The Clinton-Kaine Ticket Is Running To Keep Things Just The Way They Are, And That’s The Problem.

Hillary Clinton’s Secret Goldman Sachs Speeches Have Brought In $675,000

In 2013, Clinton Was Paid A Total Of $675,000 For Three Speeches To Goldman Sachs.“ According to records, Hillary Clinton accepted speaking fees from Goldman Sachs for three engagements between June and October of 2013 totaling $675,000.” (David Weisberg, “Hillary Clinton’s Artful Smear: Her Goldman Sachs Speaker Fees Matter, Even If She Doesn’t Understand Why,” Salon, 2/9/16)

Clinton’s Goldman Sachs Speaking Fees Are “The Lingering Flashpoint,” And “Something She Has Wrestled With Each Time It Comes Up.” “The lingering flashpoint is the fact that Clinton was paid $675,000 in speaking fees by investment firm Goldman Sachs for three speeches, something she’s wrestled with each time it’s come up.” (David Lightman, “Wall Street Cash, Goldman Speaking Fees Hang Over Clinton,” The Kansas City Star, 2/5/16)

Clinton Collected At Least $1.8 Million For At Least 8 Speeches To Big Banks Including Goldman Sachs. “The two also reported at least $7.7 million for at least 39 speeches to big banks, including Goldman Sachs and UBS, with Hillary Clinton, the Democratic 2016 front-runner, collecting at least $1.8 million for at least eight speeches to big banks.” (Robert Yoon, Clintons Earned $153M From Speeches Over 14 Years, Analysis Shows,” CNN, 2/5/16)

At A New Hampshire Town Hall Forum, Clinton Answered A Question Regarding Her “Decision To Accept $675,000 In Speaking Fees From Goldman Sachs” By Saying “That’s What They Offered.” “’That’s what they offered,’ Clinton said in response to Cooper's question about her decision to accept $675,000 in speaking fees from Goldman Sachs in the period between serving as secretary of state and her decision to formally enter the 2016 presidential race.”(Chris Cillizza, “Hillary Clinton Is Going To Really Regret Saying These 4 Words About Goldman Sachs,” The Washington Post’s The Fix, 2/4/16)

When Answering The Question, Clinton Was “Both Seemingly Caught By Surprise And Annoyed By The Question All At Once.” “Clinton is both seemingly caught by surprise and annoyed by the question all at once. Neither of those is a good reaction to what Cooper is asking. Both together make for a uniquely bad response.”(Chris Cillizza, “Hillary Clinton Is Going To Really Regret Saying These 4 Words About Goldman Sachs,” The Washington Post’s The Fix, 2/4/16)

Clinton Has Refused To Release Her Speech Transcripts

Clinton Has Dodged On Releasing Her Paid Speech Transcripts. “Asked whether she would be willing to release the transcripts from her paid speeches to Goldman Sachs and other organizations, Hillary Clinton dodged.” (Nick Gass, “Clinton Dodges On Releasing Paid Speech Transcripts,” Politico, 2/4/16)

According To People Who Heard Some Of Clinton’s Paid Speeches,Clinton “Spoke Sympathetically About The Financial Industry…” “In a discussion with Goldman Sachs Group Inc. executives and some of its asset-management clients in October 2013, she spoke sympathetically about the financial industry, according to an attendee.” (Anupreeta Das And James Grimaldi, “Hillary Clinton’s Wall Street Talks Were Highly Paid, Friendly,” The Wall Street Journal, 2/11/16)

Another Attendee Said “It Sounded Like A Rah-Rah Speech … She Sounded More Like A Goldman Sachs Managing Director.” “‘It was pretty glowing about us,’ said another attendee. ‘It’s so far from what she sounds like as a candidate now. It was like a rah-rah speech. She sounded more like a Goldman Sachs managing director.’” (Sean Illing, “Hillary Clinton Can’t Run Away From Her Goldman Sachs Problem: Report Suggests Her Paid Speeches Were Decidedly Pro-Wall Street,” Salon, 2/9/16)

“Hillary’s with us.”

