Paul hints at Clinton Foundation scandal (More on the way!)
The Hill ^ | 4/07/15 | Jonathan Easley

Posted on 04/08/2015 3:00:59 AM PDT by Libloather

Just minutes after officially announcing he’d be seeking the Republican nomination for president, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) went hard after Hillary Clinton, the frontrunner for the Democratic presidential nomination.

In an interview with Sean Hannity that was taped midday Tuesday but didn’t air until late Tuesday night, Paul told the Fox News Channel host that “hypocrisy” is the first word that comes to his mind when describing the former secretary of State.

“She wants to be a champion for women’s rights, and yet she takes money from countries that are some of the worst abusers,” Paul said.

The Kentucky Republican hinted strongly there would soon be a new controversy surrounding the Clinton Foundation, which he said would be revealed in the next few weeks.

“She was in charge of approving business deals as secretary of State … for anything that relates to our security,” Paul said. “There’s going to be something coming out in the next few weeks of companies she approved deals for … [that gave] significant amounts, over $100 million, being given to her foundation.

Paul also criticized Clinton for the controversy over her use of a personal email account while secretary of State. He said the revelation that Clinton’s server had been wiped clean “sounds like destroying evidence to me.”

“I think it shows that the Clintons believe that they’re above the law,” Paul said. “That for the rest of us, the common people, we have to obey, but they get to do whatever they want.”

Paul had harsh words for Clinton’s husband, former President Bill Clinton, who he has in the past called a “sexual predator.”

“I still think that the left still hasn’t come to grips with the fact that workplace violence, taking advantage of a 22-year-old girl, the moral disapproval of that, the shunning for someone like that,” he said. “For him to still be accepted shows the bad side of our culture that that would be ok.”

Whether Paul is the eventual nominee or not it sure will be fun watching him and others throw bombs at Hill and Bill.
Course she does have a vagina, her only real reason for running.

Paul: “That for the rest of us, the common people, we have to obey..."

Since when does a sitting Senator have to obey the law?

Predicting another scandal concerning the Clintons is like predicting the sun will rise in the East.

I love the way Rand Paul came right out and said that something was coming out in the next two weeks. Can hardly wait.

How does Hitlery even have the stones to show her face in public much less think she’s going to run for President.

The silence from the Clinton camp is deafening.

Like practiced criminals, the opportunistic Clintons are lying in wait-—waiting for Republicans to overreach.

They then surface—recasting themselves as “ unfortunate put-upon victims” ......being pilloried by evil Republicans.

Much as I hate to admit it——the Clintons have always been saved BY THEIR ENEMIES.

Repubs need to be very very smart....they should leave the heavy lifting to others...attacks against the sleazy Clintons need to couched in artful terms.

Rand Paul hinted of a new controversy surrounding the Clinton Foundation to be revealed in the next few weeks. “She was in charge of approving business deals....for federal contracts that relate to US ntl security....she approved allocations of tax dollars that coincided w/ $100 million, being given to the Clinton foundation.

FACTS ON FILE After Hillary left State, State Dept officials issued a "special management alert"-----that it had "no idea" what happened to $6 billion used to pay its contractors.....it warned of “significant financial risk and a lack of internal control at State has led to billions of unaccounted dollars over the last six years....under Hillary's watch.

========================================

THIS JUST IN---Judge Gladys Kessler of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia ordered the State Department to produce passenger manifests from 47 overseas trips that Mrs. Clinton made as secretary of state. Citizens United requested the manifests last July through a Freedom of Information Act Request.

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.

It’s like any criminal with a history of crime. First they get away with stealing a candy bar. They progress to “borrowing” a bike Then when they take a car and excuses are made and they let off he hook because of who they are related. Eventually they become bolder: the crime becomes larger. When they finally are arrested the judge, because they have no record gives them probation or allows plea bargain. When they become adults their under age record is purged but they’ve still got years of practice and experience in the career of crime. As adults if they’re connected or their family has money the entire scenerio is repeated until finally they get consequences for their actions.

Indeed.

Republicans who voted "not guilty" on the perjury charge in the Senate's Impeachment Trial of William Jefferson Clinton:
