Hillary Clinton received a pointed question during the final debate that echoed a criticism she has faced for months: Was her family's global charity a "pay-to-play" arrangement in which donors got special favors from her State Department?
She did not initially respond with a direct yes or no.
"Well, everything I did as secretary of state was in furtherance of our country's interests and our values," she said as she went on to list a number of Clinton Foundation achievements such as distributing HIV medication.
When moderator Chris Wallace asked her again, Clinton responded that "there's no evidence" - but was cut off as Wallace turned to Republican nominee Donald Trump, who railed against the foundation for taking money from foreign countries hostile to women and gays.
"It's a criminal enterprise," Trump said, adding later: "Why don't you give back the money?"

Bitch is guilty as charged.
Is something finally going to stick to the Teflon Witch?
That a woman who has been politically active, all her entire adult life, among a people with the most successful history of economic achievement over their first century and a quarter, of any people on earth, under a Constitutional Government designed to protect that people from a bureaucratic pestilence, which has been the bain of most nations; that such a woman has so missed the essential point of the American achievement, is staggering in its implications.
Mrs. Clinton claimed that a Clinton Government woujld rebuild the "Middle Class." Was she tottally unaware that the American Middle Class clearly built itself? That the American Middle Class resulted from naturally energized individuals, aspiring to achieve the good life, who risked everything to first clear a wilderness, work hard, generation to generation, to save & accumulate the attributes of the good life; with the result that by 1913--the year that a graduated income tax first became Constitutional, this Settler built Federation of newly settled States, had already surpassed every one of the great powers of Europe in industrial strength.
To "rebuild" the "Middle Class," Mrs. Clinton vowed to make the most successful Americans--those who had achieved the most-- pay increased taxes; she called it "paying their 'fair' share." But it was clearly to be a tax on success--a tax to fund a raft of new programs (a cancer or pestilence of an expanded bureaucracy). She was obviously indifferent to the fact that the biggest impediment to any poor person with ambition, actually launching a small business to improve his status, is an almost incomprehensible explosion in bureaucratic regulations, most of which premised on the same flawed understanding of how people actually advance, which Mrs. Clinton displayed, last night.
Americans used to learn by experience. What were the experience based lessons of what transpired from the drafting of our written Constitution in 1787, until the passage of the income tax amendment in 1913? Are they instructive or not, for what actually works for human advancement?
The Constitution prior to 1913, absolutely interdicted a tax driven war on the accumulation of individual wealth. Article I, Section 9, which Mrs. Clinton should have remembered from Law School, provided that no direct tax on individual Americans could be applied in any way but pro-capita. (That is Warren Buffet would pay the same tax--not the same percentage tax--but the same tax as Joe the Plumber. The Founders had no desire to limit individual success. They sought only to encourage it.
Under there experience based philosophy, there were almost certainly not even 1% of the bureaucratic regulations, with which Americans seeking to improve their lot, must face today. In place of today's pursuit of grievances, real or imagined, there was universal admiration for the high achievers! And the growth rate of a people freed to achieve, was the economic phenomenon of human history.
We do not pretend to know whether it was in her indoctrination by Marxist Pied Pipers, in her late teens, or pure confusion in whatever she is struggling with today. But Mrs. Clinton is utterly clueless on how a dynamic economy works; as she is utterly unaware of the dynamic, interactive factors, that drive or stagnate any human aspiration or achievement. What is absolutely clear, even if one ignores her lack of a moral compass in her political dealings; the woman is absolutely unqualified to be President of the United States.
This is one more reason why we must win this election for Donald Trump.

I can’t believe the Tribune printed this.
THIS should be front page news across the country!!
I already sent the Moracco thing to CNN and all the alphabets as well as a few reporters from Breitbart that i’ve met on twitter.
Seperate Huma from Hillary and she will fold.
Hopefully, the jury will find her guilty on election day.
Remember “pay to play” is just a nice sounding name for bribery. And she never denied it.
Marxists are utterly clueless about how wealth is actually created in the conditions of a free country with a rational government. Hint: it is not created by punishing the rich.

Former Secy of State Hillary Clinton shakes hands with Morocco's
Foreign Minister Saad Eddine Othmani in Rabat Feb 26, 2012.
Former US president Bill Clinton, on a private visit to Morocco, was received in the Rabat royal palace by HM King Mohammed VI.
ABC News reported in may 6, 2015 that ex-president Bill Clinton and the Clinton Foundations Global Initiative were being hosted at a five-star luxury hotel in Morocco by one of the world's most controversial mining companies, criticized for "serious human rights violations" by the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice.
The Moroccan government-owned mining company OCP operates in disputed international territory in a remote part of the Saharan Desert and the firm has been criticized for removing the resources without adequately compensating the impoverished people who live there.
Any time the human rights of a population are systematically suppressed in this type of way it's a serious concern, and I think it's worthy of attention, said David McKean, who has studied the issue for the RFK center.
OCP mining paid $1 million to help host the event and throw a private cocktail reception, to the dismay of human rights activists.

=========================================
In 2008, the US State Dept's Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) commenced a five-year, $697.5 million compact with the Kingdom of Morocco to reduce poverty and stimulate economic growth.
The State Dept's MCC compact invests in expansion of fruit tree agriculture (including olives, nuts, and dates), support for small-scale fisheries and fish- markets, enhancement of the artisanal sector in the city of Fes, and training for small-scale businesses across all these sectors,
.........with an emphasis on training for women and youth including literacy training.
UPDATE In 2016, Mr O gave Mrs O $100 million tax dollars from the State Dept's Millennium Challenge Corporation on her visit to Morocco for the purpose of "teaching Muslim girls"...... the 100 million to be administered by the post-presidency tax-exempt Obama Foundation.
Michele, her daughters and her mother in Morocco's palace.
Yes! The problem is people trying to fit moronically square pins into intellectually round sockets, and it simply can never work, because it denies almost every aspect of real life.
She sounds and looks so guilty.
And what gives with that creepy smile, that was chilling.
What, the mining company doesn’t provide jobs for the locals? I don’t believe it.
The Sickly Sow ignores the questions it doesn’t like.
Its fawning servants (AKA MSM) are none to happy to behave likewise.
America is taking notice, and the aroma of Roast Piggy is wafting in the political breeze already.
The Clinton defenders and the Clintons always fall back on “there is no evidence” or “there is no proof” of criminal or unethical actions.
Of course not. Criminals do their best to cover their crimes by leaving no direct evidence of their crimes. They try to have “cut-outs” or third parties involved to protect them. That’s what they do. And that’s why the RICO law became the principal way to attack the leadership of the Mafia.
Criminals are often convicted by circumstantial evidence which can be even more compelling.
