"The Office of Net Assessment is so sensitive, the specialized think tank is housed in the Office of the Secretary of Defense and reports directly to the secretary.

To date, the Long Term Strategy Group has received $11.2 million in contracts,
according to USAspending,gov, a government database of federal contracts."

....but it does not have Security Clearances / Approval To Handle Classified.... WTF?!


"A company whose president is “best friends” with Chelsea Clinton received more than $11 million in contracts over the last decade from a highly secretive Department of Defense think tank, but to date, the group lacks official federal approval to handle classified materials"

"...after winning a decade of contracts from the Office of Net Assessment, the federal agency is only now in the process of granting clearance to the company."


It's amazing how exposing that classified servers are being operated, individuals who have no security clearances are being given access to classified, and how companies who do not have security clearances or approval to handle classified information are allowed to store Top Secret servers in their un-protected bathrooms suddenly sends companies who have been operating illegally scrambling for approval and required security clearances...


"Newmyer declined to address her company’s lack of facilities to handle classified material."
- OF COURSE she did....

"She also declined to say whether her company is footing the bill for the new secure facility, or if the taxpayers are footing the bill through the Office of Net Assessment."
- OF COURSE she did, and OF COURSE tax payers will be stuck with the bill....



"Clinton and Newmyer first met each other while attending Sidwell Friends School, an exclusive private Quaker school in the nation’s capital. They were in each other’s weddings, and in 2011 Chelsea referred to Newmyer as her “best friend.”

Isn't that 'SPECIAL'?!


CAN YOU SAY INFLUENCE-PEDDLING / CRONYISM?
- "In numerous emails, Chelsea’s mom, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, actively promoted Newmyer and attempted to assist her in securing Defense Department contracts.

Secretary Clinton put Newmyer in contact with Michèle Flournoy, then-President Barack Obama’s undersecretary of defense,
according to the emails from Clinton’s private email server released by the Department of State under a lawsuit filed by the conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch."


[BTW: CRONYISM - 'The appointment of friends and associates to positions of authority, without proper regard to their qualifications.' I think helping to award multi-million dollar contracts to work on highly secretive / classified projects to your daughter's friend's company that has no security clearance or required approval to work with classified information counts as 'Cronyism'.]


EXCLUSIVE: Chelsea’s ‘Best Friend’ Wins $11 Mil In Defense Contracts With No Clearance
 
That is politics, and Clinton's play the game as well as anybody ever has, but to be fair and honest, folks like John McCain have played this game too. Influence peddling is not the exclusive MO of the Clinton's. They just happen to be the best and thus provide the most egregious examples.
