More on the relationship between Hillary Clinton and Henry Kissinger:
The most direct link between Kissinger and Clinton is Robert Hormats, a former vice-chairman of Goldman Sachs who served as under-secretary of state for economic growth, energy and the environment from 2009 to 2013, while Clinton headed the Department of State. Hormats is currently vice-chairman of Kissinger Associates, the consulting firm founded by Kissinger.

The Wall Street ties of two top aides to Hillary Clinton at the State Department are raising concerns among progressives about the composition of a future Clinton White House.
The former aides, Tom Nides and Robert Hormats, have shuttled between government and Wall Street for years. Nides, who is frequently described as a Clinton confidant, is a longtime Morgan Stanley executive who served as deputy secretary of state for management and resources from 2011 to 2013 before returning to Morgan Stanley. Nides is also the former chairman of the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (Sifma), the main lobbying group for Wall Street in Washington DC.
Hormats, a former vice-chairman of Goldman Sachs, served as under secretary of state for economic growth, energy and the environment from 2009 to 2013. He is currently vice-chairman of Kissinger Associates, the consulting firm founded by the former secretary of state Henry Kissinger.
“Hillary Clinton reviews Henry Kissinger’s ‘World Order’”
Kissinger is a friend, and I relied on his counsel when I served as secretary of state. He checked in with me regularly, sharing astute observations about foreign leaders and sending me written reports on his travels. Though we have often seen the world and some of our challenges quite differently, and advocated different responses now and in the past, what comes through clearly in this new book is a conviction that we, and President Obama, share: a belief in the indispensability of continued American leadership in service of a just and liberal order.
Nice of her to remember to mention that Obama was slightly involved in her and Henry’s plans for their “World Order.”
