   EXCLUSIVE: Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler   
   scrubbed mention of a meeting with former Secretary of State Hillary   
   Clinton and key details of a meeting with billionaire Democratic donor   
   George Soros from the public version of his calendar.   
      
   Gensler's public calendar showed that he only had a staff meeting on Aug.   
   7, 2021, while his private calendar lists a meeting with Clinton,   
   according to a Fox News Digital review. And on Aug. 20, 2021, his public   
   calendar lists a meeting with Soros but hid the meeting's agenda, which   
   his private calendar shows was to discuss a forthcoming Wall Street   
   Journal op-ed the business magnate was planning to write.   
      
   Gensler's private calendar revealing the discrepancies was obtained by the   
   watchdog group Energy Policy Advocates and shared with Fox News Digital.   
   The group was only able to obtain the internal records after filing a   
   Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the SEC.   
      
   In recent days, around the time Fox News Digital contacted the SEC, the   
   agency updated Gensler's public calendar to include his meeting with   
   Clinton in August 2021. As recently as Wednesday the public calendar   
   didn't include the meeting, and archived copies of the webpage from April   
   also list just a meeting with staff.   
      
   An SEC spokesperson first responded to an inquiry by saying the public   
   calendar listed the Clinton meeting. When sent a screen capture of the   
   calendar showing the Clinton meeting wasn't listed, the spokesperson   
   responded by saying that the agency updates calendars "from time to time"   
   when it discovers that something is missing or inaccurate.   
      
   Gensler, a former Goldman Sachs executive and Obama administration   
   official, was the chief financial officer for Clinton's presidential   
   campaign in 2016. The Senate confirmed him to lead the SEC in April 2021,   
   shortly after President Joe Biden selected him for the high-profile   
   position.   
      
   Archived copies of Gensler's public calendar also show the SEC hid   
   September 2021 meetings with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and   
   Washington, D.C.-based consultant Minyon Moore, a former White House   
   official. The public calendar has now been updated to show those meetings   
   as well.   
      
   Meanwhile, on Sept. 6, 2021 — about two weeks after the meeting between   
   Gensler and Soros — the Wall Street Journal published an op-ed written by   
   Soros. Gensler's private calendar, but not his public calendar, states the   
   purpose of the Aug. 20 meeting was "re: WSJ op-ed."   
      
   In the article, Soros blasted major asset manager BlackRock for launching   
   investment products for Chinese customers while applauding the company's   
   environmental policies. Soros eventually argued that Congress should pass   
   legislation to give the already powerful SEC more regulatory authority.
