It turns out that Bill Clinton raked in millions from entities with matters before Hillary Clinton's State Department. Oh, and the Clinton Foundation collected millions more from the same bunch.
In total, The Wall Street Journal reports, two dozen companies and groups, plus the Abu Dhabi government, gave Bill more than $8 million for speeches, even as they were hoping for favorable treatment from Hillary's bureaucracy. And 15 of them also gave at least $5 million total to the foundation.
At her confirmation hearing, questioners raised the issue of her hubby's global business. Hillary vowed to take "extraordinary steps... to avoid even the appearance of a conflict of interest."
Count 13 million record fails for those "extraordinary steps."

For the record, I can be bribed as well. Abu, gimme a call.
Today their net worth is 80 million.
That ought to be enough to kill her chances this November.
Hillary Clinton “misplaced” $6,000,000,000 of US taxpayer money while serving as our Secretary of State.
She needs to be misplaced to prison.
When will someone step up and arrest this criminal Bitch.
bump
80 Million is WAY TOO LOW!! They have almost a BILLION, or maybe even more now, in the Clinton CRIME Family SLUSH FUND!
But still, its obvious the Clintons got into politics to do good. And they've done very well indeed.
Why would Americans allow them to rape and plunder further.
Their criminal “foundation” has a couple billion plus. I’m sure their idiot daughter and her spawn will be growing that.
me too.
gimme me a million and I’l write nice things for HRC on FR, with the /s attached....
Bill and Hillary Clinton learned their craft under the guidance of H.W. back went Bill was the gov of Arkansas.
Don’t hold yer breath!! FBI answers to DOJ who answers to the white hut. Really depressing.
When Bill Clinton was president, he allowed Hillary to assume authority over a health care reform. Even after threats and intimidation, she couldn’t even get a vote in a democrat controlled congress. This fiasco cost the American taxpayers about $13 million in cost for studies, promotion, and other efforts.
Then President Clinton gave Hillary authority over selecting a female attorney general. Her first two selections were Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood - both were forced to withdraw their names from consideration. Next she chose Janet Reno - husband Bill described her selection as “my worst mistake.” Some may not remember that Reno made the decision to gas David Koresh and the Branch Davidian religious sect in Waco, Texas resulting in dozens of deaths of women and children.
Husband Bill allowed Hillary to make recommendations for the head of the Civil Rights Commission. Lani Guanier was her selection. When a little probing led to the discovery of Ms. Guanier’s radical views, her name had to be withdrawn from consideration.
Apparently a slow learner, husband Bill allowed Hillary to make some more recommendations. She chose former law partners Web Hubbel for the Justice Department, Vince Foster for the White House staff, and William Kennedy for the Treasury Department. Her selections went well: Hubbell went to prison, Foster (presumably) committed suicide, and Kennedy was forced to resign.
Many younger voters will have no knowledge of “Travelgate.” Hillary wanted to award unfettered travel contracts to Clinton friend Harry Thompson – and the White House Travel Office refused to comply. She managed to have them reported to the FBI and fired. This ruined their reputations, cost them their jobs, and caused a thirty-six month investigation. Only one employee, Billy Dale was charged with a crime, and that of the enormous crime of mixing personal and White House funds. A jury acquitted him of any crime in less than two hours.
Still not convinced of her ineptness, Hillary was allowed to recommend a close Clinton friend, Craig Livingstone, for the position of Director of White House security. When Livingstone was investigated for the improper access of about 900 FBI files of Clinton enemies (Filegate) and the widespread use of drugs by White House staff, suddenly Hillary and the president denied even knowing Livingstone and, of course, denied knowledge of drug use in the White House. Following this debacle, the FBI closed its White House Liaison Office after more than thirty years of service to seven presidents.
Next, when women started coming forward with allegations of sexual harassment and rape by Bill Clinton, Hillary was put in charge of the “bimbo eruption” and scandal defense. Some of her more notable decisions in the debacle were:
*She urged her husband not to settle the Paula Jones lawsuit. After the Starr investigation they settled with Ms. Jones.
*She refused to release the Whitewater documents, which led to the appointment of Ken Starr as Special Prosecutor. After $80 million dollars of taxpayer money was spent, Starr’s investigation led to Monica Lewinsky, which led to Bill lying about and later admitting his affairs.
Hillary’s devious game plan resulted in Bill losing his license to practice law for ‘lying under oath’ to a grand jury and then his subsequent impeachment by the House of Representatives.
Hillary avoided indictment for perjury and obstruction of justice during the Starr investigation by repeating, “I do not recall,” “I have no recollection,” and “I don’t know” a total of 56 times while under oath.
After leaving the White House, Hillary was forced to return an estimated $200,000 in White House furniture, china, and artwork that she had stolen.
Now we are exposed to the destruction of possibly incriminating emails while Hillary was Secretary of State and the “pay to play” schemes of the Clinton Foundation - we have no idea what shoe will fall next. But to her loyal fans - “what difference does it make?”
Since leaving the White House, the Clinton’s, through 2014, have made $221,139,576.00 and BOTH are drawing taxpayer funded U. S. Government pensions.
ISIS has no Navy, no boats, no ships, no submarines. They have no Air Force, no bombers, no jet fighters, no troop carriers or refueling planes. ISIS has no ballistic missiles, no scuds, no short range missiles. They have no Space Program, no satellites, no real time intelligence.
THE ONLY WEAPON SYSTEMS ISIS HAS THAT CAN KILL AMERICANS ARE THE OBAMA/CLINTON/JARRETT/LYNCH/ DHS SECY JEH JOHNSON + the TRAITORS & DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS, WHO DEMAND WE ALLOW MUSLIMS TO IMMIGRATE TO AMERICA TO SLAUGHTER INNOCENT AMERICANS.
Then, they try to disarm us to make us more vulnerable.

