United States News Title: WIKILEAKS - Re: Proposed Final for Infrastructure Memo [Excerpt] How then do we go through an exercise like this and wjc doesn't as he is far more conflicted every single day in what he does? Why not apply the structure you set up for him to this situation? Ira runs chai and has been doing outside consulting all these years Bob harrison has a ton of goldman stock and makes decisions on goldmans engagement/role in cgi Valerie uses office space of a donor in chicago Bruce was paid by his law firm for years and may still be People sit on boards, for profit ones and not for profit ones I am sure there are many others we don't know about Cvc uses office space to run a business so when I'm on the phone with brian williams and he raises her paid personal relationship and intertwines that with the foundation int wjc is doing on the book I just don't think any of this is right and that we should be treated this way when no one else is only bc cvc has nothing better to do and need justify her existence. It is as though we have done something wrong and a document like this only furthers that notion and thus, I'm not ok with it. [...] Teneo is the only one of any of those that are additive to the foundation. Ira doesn't get dow corning or whoever he advises to donate nor does bob get goldman to do much. Everyone takes, everyone, except we are the ones who do everything back to him. WIKILEAKS - Re: Proposed Final for Infrastructure Memo https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/19165 Re: Proposed Final for Infrastructure Memo From: Justin@presidentclinton.com Subject: Re: Proposed Final for Infrastructure Memo Let me preface this by saying I am hardly awake. I echo dougs comments below. Option 4 and 5 are straight forward. Options 1, 2 and 3 are not. It is not clear how these alternatives would practically work. It is not at all clear how we would interface with the other people involved. And it does not address how wjcs activities interface with each other or how this structure resolves his own conflicts. Further I'd does not address how to resolve percieved conflicts which might occur with Teneo. Are Teneo clients asked not to ever engage in the foundation? Are foundation donors not to engage with Teneo? Can WJC's private funders engage with the foundation etc. I will work with Doug on some versions of 1 2 and 3 that are more practical in the day to day. I am on a plane till Monday, not in NY till Tuesday, and the only person staffing wjc on this trip so we may need some time to regroup. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ----- Original Message ----- Subject: Re: Proposed Final for Infrastructure Memo Thx Got it Will work on it with cooper who is on a plane for next 20 hours on and off - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ----- Original Message ----- Subject: Re: Proposed Final for Infrastructure Memo Good copy - suggest an alternate framework (this document reflects one we discussed last saturday) - my expectation would be that this model b/cs model for all the other similarly situated folks - so template would apply equally but we can make that more transparent. Many of issues you flag will get captured by corporate audit and receive common policy application as against all entities/individuals with multiple lines. But the real question we should know answer to b/f this goes forward is what do you want as the structure - w/o knowing that, this exeercise is academic and w/ that we can guide and shape this better. Cdm - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - On 11/13/11, Doug Band wrote: I'm taking the day with my family in pa and need time with this document I propose a call later this evening or tomorrow In short, and somewhat disjointed comments here I think this misses the practical realities on how the place operates as well as puts one way of treating me and justin and another for everyone else, including wjc and cvc Justin and I already are not employees of the foundation We are employees of cesc But we could make it more official as advisors to it or something Otherwise, raising money for it would be odd with no connectivity As you both have seen by my memo, you now understand the facts of teneo How then do we go through an exercise like this and wjc doesn't as he is far more conflicted every single day in what he does? Why not apply the structure you set up for him to this situation? Ira runs chai and has been doing outside consulting all these years Bob harrison has a ton of goldman stock and makes decisions on goldmans engagement/role in cgi Valerie uses office space of a donor in chicago Bruce was paid by his law firm for years and may still be People sit on boards, for profit ones and not for profit ones I am sure there are many others we don't know about Cvc uses office space to run a business so when I'm on the phone with brian williams and he raises her paid personal relationship and intertwines that with the foundation int wjc is doing on the book I just don't think any of this is right and that we should be treated this way when no one else is only bc cvc has nothing better to do and need justify her existence. It is as though we have done something wrong and a document like this only furthers that notion and thus, I'm not ok with it. I could see a structure where justin doesn't do finances We both become advisers or consultants to the foundation, officially Wjc has a contractual consultant relationship with teneo, nothing else Not sure how to characterize or link the teneo raising millions for the foundation relationship We have a ceo and structure that all of these things go through such as, Cvc's activities, using office space, ira consulting, a teneo client intersecting with the foundation, etc. Perhaps an ethics officer like state has, which can be yet another staff person I get to raise the money to pay..... Decision making is somehow decentralized Teneo is the only one of any of those that are additive to the foundation. Ira doesn't get dow corning or whoever he advises to donate nor does bob get goldman to do much. Everyone takes, everyone, except we are the ones who do everything back to him. I have partners at teneo as you know and they don't want any part of this managing wjc concept so that need be removed entirely. The only relationship teneo should have is contractual w wjc and him as an advisor, the same as he does for becker and casey etc This seems to be more about lines and authority and decision making and I think we propose them one plan we all come up with that addresses all of the above and covers everyone, evenly and comprehensively. Cdm, you remember the long debate we had about whether I should even include wjc in teneo. The notion that its built on him is ridiculous. Our conversation with wjc over dinner was in a very different place and according to him, he wants things to go back to normal. So I understand it, this is primarily to appease cvc I presume? But we all know what this is actually about and thus overeacting, hurting the foundation, impairing teneo's business etc Won't end well Justy need chime in here - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - From: Cheryl Mills [mailto:cheryl.mills@gmail.com] Subject: Proposed Final for Infrastructure Memo Doug/Justin Attached is the revised proposed final draft of the infrastructure memo. John has given his comments which are incorporated. If you could give me yours, I will put in final and circulate it to the four of us and the President and his family. I also would share an fyi copy with Victoria and Jennifer. thanks. cdm -- Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top • Page Up • Full Thread • Page Down • Bottom/Latest

Boy what a crooked bunch. Absolutely no air time other than Fox News
You should make a Wikileaks Hillary/DNC ping list.
WIKILEAKS - Doug Band - WJC conflict of interest https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/21978#content From:doug@presidentclinton.com Subject: Re: Also I signed a conflict of interest policy as a board member of cgi On it, I wrote that my wife designs bags for cgi, and loses money doing so plus donating her time And that teneo represents 4 cgi sponsors, 3 of which teneo brought to cgi. Oddly, wjc does not have to sign such a document even though he is personally paid by 3 cgi sponsors, gets many expensive gifts from them, some that are at home etc I could add 500 different examples of things like this and while I removed lasry bc they are all on the offense, I get the sense that they are trying to put some sort of wrong doing on me after the audit as a crutch to change things and if I don't mention things like lasry where they all have issues, I may regret it - - - - - - - - - - ----- Original Message ----- To: 'john.podesta@gmail.com' ; 'jpodesta@americanprogress.org' Cc: 'cheryl.mills@gmail.com' ; Justin Cooper Subject: Re: Apologies Pls let me know if you have comments asap - - - - - - - - - - ----- Original Message ----- To: John Podesta Cc: Cheryl Mills Mills ; Justin Cooper Subject: attached is a draft reflecting Jon's suggestions im not sure that i put the memo in order pursuant to the section rearrangement so if i didn't, it was unintentional any further recommendations are appreciated as i think this is a very important document i would like to get it to them tomorrow or as soon as possible so please let me know your thoughts
I made my first pinglist ever, WIKILEAKS. Your idea, I added you to it. I just made it WIKILEAKS so it stays relevant after the election.
