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.

Read those articles - my reply to them would be "Prove it".

....and that is exactly where we're at.

There is NO smoking gun....there is NO evidence of wrongdoing.......yet.

The Clinton surrogates reek of desperation and hysteria:

“My Family Will Die!” if GOP Won’t Allow Clinton Crime Family to Operate Foundation http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3462220/posts

Carville: People Are Going To Die Without Clinton Foundation http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3462214/posts

So what? People die because they oppose the Clinton Foundation or the Clintons all the time.

Pay to play for those who are owned lock stock and barrel by the insiders, like Clinton. Greedy insiders who only care about their bottom line, than Americans or America. No joke.

I am surprised, really I am. First this is from AP and second she only had pay to play with only %50 of people she met. I find that hard to believe she did have more.

The 154 did not include U.S. federal employees or foreign government representatives. Clinton met with representatives of at least 16 foreign governments that donated as much as $170 million to the Clinton charity, but they were not included in AP's calculations because such meetings would presumably have been part of her diplomatic duties.

According to the WSJ this doesn’t even count internationals so the number is many more than 50%! Impeach her!

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

Trump ran against 16 Reps, none of whom had really big crowds. Trump did have big crowds. Trump is the Rep nominee and the 16 are sitting on the couch right now.

Why would anyone with aspirations to run for president, get involved with an operation like this? Do they really think that they are fireproof? Do they really think that they can get away with anything? Talk about hubris.

alas, the Clintonistas think they are fire-proof and bomb-proof..... so far that has proved to be the case, more or less, for the impeached rapist did not actually get removed from office..... let’s hope that Nov.8 will be the electoral destruction of the “Clinton brand’ followed by real RICO investigations and prosecutions!!

Exactly. When the do finally tell the truth about their fellow politicians it’s usually only half the story.

“Impeach her!”

Congressional Republicans? Really?

They probably have a rule against impeaching a vagina.

The only thing Slickwilly cares about the foundation is the easy access to cash.

Where is Paul “Eddie Munster” Ryan? Where is Mitch “Yurtle, Capn of Team Mitch” McConnel? Where is justice? Oh yes, they are the Elites. They have POWER. They are special, they RULE. They suck.
