If the DNC Media for ONCE actually investigated the Clintons they wouldn’t get 20 percent of the vote..just play the audio of Hillary Clinton laughing her a@@ off at getting off a child rapist, knowing he was guilty and not giving a damn..they wont play it because it will turn off women voters so they wont say a word

[AlaskaErik]

When Al Capone made a generous donation to a worthy cause, the mayor and other luminaries didn’t mention his criminal ties. Same thing with the Clinton Crime Family Foundation.

[Crimson Elephant]

I am thinking Team Trump is saving Clinton Foundation stuff for the first debate. I wouldn’t mention it at all...lull them a bit....then, if you have some specific charges....dump them on her on live tv.

Just the mere fact they reportedly only give 10-15 percent...whatever it is...to charity sounds bad to the middle voters.

[TruthWillWin]

Why didn’t they mention the Clinton Foundation? Duh, same reason they didn’t mention her success in cattle futures trading.

Good point! After all, maybe she could do the same kind of magic with America’s money.........

[FrdmLvr]

This is a very excellent point! Kudos to the writer! What better platform for Hillary to showcase her magnamous, selfless self than through the CGI? And what better arena to showcase and advocate the CGI than from the stage of the DNC convention?!!! That’s an admission of their corruptness. I know, it’s being investigated by the FBI and THAT’s an admission of their corruptness!

Investigate and expose Chelsea!

She is getting a pass. She is no longer the innocent child playing in the Rose Garden. Trumps kids are being attacked.

Why does she get a free pass. Whenever the Foundation is mentioned, it is just Bill and Hillary.

I get feedback that Chelsea and her husband are dumb. Fine. That should make it easy. Look for the weak link.

Are we going to just sit back and wait for her coronation in a few years? Put a stake through the Cult now.

The foundation is a bank account for depositing campaign contributions under false pretenses from foreign donors

[polymuser]

Excellent question, indeed.

You expect they would have sung praises to the rafters for The Clinton Foundation’s caring, compassionate contributions to so many in need, for the children, for the world, like its new hospital in Haiti.

Wait, it didn’t get built. Wait, not much at all went to charity output. Wait, maybe they did praise it, but the sound masking devices weren’t turned off.?

THE CLINTONS' ABILITY TO GET RICH EXPLOITING
NATIONAL DISASTERS UNDER COVER OF THE CLINTON
FOUNDATION IS LEGENDARY and they do it w/ your tax dollars.
Read on.

Haiti, Malta, the Clintons and Digicel

BFF---Clinton and Digicel CEO/billionaire. Dennis O'Brien.
O'Brien chairs the Clinton Foundation's Global Initiative---Haiti Action Network.
US tax dollars poured into O'Brien's coffers thanks to the Clintons.

EXCERPT Free Beacon May 2015--- The Clintons have been working with Digicel CEO Denis O’Brien in Haiti since 2010, in the wake of the disastrous earthquake. Bill Clinton and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had been active players in the country before the quake, but would assume almost total managerial control over the recovery effort via the State Department and the Clinton Foundation.

As Peter Schweizer documents in his book, "Clinton Cash," Digicel received millions in U.S. tax dollars from USAID, an agency overseen by the State Department, as part of the Haiti Mobile Money Initiative. The program was designed to establish a mobile money-transfer system that would allow individuals to send donations directly to friends and relatives in Haiti.

The State Department's "USAID Food for Peace" program, which was under the direct control of Hillary Clinton’s top aide Cheryl Mills, benefited Digicel.....to administer money transfers over its mobile network. Haitians received cell phones and a free Digicel account.

Digicel received grants courtesy of U.S. taxpayers, and collected millions in fees from Haitians every time they used the system, and significantly expanded its user base.

By 2012, Digicel had captured nearly 80 percent of the Haitian mobile phone market, and Haiti had surpassed Jamaica as the company’s most profitable market. Revenues were up 14 percent compared to 2011, and Digicel’s subscriber base increased by almost 30 percent during that period. O’Brien, who holds a 94 percent stake in the privately owned firm, continued to rake in cash. In 2014 alone, O’Brien awarded himself $650 million worth of dividends.

=========================================

Time to look at Malta to find more dirt on the Clintons.

BACKSTORY Secy Hillary poured billions of our tax dollars into dirt-poor, earthquake-ravaged Haiti as Bill put on his "do-good" act. But Haitian Americans protested the Clinton Foundation offices say dirt-poor Haitians never got a dime...all of the tax dollars have been laundered into the foundation.

REALITY CHECK In some Haitian mountain villages there's no electricity (maybe generators for a few hours), no water, no septic, etc. - but dirt-poor Haiti does have cell-phone coverage.

Reading the many stories of Clinton "do-goodism" in Haiti....he is invariably standing before a Digicel sign. You can bet your bottom dollar the Clintons get a cut of that action.

That's Digicel's CEO on the left.

The Digicel Group is the Caribbean and Central American telecom empire run by Denis O’Brien, an Irish billionaire officially resides in Malta to avoid taxes..... O'Brien serves as chairman of the Clinton Global Initiative’s Haiti Action Network.

Digicel, the largest mobile provider in Haiti, invested $45 million in the project, which also benefited from $26.5 million in financing from the World Bank-affiliated International Finance Corporation. Hillary also tapped the Sate Dept's USAID agency for more tax dollars for the tax-evadng billionaire.

The State Dept's USAID Food for Peace program, under the direct control of Hillary Clinton’s top aide Cheryl Mills, benefited money-hungry Digicel.....to administer money transfers over its mobile network.

Haitians received cell phones and a free Digicel account; Digicel received grants courtesy of U.S. taxpayers, collected millions in fees from Haitians every time they used the system, and significantly expanded its user base.

