uh-oh
John Podesta, special counsellor to President Obama and Hillary’s 2016 campaign chairman, may have violated federal law by not disclosing 75,000 shares of stock from a company with close ties to the Kremlin.
Podesta received the shares from Joule Unlimited Technologies while serving on the company’s board back in 2010. After announcing he was leaving the company to work at the White House in 2014, he was awarded an additional 75,000 common share stocks.
The Schedule B section of the financial disclosure forms for government officials demands that new employees "report any purchase, sale or exchange by you, your spouse, or dependent children…of any property, stocks, bonds, commodity futures and other securities when the amount of the transaction exceeded $1,000.”
Apparently, Podesta didn’t find it necessary to disclose tens of thousands of shares of stock, and left that section completely blank.
This new information has been swiftly condemned by both conservatives and liberals.
Podesta served on Joule’s board with three top-ranking Russian banking executives and the company received over $35 million from the Russian government.
