Buying legislators is not a new thing - lobbist's do a similar thing by offering favors and donations for passed or supported legislation. 

Bill and Hillary Clinton, former Republican congressman Robert Livingston and Democratic senator Richard Gephardt, along with Republican strategist and former White House senior advisor Karl Rove and former Speaker of the House of Representatives Dennis Hastert, have all pocketed millions from Gulen’s political action groups. The Clinton's received a donation to both the Clinton Foundation and the Hillary Clinton campaign for an oil recovery deal with Gulen and Erdogon (when Gulen and Erdogon were still friends) while Hillary was Secretary of State in the amount of $1 million to each.
​

Other Washington politicos who have been on the take from Gulen include U.S. senators Mark Warner, Richard Lugar, Frank Lautenberg, Jeff Bingaman, Roger Wicker, Kay Hagen, and Kristen Gillibrand and over 49 members of the House of Representatives, most notably Jean Schmidt (R-OH), Roy Blunt (R-MO), Dan Burton(R-IN), Tom Lantos (D-CA), Bob Livingston (R-LA), Stephen Solarz(D-NY), and Matthew Cartwright (D-PA), who represents the Seventeenth Congressional district (a vast swath of Northeastern Pennsylvania, including Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, and Easton).

Topping the list of politicos who have squirreled away a fortune in cash from the Hocaefendi (or “supreme leader,” as Gulen is called by his followers) is Marc Grossman, the former U.S. ambassador to Turkey. Grossman appeared in federal court along with the CIA to endorse Fethullah Gulen’s application for permanent residency in the United States — an application that was opposed by the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI. The former ambassador reportedly receives a yearly stipend of $1.2 million from Ihlas Holding, a Gulen company.

Gulen received his permanent residency in the United States.

Fethullah Gulen's most recent Goon:  Bob Casey and his "Cash Cow"

Picture
2016 - by  Paul L. Williams, Ph.D.  - Money buys everything, including, it would seem, the allegiance of Senator Robert (“Bob”) Casey (D-PA) to militant Islam. Casey, a member of the National Security Working Group and the former chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee overseeing the Middle East, has received windfalls of cash from individuals and corporations affiliated with Fethullah Gulen.

Gulen, dubbed “the most dangerous Islamist on planet earth,” has amassed a fortune estimated to exceed $50 billion to bring about a New Islamic World Order. Much of the money, according to informed sources, comes from the heroin trade.

Casey has received regular infusions of cash for his political campaigns from the Turkish American Heritage Political Action Committee (Turkish PAC), a lobbyist group controlled by Gulen and his henchmen.

“The Guide to Gulen’s Activities in the United States” (produced “with volunteer effort of citizens who became concerned about the growing infl uence of a secretive foreign movement in our public education system”) reveals this sampling of contributions to Casey from known Gulenists:

  • Omer Alici of Ceren Delivery in Bethlehem — $4,000
  • Ugar Akyildiz of Bethlehem — $1,000
  • Metin Bor of the West Penn Cultural Center in Pittsburgh — $1,300
  • Suleyman Eris of the Lehigh Dialogue Center in Bethlehem — $2,350
  • Murat M. Guzel of Nimeks, Inc. in Bethlehem — $2,500
  • Remzlye Isikgov of the Brooklyn Amity School in Brooklyn, New York — $2,400
  • ​Sukru Kilic of Information Technology Services in Cherry Hill, New Jersey — $3,500• Furkan Kosar of the Turkish American Association in West Paterson, New Jersey — $700
  • Mahmut Muncusunluar of the Nile Foundation in Winter Park, Florida — $1,500
  • Yasemin Peker of the Nile Foundation of Orlando, Florida — $1,000
  • Ahmet Sarac of the Genesys Corporation in Saylorsburg, PA — $4,500

Chicago charter schools and Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan

Picture
2013 - One chain linked to Gulen, Concept Schools Inc., operates 30 charter schools across six Midwestern states. In 2004, Concept opened the Chicago Math and Science Academy. A recent article in the Sun-Times by Dan Mihalopoulos detailed how Concept opened two new charter schools rejected by the CPS by appealing to Illinois State Charter School Commission -- an agency created with the help of Gulen-connected Madigan. Between 2008 and 2012, Madigan, Ald. Joe Moore (49th Ward) and several other Illinois politicians took trips to Turkey paid for by Gulen's Chicago-based Niagara Foundation and unspecified Turkish non-governmental organizations.

In light of the recent scandals that ended state funding to the well-connected UNO charter school organization, the circumstances surrounding Concept deserve further investigation.

As it turns out, Gulen schools have already been under federal investigation for some time now.

When the FBI seized several boxes without explanation from a Gulen-linked charter school in Baton Rouge. In her follow-up Times-Picayune story, Diana Samuels linked to a June 2011 story in the New York Times that documented allegations of Gulen charter schools in Texas kicking back taxpayer funds to Gulen-related enterprises, funding overseas trips to Turkey for state legislators and giving construction business to Gulen-friendly contractors.

As a possible explanation for the box seizures, she also referenced a March 2011 Philadelphia Inquirer story noting the FBI and Department of Labor's investigations into whether Gulen charter schools were applying for H1B worker visas to replace qualified teachers already living in the country with under-qualified Turkish men with poor English skills and higher salaries. Even back in November 2010, Columbus' NBC4 investigated viewer allegations that Concept was specifically hiring teachers from Turkey for its Ohio schools.

Of course, this raises questions about what the purpose of this seemingly closed-loop of Gulen schools is and why it needs perpetual expansion and fundraising. Supporters might argue it's simply a reflection of the religious leader's genuine desire to expand educational opportunities across the world. MORE

The FBI has investigated Gulen Charter schools in Florida, Ohio, Illinois and Texas with Texas and Ohio having the most schools. My personal opinion is the CIA has stopped the FBI from bringing any formal charges against Gulen and his numerous enterprises since the CIA has admitted they wish to replace the leadership of Turkey with Fethullah Gulen seen by the CIA as a "friendly" operative since the 1980's. Once again the US putting themselves in the position of "choosing" the leadership of a country rather than help the people determine that by helping them achieve their own independence from these monster dictators.
