Quote:Aussie Complaints Headed to FBI on Clinton Foundation’s Dealings Down Under.

Retired Australian police detective Michael Smith has accumulated
startling evidence of millions of dollars mishandled.

'An Australian investigative journalist who is a retired police detective said Tuesday he has been asked
to provide the FBI with details about multiple allegations of mishandling millions of dollars contributed to
the Clinton Foundation by the Aussie government.



“I have been asked to provide the FBI with further and better particulars about allegations regarding
improper donations to the CF funded by Australian taxpayers,” Michael Smith told LifeZette.

At the center of Smith’s complaints are former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State and 2016
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, and multiple Australian government officials, including
senior diplomat Alexander Downer, that government’s high commissioner to the United Kingdom.

Downer hit U.S. headlines recently when he was reported to have told the FBI of a May 2016 conversation
he had with George Papadopoulos, then a campaign aide to President Donald Trump. Downer told U.S.
law enforcement officials that Papadopoulos told him Russia had “dirt” on Hillary Clinton.

The New York Times claimed in its Dec. 30, 2017, story that the information Downer gave the FBI was a
major factor in the bureau’s decision to investigate allegations of collusion between Russian interests and
the Trump campaign. Papadopoulos pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI last year.

The materials Smith is giving the FBI focus on a 2006 memorandum of understanding between the Australian
government and the Clinton Foundation’s Clinton HIV/AIDs Initiative (CHAI).
Smith claims the foundation received a “$25M financial advantage dishonestly obtained by deception” as a
result of actions by Bill Clinton and Downer, who was then Australia’s minister of foreign affairs.

Also included in the Smith materials are evidence he believes shows “corrupt October 2006 backdating of
false tender advertisements purporting to advertise the availability of a $15 million contract to provide
HIV/AIDS services in Papua New Guinea on behalf of the Australian government after an agreement was
already in place to pay the Clinton Foundation and/or associates.”

A third complaint concerns what Smith describes as “the $10 million financial advantage dishonestly obtained
by deception between April 1, 2008, and Sept. 25, 2008, at Washington, D.C., New York, New York, and
Canberra Australia involving an MOU between the Australian government, the “Clinton Climate Initiative,”
and the purported “Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute Inc.”

A spokesman for the Clinton Foundation did not respond to LifeZette’s request for comment early Tuesday...'
