MANY [HALF] DONORS TO CLINTON FOUNDATION MET WITH HER AT STATE
AP ^ | 23 August 2016 | STEPHEN BRAUN AND EILEEN SULLIVAN

Posted on 08/23/2016 12:33:58 PM PDT by Fractal Trader

More than half the people outside the government who met with Hillary Clinton while she was secretary of state gave money - either personally or through companies or groups - to the Clinton Foundation. It's an extraordinary proportion indicating her possible ethics challenges if elected president.

At least 85 of 154 people from private interests who met or had phone conversations scheduled with Clinton while she led the State Department donated to her family charity or pledged commitments to its international programs, according to a review of State Department calendars released so far to The Associated Press. Combined, the 85 donors contributed as much as $156 million. At least 40 donated more than $100,000 each, and 20 gave more than $1 million.

Ron Paul had big crowds. So did Bernie. They’re both on the couch right now.

Yea, that's what I'm afraid of.

Karma is a beach. BTW - this isn’t even on Google news or Bing news. Clearly a jury would convict on public corruption charges given 85 chances to prove the misbehavior. FYI the top two stories are Obama in Louisiana and the EpiPen.

My point was specific to the Pulitzer Prizes. It does not mean there are no other reasons that some media types are willing to take on Hillary. I’m merely pointing out that they should not expect to be rewarded with a Pulitzer, which is extremely unlikely to be awarded for any work taking down a liberal politician.

Correct. She probably had some meetings that were done as favors to 0bama or her buddies, Comey, Lynch, and others. She would have had meetings with the florists, cake bakers, caterers, alterations ladies, decorators, musicians, etc. for the wedding. She would have had meetings with yoga instructors. She might have had meetings with people that SHE was paying for some favors in present or future tense. So it is understandable that not ALL of her meetings were about corruption.

I agree. If they show Trump WINNING, take that with a grain of salt too. Win-lose-or-draw, the polls don’t matter.

Let’s get into that ring and knock her political teeth out!

“Ron Paul had big crowds. So did Bernie. They’re both on the couch right now.”

Ouch... Painful but true comment of the day.

This is what we should be focused on rather than the old hag’s health.

OK, this IMO goes around her neck and sinks her.

First we know the charity spent 10% for charity and 90% on administrative fees and salaries.

We are finding she took money from women, children and Jewish abusing entities into the millions.

We know her brother while she was SOS got the ONLY gold mining permit in decades.

Now we see donations from people to her charity from entities she was dealing with as SOS. THAT IS STRAIGHT FORWARD GANGSTA.
This the people will get. I think she REALLY just went down.

Wonder how long it’ll take before this AP reporter is found hanging in his bathroom or shoots himself 3 times in the head?

Didn’t mean to suggest I was disputing your point.

I was using it as a jumping off point to yet another liberal article published today that was exposed by conservative press back in mid-June -— the Laureate scandal.

I am wondering why some prominent Dems are calling for an end to the Clinton Foundation now and some liberal press are spilling the beans the last several days [see my post 28].

Are they so convinced a Hillary victory is in the bag and nothing can harm her?

FTA: “At least 85 of 154 people....”

Let’s just say it was 154 people.
Because we know it was everyone who met with the crook.
