Chelsea Clinton ‘Frustrated’ by Lies About the Clinton Foundation
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 4/18/2017 | Madeleine Weist

Posted on 04/19/2017 10:52:23 AM PDT by simpson96

Chelsea Clinton opened up about her thoughts on the Clinton Foundation during an interview with Variety magazine for the "Power of Women: New York" issue published Tuesday.

Chelsea, daughter of former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, gave an interview with Ramin Setoodeh in an attempt to show "how she’s making her voice heard in 2017."

Setoodeh asked Clinton what she thought her responsibilities were, "given the current political climate."

"I think it’s a question all of us should be asking ourselves every day. I think being a citizen isn’t just what happens when there’s an election," Chelsea responded. "For me, I’m deeply committed to the work of the foundation. I’m committed to my teaching at Columbia."

"I’m committed to raising my voice in opposition to and affirmation of when I think it’s important to do so," she added.

The former first daughter also spoke about the Clinton Foundation, saying, "At its most distilled level, we try to make a positive, impactful, empowering difference in whatever ways we can."

Chelsea then began clearing up the controversy that surrounded the foundation during the 2016 presidential election.

"The strangest part has been the cognitive dissonance that seems to exist between the perception around the foundation for people who don’t know our work, and the actual work," Chelsea told Setoodeh.(snip)

The lies were absolutely frustrating because the facts didn’t seem sufficient to put them to rest. I think that was so odd about the whole experience — either the truth was insufficient or people just didn’t care," she said.

Chelsea responded. "For me, I’m deeply committed to the work of the foundation. I’m committed to my teaching at Columbia."

Chelsea teaching at Columbia? What next, commanding a shuttle mission to Mars - she's sooo smart and talented like her mom.

Chelsea, your spewing this cr9p won’t make the clinton regime family crime foundation for pay and play a good thing.

How many people have died under your mom and stepfathers watch? Thousands counting Libya.

Yeah. She's running. Watch and see if she does not get a Congresional Seat in '18. Then - just like Obama - she catapults into the White House race in 2020.

At the end of the interview Chelsea claimed she liked action movies, commenting on the plot of the recently released movie Logan with a feminist tone.

Anything to get the attention off of the bogus Clinton Crime Family Foundation.

It’s what happens when you put a whole basketful of deplorable lies thru the mind and mouth of a Clinton...distilled BS!

The best way for her to clear the air I think would be to sit down in front of a grand jury and take all the time she wants to clear the air about the activities of the Clinton Foundation. Under oath.

Maybe she means when all information about it is removed and all that’s left is what they claim about it.
