Eric Braverman, former CEO of the Clinton Foundation, actually has sought asylum at the Russian consulate office. It will be hitting the fan very soon.


BREAKING: “Clinton Foundation CEO Braverman Seeks Asylum In Russia”

Eric Braverman the former CEO of the Clinton Foundation seeks asylum in Russia

Meet The Man Who Can Expose “The Real Hillary Clinton Scandal”

We have written frequently about the internal Clinton Foundation power struggle between Chelsea Clinton and Doug Band over the previous couple of weeks (see herehere and here).  It all started back in 2011 when, as Chelsea started to take a more senior role at the Clinton Foundation, she became increasingly concerned about an internal audit that exposed glaring conflicts of interest throughout the Foundation with an emphasis on Doug Band and his company, Teneo, who she thought had inappropriately sought favors from the State Department during Hillary’s tenure as Secretary of State.  A Politico article from March 2015, summarized Chelsea’s rise at the Foundation and how it threatened some long-time Clinton allies who had grown quite accustomed to the status quo. 

But Chelsea Clinton’s rise at times has seemed to threaten some veteran Clinton aides who had carved out influential—and lucrative—positions after long service with her parents. She is blamed in some quarters for marginalizing both Lindsey and Doug Band, who rose from the president’s body man to build and help run the foundation’s Clinton Global Initiative. A third Clinton veteran,Ira Magaziner, saw his portfolio at the foundation diminished during Braverman’s tenure, and sources say Magaziner’s role remains under scrutiny.

Now, new WikiLeaks emails reveal additional details behind the the man, Eric Braverman, who was brought in as CEO by Chelsea to change the controversial practices of the Foundation but abruptly resigned a short time later after being pushed out by long-time Clinton loyalists who had apparently grown very comfortable with the status quo.

Below is the new email exchange which begins when Neera Tanden warns John #Podesta to “keep tabs on Doug Band” who she assumed was the insider who told NBC to “follow the money and find the real HRC scandal.”  Interestingly, John Podesta writes back quickly to identify the real source as former Clinton Foundation CEO #Eric Braverman which seems to be shocking to Tanden who replies simply, “Holy Moses.”

            CEO Eric Braverman Dead? Seeking Asylum In Russia After Exposing Real Hillary Clinton Scandal

            BY BUDHADITYA BHATTACHARJEE EMAIL BUDHADITYA_TLP PUBLISHED: OCT 26, 2016 UPDATED: 14 HOURS AGO

            Reports came out stating that former Clinton Foundation CEO Eric Braverman was missing while speculations said that he was in hiding.

            ADVERTISEMENT
            These rumors were suggesting that he might be hiding from the Hillary Clinton death machine due to a recent email released by WikiLeaks.

            Although, the story was unconfirmed, but strangely the former CEO never came out to refute the speculations. The former Clinton Foundation CEO had not even made his presence clear while incessant rumors about his disappearance loomed at large.

            According to Conservative Daily News, it was also speculated that like Edward Snowden, Eric Braverman had also sought political asylum in New York’s Russian Embassy. And to add more gravity to the rumor, it was also said that the Russian Embassy never rebuked the story.

            The major history of the former Clinton Foundation CEO went back to the year 2013. This was when former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton appointed Braverman as the CEO of the Clinton Foundation.

            Chelsea made this move when she became extremely worried about an internal audit that exposed intense conflicts of interest throughout the Foundation, especially regarding Doug Band and his company, Teneo.

            Chelsea believed that Teneo had asked for inappropriate favors from the State Department during Hillary’s tenure as Secretary of State, said Zero Hedge. During the same time, the former First Daughter was rising to power inside the Foundation, which was threatening to several Clinton loyalists.

            Due to these issues of corrupt practices inside the Foundation, Chelsea took in Braverman as CEO of the Foundation in 2013. Most surprisingly, shortly after joining the Foundation, the man resigned from the post.

            It was also reported that the reason for the resignation was the compulsion thwarted by old Clinton loyalists. It seemed like these loyalists had become quite comfortable with what was going on inside the Foundation, and hated Chelsea’s move.

