Trump University Lawsuit Brought By Firm Who Paid $675,000 To Bill and Hillary Clinton…

Hillary is about to discover being a badass gangster is still not seriously big league stuff.

So much for justice is blind and that people can get a fair shake in this country.

Top of the hour newscast, the news reader said that Trump University gave pointers on how to take advantage of tax loophole, like that was a bad thing. It is a thrill to take advantage of a tax loophole.

Bingo!

Thanks GilGil.

There’s more...

Politico now has a hit piece on Trump’s wealth not being what it is, attributed to ‘shady’ accounting practices and over-valued real estate. Except that... should Trump revalue real estate, then the government would have ‘new’ appraisals and taxes on said values that would, in my estimation, ‘unexpectedly’ be worth more. So, Trump could owe...

The TrumpU suit in at least one feature claims that people were taught about exploiting tax loopholes. Buy low. Sell high. Since when is this a bad plan?

Plenty of bloggers are posting about Clinton releasing all kinds of years of tax returns. May I please remind people that Bill Clinton was present at the Indiana location where at least the 2007 Clintons’ tax records BURNED UP. At the TIME that they burned up. “In fact, according to a spokesman for the Terre Haute Fire Department, the tax returns may have been ignited first, setting off the conflagration that burned the building to the ground.”

Law firm suing Trump gave Hillary $675,000 for a speech?

PERFECT campaign issue for Donald.....he needs to run and rerun all those videos of smiling, happy Hillary at the dias rifling through her notes.

She does not PERMIT her remarks to be aired.....(got that Donald?). Bernie’s been begging to see the G/S speech.

The Clintons musta thought Hillary’s speechmaking made her more electable....so they gave them out to the MSM.

Hah.

Happy smiling Hillary knew something we only found out later....she was cashing huge checks for these speeches.

ROFLMAO!!! The truth always comes out...and the Butcher of Benghazi and the Rapist and sexual abuser are right in the middle of it...

Ho, Ho, Ho....I can not wait to hear Trumps speech on this one!!!

GO.TRUMP.GO!!! ALL THE WAY TO THE OVAL OFFICE!!!

HILLARY---WHITE PRIVILEGE ON STEROIDS

"Watta bunch of suckers---I pocket a $300,000 speaking fee, plus perks up my kazoo.
I make no major policy statements that might hurt my image for 2016. ROTFLOL."

WASH/PO By Rosalind S. Helderman and Philip Rucker

Plans for UCLA visit give rare glimpse into Hillary Clinton’s paid speaking career.....she was paid $300,000 to speak to UCLA students and faculty in March. (UCLA) When officials at the University of California at Los Angeles began negotiating a $300,000 speech appearance by Hillary Rodham Clinton, the school had one request: Could we get a reduced rate for public universities? The answer from Clinton’s representatives: $300,000 is the “special university rate.”

That e-mail exchange and other internal communications, obtained this week by The Washington Post under a Freedom of Information Act request, provide a rare glimpse into the complex and meticulous backstage efforts to manage the likely 2016 presidential candidate’s lucrative speaking career.

At UCLA, efforts to book Clinton and then prepare for her visit were all-consuming, beginning almost immediately after she left her job as secretary of state on Feb. 1, 2013, until she delivered her Luskin Lecture for Thought Leadership speech on March 5, 2014.

The documents show that Clinton’s representatives at the Harry Walker Agency exerted considerable control over her appearance and managed even the smallest details — from requesting lemon wedges and water on stage to a computer, scanner, and a spread of hummus and crudité in the green room backstage.

Top university officials discussed at length the style and color of the executive armchairs Clinton and moderator Lynn Vavreck would sit in as they carried on a question-and-answer session, as well as the kind of pillows to be situated on each chair. Clinton’s representatives requested that the chairs be outfitted with two long, rectangular pillows — and that two cushions be kept backstage in case the chair was too deep and she needed additional back support.

After a lengthy call with a Clinton representative, UCLA administrator Patricia Lippert reported to campus colleagues, “She uses a lavalier [microphone] and will both speak from the audience and walk around stage, TED talk style. We need a teleprompter and 2-3 downstage scrolling monitors [for] her to read from.”

During a walk-through of Royce Hall five days before the lecture, the e-mails show, Clinton’s team rejected the podium planned for her use during her 20- to 30-minute speech, setting off a scramble on campus to find a suitable podium and rent a new university seal to match.

In the nearly two years since stepping down as secretary of state, Clinton has made dozens of paid appearances across the country at industry conventions and Wall Street banks as well as at universities. Her UCLA fee, like those at other universities, went to the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation, the family’s nonprofit group.

