GE CEO: I Will Not Release State Department Emails From The Beest
2015-04-23
[Daily Caller] General Electric (GE) CEO Jeffrey Immelt said Wednesday that he will not release the emails that GE exchanged with Hillary Clinton's State Department during the period in which GE was donating to the Clinton Foundation.

"Again, I think that's not something we would do. Right?" Immelt said at GE's shareholder meeting in Oklahoma City, OK in response to a question from Justin Danhof of the National Center For Public Policy Research, who pressed the CEO to release written communications with the State Department.

Secretary of State Clinton lobbied the Algerian president in 2012 to pick GE as a contractor for Algerian power plants. GE got the Algeria deal and quickly thereafter donated to the Clinton Foundation. Clinton also lobbied on behalf of Clinton Foundation donors including Boeing and Chevron.

"I think for a global company it's very normal business where the State Department and or other officials actually help us around the world" Immelt said in the exchange, audio of which was reviewed by TheDC. "And we do that today. We did that in the past. I hope we do that always."

#1  I guess since GE is up to their neck in favoritism with the current administration and its myrmidons, and considering such favoritism has netted the gift of not paying any income taxes, I would think the GE CEO is probably thinking about his own financial best interests rather than Hildabeast.