In corruption, Paulson was always a piker compared to the clintons.
The FR link below thanks to Starman417 shows the massive amount of $’s donated to the Clintoons by the Opecker Princes to buy them for their Islamic goals.
Ethics and the Clintons rarely intersect. That’s a given.
It’s well known that the Clintons are more than willing to take money from oppressive regimes:
The State Department formally approved ... arms sales even as many of the deals enhanced the military power of countries ruled by authoritarian regimes whose human rights abuses had been criticized by the department. Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Qatar all donated to the Clinton Foundation and also gained State Department clearance to buy caches of American-made weapons even as the department singled them out for a range of alleged ills, from corruption to restrictions on civil liberties to violent crackdowns against political opponents.
The Clintons can be induced to abandon all principles when it comes to money:
Four oil-rich Arab nations, all with histories of philanthropy to United Nations and Middle Eastern causes, have donated vastly more money to the Clinton Foundation than they have to most other large private charities involved in the kinds of global work championed by the Clinton family.
Since 2001, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates gave as much as $40 million to the Clinton Foundation. In contrast, six similar non-governmental global charities collected no money from those same four Middle Eastern countries; the International Committee of the Red Cross was given $6.82 million. Since 2001, these global foundations have raised a staggering $40 billion to $50 billion to fund their humanitarian work.
The existence of foreign donors to the Clinton Foundation has been well-documented in the media. What has not been revealed, however, is the disparity in donations by these four nations, all of which have been criticized by the State Department over the years for a spate of issues ranging from the mistreatment of women to stoking ethnic discord in the flammable Middle East.

You misjudge the stupidity and gullibility of Hillary liberals. These kind countries and socially responsible corporations donated to a charity.
They really are that credulous. There is no way you can convince these mental cripples that the Clinton Foundation is a criminal enterprise, and that any attack isn't a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.
$CHLONG HER!
for folks in Rio-linda that means 'beat her'
