Hillary Calls for Investigation into Gas Company that Stopped Giving to Clinton Foundation
Breitbart ^ | November 1, 2015 | By Patrick Howley

Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton called for an investigation into ExxonMobil after the gas company cut off its donations to the Clinton Foundation.

The Clinton Foundation has taken at least $1 million from ExxonMobil and co-sponsored the Foundation’s 2014 annual meeting. But the company decided not to co-sponsor the Foundation’s annual meeting in New York City in late September 2015, according to a report by International Business Times.

With the cash faucet cut off, Clinton took the opportunity to appeal to climate-change activists calling for an investigation into ExxonMobil’s business practices.

“Yes, they should” open an investigation, Clinton said, referring to the Department of Justice, in a video released by the group 350 Action. . .

This is just a “peek” at what a Hitlary presidency would look like. “You don’t wanna play ball, we will destroy you!” Slick was a “semi-affable guy” who went through his presidency with an erection, OTOH, HItlary is a just plain evil cur!

Imagine that witch's campaign people calling you up cold and asking for a donation...

Donate or you'll be audited.

May only be a matter of time.

"I'm beginning to question her integrity."

Because the leftwing is already questioning her integrity?

You have to look at how the story rolled out.

In Sept, two independent sources published reports that Exxon internally investigated the issue(CO2 and global warming), but decided to cover it up.

So some democrats began calling for a federal investigation. Among the dem candidates, O'Malley would be the first(Oct 18) to call for an investigation. Then Sanders(Oct 20). And finally Clinton(Oct 30).

The dems criticize Hillary because she is a corporatist democrat aka a DLC democrat. They say she is head of the republican wing of the democrat party, and the fact that she was tardy in calling for the Exxon investigation proves it.

I can only hope and pray that America doesn’t choose to be led by the likes of her.

Despite some donors dropping away because of the scandal (and utter depravity of the Clintons)......actual donations are up at the Clinton Foundation.

Foundation donations up? ROTFLOL.

Anybody believes that, I got a bridge I can sell 'em ...real cheap...in Brooklyn.

Looks like the conniving Clintons are pumping out the agit-prop 24/7.

Dollars to donuts, Bill is wire transferring "donations" from their many offshore accounts to prop up the fairy tale that Hillary's still a viable candidate.

Shakedown!

Recall, it was the Clinton Whitehouse that extorted billions from Big Tobacco and it was to reimburse the taxpayer.

Clintons decided to skip out on the taxpayer and collect the shakedown fees themselves.

These Clintons are very enterprising and savy politicians who are not afraid of being smeared as criminals since there is not controlling legal authority.

I gave to the CF. Will you?

Signal to others to stay in line and continue to stay on board or the retribution will be mighty and forceful should Hillary win the presidency.

If Hillary does lose, it will be interesting to see how she/Clinton Machine makes up for all of those ‘contributors’ who would fail to get preferential status from the non-Hillary presidency.