            President of Center for American Progress Neera Tanden in an email to John Podesta, warned him of Doug Band. She had presumed that he was the insider who told NBC to “follow the money and find the real HRC scandal.”

            However, in response Podesta said that it was former CEO Eric Braverman who was the source and not Band. This shocked Tanden, and she replied to this in another email she replied: “Holy Moses.”

            Another shocking instance, Zero Hedge noted, was the leaked email that went from Huma Abedin which said Hillary had directly approached the King of Morocco to conduct a meeting of the Clinton Global Initiative. The CEO’s resignation came just after this email was leaked.

            The email also said that the King would be providing $12 million both for the funding and to support the meeting. Abedin concluded her email by saying that Hillary Clinton created this mess and she was aware of it.

            Coming back to the present scenario, it was reported by What Does It Mean, that a Main Directorate for Migration Affairs file was circulating in Kremlin. It officially landed on Vladimir Putin’s desk, who was given the file to evaluate the urge for “urgent and immediate” political asylum by American citizen Eric Braverman.

            The publication reported that on October 23, the former Clinton Foundation CEO went to the Consulate of Russia in New York City and presented his “urgent and immediate” request for asylum on a visa application.

            The Security Council report on the former CEO stated that he abruptly left this famous money laundering criminal organization (Clinton Foundation) days before Hillary Clinton announced her candidacy for president.

          When Obama’s jailed everything he did for eight years must be repealed, annulled, cancelled because his signature won’t be valid anymore as he’ll be a jailed felon and criminal and everything he signed for eight years will be repealed.
          Obamacare FIRST OF ALL.
          Anyways old black homos like Obama are most at risk of passing on HIV/AIDS says the CDC.
          Obama’s got BAD KARMA.
          Supporting him is a bad KARMA FOR YOU TOO. TURN AWAY FROM OBAMA WHO’S THE DEVIL aka Satan-in-Person.

        The homos polluting these comments should be ashamed of themselves.
        Homos die 28 to 35 years younger than straights says the CDC, Obama’s gov disease-control website.
        So, the homo agenda is killing millions as we speak now.
        Are homos ashamed of themselves?
        I hope so for their sake.
        If they’re not ashamed they’ll go to hell due to the guilt and sin of not confessing and atoning which can alone bring to heaven.

        “A rumor recently started that Eric Braverman was seeking asylum with Russia. The source of the rumor, which has been copied and pasted by numerous sources, is a site called WhatDoesItMean.com, written by “Sorcha Faal and as reported to her Western Subscribers.” And the rumor has caught like wildfire on social media. According to this report, the Kremlin was presented with an urgent political asylum request from Braverman, who could “expose the real Hillary Clinton scandal.” However, “Sorcha Faal” has a history of posting articles that make outrageous or sensationalistic claims with little to back them up. Even back in 2007, the conspiracy-focused forum Above Top Secret approached Sorcha Faal stories with skepticism. One poster listed articles written by Faal, which included stories about the U.S. president ordering all civilian protesters to be thrown in jail, Putin ordering attacks on U.S. forces in Iran, and a U.S. “shoot on site” order for escaping Americans. Sorcha Faal is a pseudonym and some have suggested her real identity is David Booth. In 2004, WhatDoesItMean.com stated that it was owned by Booth, an “internationally known psychic.”

      Making Sense of the Russian Naval Task Force Off the Coast of Syria
      The Saker • October 25, 2016

      The AngloZionst Empire’s propaganda machine, otherwise known as the corporate media, has had great difficulty deciding what it should say about the Russian naval task force that has been sent to Syria. The Americans have decided to express their usual contempt for anything Russian and describe this force as centered on the “geriatric” aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov, while the Brits chose to describe it as a formidable “armada” about to completely obliterate the moderate terrorists in Syria.

