Hillary Clinton continued to justify her high-dollar speaking fees on Friday, telling ABC News’ Ann Compton that all of the money she’s made from colleges over the past year and a half has been donated to her family’s foundation. “All of the fees have been donated to the Clinton Foundation for it to continue its life-changing and life-saving work. So it goes from a foundation at a university to another foundation,” Clinton said when asked about the criticism she and her husband have faced recently for their wealth. Hillary Clinton reportedly makes roughly $200,000 for each speaking engagement. And recent reports show

So she takes the fees, and donates them to a closely held family foundation? And that is supposed to show us that she is not actually getting the money? Really???

Are they really trying to insult our intelligence??? Or do they assume that critical masses of people are so dumbed down as to accept this explanation?

But this leaves it unclear whether the university administrators who invited Hillary in the first place will still be in consideration for positions in the next Clinton administration or not.

If she wants to donate, why doesn’t she donate to the university, help some of those kids out with their $tens of thou debt bills?

These kids had better not buy this lame excuse. Of course they’ll have to , on the outside

I’d like to see her give it to my foundation! But seriously, she should give that money to the poor. She and Bill, like reverends Jesse and Al, and so many others have gotten filthy rich by helping the poor.

Why doesn’t she simply ask for them to donate themoney to the foundation directly then?

These friggin’ Arkansas grifters are quite the pair. Liars to the bone....

Does she really think that this makes sense to middle America; that she takes the money and gives it to a family foundation which she controls? A family foundation which pays her and Bill and Chelsea big salaries????

Does she really think that this makes us think that she herself is not getting the money, because she donates it to a corporation which she controls?????

Are they really trying to insult our intelligence???

Very few in the LSM has ever called them out on their lies, so they keep doing it, as the LSM majority ignores and/or buries the lies.

ABC, huh? They hired Steffi...

Nope. ARE insulting your intelligence. They think so little of you and the rest of the population that it comes naturally to them.

We are deserving though of such insults. After all, how could we be anything but stupid to have put up with their crap for so long?

She donates the income to the Clinton Foundation. She of course is a trustee of the Foundation, so she draws a salary and expenses ... oddly enough, in an amount just about equal to the amount she donates.

Can I ask a stupid question? What life changing and life saving work does the Clinton foundation do?

I’m not being flippant here. I’m really willing to give the Clintons credit if they are doing something which helps humanity.

I just have no idea what that foundation does. Skeptic that I am, I tend to assume it was set up for self aggrandizement, but, do want to credit the Clintons if this foundation actually does any actual humanitarian work.
