Podesta: "fresh handmade tortillas flown in from Mexico" (pizzagate)

submitted ago by zzvoat

I just left this info for David Seaman under his newest video, which included lifting up a line from an email that we read when it first came out but, for some reason never flagged. Terrific that someone did AND there's even more.

FROM THE SAME EMAIL: https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/26903

Here's the money line:

"fresh, handmade tortillas flown in from Mexico the previous day, "

No one needs to fly handmade tortillas in at all, let alone a day ahead of time for any party. There are a million places in DC that make authentic handmade Mexican tortillas, which would actually be fresher if purchased the day of the party.

Googled "Washington, DC handmade mexican tortillas"

872, 000 returns

Gee, with Obama's $65,000 in pizza and hotdogs being flown in from Chicago and all these handmade tortillas being flown in from Mexico there is certainly a lot of "flying around" of food, isn't there?

The only evidence for taxpayer money being spent on "pizza/hotdogs" is an email from a guy in Austin without firsthand knowledge. It's basically a claim with no supporting evidence.

Googling Six Billion Missing gives me this as the first result.

The $6 billion was not missing or stolen — it had been doled out in a number of contracts — but the paperwork was missing.

Oh well that just clears everything up. They aren't missing $6 billion. They just have no proof of where the $6 billion went.

Politifact is full of shit.

The 6 Billion figure comes from a specific report from the IG's office and the IG has clarified the money was not missing and people were misinterpreting the report.

You claim Politifact is full of shit, show me how they are wrong on this.

First, show me where the $6 billion was spent. Wait, there aren't any records of it. So how was trump wrong in saying that the $6 billion is unaccounted for? All this politico says is we are suppose to take their word for it that there were contracts, but there just isn't any records of the contracts.

Most of the 6 billion was spent in Iraq on 115 different contracts. Another billion was on the Afghan police.

He's wrong in that the Inspector General never said any money was missing let alone 6 million. The issue arose was during "audit of the contract closeout process" and the issue was mainly some missing paperwork. The Inspector General issued a report that dealt with Contract File Management Deficiencies, NOT missing money. The Inspector General later clarified the report when people began misinterpreting it. The Inspector General said they needed better record keeping practices or else it

**could expose ****the Department to substantial financial losses.

Trump also said this was under Clinton and most the contracts were from the previous administration. So he was doubly wrong.

Here's the report https://oig.state.gov/system/files/224580.pdf Here's the clarification from the Inspector General himself.

I appreciate the response. A lot of times these conversations just turn into a name calling shit show.

I'll give those links a look later when I am done at work. Politifact just has a clear bias. That's what I meant when I said they are full of shit.
