The book, "Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich," could nevertheless mark the second major political headache for Clinton's budding campaign. Weeks before she announced her candidacy, reports surfaced that she exclusively used a personal email account, and server, while secretary of state. Under pressure, Clinton held a press conference to explain her actions, but transparency questions continue to loom over her bid after she announced it a week ago.
Critics have long questioned, as well, the family foundation's history of foreign donations and whether donors got any benefits in return. Republicans are eagerly anticipating the release of the book.
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., himself a 2016 White House candidate, claimed earlier this month that "big news" is coming on the foundation.
"I think there are things that went on at the Clinton Foundation that are going to shock people," he said, in response to a question from Fox News in New Hampshire. "And I think they're going to make people question whether or not she ought to run for president."
According to the Times, he and other members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee were briefed on the book's contents.

I’m not interested in bush and will never vote for the amnesty freak.
I hope someone takes her down soon. She needs to be put away ASAP. Once she starts sliding, she will start talking. BO needs to get rid of her. Nobody with a brain should want her around. She is a train Wreck!
Foreign entities buying our USA politicians is a huge issue that needs corrected.
Global corporations owned by the Russians, Chinese and Japanese, Mexico, Americans etc. should have no right to lobby our Congress.
When these international companies sell ownership and employ the world and send profits off shore they should have no right to influence or mold our government policies for their benefit. They are not American companies nor citizens.
Nice logo!
I feel certain that Bill and Hillary will have a transparent public audit of their foundation in order to squelch this ugly rumor!
We need Nancy Pelosi to give Hillary some lessons in transparency.
The Clintons probably had/have a deal with BO that he can have a portion of the cash that comes in from these countries and he won’t tell on them. I put nothing past these corrupt creeps.
High criminals get rich.
Depends on what the definition of ‘favors’ is.
Nothing will happen except Schweizer will make a lot of money.

There seems to be a solid connection between:
(1) donors to the Clinton Foundation,
(2) companies receiving contracts from foreign countries, and,
(3) Clinton Foundation donors receiving favorable treatment from the State Dept.
<><> Sixty companies contributed $26 million to the Clinton Foundation.
<><> Forty four of those companies also contributed to a $3.2 billion dollar fund established at the Clinton Global Initiative (a wing of the foundation).
<><> At least 25 companies made contributions to fifteen private/public partnerships set up by ex-Pres Clinton;
And who administered all of them?.......the State Department w/ Hillary at the helm.
===========================================
Congress needs to launch multiple investigations into Hillary’s State Dept tenure including that of her confidantes:
<><> expense accounts,
<><> use of federal credit cards,
<><> their participation in the State Dept's disbursement of funds to "private contractors;"
<><>her possible collusion with the Clinton Foundation--using classified info as an instrument for fund-raising.
Hillary's official calendar, and her contact with foreign leaders. will tell the tale of donations to the foundation....and the Clintons profiteering off secret intel.
=================================================
The Buckraking Clintons sucking up foreign donations is morally reprehensible----but the real crimes are what exactly they are doing with the corporate/foreign monies once its in their Foundation's tax-exempt coffers.
It's becoming clearer why Bill Clinton used a shocking 21 phone nos and email addresses----because L/E knows multiple phone no's and emails is an indication of possible money-laundering and tax evasion.

NYP EXCERPT: Hillary Rodham Clinton used her clout as secretary of state to do favors for foreign donors who gave millions to her family foundation — and who paid millions more to her husband, Bill, in speaking fees, a new book charges.
Records show that of the $105 million the former president raked in from speeches over 12 years, about half came during his wife’s four-year tenure at the State Department.
The claims in “Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich” come just a week after she launched her presidential campaign.
