LEO DICAPRIO'S DIRTY DOLLARS

[Geee]

Front Page Magazine:

Actor-playboy Leonardo DiCaprio walked away from a fender bender in the Hamptons this weekend without a scratch.

 

But the outspoken liberal should not escape unscathed from his train wreck of high-dollar financial dealings with donors and businessmen in one of world's most rotten regimes.

 

Forget about the saving the environment, son. Clean up your entourage.

 

Tinseltown's self-proclaimed "King of the World" is entangled with accused kleptocrats in Malaysia. The activist celebrity ostentatiously condemned the "politics of greed" at the Oscars in February. Yet, he's been partying it up with some of Kuala Lumpur's most corruption-stained elites.

 

Recent investigations by The Hollywood Reporter tied donations received by DiCaprio's charitable foundation to a shady Malaysian government "sovereign wealth fund" known as 1MDB. Instead of being spent on economic development as intended, an estimated $3 billion from the public investment fund allegedly disappeared into offshore companies, shell accounts and the pockets of the prime minister's cronies. The money-laundering scheme that spans three continents is the subject of a sprawling Justice Department probe and asset recovery case.

 

DiCaprio is not accused of any wrongdoing, but two key players named by DOJ are more than just passing acquaintances of his. They are Riza Aziz, the stepson of scandal center Malaysian prime minister Najib Razak, and Malaysian billionaire businessman Jho Low, who financed Aziz's film company, Red Granite, which underwrote DiCaprio's 2013 flick, "The Wolf of Wall Street," with $100 million.

Clinton Bundler Partnered With Malaysian Fund Under Investigation for Embezzling $3 Billion

 

A top bundler for President Barack Obama and now Hillary Clinton previously entered into a joint venture agreement with a Malaysian sovereign wealth fund accused of embezzling more than $3 billion dollars internationally.

The troubles surrounding 1Malaysian Development Berhad (1MDB), a state investment fund created by the Malaysian government to promote economic development in the country, has garnered increased headlines in recent days after it was discoveredthat actor Leonardo DiCaprio’s foundation is linked to the foreign entity.

 

DiCaprio was slated to host a $33,400-a-head fundraiser at his Hollywood Hills home Tuesday for Hillary Clinton but backed out last minute, citing a scheduling conflict. The fundraiser was moved to the home of Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel. The Clinton campaign denied the change of venue had anything to do with DiCaprio’s foundation being tied to the embezzlement scheme, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