It could be a quote from Lenin, Marx, Trotsky, Mao, or any of that crowd.

Don’t even need that. Last night’s performance solidified the fact that nobody is paying her for her speaking skills or story telling. A crackhead would be more informative and cheaper.

I don’t really understand how all this works. Can someone explain to me why anyone would pay that kind of money to hear Hillary talk?

(Excerpt) Read more at judicialwatch.org ... On September 15, in a telephone call with then-Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohamed Amr, then-Secy of State Clinton emphatically portrayed the “stupid, very offensive film” as the root cause of the Benghazi violence. Clinton told Amr, “I have repeatedly, as has the President and other officials in our government, deplored not only the content of this stupid, very offensive film… But we have to exercise more self-discipline… otherwise we’ll be in a vicious downward circle against everyone who has ever felt offended, particularly on the internet….”

After referring to Benghazi, Secy Clinton’s telephone call with then-Egyptian Foreign Minister Mohamed Amr also contained a curious reference to what the former secretary referred to as a “very successful investment visit led by my deputy Tom Nides, and on the very day they left, this series of incidents began to unfold.”

According to the Washington Post, Nides, who was deputy secretary for management and resources at the State Department, was at the same time responsible for “communications with donors” to the Clinton Foundation. Nides was also involved in the scandal involving Clinton’s efforts to provide special access to State Department officials for hedge fund clients of her son-in-law, Marc Mezvinsky.

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

Then-Sen Hillary made a special effort to make friends w/ Wall Street.

Then-US Sens Clinton and Corzine.

Corzine was fresh out of Goldman Sachs executive suite. Corzine came from Wall Street to Capitol Hill. Then back to Wall Street to head a company that hired Bill Clinton @ $50,000 per month, AND also misplaced $1.3 Billion investor dollars.

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

Goldman Sachs top echelon are nuts for Hillary. The G/S biggies "invested" in Hillary's SIL's hedge fund. SIL's cockamamie investing turned the fund into an economic disaster according to the WSJ. It's been shuttered due to the huge losses in Greek debt investments.

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

THE CLINTON CORZINE CONNECTION: The NY Post reported Dec 2011 that Teneo was advising MF Global, the doomed international brokerage firm headed by former New Jersey Gov. Jon Corzine (and ex-US Senator). The firm paid Teneo an eye-popping $125,000 a month as it was imploding and losing millions for its investors. Bill Clinton was also pocketing at MF Global--- an astounding $50,000 per month.

EXHIBIT ONE Corzine was fresh out of Goldman Sachs executive suite, buying his NJ Senate seat office for $65 million; then buying the NJ governorship. Out of office, he ran a hedge fund where $1.5 B went missing....its advisor Teneo was connected to both Bill Clinton and then-Secy of State Hillary's top aide Huma Abedin.

EXHIBIT TWO When Chelsea Clinton's husband started a hedge fund, he gained access to investors who had ties to the Clintons and to Goldman Sachs. Back in 2011, Mezvinsky, now 37, and two former Goldman Sachs'ers — Bennett Grau and Mark Mallon — began raising money for Mezvinsky's Eaglevale Partners LP hedge fund.

Some of Mezvinsky's "investors" included Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein. Blankfein, a slavish Democrat supporter, said he had "always been a fan of Hillary Clinton."

The WSJ reported extensively on the hedge fund's underperformance since its inception and Mezvinsky's mediocre investing and strategizing.

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

THIS JUST IN---Bloomberg is reporting G/S's CEO Lloyd Blankfien is a newly-minted billionaire---and also has his own Foundation.

Mmmmmmmm....the sound of wire-transfers is almost palpable.

The IRS says the biggest tax evasion fraud is one Foundation writing a check to another Foundation. The check receiver takes a cut, then wire-transfers the bulk to an offshore bank for the check-writer's use later ----- the way these "humanitarians" skim off-tax free dollars for themselves.

She doesn't really give speeches. It's an excuse for money laundering. Thats why people keep asking her for copies of the speeches.
