Tom Fitton on Howie Carr Show: Clinton Foundation Will Shut Down by End of Week
Breitbart ^ | August 24, 2016 | by Neil McCabe

Posted on 08/24/2016 8:51:47 AM PDT by Jim Robinson

The president of Judicial Watch Tuesday told syndicated radio talk show host Howie Carr that the Clinton Foundation will cease operations after the Washington-based watchdog released 725 pages of emails revealing the pay-to-play culture at Secretary Hillary R. Clinton’s State Department.

“I don’t think the Clinton Foundation is going to survive until the end of the week,” said Tom Fitton, the president of Judicial Watch, which released the emails that were produced by the State Department at the direction of a federal judge after JW had to file a federal petition compelling the State Department to fulfill its request for emails to and from Huma Abedin, a long-time aide and confidante of the Democratic nominee for president.

“You really think that, Tom? You really think they can be shamed in any way, shape or form?” asked Carr, who had just finished telling Fitton that the Associated Press had discovered that out of 154 non-governmental people Clinton met with as America’s top diplomat, 85 were donors to the Clinton Foundation or another Clinton-affiliated organization with combined contributions exceeding $156 million. Of the 85, more than 40 gave at least $100,000 and another 20 gave $1 million.

“Why hasn’t the red cross spoken out here.”

When it comes to con artists, the Red Cross is almost as bad as the Clinton Foundation.

IF so-—then someone needs to get a judge to FREEZE all the bank accounts, etc.

I think Tom got a little carried away. Judicial Watch has been right on the cusp of ending the careers of the Clinton crime family for about twenty years now and counting.

“I think Tom got a little carried away.”

agree-—

...but to his point, big Dems and big Dem media are squealing-—and the Clinton surrogate dogs (a la, Carville) covering the airwaves are hysterical:

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

Ed Rendell, Aug 13
Boston Globe, Aug 16

Ed Rendell on Sat, Aug 13th:
“I definitely think if she wins the presidency they have to disband it. I know it’ll be hard for President (Bill) Clinton because he cares very deeply about what the foundation has done,” former Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, a close Clinton ally, told the Daily News. “It’d be impossible to keep the foundation open without at least the appearance of a problem.”

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/hillary-win-shutdown-clinton-foundation-article-1.2750195

Boston Globe on Tuesday, Aug 16:

The Clintons should move now to end donations to the foundation, and make plans to shut it down in November. Even if they’ve done nothing illegal, the foundation will always look too much like a conflict of interest for comfort.

https://www.bostonglobe.com/opinion/editorials/2016/08/16/clinton-foundation-should-stop-accepting-funds/W8JsNkBseYo6wIxWosNb5O/story.html

Apparently, Clintons’ efforts to plug the dike and appease the Dems weren’t reassuring:

Aug 18 -— “The Clinton Foundation said ***Thursday [Aug 18] *** it will not accept foreign or corporate donations if Hillary Clinton is elected president in November.”

“Bill Clinton also plans to cease giving paid speeches”

“... he would resign from the Clinton Foundation board, should Hillary Clinton win in November.”

“Bill Clinton also said the Clinton Global Initiative meeting in New York next month will be the final CGI meeting, no matter what happens with Hillary Clinton in November.”

By Friday, Aug 19, the Clinton Foundation was already reneging -— CHAI and Giustra’s CGEP:

Dem fear isn’t abated; it’s growing. Shutter the Clinton Foundation NOW!

Is there a link to who the clinton foundation donated the bribery money to?

I have only seen one article with Chelsea and Bill giving one of those oversized checks to someone.

Doubt it. Unless they open up under a different name.

Add another to the list:

Huff Po Senior Politics Editor Sam Stein:

Stein said, “[T]hey definitely need to shut this thing down or transfer it to the — to some other foundation. … I mean, can you imagine, the people she’s going to have to meet with as president, assuming she wins, it’ just going overlap constantly. We’ll have stories like this nonstop. There’s too much ethical murkiness here.”

There is not JUST ONE ‘foundation’. They already have multiple foundations set up with various names.

Larry Klayman got carried away a lot. Fitting, not so much.

The con artist Clintons try not to leave evidence hanging around.
