Full title: Bill Clinton's speaking fees draw new attention as they line up with actions his wife's State Department took between 2009 and 2013
At least two dozen different companies, groups or foreign governments paid former President Bill Clinton hundreds of thousands of dollars in speaking fees at the same time that they had issues pending with the State Department that was being run by his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, alleges a new report this week.
More than $8 million was eventually paid out to the former president - and 15 of the organizations also donated as much as $15 million to the family's charity, The Clinton Foundation, according to the report published Wednesday in The Wall Street Journal.

(I'd rather do just about anything than drive on New Year's eve. Too many drunks behind the wheel.)
For the list.

Ah....the QUID for the PRO QUO. These two are too stupid - and criminal - to be in the White House.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
I saw this mentioned on ‘Outnumbered’ on FOX today. Glad it has been uncovered.
Corrupt to the core .. both of them!
Pieces of shit. Both of them and their demon spawn as well.

That's the part that got me to ROTFLMAO.
Jimmy Carter did the same thing and Clinton copied it. These abused of the American nonprofit corporation laws where both Carter and Clinton have broken the law and dodged taxes should land both Carter and his family and Clinton and his family in JAIL!
The book “Clinton Cash” by Peter Schweizer had disturbing facts about Clinton and how they made money.
I have a suggestion for a New Year's Resolution-- how about everyone resolving (first of all ) to keep circulating this info every way possible and

I read the dead-tree WSJ. I was delighted to see the piece on the front paged. It follows naturally from a Kimberly Strassell op-ed piece of a month ago. And also from a book I read, Clinton Cash. That is, they all are hung up on the issue of a quid pro quo. Yet, according toI do not see that any quid pro quo is necessary for the “Clinton Cash” to represent a serious, even actionable, scandal. Just getting paid or given, or otherwise put in control of, serious money by a foreign government while on the government payroll is entirely sufficient to make me think that the acceptance of the money was illegitimate. Banning such, “of any kind whatever,” was not written to allow room for money laundering schemes.

- No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States: and no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state
I wonder if someone could sue to force Hillary to give the money back?
How is it even possible for decent, honorable people to compete against these corrupt vermin?
One cannot be moral and have access to the stratospheric levels of cash necessary to ...oh never mind the rant.
Happy New Year!
So now we get to add collusion to the list of her crimes ..??????????
This would be a huge story IF it was about a Republican...
The New York Times would flood the zone - be on it like white on rice...
Ah....the QUID for the PRO QUO. These two are too stupid - and criminal - to be in the White House.
