New Book, ‘Clinton Cash,’ Questions Foreign Donations to Foundation
nytimes.com ^ | APRIL 19, 2015 | Amy Chozick

The book does not hit shelves until May 5, but already the Republican Rand Paul has called its findings “big news” that will “shock people” and make voters “question” the candidacy of Hillary Rodham Clinton.

“Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich,” by Peter Schweizer — a 186-page investigation of donations made to the Clinton Foundation by foreign entities — is proving the most anticipated and feared book of a presidential cycle still in its infancy.

The book, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times, asserts that foreign entities who made payments to the Clinton Foundation and to Mr. Clinton through high speaking fees received favors from Mrs. Clinton’s State Department in return.

“We will see a pattern of financial transactions involving the Clintons that occurred contemporaneous with favorable U.S. policy decisions benefiting those providing the funds,” Mr. Schweizer writes.

Ok, ler's see--everybody does it, we're all sexist for noticing, she's a Clinton, so everybody ignore...? I like the direct accusation of quid pro quo. Nice.

She is more slimy than Bill, without his “charm.” In many folks eyes he will always be a loveable cad. I don’t people will buy her brand of BS because she’s not really likeable.

I think they are both full of s*it.

This will go mostly unnoticed again just like all the other corruption so not sure why Paul thinks this will shocking unless yet again he;s trying to get headlines.

Wiping servers, deleting mail, Benghazi is enough for her to be facing charges and maybe prison time.

I imagine the NY Times only reports this because it dreams of a further left challenger to Hillary.

She’s evil, wicked, mean and nasty, and unlike 0bama, she has a head crammed full of bad ideas.

“the Republican Rand Paul has called its findings “big news””

Where the hell has Rand Paul been? Anyone even slightly paying attention knows all of this information on the Clintons.

It seems Comrade de Blasio is pondering a run.

I realize it’s Rand, at least it’s not Ron, and anything against the Shrew from Chappaqua suits me fine. If it saves just ONE child...

The dirty little secret here is the nature of the favorable treatment these foreign interests received.

It's bad enough if a foreign company made a huge donation to the Clinton Foundation and then got a major contract through the U.S. State Department in exchange. My prediction is that the worst part of this scandal is that the U.S. government was deploying U.S. intelligence assets and military personnel in these foreign countries as de facto mercenaries ... bought and paid for by donations to the Clinton Foundation.

I added that last point just in case anyone was wondering what those people were doing over there in Benghazi.

She has no ideas ... she just has a head full of very dated, unworkable, populist and unethical Liberal propaganda.

She never grew out of the 60’s and is frozen in THAT era... however, America has moved on and, and like all Liberals, SHE didn’t.

When B Clinton was president he was doing the same thing as Hillary.

Using the military to help dope dealers, renting out the CIA to the highest bidders for corporate spying, handing out/selling nuclear secrets, using the Oil for Food Program to manipulate the price of oil in a no loose futures market scam.

The Clintons are beyond corrupt.
