#Wikileaks- Clinton Soliciting Campaign Donations from Turkey For Favorable Treatment

[ABX]

This sure reads like the Clinton camp is finding a way to get campaign donations from Turkey (illegal) through third parties (remember Charlie Trie? Just like that)....

Here are the two people that were called out that Turkey is channeling donations through.

Ali Cinar- http://alicinar.com/

John, heard this second hand but more than once. Seems Erdogan faction is
making substantial investments in U.S. to counter opposition (CHP, Kurds,
Gulenists etc.) outreach to policymakers and USG. Am told that the Erdogan
crew also tries to make inroads via donations to Democratic candidates,
including yours. Two names that you should be aware of are *Mehmet Celebi*
and *Ali Cinar*. Happy to elaborate on the phone, provided you are not
shopping at the liquor store.

Please keep this one bumped. This is the Charlie Trie scandal all over again. Especially interesting not only because this is illegal funneling of campaign donations, but because Erdogan is a huge supporter of ISIS and overall nutcase.

You're right - if that's what it is, it's big.

If someone has time, dig for other references to those names in the Wikileaks and also see if you can find references to donations from them in Open Secrets.

Actually, now that the door is open, I have a feeling Wikileaks and others like them will be hitting her full bore if she wins. For hackers, once that door is open, a thousand doors are open.

Hell, they even have president Obama's personal email address in these... I could only guess if they got into that.

Celebi doesn't ring any bells, but Cinar ... I'll have a dig. He has been in the news in the UK and in France for similar attempts.
