Donald Trump launched a new allegation at Hillary Clinton on Tuesday, accusing her of having "laundered" money through a for-profit university while she was secretary of state.
In a rapid-response email blast sent during Clinton’s speech attacking Trump’s economic proposals, the billionaire’s campaign accused the former secretary of state of funneling government money to Laureate Education, a for-profit chain of universities that employed Bill Clinton as honorary chancellor until April 2015.
The former president made $16.5 million over his five years in that position while his wife added Laureate to the State Department Global Partnership. Trump alleges the Department of State awarded $55.2 million in grants to Laureate, an accusation that is not quite accurate since there is no indication that State Department money flowed directly to the for-profit education chain. According to Bloomberg, the $55.2 million in State Department and USAID grant money actually went to the International Youth Foundation, a non-profit group headed by Laurate Education Chairman Douglas Becker.

30% kick back sounds about par for the Clintons.
Wow! Trump is saying the things that until he came around were kept under locks and chains. Wonderful!
I tell you... I hope he has proof and isn’t just firing off at the mouth with hearsay. Otherwise, he is digging a deep hole. That’s a large accusation. If true, it needs to be prosecuted by the US.
If it is an empty accusation... The Don will ultimately pay. Two bad weeks is not good.
Try not to fret. Some of the recent polls are biased with a 7 to 10% oversampling of rats. The swing State polls are a dead heat within the margin for error. Hillary is distrusted by half the population so all Trump has to do is keep her graft and falsehoods a constant drum beat until election day.
“If it is an empty accusation... The Don will ultimately pay.”
Why do you say that? Have you ever watched Hillary open her mouth and talk?
Empty accusation? Hillary is in too much to keep it all hidden.
Yeah but come on, when the Clintons do it its A OK cause they are liberal..nothing the Clintons do is EVER illegal
HILLARY CLINTON:CAREER CRIMINAL
The 20 minute video at the link below was published in November, 2015 and has so far had nearly 6 MILLION views. It needs to go to 60 MILLION OR MORE. See if you can help that happen!
As I watched, I kept thinking how in God’s name could ANY sentient, logical citizen vote for this woman. I’m a rather peaceful guy, but I then moved on to a thought that frightened me: I could easily support the new president negotiating with the current owners of what the French owners at the time called “Devil’s Island”, buying the place then PACKING EVERY CLINTON VOTER OFF TO SPEND THE REST OF HIS/HER LIFE GAZING AT HIS/HER NAVAL AND THE SEA.
And as obozo’s maladministration winds down and HIS criminality and TREASON come under scrutiny and become more visible, I’d add HIS supporters to the list!
WHY? Because, by their failure to grasp the most fundamental concepts under which this place was created, it is a certainty that they WILL DESTROY IT and only the most Draconian methods will halt that destruction!
All of that said, banishment is a far more merciful fate than that discussed by obozo’s mentor, Bill Ayers and others, as described in the 2 minute Larry Grathwohl video here:

PLEASE SHARE THIS AS WIDELY AS POSSIBLE!!
Dear God, I hope he has ample evidence to back this up!!
Riding the Trump Train has become a nerve-wracking ordeal!!
We cannot afford any more controversies and pummeling from the media!
I am praying that Trump thoroughly destroys the wicked witch!!
He just needs irrefutable proof that will stand up to scrutiny!!
So you bought MSM story about a “bad week” for Trump? Are you that gullible?
But.. but.. but... All of Trump’s books end with Chapter 11.... Oh those witty loser Democrats.
Hillary is a crook. I can’t wait until the Donald is done exposing her.
“According to Bloomberg, the $55.2 million in State Department and USAID grant money actually went to the International Youth Foundation, a non-profit group headed by Laurate Education Chairman Douglas Becker.”
Isn’t the International Youth Foundation a branch of the Clinton Global Initiative ?
You do realize that if Trump were winning 2:1 the presstitutes would still be saying exactly what they’re saying?
If Trump is the “King of bankruptcy”, Hillary is the “Goddess of Money-Laundering”!!!
Did anyone comprehend anything from the 90's. It was a pretty long batch of source material. Sheesh!
Millions over a decade get you in jail. Billions gets you cocktail receptions with waiters in Bow ties and the US attorneys beg for an invitation just to rub elbows.
Rush has been on this for weeks, already. Hannity (Meh), too.
The foundation probably reimbursed expenses of the university.
“Trump alleges the Department of State awarded $55.2 million in grants to Laureate, an accusation that is not quite accurate since there is no indication that State Department money flowed directly to the for-profit education chain.”
Politico carrying water for Her Heinous is a little disingenuous here.
One definition of money laundering is, a procedure that allows criminals to transform illegally obtained gain into seemingly legitimate funds.
She couldn’t just give Bill state Dept./federal money. So they had to create a sinecure for Slick, with Laureate keeping the rest. Like Jeb and Lehman brother.
That would mean (I think) that Trump might agree with Politico. Bill was paid for being an “honorary chancellor” for Laureate, legitimate outfit. IOW for being Hillary’s beard in yet another laundering-type boondoggle for which the two are famous.
Even if she is broke.
Oh stop your hand wringing, it’s unbecoming.
And unnecessary.
Seehs, you were born what, yesterday?
