Clinton fetes with illegal fundraiser

Melissa Moss Named by Nolanda Hill As Being Behind Illegal Sale of Seats On Clinton Commerce Department Trade Missions

Illegal Scheme Devised by Hillary Clinton

(Washington, July 21) Yesterday evening, President Clinton again displayed his arrogant lawlessness - this time partying with Melissa Moss. Ms. Moss, a former DNC fundraiser under the late Clinton Commerce Secretary Ron Brown, was named by Nolanda Hill, Brown's business partner and confidante, as being part of a scheme devised by Hillary Clinton and implemented by Harold Ickes to illegally sell seats on Clinton Commerce Department trade missions.

On one trade mission to China in 1994, Johnny Chung and Charlie Trie joined the U.S. delegation, led by colleagues of John Huang. Despite a request by the Court in Judicial Watch's Chinagate case to refute Ms. Hill's testimony, the White House has been unable to do so.

"That the President would still go to these types of people and events to raise political money, shows how brazen he is," stated Judicial Watch Chairman Larry Klayman and President Tom Fitton. "The more things change, the more they remain the same. Judicial Watch intends to make change by holding the Clintons and their friends accountable," they added.
