That was very thoughtful of the sheikhs to help out their friends, Bile and Madam Clinton, who were "destitute" when they left the White House...

By “independent” she means “independent of the will of the US electorate or of the United States’ national interest.”

Actually, as i recall, they did need a co signer (Terry McCaullif) to buy their first ever personal house. All the more astounding to see how much they have amassed since their time in “public service”.

THIS IS A MAJOR SCANDAL. The Mideast policy of Secretary of State Clinton favored them over established leaders of Libya, Syria, Egypt, and still takes their side against the Kurds and in Iraq. Chaos in the Mideast and northern Africa, now destroying Europe, is the construct of the bought and paid for Clintons!

Isn't this the "smoking gun"?

Stop trying to divert the news cycle away from the real story with this piddling drivel.

Donald Trump is delaying the release of his tax returns. /s

Prior to 2008 anyone with half a brain would realize anytime a foreign government or individual donates money like that it’s a payoff. No one donates money like that without a carrot dangling. My guess is the Islamists need to send more foot soldiers over here for the takeover and know Trump will not be accommodating.

In government and in industry, there's a gift/bribe rule that anything over a nominal amount -- $50 or $100, I think -- can't be accepted, because it might be considered a bribe. Even an elaborate dinner is off-limits in many situations.

I'm sure Bill and Hil are well aware of the "avoiding even the appearance of impropriety" standard. This is so far out of line, so bold, I can't imagine we don't hear about it 24/7.

Ya think maybe Donald will bring it up?

I’m ever so sure the Clintons received MORE than a hundred million... OR they were selling out the dead bodies of our soldiers on the cheap.

Try $2 billion.

At first glance, the Clintons astounding honoraria and humongous Foundation donations seem to provide the bulk of the couples mega income. Bills honoraria increased dramatically pocketing some $50 million during Hillarys four-year term as Secretary of State....including an Irish scholarship fund, a Korean conglomerate, and, a Nigerian newspaper company......each of whom paid Clinton more than half a million dollars for a single speech. The Wash/Post reports Hillary earned $11.7 million for 51 speeches since Jan 2014.....she pocketed an astonishing $625,000 for two speeches in one day.

===============================================

I firmly believe the Clinton Foundations gigantic donor list, and their astonishing blizzard of speaking honoraria, are a smoke screen for their secret wealth....and the way they make billions sub rosa....intertwining their vaunted do-goodism and their multiple tax-paid public offices.

The calculated Clintons have sought to branch out into other business activities. All of that is kept under wraps. Very little is known about the exact nature and financial worth of Bill and Hillarys non-speech business interests.

Reports keep surfacing indicating the Clintons were party to multi/billion dollar Mideast arms deals....Kazakhstan uranium mines....and Haitian gold mines...Libyan oil deals....telecom businesses, deals w/ financial powerhouses like Teneo, Goldman Sachs.....etc etc etc.

THE CON ARTIST CLINTONS GRABBED EVERYTHNG THAT WASNT NAILED DOWN Lucrative business interests were cunningly intertwined w/ the Foundations transparent do-good activities....enabled by Hillarys catbird seat at the State Dept.

At last count, the Clintons apparently raised an astounding $2 billion from their foundation activities and their political campaigns.....

.....does not include monies flowing in from the various lucrative business ventures, interest accrued, safe deposit boxes, real estate assets, passive income on which they pay no taxes, income from Chelseas hubbys hedge fund, monies invested in Goldman Sachs, interest in financial powerhouse Teneo..... etc etc etc.......

The Clintons are worth a bundle.....accumulated in record time. Their livelihood was collected as they marched through American politics. They co-opted taxpayers by using OUR govt and information they were privy to by virtue of govt office in order to pocket big bucks.

=================================================

Wall Street whistleblower Charles Ortel quoted a former managing director of Dillon, Read & Co thusly: "under New York law, tax authorities dont have to show criminal intent to get convictions against foundation officials."

THE MONEY QUOTE: Authorities need only show that the Clinton Foundation filed materially misleading financial information but kept on fundraising for a myriad of do-good projects.

=========================================

POSTER'S NOTE The legal culpability of a tax-free "charity" consists of:

<><> soliciting and taking money, and,

<><> showing how they spend it.

So if the Clinton Foundation raised money using the US mails and cited a specific "do-good cause" but used the donated money elsewhere, that is considered mail fraud.

REPORT MAIL FRAUD HERE: https://postalinspectors.uspis.gov/contactUs/filecomplaint.aspx

=================================

Earlier, Ortel found irregularities of a sufficient magnitude that the Clinton Foundation should be shut down.

Ortel: if any of the 50 state attorneys general present the evidence to a federal district judge, an injunction would be ordered, shutting down the Clinton Foundation and placing the organization in receivership.

But lets talk about bathrooms instead (or allow Romney to change the topic like he did yesterday after the media was starting to put its attention to Juanita Broaddrick and other sexual assaults... Mitt’s plan is to change the topic anytime the media is trying to expose the Clintons)

"Was that wrong? Had I known that something that *everyone does* was wrong, I, well, probably would have gone ahead and done it. It ought to be completely legal, and after all, we were flat broke when we left the White House in 2001, and we also deserve to have more, since we've done so much for this country, and the Citizen United decision undermines democracy anyway, so what difference does it make?"

Footnote:

Does anyone think the Clintons were the only ones to receive this kind of foreign largess? How about the Bush family? Or a few others that could be named?
