High Fashion, Expense for Hillary Travel
Las Vegas Review-Journal ^ | Laura Myers

Posted on 08/18/2014 2:52:20 PM PDT by nickcarraway

Hillary Rodham Clinton likes to travel in style.

She insists on staying in the “presidential suite” of luxury hotels that she chooses anywhere in the world, including Las Vegas.

She usually requires those who pay her six-figure fees for speeches to also provide a private jet for transportation — only a $39 million, 16-passenger Gulfstream G450 or larger will do.

And she doesn’t travel alone, relying on an entourage of a couple of “travel aides,” and a couple of advance staffers who check out her speech site in the days leading up to her appearance, much like a White House trip, according to her contract and supporting documents concerning her Oct. 13 speech at a University of Nevada, Las Vegas Foundation fundraiser. The documents were obtained by the Las Vegas Review-Journal through the state public records law.

CENTER OF ATTENTION

Clinton, a former first lady, U.S. senator from New York and U.S. secretary of state, is expected to run for president in 2016. Her lifestyles of the rich and famous ways and comments that she made about her wealth during a recent book tour have fueled criticism that she’s out of touch with average Americans.

The Democratic contender said she pays taxes, unlike some people who are “truly well off.” She also said she and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, were “dead broke” when they left the White House in 2001. In the past eight years alone, the couple has earned more than $100 million, much of it from speaking fees, according to Politico.

I’d say she pretty much got screwed on that “high fashion” clause.

Does anyone remember the toilet that the Chinese built for Hillary on one of her trips as first lady?

Clearly, the endless videos being run on broadcast TV....of a smiling speaker Hillary, greeting and embracing audiences ....are hurting her, causing her approval numbers to dive.

Now we know why she looks so sap-happy. She was raking in the bucks and getting perks worthy of a US president.

Did her audiences know Hillary was getting six figure fees, that they were footing the bills for her “presidential suites” in luxury hotels, her endless entourage, private planes, and other perks?

She usually demands the dummies stupid enough to pay her six-figure fees also provide a private jet — specifically, a $39 million, 16-passenger Gulfstream G450 jet, or larger.

She brings along an entourage of “travel aides,” and a couple of advance staffers who check out her speech site in the days leading up to her appearance (as if she was a president).

SOURCE all of this was verified according to her own contract demands, and supporting documents WRT her Oct. 13 speech at a Univ of Nevada, Las Vegas Foundation fundraiser. The documents were obtained by the Las Vegas Review-Journal through the state public records law.

HILL AND OBOBO "HUG IT OUT" AT ELITE MARTHA'S VINEYARD ENCLAVE: Hillary Clinton dissed Obama’s foreign policy
failures....comments seen as an attempt to create space from an unpopular White
House. The "hug-out" was to assure the aghast lefty vote sipping chilled Cristal
that her remarks weren’t meant as an attack on their beloved Black man.

"No big deal---you wanted to pepper spray terrorists, I wanted to water-bomb them w/ happy face balloons."

Wiping away a tear, Obama's former van driver,
Tommy Vietor said of the hug-out,
“They’re friends and human beings first,” he sobbed.

Vietor sat in on Situation Room briefings and had
National Security Clearance. Vietor now does "messaging" for a living.

Hillary hired Vietor to mastermind her rollicking pre-campaign book tour
(as the $14 million book deal went straight to the $2 bin).

Another crypto crack addict journalist and her editor slip into another dimension where Tiajuana shop rags pass for haute couture.
