WikiLeaks: Chelsea Clinton Used Foundation Cash for Her Wedding
[PoliZet] Former Clinton Foundation executive Doug Band accused Chelsea Clinton of using the private charity’s resources for her "wedding and life for a decade," according to a new email published by WikiLeaks in its Podesta emails series.

The new email was released Sunday as part of a chain, some of which had been released in earlier dumps from WikiLeaks.

In the January 2012 chain, Band told Hillary Clinton campaign Chairman John Podesta that he had just learned from a close friend of former President Bill Clinton’s that Chelsea Clinton was responsible for launching an internal investigation into the foundation’s finances and the Clinton Global Initiative.

Band was less than pleased with Clinton’s "not smart" behavior, especially since he’d heard how Chelsea and one of former President George W. Bush’s daughters had engaged in "more and more chatter" over the foundation’s internal dealings. Podesta concurred, telling Band, "You are perfecting your skills for understatement."

But in the newly released email, Band took his spat with Clinton a step further when he insinuated that she was by no means innocent herself.

#3 I don't expect much will be done about it either. Our legal system has been out to lunch.

#5 I'm sure she used the cash form some Emir of Something-or-Other, so it's OK.

Yes, I understand the term "fungible" and I'm sure the Clintons know the concept, if not the meaning of the word.

#6 That's ok. Marrying her was an act of charity.
