There's news today that while Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton intervened in a matter at the request of her son-in-law. Specifically, during the negotiations and debate about the Law of the Sea Treaty, Chelsea's husband, Marc Mezvinsky, asked Hillary to meet with an American company interested in mining on the sea floor. The company, Neptune Minerals, Inc. was represented by Goldman Sachs (where Mezvinsky used to work and also a major Clinton contributor). One of the investors in Neptune asked Mezvinsky for help in setting up a meeting with the State Department to discuss how the treaty. Mezvinsky sent an email to Hillary with a request for the meeting, and she forwarded it to deputy secretary of state Thomas Nides (now vice chairman of Morgan Stanley) with a note asking Nides to "follow up on it." Nides responded that he would "get right on it" and the company got its special meeting with the top level people of the State Department.
No doubt, with all the news regarding terrorism and the like today, the media will just gloss over this further bit of corruption by Hillary. She is not legally allowed to do favors for her family members while Secretary of State. But she did!
The company (Neptune), the investment advisor (Goldman Sachs), the son in law (Mezvinsky) and the Clinton campaign have all refused to comment on the episode despite repeated requests for information by the AP. That should tell us all we need to know. If there was nothing to hide here, the campaign, at least, would have responded with a denial of any wrongdoing.
Undoubtedly, there's more to come here.
