UPDATE: It looks like Hillary's foreign donations headaches are just beginning. Via the New York Times, oh my:

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...“Clinton Cash” is potentially more unsettling, both because of its focused reporting and because major news organizations including The Times, The Washington Post and Fox News have exclusive agreements with the author to pursue the story lines found in the book…[Schweitzer] writes mainly in the voice of a neutral journalist and meticulously documents his sources, including tax records and government documents, while leaving little doubt about his view of the Clintons.

-- Original Post --

A new thread emerged over the weekend pertaining to the controversy over the Clinton Foundation's ongoing acceptance of foreign donations throughout Hillary's time at State and during her presidential run. We already know that the organization took large sums of money from foreign governments that were lobbying the US government, and that many of those contributions were not vetted by the Obama administration. Allegations of quid pro quos have surfaced, as have accusations of hypocrisy on women's rights. And now there's this, via Newsweek:

Enemies of Hillary Clinton waiting to discredit her bid for the White House are likely to seize on news that one of the biggest benefactors to the Clinton Foundation has been trading with Iran and may be in breach of US sanctions imposed on the country. (snip)

Pay for play has long been a hallmark of the Clintons.

I WISH that were true, but it was well publicized that Obama had a meeting, inside the White House, with Muslim Brotherhood contacts. I wondered if that is what ISIS meant when they claimed they would be ‘in the White House’ soon. This country just wants it freebies and they don’t care from where they come. They just aren’t aware that the Muslim Brotherhood will want payback for the ‘freebies’.

Thanks, now could you pass the eye bleach?

These revelations explain deBlasio’s recent inexplicable idea that he could get the Democratic nomination. deBlasio is a canned ham that magically talks and moves.

Does no one remember the infamous Lincoln Bedroom rentals?

Every time I see that picture I wonder if the White House is missing some bathtub curtains?

Pay to play - - the nice term for bribery ...

Hillary sold out the US ... think racketeering, payola, graft corruption... the ‘third way’ as defined by Clintons...

I once commented to a lib family member who was touting the credentials of our current President, specifically his Harvard Law degree...

“Well, Harvard is a great school. In fact most people don’t know that in addition to their undergraduate and Law graduates who have been president, they actually sent one MBA to the white house...”

After the expected quizzical look I continued...

“George W. Bush”

But I couldn’t contain myself and asked the necessary follow up.

“So which is it... does an advanced degree from Harvard make one unquestionably brilliant, or are we allowed to look deeper than the paper on the wall?”

I wasn’t invited back for several months... no loss.

The Clintons have gotten away with accepting bribes for decades.

Is this what Rand Paul was referring to last week when he predicted a BIG scandal with the Clinton Foundation and money????

FYI

[RayChuang88]

And that's why finding out Hillary Clinton's contributors to the foundation is important. If we find out that people with direct ties (or even members) of the Muslim Brotherhood were contributing to the Clinton Foundation, that will NOT sit well with the American electorate.

**Hillary! will be damaged goods some day**

Sooner rather than later.

I think about how happy the Secret Service agents look to have this assignment.

I don’t blame Hillary for being smug. She has never been held to account for anything in the past .
