Hillary and Bill Clinton earned nearly $141 million over the course of eight years and paid $43 million in federal taxes, according to tax returns her campaign released Friday.
In a lengthy statement and on her campaign website, Clinton detailed that she and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, paid more than $43 million in federal taxes from 2007 to 2014, over $13 million in state taxes and donated nearly $15 million to charity over the same period.
Clinton said she and her husband paid an effective federal tax rate of 35.7 percent and a combined federal, state, and local effective rate of 45.8 percent last year. They also donated almost $15 million, or 10.6% of their income over that period, to charity. It is not clear how much of that money went to The Clinton Foundation, their family's philanthropic organization.
The couple earned $140.9 million and a total adjusted gross income of $139.1 million, the returns show.

In this case, that would be "crimes".
“Dead broke”
I thought Hillary Benghazi said that she and Billy were broke. We don’t need another liar in the Rainbow Palace.
And didn’t produce a single thing except hot, fetid air
MY definition of ‘dead broke’, was having in my possession, a gym bag and a laptop bag, and that was it, after Hurricane Katrina.
Bless her little obsidian heart.
Although the IRS has long held bribes are taxable income, it’s rare a recipient actually reports and pays taxes on it.
Depends on what your definition of the word “earned” is.
$15 million to charity? That’s a lot of used underwear.
I am so glad to see that there are “poor” Democrats out there. Makes my heart ache and tears flow.
Why not give the bitch some free cheese and an IPhone?
Give Bill free condoms.
Hell, I’ll give Bill my college varsity sweater just to keep him warm. However, I’ve taken my “T” letter off and put on the name “Monica”. Just to keep him happy and piss off Hillary, the cuckolded bitch of West Chester County.
For her, a dog blanket full of fleas.
a lifetime of feeding at the public trough. Not a bad haul at all. White Privilege (it pays well)
How????? Is the big question. No jobs per say...
LIARS: In total, the Clintons donated $14,959,450.00 to charity over that period, with $14,769,000 of that going to the foundation.
They donated to charity to get a tax deduction and they were the charity and CNN says it is not clear. LOL
They didn’t “earn” one red cent.
I don’t make that much and I pay over 49% to feds and state! How the heck do they get it down to 35.5%?
More like they sold 141 million dollars worth of influence over 8 years. Bet that’s a real light envelope, too...
“They also donated almost $15 million, or 10.6% of their income over that period, to charity. It is not clear how much of that money went to The Clinton Foundation, their family’s philanthropic organization.”
“Not clear” = liberal mediaspeak for “we know exactly the amount, but we’re withholding that information from you to protect hillary’s reputation”
Yup. Nothing is more gratifying than a life long career as a "public servant".
And condoms.
Somehow, that figure seems low.
