$40 million in gold bars? If I did my math right, that's about 560 lb.

Crazy part is that he was comfortable enough to store it at home.
Second part is, how much gold do those turds have access to if he felt comfortable skimming 500+lbs of it.
How much did Eric holder/Hussein Obama authorize to be spent to run guns into Mexico in an attempt to undermine Americans' constitutional rights?amercer said:
How exactly do you file an expense report that requires 40 million in gold bars? Is that like a special form or something?

If 10% of the gold was missing from this guy's house I think I know who was involved.

I know it said Kilo bars
But back of the envelope math puts that at just under 9,000 oz at this mornings price. That is NOT a small pile of gold
Spot gold is about $4400 / oz this morning.
Edit -- Converting troy oz to lbs... About 610lbs of gold bars

This is odd. Especially the facts in the linked article. I had read he was a higher ranking CIA officer who used money for operations to buy gold. Now I'm learning he faked being in the navy and graduating from Clemson? Wtf? Is our government simply not doing background checks for these security clearances?
I got listed as a reference by a friend when they applied for security clearance. I got asked so many questions I felt like I should have gotten clearance myself afterwards.

Any chance this was part of the gold that was rumored to have been taken from Libya while Hillary was SOS?

Any real details? Gold and cash arent illegal
They were CIA gold bars and CIA cash that he requested for his operations.
How any of that makes sense I don't know, but it sounds lile maybe he shouldn't be the only one getting arrested?
