Cheney's Son-In-Law "Major Stumbling Block" For Investigations Of Homeland Security Dept.

Think Progress | February 6, 2007 07:33 PM

The Department of Homeland Security refuses to cooperate on oversight activities, according to testimony offered today by GAO Comptroller General David Walker and Homeland Security Inspector General Richard Skinner. The investigators highlighted the role of Philip Perry -- Chief Counsel of the Department of Homeland Security and Vice President Cheney's son-in-law -- as the major stumbling block in their investigations.

Walker said the DHS strategy in dealing with investigations is to "delay, delay, delay."

19. Bush brother Marvin tied up in Homeland Security

Bush Family Dipping Into Security Pie
by Margie Burns

The full effects of the 2001 so-called ``USA Patriot Act'' have not yet been felt, fortunately. But one of its first effects has been to benefit the president's brother, Marvin.

Marvin P. Bush, one of George W. Bush's three younger brothers, is co-founder and partner in Winston Partners, a private investment firm in Alexandria, Va. Winston Partners in turn is part of a larger venture capital entity called the Chatterjee Group, headed by venture capitalist Purnendu Chatterjee. (Venture capital firms provide money to start-up businesses and other companies, usually in return for equity and some managerial say in the company.)

Through this and other business relationships, this Bush sibling is positioned to do very well in high-tech activities as a result of provisions of the Patriot Act.

Securities and Exchange Commission filings show that the Chatterjee Group consists of Winston Partners, L.P.; and a half-dozen other entities with addresses in the Cayman Islands, the Netherlands Antilles, the Isle of Man and Delaware.

Bush's partner is Scott Andrews, with whom he went to school. Winston Partners has two branches, hedge funds and private equity funds, engaged in a variety of investments, including global ``outsourcing'' and offshore information technology....

There is alot more there with Marvin's ties to WTC security and his babysitter's mysterious death.