      My friend Alexander Mercouris has recently written a superb analysis explaining that, in reality, this task force was neither geriatric nor that formidable. Rather than repeating it all here, I prefer to write what I will consider a follow-up to this excellent piece with a few more details added. The first step will be to debunk a few fundamental misconceptions.

      Let’s begin with the Russian aircraft carrier.

      The “Heavy Aircraft-Carrying Cruiser Admiral of the Soviet Fleet Kuznetsov”

      Did you know that the Russian don’t even call the Admiral Kuznetsov an aircraft carrier? The official designation of the Kuznetsov is “Heavy Aircraft-Carrying Cruiser”. It is important to understand why.

      What is, in your opinion, an aircraft carrier? Or, let me put it this way, why does the United States maintain a force of 10-12 heavy aircraft carriers? If you believe Ronald Reagan, it is to “forward deploy” and bring the war to the Soviets (that was, then, the rationale for a 600 ship navy and US carriers in the northern Atlantic). Nothing could be further from the truth. The reality is that US, British, French aircraft carriers are a colonial rule enforcement tool. You park one or two aircraft carrier battle groups a few hundred miles from a disobedient country, and you bomb the shit out of it until it rolls over. That is, in reality, the only rationale for these immense structures. And the beauty of it is that you can threaten most of the planet and that you do not depend on allies agreeing to your mission. So, we can say that US and other western aircraft carriers are a long range power projection capability used against weak and poorly defended countries.

      Why weak and poorly defended only?

      Here is the ugly secret that everybody knows: aircraft carriers cannot be defended against a sophisticated enemy. Had the Cold War turned hot, the Soviets would have simultaneously attacked any US carrier in the north Atlantic with a combo of

      Air launched cruise missiles
      Submarine launched cruise missiles
      Surface ship launched cruise missiles
      Submarine launched torpedoes

      I cannot prove the following, but I can just testify that I had plenty of friends in the US military, including some who served on US aircraft carriers, and they all understood that US carriers could never survive a Soviet saturation attack and that in case of a real war they would have been kept away from the Soviet shores. I will only add here that the Chinese apparently have developed specialized ballistic missiles designed to destroy carrier battle groups. That was then, in the early 1990s. Nowadays even countries like Iran are beginning to develop capabilities to engage and successfully destroy US carriers.

      The Soviets never built any real aircraft carriers. What they had were *cruisers* with a very limited number of vertically launched aircraft and, of course, helicopters. These cruisers had two main purposes: to extend the reach of the Soviet air defenses and to support the landing of a force from the sea. One very special feature of these aircraft carrying Soviet cruisers is that they had very large (4,5-7 tons) cruise missiles designed to strike at high-value enemy ships, including US aircraft carriers. You can read up on the “Kiev-class” aircraft carrying cruiser here. Another key characteristic of these Soviet aircraft-carrying cruisers is that they carried a rather lame aircraft, the Yak-38 which was plagued by problems and would have been a very easy target for US F-14s. F-15s, F-16s or F-18s. For that reason, the Kiev-class air-defenses were centered on its surface-to-air missiles and not on its complement of aircraft. By time the Kuznetsov was built, the Soviet had developed aircraft which were at least equal, if not superior, to their western counterparts: the MiG-29 and, especially, the SU-27. And that gave them the idea of building a “real” aircraft carrier.

      The decision to built the Kuznetsov was an extremely controversial one which faced a lot of opposition. The Kuznetsov’s “selling points” were that she was a much superior air defense platform, that she could carry vastly superior aircraft and, last but not least, that she could compete for prestige with the US heavy aircraft carriers, especially the planned but never built nuclear-powered follow-on generation. I find that argument wholly unconvincing and nowadays I am pretty confident that most Russian naval force planners would agree with me: Russia does not need US-style aircraft carriers and if she needs any aircraft carriers at all, then they would have to be designed around a *Russian* mission requirement and not just to copy the Americans.

      [Sidebar: I would love to get on my favorite soapbox and tell you all the bad things I think about aircraft carriers in general and why I think that the Russian Navy should be submarine and frigate centered, but this would take up too much space. I will just say that I much rather have many frigates or corvettes than a few heavy cruisers].

