Hillary University: Bill Clinton Bagged $16.46 Million from For-Profit College as State Dept.
Breitbart ^ | 6/2/16 | Stephen K. Bannon

Posted on 06/02/2016 2:48:08 PM PDT by Nachum

With her campaign sinking in the polls, Hillary Clinton has launched a desperate attack against Trump University to deflect attention away from her deep involvement with a controversial for-profit college that made the Clintons millions, even as the school faced serious legal scrutiny and criminal investigations.

In April 2015, Bill Clinton was forced to abruptly resign from his lucrative perch as honorary chancellor of Laureate Education, a for-profit college company. The reason for Clinton’s immediate departure: Clinton Cash revealed, and Bloomberg confirmed, that Laureate funneled Bill Clinton $16.46 million over five years while Hillary Clinton’s State Dept. pumped at least $55 million to a group run by Laureate’s founder and chairman, Douglas Becker, a man with strong ties to the Clinton Global Initiative. Laureate has donated between $1 million and $5 million (donations are reported in ranges, not exact amounts) to the Clinton Foundation. Progressive billionaire George Soros is also a Laureate financial backer.

As the Washington Post reports, “Laureate has stirred controversy throughout Latin America, where it derives two-thirds of its revenue.” During Bill Clinton’s tenure as Laureate’s chancellor, the school spent over $200 million a year on aggressive telemarketing, flashy Internet banner ads, and billboards designed to lure often unprepared students from impoverished countries to enroll in its for-profit classes. The goal: get as many students, regardless of skill level, signed up and paying tuition.

“I meet people all the time who transfer here when they flunk out elsewhere,” agronomy student Arturo Bisono, 25, told the Post. “This has become the place you go when no one else will accept you.”

They give the foundation one to five million. Then the “school” gives Bill sixteen million.

If these frauds don’t go down for this.....and they probably won’t. GWB’s folks had to have known about this money laundering scheme. And republicans in general knew. Yet nothing was done.

It's OK when Democrats do it.

Remember how Obama, as senator, steered money to the hospital that had hired Michelle, who then bumped up her salary...so a significant portion of the taxpayer money the hospital got was in effect Obama's fee? Her job at the hospital was so essential that once she left to become First Lady the hospital wasn't able to hire a replacement.
