EXPOSED: Hillary Secretly Took Cash From Firm Who Won Shady $418M Kenyan Arms Deal

Hillary Clinton is off the campaign trail, but the scandals keep coming!
Breaking Celebrity News has exclusively learned that the disgraced politico secretly took cash from a New York-based weapon manufacturer – one who coincidentally secured a shady $418 million deal on the last day of the Obama Administration!
A world exclusive Breaking Celebrity News investigation uncovered troubling links between Clinton and L3 Technologies, an arms manufacturer that recently won a megabucks deal to provide 14 warplanes to Kenya. Other high-ranking Democrats such as John Kerry, the late Ted Kennedy and his son Patrick were also implicated in the probe.
According to Federal Election Commission records exclusively obtained by Breaking Celebrity News, L3 Technologies' political action committee directly donated to Clinton as far as back as 2005.
What's more, Breaking Celebrity News discovered, in other instances, L3's PAC (political action committee) contributed funds to other PACs that then funneled money to Clinton.
For instance, on April 23, 2007, and again on Feb. 21, 2008, L3's PAC donated $1,000 to BEST PAC, which then gave $2,300 to Clinton for President on Feb. 14, 2008, while she battled Barack Obama for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.
Years later, L3 cashed in to the tune of nearly half a billion dollars with a bombshell deal.
This January, L3 Technologies was contracted to provide 12 warplanes, two trainer planes and "services" for missions to be waged against the al-Qaeda-linked terrorist group Al-Shabaab.
The sale was approved by the State Department, headed by then-Secretary of State John Kerry and privately advised to Congress on Jan. 19.
Shockingly, the deal was inked despite the fact that another arms company – one founded by a U.S. Army veteran! – had submitted a bid for $180 million, less than HALF of the tab billed by L3, according to critics.
What's more, while L3 has reportedly NEVER before produced the sort of planes involved in the deal, the other, lower-cost company — IOMAX USA, Inc. out of Mooresville, N.C. — have made those very planes for years.
The deal has raised eyebrows among both Democrats AND Republicans on Capital Hill — and has more than a few calling for a Congressional investigation.
"My office has received credible allegations of faulty contracting practices, fraud, and unfair treatment surrounding this sale," said North Carolina congressman Ted Budd, a Republican.
Even more troubling links between L3 and Democratic leaders, including Hillary, have emerged as part of Breaking Celebrity News's probe.
For example, Federal Election Commission records show that in the years leading up to the deal, L3 also contributed to the ranking Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, Adam Smith, as well as to the late Ted Kennedy and his son, Patrick.
Between July 19, 2004, and Oct. 5, 2010, L3 donated $17,000 to both Kennedys and Kerry, according to FEC records unearthed by Breaking Celebrity News.
But that's not all: Wall Street expert Charles Ortel exclusively told Breaking Celebrity News about another suspicious tie between L3 and the Clintons.