But critics have argued that the carefully staged events and high speaking fees could complicate Clinton’s ability to run a populist campaign built around the economic struggles of the middle class.

Versions of Clinton’s standard speaking contracts have surfaced publicly this year — including her luxury travel requirements — but the contracts do not contain the extensive detail seen in the UCLA communications.

It is unclear how personally involved Clinton was in the UCLA negotiations and whether the requests from her agency were being directed by her or merely from underlings anticipating her preferences. A Clinton spokesman declined to comment on the speaking arrangements.

It is commonplace for celebrity speakers to request special accommodations — and Clinton was no exception. Her representatives asked for a case of still water, room temperature, to be deposited stage right. They also asked that “a carafe of warm/hot water, coffee cup and saucer, pitcher of room temperature water, water glass, and lemon wedges” be situated both on a table on stage as well as in another room where Clinton would stand for photos with VIPs.

For the green room, Clinton’s representatives requested: “Coffee, tea, room temp sparkling and still water, diet ginger ale, crudité, hummus and sliced fruit.” They also asked for a computer, mouse and printer, as well as a scanner, which the university had to purchase for the occasion.

When university officials decided to award Clinton the UCLA Medal, Clinton’s team asked that it be presented to her in a box rather than draped around her neck. That request was sent to the university’s chancellor, Gene Block.

“Chancellor Block has agreed to accommodate Hillary Clinton’s request to have the medal presented in a box,” Assistant Provost Margaret Leal-Sotelo wrote in one e-mail.

Lippert replied: “I can either have the jewelers box open or closed, in case the Chancellor doesn’t want to risk opening it.” By contract, Clinton’s approval was needed for any promotional materials. Clinton gave permission for the university to record the event, but “for archival purposes only.”

For public distribution, Clinton’s speaking agency approved only a two-minute highlight video to upload to YouTube. “Please make sure it is available only for one (1) year from the date of posting,” a Harry Walker Agency official added.

Clinton posed for individual photos with 100 VIPS, or 50 couples — “We get a total of 50 clicks,” one university official explained — as well as two group photos. Lippert wrote to colleagues that Clinton’s representatives wanted the group shots “prestaged,” with participants assembled and ready to take the photographs before Clinton arrived “so the secretary isn’t waiting for these folks to get their act together.” Reiterating the request, Lippert added, “She doesn’t like to stand around waiting for people.”

Like many major universities, UCLA regularly pays high-profile speakers to visit campus. Many of the visits are funded through a private endowment and not with tuition or public dollars. Clinton’s appearance was privately funded as part of a lecture series endowed by Meyer Luskin, an investor and president of Scope Industries, a food waste recycling company.

Those who oppose Hillary...

Now, don’t you wish she were president.

Trump said in his latest presser that the lead plaintiff was pulled out of the lawsuit because Trump has her on video praising Trump University.

So it turns out the judge overseeing Trump's lawsuit is in the Clintons' pockets.

The law firms suing Trump are in the Clintons' pockets.

Don’t miss the La Raza connection of judge!

I was just reviewing some old FR threads, searching `Trump University lawsuit,’ all dated March 1st through end of March.

Unfounded but virulent accusations of Trump fraud & malfeasance, as well as the usual nasty name-calling by the now unmasked GOP-e #nevertrumpers.

Ah, the memories: `Trumpets, Trumpkins, Trumpsters. Trumpeteers’, etc., all the clever names they came up with, with many of these screeches since then having been moved on to greener pastures, with those remaining (in deep cover) wheedling that Trump must humbly beg for reptilians Felito, Yeb, Mittens & Co. to climb aboard and ? .... watch his back.

Now we find out that it is all a legal humbug patched together by minions of Hitlary Clinton

bump to the top

Trump’s $200k he donated to the Clinton foundation cannot match the $675k the lawyers donated.

Isn't this just precious!

How many of these names below fit/match your search?

For over 5 decades, my wife and I have paid CPAs good money to do our income taxes, to direct us to legal tax loopholes and for legal tax advice.

BRAVO, Dave !

It is a thrill to take advantage of a tax loophole.

Tax loopholes are not 'loopholes'...they are a part of the very complicated tax code. They are legal. They are ways to reduce Federal Income Taxes. Why? Because those who write Tax Law (Tax Codes) want them that way. If they did not want these 'loopholes', they would cease to exist.

If you do not take advantage of everything in the tax code pertaining to your tax filings, you are paying too much on your Federal Income Taxes!

If this gets out the media will drop the story like a hot potato.
