"Mistake": Clinton Foundation Admits Failing to Disclose $26 Million in Payments
Townhall.com ^ | 5/22/2015 | Katie Pavlich

After weeks of officials trying to explain why the Clinton Foundation is refiling it's taxes after "mistakes were made," new information published by the Washington Post shows at least $26 million was not disclosed properly. Where is the money from? More speeches of course.

The Clinton Foundation reported Thursday that it has received as much as $26.4 million in previously undisclosed payments from major corporations, universities, foreign sources and other groups.

The disclosure came as the foundation faced questions over whether it fully complied with a 2008 ethics agreement to reveal its donors and whether any of its funding sources present conflicts of interest for Hillary Rodham Clinton as she begins her presidential campaign.

The money was paid as fees for speeches by Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton. Foundation officials said the funds were tallied internally as “revenue” rather than donations, which is why they had not been included in the public listings of its contributors published as part of the 2008 agreement.

Oops. Where the money came from is as shady as ever, with a Nigerian newspaper paying Bill Clinton $500,000 for a speech.

Not only do we see a pattern of favorable moves by the State Department toward people and governments that donated to the Clinton Foundation during Hillary Clinton's time as secretary, we now see a pattern of non-disclosure and "mistakes" as well. This pattern begs the question: What else have the Clinton's failed to disclose? And if the media doesn't find the non-disclosure first, will the Clinton Foundation ever voluntarily reveal the issue? After all, the Clinton Foundation has raised $2 billion over the past 15 years, that's a lot of cash to sift through.

For cryin’ out loud. What’s a couple of decimal points between friends and anyway it was a long time ago so what difference does it make now. Lucky for us she “Ain’t now ways tahrred.”. Oddly enough, there’s still beaucoup clowns that’ll vote for her. Even if they have to write it in. Besides, by the time anyone does an in depth look, the Nov. ‘16 (s)elections will be long over.

Why don't IRS come and do some "Civil Forfeiture" in this case?
They attack mom&pop stores but really big players are immune.

It’s not like anyone will ever be punished over this garbage. Now, if it were you or I, that would be different. We’re peasants, and must obey the law. The Klyntons are elite, and are therefore above the law.

We are peasants. They are the elite. 2 different sets of rules. That's just the way it is.

I was thinking the same thing. We would have already been in jail and the key tossed.

The mistakes that were made, were the fact that their respective sets of parents ever met in the first place.

Nobody is just buying a speech for a half million dollars.

And the money kept rolling out in all directions
To the poor, to the weak, to the destitute of all complexions
Now cynics claim a little of the cash has gone astray
But that’s not the point my friends
When the money keeps rolling out you don’t keep books
You can tell you’ve done well by the happy grateful looks
Accountants only slow things down, figures get in the way
Never been a lady loved as much as Eva Clinton

Rollin’ on out, rollin’ on out
Rollin’ on out, rollin’ on out
On out

Chelsea gives speeches? I would pay NOT to have to listen to her!

It hadn’t previously occurred to me that “mistake” was one of the words being redefined along with marriage, gay and thug.
