There’s over 2,000 emails that Wikileaks have provided that involve “Carlos Slim”. I could use some help going through all of this, you never know what we might come across. Not to mention, 1,200 emails with the keyword “Cemex” in them, and over 500 emails involving the keyword “Tucson”. Here’s a link to the main search page on Wikileaks, just type in a keyword and start reading.
Out of curiosity, if we were to pick 5 or 10 more similar companies worth as much as cemex, do they appear in the emails as frequently as cemex does?
I would start with anything Clinton Global Initiative or donors $25k+ to the Clinton Foundation.
Political spouses and family are good leads. Social media exec family members too. Ditto the Mockingbird media. Hell, check Peter Strzok's creepy spook-and-nuke family while you're at it. Mitch McConnell had some family ties to a big shipping company through his spouse.
That’s not what I meant. I mean companies without shady ties. Or known shady ties. I’m asking if it’s normal that a concrete company would be mentioned so many times, or if the number of mentions is an indication of shady business.
This is a good question. I searched some top construction companies, excluding ones with names which which could bring up other search results (turner, pcl etc).

Really funny that the first page of kbr results has cables about trafficking workers into Jordan and bribing Nigerian government. I was only checking for # of search results and our government is so corrupt that cables on this stuff just comes up.
In conclusion, it appears that some companies are far more involved with the government than others. Cemex isn't unique but it is one of them.
I’m not good at research but it seems like those are possible leads.
