KHAN: Needs Hillary in the White House

| August 14, 2016 9:00 PM

Khizr Khan used his position as a father of a Gold Star Family to bait Donald Trump and encourage veterans to disassociate with and demean Trump. He openly accused Trump of sacrificing nothing for his country thereby placing Trump on the defensive. Trump took the bait, but should have reminded Khan that Bill Clinton was a draft dodger who sacrificed nothing and didn’t create one employment opportunity for anyone but himself.

However, let’s get back to the real reason Khan needs Hillary in the White House. Khan has close ties to Saudi Arabia and is involved in the Department of Homeland Security EB-5 government program to immigrate wealthy Muslims into the United States. The middlemen in this immigration process are usually immigration attorneys who receive up to $60,000 from each foreign green card. Khan knows that under Trump his lavish livelihood is in jeopardy.

Tony Rodham, Hillary’s brother, and Terry McAuliffe, Virginia’s governor, between 2009 and 2012 gathered more than a hundred visa-applications raising more than $65 million from these applicants. They received more than $7 million for their efforts. The scandal resulted in a ethics investigation (since stonewalled) against Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) head and former Clinton-appointee, Alejandro Mayorkas. It is well-known that big boosters of the program are Chuck Schumer and Harry Reid. Both Rodham and McAuliffe (Hillary’s Bagman) have close business ties to the Clinton Foundation.

The basic premise for any investigation is motive, and greed is a basic motivator. A good investigator always follows the money trail. Interested in learning more, plenty has been written concerning the nefarious association of these players.
