Politico reported on Saturday that Doug Smith, the Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary, who exchanged a series of emails with Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe about GreenTech Automotive, has landed a new job with MWW, a high powered Washington D.C. public relations firm headed up by a major donor to McAuliffe's gubernatorial campaign.

According to Politico, Smith "is joining MWW public affairs as Executive Vice President and General Manager of the Washington office." Acting DHS Secretary Rand Beers told Politico "Douglas has played a key role in leading DHS's efforts in working with the private sector and strengthening the collaboration between the department and all of its private stakeholders from aviation security to intellectual property and all points in between."

Virginia Public Access Project records show that MWW founder and CEO Michael W. Kempner has donated a total of $50,000 to the McAuliffe campaign this year. Kempner, who "serves as a member of the White House Council for Community Solutions, appointed by President Barack Obama," donated $10,000 to McAuliffe on June 24, $25,000 on October 16, and $15,000 on October 30.

Federal Election Commission records show that Kempner, who is also a contributor to the Huffington Post, has donated more than $280,000 to Democratic political candidates over the past several years, and more than $100,000 to Democratic joint fundraising committees. A Breitbart News review of FEC records indicates that Kempner's donations to Republicans total a mere $2,250. He donated $1,000 to the Romney campaign in 2011 and 2012, $250 to the McCain campaign in 2008, and $1,000 to a John Kasich political action committee in 1999.

Smith has been heavily criticized by Republicans for playing an inappropriate role as McAuliffe's advocate within the Department of Homeland Security. McAuliffe's company, GreenTech Automotive, which he served as chairman from 2010 to 2012 and chairman emeritus since, is currently under investigation by the Inspector General's Office of the DHS for inappropriate influence in the granting of temporary green cards and permanent visas within the DHS's EB-5 foreign investors program.

Smith's emails to USCIS Director Alejandro Mayorkas, a top DHS official, apparently played a role in setting up a personal meeting between McAuliffe and Mayorkas in 2011 to discuss a DHS ruling that was unfavorable to GreenTech, which Mayorkas later reversed.

Yes, as McCowliffe himself knows, favors have to be paid off with appointments. More of this to come as he positions people for 2016.

But McTool's business accumen..... and Ken said 'trans-vaginal'.... blah blah blah blah blah.

Demoncat zombies cannot be de-programmed. Luckily there are promising clinical trials for a concentrated-bleach and other special ingredients as an adjuvant for early 'carbon re-capture' for the zomboids. A signficant proportion of Fairfuck County qualifies for these free clinical trials and will receive O'Bummer Care reward points.

Seriously. Was it the lead-based paint exposure or did you fall out of a back of a flatbed as a child?

Clever you think you are??? Yes, CVS-ly!!!

Are you not at all concerned that McTool (I assume you are voting for him) is a felon-in-waiting for his 'outstanding business accumen' ???

I like my lead just fine for certain applications. Were/are you a red-diaper doper baby or just a regular zomboid?
