Conservative website Newsmax has pledged a very large donation to the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation, a new report in the Wall Street Journal states.
"Newsmax, a conservative news organization, last year pledged $1 million to the Clinton Foundation over a five-year period, according to a spokesman for Chris Ruddy, the organization’s CEO. Mr. Ruddy has been friends with the Clintons since 2007," reports the Journal.
"Through a spokesman, he said the donation wasn't tantamount to an endorsement of Mrs. Clinton’s potential campaign, though he thinks she would 'make a great presidential candidate.'"
Ruddy himself has even written a blog post for the Clinton Foundation website. The topic? "Public-Private Partnerships Advance Health Care in Mozambique."

Ruddy wrote the book on the death of Vince Foster, used to be on numerous conservative talk shows and now this? What a bunch of crap. Et tu, Brute?

, though he thinks she would 'make a great presidential candidate. oh boy - that's all I need to read
To: tobyhill
What’s the motivation?
I can see where companies have to do this to “insure” against a Clinton presidency.
What benefit does this bestow on Newsmax?
BTW the Obama Foundation will make the Clinton Global Initiative look like pocket change shortly after Jan 2017.

Why didn’t they just slip $999,999.00 into Hillary’s purse?

We need to keep an eye on the Clinton Foundation. It has the potential to be Hillary’s undoing. Follow the money and break the news after Clinton has the Rat nomination.
To: tobyhill
Strange story, certainly angers me. I will have to see if somehow there is an angle to this.

Well, I've been posting Newsmax articles here periodically for years, But NO MORE!
Because of this atrocity, I petition Free Republic's founder to ban all articles from Newsmax.

Sounds true to me and since there’s money involved all you have to do is follow it.

Money changes everything. It appears he has been bought off or is trying to buy someone off, I don't know what to believe, but trust Newsmax again? I would rather kiss a snapping turtle.
