NEW YORK, USA -- On the heels of revelations earlier this year about questionable Clinton family activities in Haiti, the Wall Street Journal revealed last week that presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her husband accepted cash from Swiss bank UBS, after she intervened to help it out with the IRS, thus potentially undermining the Justice Departments so-called Swiss Bank Program against offshore banks that assist US tax cheats.
Then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton reportedly assisted UBS in scaling down the level of cooperation with the Justice Department regarding accounts of American tax cheats, to release only eight percent of the information demanded by the United States.
UBS later paid Bill Clinton $1.5 million for speaking engagements and also made donations to the Clinton Foundation.
Whether the Clinton Foundation received donations from UBS as the direct or indirect result is immaterial. What is relevant is that the State Department interfered with an important law enforcement operation, and by doing do, diluted its effectiveness. Clinton ruined the effectiveness of the UBS matter; all the other tax cheats escaped unscathed, former money launderer turned compliance expert Kenneth Rijock pointed out.
The United States has had to put up with non-cooperation, and dilatory tactics, from Swiss banks; do we really need an official of an agency of our own government assisting them? Rijock asked. . .

It just never stops with the Clintons.
The buck stops in their account(s)......................
Wanna bet that the info she released was only on Republican tax cheats? If there were any Democrats in the group, they would be anti-Hitlery Democrats.
But her fanbois won’t care.
That is why all of the talk about Biden running is popping up.
Hill wont go down with out a fight (yes, I know what I said there) but she is looking like damaged goods at this point, and may be too risky to back.
Not that Biden is a step-up.
Biden will fight for that three letter word, J-O-B-S.... /Sarc
Lucy!!! You got some ‘splainin to do!!
The stuff certain people will do for $100 mil...
You trail $100 mil through Westchester County, there’s no telling what you’ll catch.
Arrest the b*tch.
She just can’t stop panhandling for profit.
What HASN’T she done that’s illegal? The way she’s going, I wouldn’t be surprised if somewhere there’s a video of her participating in an abortion & hacking up the baby parts. Hey, if there’s money to be made, she’s “all in”.
Mrs. Clinton has precious little of the afore mentioned which means she is the least likely person who could or should run for POTUS.
Aren't there guide lines as to who may run for the top job? It boggles the mind that this woman is even considered; that there are people/Americans who don't think integrity is a criteria for POTUS.
WDDIM?
That is truly the astonishing thing about her - the sheer number of different illegal activities she's involved herself in. It doesn't seem possible that one person could do so MUCH evil, not just in scale, but also variety.
And get away with it.
It's like one of those ultra-violent movies by Quentin Tarantino, where you keep saying to yourself "this could never happen, because someone would call the cops and that would be the end of it."
I guess real life is more like a Quentin Tarantino movie, at least where the Washington Power Elite is concerned.
I bet Obama is getting away with stuff we won't find out about for twenty years, or until nuclear blasts take out a couple of large cities.
I have suspected that she is running partly because winning would keep the lid on her prosecution for multiple crimes. Not that she doesn’t crave power...but she has to have considered that she could end up in jail should someone like Ted Cruz (and not a Bush) win.
People have offshore bank accounts because tax rates over here are ridiculous. If I ever won a big lotto pot, I might consider moving overseas and giving up my citizenship, because with this current communist squatting in the white hut, I’m not proud of my country.
Hillary has been caught on film committing a felony and gotten away with it. Now, she has done far worse than Petraeus and gotten away with it.