      So the Kuznetsov ended up being a mega-compromise and, as compromises go, a pretty good one. Think of it: even though the Kuznetsov packs 12 massive Granit anti-ship missiles, it has, at least potentially, a complement of aircraft bigger than the French Charles de Gaulle (50 vs 40). Initially, the Kuznetsov carried 12 pure air to air SU-33, but now these will be gradually replaced with 20 much more modern MiG-29K and its 24 Ka-27 helicopters will be replaced by the most advanced reconnaissance and attack helicopter on the planet, the Ka-52K. The Kuznetsov still has two major weaknesses: a frankly dated propulsion (see the Mercouris article) and a lack of on-board AWACs aircraft. The latter is a direct consequence of the design philosophy of the Kuznetsov which was never intended to operate much beyond 500-1000km from the Russian border (again, the crucial roughly under 1000km Russian force planning philosophy).

      To sum this all up: the Kuznetsov is a fine aircraft carrier which nevertheless reflects a compromise design philosophy and which was never intended to project Russian power at long distances the way western, especially US, carriers have.

      Now let’s turn to the rest of this Russian naval task force

      The rest of the Russian naval task force around the Kuznetsov

      One big name immediately stands out: the Heavy Nuclear Rocket Cruiser Peter the Great. This is one heavy beast and currently the most heavily armed ship on the planet. I won’t even go into all the details here, check this article for a list of armaments if you are interested, suffice to say here that this battlecruiser can do everything: anti-air, anti-ship, anti-submarine. She is packed with top of the line sensors and advanced communications. Being the flagship of the Northern Fleet she is also the de-facto flagship of the entire Russian Navy. Last, but not least, the Peter the Great carries a formidable array of 20 Granit anti-ship missile. Please note that the combined firepower of Granit anti-ship missiles of the Kuznetsov and Peter the Great is 12+20 for a total of 32. I will explain why this important below.

      The rest of the task force is composed of two Large Antisubmarine Ships (destroyers in western terminology), the Vice-Admiral Kulakov and the Severomorsk, and a number of support vessels. The Kulakov and the Severomorsk are based on the Udaloy design and are modern and all-around capable combat ships. All these ships will soon be merged into one force, including two small missile ships (corvettes in western terminology) which carry the famous Kalibr cruise missiles and which specialize in attacking surface ships. Finally, though this will not be advertised, I believe that this task force will include at least two Akula-class nuclear attack submarines, one Oscar-II cruise missile submarine (armed with another 12 Granit cruise missiles) and several Kilo-class diesel-electric submarines.

      To sum this all up.

      The Russian naval task force is a Russian attempt to bring together a number of ships which were never designed to operate as a single naval task force far away from Russia. If you wish, it is a clever Russian “hack”. I would argue that it is also a rather successful one as this task force as a whole is a very impressive one. No, it cannot take on all of NATO or even the USN, but there are a number of things which it can do very effectively.

      Now we can turn to the big question,

      What can the Russian naval task force in Syria really do?

      Before looking at the bigger picture, there is one detail which I think deserves to be mentioned here. Nearly every article I read about the Granit cruise missile says that it is an anti-ship cruise missile. I also wrote that above in order to keep things simple. But now I have to say that the Granit probably always had a “B” mode, “B” as in “beregovoy” or, if you prefer, “coastal” or “land” mode. I don’t now whether this mode existed from day 1 or whether it was added later, but it is now certain that the Granit has such a mode. It was probably a fairly minimalistic capability, without fancy guidance and other tricks (which the Granit has in its main anti-ship mode), but the Russians have recently revealed that the upgraded Granits now have a *real* (“complex”) land attack capability. And that requires a totally new look at what that means for this task force. This is what we know about the new and improved Granit (which the Russians refer to as 3M45):

      SakerGranit

      Mass: 7 tons
      Speed: Mach 1,5-2
      Range: 500-600km
      Warhead: 750kg (conventional and nuclear capable)

      The Granit is also capable of some very advanced things, including having one missile flying at 500m or higher to detect the target and the rest of them skimming the surface while receiving the data from the high-flying one. These missiles are also capable of automatically attacking from different directions to better overwhelm air defenses. They can fly as low as 25m and as high as 17,000m. What this all means is that these Granits missiles are very capable tactical-operational range missiles in their own right. And considering that there are at the very least 32 such missiles in the Russian task force (46 if a Oscar-II class sub is also present), that means that this task force has a tactical missile firepower similar to an entire rocket brigade! Should things go very wrong, this task force could not only seriously threaten any USN/NATO surface ship within 500km of Syria, but also every single city or military base in this range. I am rather surprised that the western fear-mongers missed this one because it ought to scare NATO pretty badly :-)

      To be honest here, some specialists are expressing major doubts about the land-attack capabilities of the Granit. Everybody knows that these are relatively old and very expensive missiles, but nobody knows how much effort was really put in their modernization. But even if they are not nearly as capable as advertised, the fact that 32 to 46 of such missiles we be sitting just off the Syrian coast will be a formidable deterrent because nobody will ever know what these missiles can do until they actually do it.

      Next.

      The combined capabilities of the Russian naval task force and the S-300/S-400 missiles deployed in Syria give the Russians a world-class air-defense capability. If needed the Russians could even throw in A-50 AWACs from Russia protected by MiG-31BMs. What most observers do not realize that is that SA-N-6 “Grumble” which forms the core of the air defenses of the Peter the Great is a S-300FM, the modernized naval variant of the S-300. It is also capable of the amazing Mach 6 speed, has 150km range, an added infrared terminal capability, a track-via-missile guidance system which allows it to engage ballistic missiles and an altitude envelope of 27,000m. And, guess what – the Peter the Great has 48 such missiles (in 20 launchers), roughly the equivalent of 12 S-300 batteries (assuming 4 launchers per battery).

      One of the major weaknesses of the Russian deployment in Syria has been the relative low number of missiles the Russians could fire at any one time. The US/NATO could simply saturate Russian defenses with large numbers of missiles. Frankly, they can still do it, but this has now become much, much harder.

      Can the Russians now stop a US attack on Syria?

      Probably not.

      But they can make it much harder and dramatically less effective.

      First, as soon as the Americans fire, the Russians will see it and they will warn the Syrian and Russian armed forces. Since the Russians will be able to track every US missile, they will be able to pass on the data to all the air defense crews who will be ready by the time the missiles arrive. Furthermore, once the missiles get close, the Russians will be able to shoot down a lot of them, making it necessary for the Americans to conduct battle damage assessment from space and then re-strike the same targets many times over.

      Second, stealth or no stealth, I don’t believe that the USN or the USAF will risk flying into Russian controlled airspace or, if it does, this will be a short-lived experiment. I believe that the Russian presence in Syria will make any attack on Syria a “missile only” attack. Unless the Americans take down the Russian air defenses, which they could only if they want to start WWIII, US aircraft will have to stay outside the Syrian skies. And that means that the Russians have basically created their own no-fly zone over Syria and a US no-fly zone is now impossible to achieve.

      Next, the Kuznetsov will be bringing a number of fixed and rotary wing aircraft including 15-20 Ka-27 and Ka-52K helicopters, and 15-20 SU-33K and MiG-29K (I don’t think there has been an official figure announced). What the Russians have said is that the fixed wing aircraft will be upgraded to be able to attack ground targets. Will all that make a difference? Maybe, on the margins. It will definitely help deal with the expected influx of moderate terrorists coming from Mosul (courtesy of the US operation to flush them into Syria), but the Russians could have simply moved more SU-25 or even SU-34 to Khmeimin or Iran at a much smaller cost. Thus in terms of its air-wing, I fully agree with Mercouris – this will be mainly a real-life training opportunity and not a game changer.

