NY Post: Why Didn’t the Democrats Even Mention the Clinton Foundation?

In all the Democratic convention speeches seeking to “humanize” Hillary Clinton, something went curiously missing: her work with the family charity.

You’d think Hillary, Bill and Chelsea would want to use the national stage to tout how their family’s $2 billion foundation is “helping improve the lives of millions of people across the world,” as it boasts.

You’d think we would’ve heard from some of the beneficiaries of the “partnerships between businesses, NGOs, governments and individuals” finding “solutions that last.”

But not a word that we can recall. No speeches, no videos, no personal testimonials — nothing.

The silence is hardly mystifying — for the Clinton Foundation carries heavy baggage.

Starting with the FBI’s investigation into whether any “intersection” between the foundation and the work of Secretary of State Clinton violated anti-corruption laws.

Like her role in handing Russia exclusive mining rights to 20 percent of US uranium reserves via a company that donated millions to the foundation. (You thought Donald Trump was Vladimir Putin’s best friend?)

Yep..... little wonder they wanted to talk about the charity that has made Bill and Hillary worth 125 million dollars. Some charity huh?

Same reason John Gotti never mentioned “The Mafia” on all those hundreds of hours of taped conversation.

Its the same reason why the DNC Media wont investigate the Foundation, because they know if they did they would have to admit the whole Foundation is nothing more than a criminal enterprise

They never mentioned the foundation or the impeachment.

Worse, the “news media” never mentioned them either.

It is truly astonishing that their supposedly massive philanthropic efforts, both the Clinton Foundation and the Clinton Global Initiative, were passed over in silence by ALL of the 160+ speakers. It’s as though some secret or silent message went out beforehand, this entire topic is off-limits. Considering the scope of the Clintonista supposed “charitable” activities, that is simply beyond belief.

There must be some serious embarrassment factor there, and worse.

Bill conveniently glossed over how he soiled the oval office with a cigar and an intern.....

The Clintons are running a money-laundering operation that would make El Chapo green with envy.

Why?

Let's see:

Why does Obama not admit he is muslim?

Why does babs boxer not admit she is dumber than a box of rocks?

Why does billy jeff not admit he is a pervert?

do criminals in the joint never admit to being guilty?

Why does the NY Post have their head up their assets?

Why ask these idiot questions?

Why not simply place, above the fold, the following:

CLINTON DOES NOT MENTION THE FOUNDATION BECAUSE SHE IS ONE CORRUPT BITCH AND WILLING TO SELL THE US, AND YES, EVEN HER SOUL, FOR A FEW MILLION BUCKS, GET IN LINE!

Why Didn’t the Democrats Even Mention the Clinton Foundation?...the DNC didn't, but the Russians are - I've taken to watching some of the news on RT Russia Television on the local cable channel to get their take on things, and tonight they did a clever recut of the puff film done on Hillary at the convention. Kept the soundtrack about all the wonderful things she's done, but substituted video including Benghazi, the Foundation, her illegal server and even Trey Gowdy getting Comey to say she illegally handled classified materials - excellent - I have to laugh when I hear that it's Trump who's giving foreigners a bad view of the US.....

Trump should ask everyone in every interview and rally he does to watch two movies with an open mind - Clinton Cash and Hillary’s America. Then they should ask themselves if that is what they want for the country. The ultimate insiders, the person getting all the hedge fund and wall street money, the people who have become filthy rich “helping others”.

And it might turn out that the DNC was the prime recipient of all the money to ensure Hilldebeest won the nomination in spite of losing to the Sanders popular vote.

Bravo Zulu!!!! Very well done. Excellent catch.

I am angry at myself for not thinking of that first.

I doubt the DNC was the prime recipriate.

More likely the CGI/clinton foundation held on to as much as possible

Yes, her crowning achievement, the foundation bearing her family name, and not a whisper about it. Says a lot. MEDIA, where are you?

The Clinton Foundation is the money laundering hub for the worlds criminals.

Question is, how does this get shut down on a global scale?/

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.
