Hillary Clinton Admits To Being a Money Launderer By Donating Her Speaking Fees to Her Clinton

FULL TITLE: Hillary Clinton Admits To Being a Money Launderer By Donating Her Speaking Fees to Her Clinton Foundation

When I first read this ABC headline, Hillary Clinton Says She’s Donated All University Speaking Fees, I assumed the money was donated to an entity like the Red Cross or Catholic Charities, or other organization. But, after reading the article it turns out that Hillary is putting the money back into her own foundation.

ABC News reports Hillary Clinton continued to justify her high-dollar speaking fees on Friday, telling ABC News’ Ann Compton that all of the money she’s made from colleges over the past year and a half has been donated to her family’s foundation.

“All of the fees have been donated to the Clinton Foundation for it to continue its life-changing and life-saving work. So it goes from a foundation at a university to another foundation,” Clinton said when asked about the criticism she and her husband have faced recently for their wealth. Hillary Clinton reportedly makes roughly $200,000 for each speaking engagement. And recent reports show that she has made much more from some of the country’s top universities.

Donating the money to her own foundation is a slick way of paying herself. And that’s fine, but it’s dishonest for her to say she donating the money as if she’s giving it to some other charity she has nothing to do with.

Whenever I hear a famous person talking about donating to charity, I always look for the “foundation” that was founded by said famous person and is often even named after them.

It’s mostly money-laundering, whether it be a rich Leftist, a Hollywood script reader, or a pro athlete.

Has someone actually checked out this foundation? For donations to be tax exempt, it has to follow SOME rules. It isn’t supposed to be a hermetically sealed black box. If her foundation is fraudulent that needs to be addressed on its own level. Yes I cam imagine the temptation to cheat is immense.

As usual Hillary is giving herself the money. I want to know why this woman is not in prison?

Money laundering. She sure is. She is money laundering to herself and her family and friends via the foundation.

I’ve looked at some of their docs:

http://www.clintonfoundation.org/about/annual-financial-reports

But there’s no way of knowing how truthful they are. And I’m sure there’s “zero” chance the IRS is looking at them. It would be fun for President Cruz to have IRS Commissioner Trey Gowdy audit the living sh!t out of them in 2017 but that’s probably a dream....

She's taking the money legally - as a service FEE for administrative tasks to manage the foundation!

I see this as just one more sign of a fading empire, mainly because there is absolutely nothing productive about what’s going on with these giant foundations. At least the “robber barons” of yesteryear had thousands of miles of railroad and millions of tons of steel and iron production capacity to show for their efforts.

She lied when she said she pays the same tax as ordinary Americans.

Wouldn’t her donation be tax deductible?

No doubt about it...that is money laundering.

Now let's see who's getting paid as a leader of her charity??

They won't be able to do that because on January 21st 2017 the IRS would be abolished by Executive Order, which is one of the few things an EO should be used for.