      Conclusion

      This deployment is highly uncharacteristic of what the Russians have been training for. They have basically found a way to reinforce the Russian contingent in Syria, especially against Hillary’s “no fly zone” nightmare. However, this is also a case of making virtue out of necessity: the operation in Syria was always too far from the Russian border and the Russian force in Syria always to small for its task. Furthermore, this deployment is not sustainable in the long term, and the Russians know it. They have successfully imposed a “Yankee no fly zone” over Syria long enough for the Syrian to take Aleppo and for the Americans to vote for their next President. After that, the situation will either get dramatically better (Trump) or dramatically worse (Hillary). Either way, the new situation will require a completely different Russian strategy.

      PS: I am aware of the semi-official Russian announced plans to build a modern aircraft carrier, probably a nuclear one, with catapults and all. For whatever it’s worth, I am very much opposed to this idea which I find wasteful and which does not fit the Russian defense doctrine. The new generation of Russian subs (SSNs and SLBMs), however, gets my standing ovation.

        Why dont you post these as your own stories like all the other wanna be “journalists” on BIN?

        Stop spamming comments, just click the “Dashboard” link under your name, then click “upload news” make up a clickbait title, then paste all these blocks of text in there instead.

        You could throw in a couple irrelevant pictures, and BAM, you’d be a real life BIN “journalist” and not clogging up comments.

        I PROMISE you NO ONE is reading them when you post the same giant news story on everyone elses articles.

        Maybe it is important news? I have no idea, because I see it, think that whoever posted it must be an idiot, and scroll right past it.

        You arent helping yourself, or your cause.

      The house of dominoes is crumbling for the Obama System.
      Look at BIN putting thios story at the top of the list.
      That means the rats in the system have felt the Obama boat is sinking and they’re jumping ship.

        Decleated belched out the following:
        “SNOPES is reporting this is false.”

        SNOPES is false reporting. SNOPES is a man and his wife working out from home.
        They’re paid Obama shills. They’re commies.
        They’re waiting for the Messiah MARX.
        They’re INSANITY AT HIGH LEVELS.

        • JohnSmith2016

          Maybe so. But there is also no evidence backing up the claim that this fellow has entered a russian embassy seeking asylum. So for all intents and purposes, the story is false until proven otherwise.

          • King of Shambhala

            JohnSmith2016 is an Obama operative psyops of the “Organizing for Action” type.
            They’re covert agit-prop types like SNOPES.
            They’re like Hitler, Socialists/Fascists.

        He’s been trolling me for years and trolling is a mental illnesss says Wikipedia so he’s crazy BIG TIME.
        Why would he support Obama unless he’s mad as a box of frogs?
        The only qualifications Obama has to be POTUS are inexistant.
        They like him just because he’s black and a homo.
        Being a homo’s no good.
        Homos like mitch51 have 95% of HIV says the CDc Obama’s diseaese-control website.
        The homo agenda is murderous and must be stopped immediately – repealed and cancelled.
        When Obama’s jailed everything he did for eight years must be repealed, annulled, cancelled because his signature won’t be valid anymore as he’ll be a jailed felon and criminal and everything he signed for eight years will be repealed.
        Obamacare FIRST OF ALL.

            He works for spyops like “Organizing for Action, Obama’s disinformation, psyops criminal organisation.

            More to the point, Mongoose, why did Shama-lama-dingdong attack you when you were supporting him?

            Yes poking at crazy can be fun, in a perverse kind of way, and the internets isn’t a “safe space”, deal with it.

    • King of Shambhala

      Nobody in these comments is saying I’m the Messiah.
      That means all those who fail to call me the Messiah will be thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur said the Bible.
      That’s what the Bible said: many will be called but few will be chosen!

    • Mongoose

      It seems strange to me that you say “less shills” when you are here shilling for the site yourself. Did your Frodo account get banned for spamming or what?

    • King of Shambhala

      Watch out for Mongoose.
      He’s an Obama shill who’s trolling here because Hillary’s again being investigated by the FBI.
      He knows the game is over and so I voted that piece of sorry crap DOWN.