But it was Bill Clinton who made it all happen.

I watched Chelsea introduce her mom at the DNC. You have no need to worry about Chelsea ever holding any office, let alone the presidency.

She is worse than Caroline Kennedy who quit her senate bid because she had terrible speaking and presentation skills.

Bill Clinton ‘Unaware’ Brother-In-Law served as Board member of
Haitian Gold Mining company that Landed Rare Mining Permit
Breitbart ^ | March 2015 | Rich Tucker / FR Posted by Cats Pajamas

Controversy surrounding the Clintons only deepened with the recent revelation, contained in an upcoming book by Peter Schweizer, that Tony Rodham — Hillary Clinton’s younger brother — serves on the advisory board of a U.S.-based company that in 2012 won one of Haiti’s first two gold-mining permits in 50 years.

After objection from the Haitian senate, the permits have been placed on hold.

“Neither Bill Clinton nor the brother of Hillary Clinton are individuals who share the interests of the Haitian people,” said Samuel Nesner, an anti-mining activist who thinks mining poses great environmental risks and will mainly benefit foreign investors. “They are part of the elite class who are operating to exploit the Haitian people.” (Excerpt) Read more at breitbart.com ...

Then-Secy of State Hillary poured Billions of your tax dollars
into ravaged Haiti. But these tidbits tell a huge other story.

==================================================

Bill Clinton and his best buddy, gold mining mogul, Frank Giustra,
cameras snapping, made a big show of Clinton/Giustra do-goodism in
earthquake-ravaged Haiti.

REALITY CHECK Then-Secy Hillary supposedly gave Haiti $3.1 billion tax dollars for Earthquake Relief.

But Haitian-American protesters claim that American aid to Haiti was a cover-for foreign governments to funnel kickbacks of hundreds of millions of dollars to The Clinton Foundation.

For example, gold mining expert Giustra "gave" the Foundation $100 million....after Bill helped him make billions off uranium deals. Hillary's brother mysteriously got a rare gold mining license in Haiti (now on hold due to controversy).

=========================================

Hillary and Frank Giustra, left.

Hes a gold mining mogul......he facilitated the takeover of US uranium assets.... this billionaire received your tax dollars from Hillary's State Dept.

Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra is one of the Clinton Foundation’s largest donors. Giustra's $100 million contributions go directly:

<><> (1) to the tax-exempt Clinton Foundation, and,

<><> (2) to the Canada-based "Clinton-Giustra Enterprise Partnership."

The "Clinton-Giustra Enterprise Partnership" in turn sends money to the Clinton Foundation......(according to Canadian tax records researched by "Clinton Cash" author Schweizer).

============================================

The NY Times reported the "Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership" collected about $33 million US tax dollars from Hillary's State Dept between 2008 and 2013.....$25 million of which was passed back across the border to the US-based Clinton Foundation.

Giustra then pledged $100 million to the Foundation after Clinton helped him clinch the mega-bucks uranium deal.

ITEM---millions of dollars and 1,100 donors are shrouded in mystery in the Canadian Giustra/Clinton operation. The Clinton Foundation signed a memorandum of understanding with the Obama White House agreeing to reveal its contributors every year. The agreement stipulates that the Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative (as the charity was then-known) is part of the Clinton Foundation and must follow the same protocols.

SURPRISE: It hasnt.

Caught w/ his pants down, Giustra/s backtracking like crazy---saying Canadas federal privacy law forbids the Canadian-registered Clinton charity, from revealing its donors.

A memo he provided news organs cites fiduciary obligations to its contributors and Canada’s Personal Information Privacy and Electronic Disclosure Act. “We are not allowed to disclose even to the Clinton Foundation the names of our donors,” Giustra says.

However, Canadian tax and privacy law experts were dubious of the Clinton/Giustra claims. A former director knowledgeable about tax policy at Canada's Department of Finance, said he wasnt aware of any tax laws that would prevent the Clinton charity from releasing its donor names. " There's nothing that would preclude them from releasing donor names. It's entirely up to them."

tonight they [RT] did a clever recut of the puff film done on Hillary at the convention

I hope they post it online.

[Honorary Serb]

The clintons even robbed the desperately poor, earthquake dispossessed people of Haiti!!

That makes them villains out of a Dickens novel!!!!

NO ONE should want to trust them once again with the highest office in our land!!!!

[Intolerant in NJ]

They repeated it again this afternoon - even better the second time around - takeoff on the “This Is A Woman” presentation at the DNC show - the Russians, or at least RT - really have it in for Hillary, probably because she’s blaming them for the hackings - they’ll probably be repeating this often on their news programs, which seem to be every hour on the hour - doesn’t seem to be on their website or YouTube yet, but I’ll bet it shows up soon....

[BlackFemaleArmyColonel]

Yep. Her actions are fraudulent.

[conservatism_IS_compassion]

No one is questioning what is going to happen with the Clinton Foundation if Hillary is elected.

Look at what Hillary sold to benefit the family cash machine while she was Sec of State. Think of what she will do as President.

Huge conflicts of interest.

Article 1 Section 9:

No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States: and no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state

You can strain at gnats and swallow camels to claim that having your spouse accept emoluments (“honoraria for speeches”) from foreign governments while you are a federal official. And you can claim that acceptance by a foundation of which you are a principal of donations from foreign governments while you are a federal official is not a gift to you personally. But, if you claim credit for good works done by said foundation, you are then profiting from those donations - and are in violation of the Constitution.

So I guess, in a backhanded way, Hillary was following the Constitution by not bragging about the Foundation’s good works (if any).
