Newly released emails show that Hillary Clinton’s top State Department adviser, Huma Abedin, granted access to the then-secretary of state during overseas diplomatic visits based upon Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) donor status.
A Dec. 4, 2012 email obtained by Citizens United and shared exclusively with The Daily Caller shows that Paul McElearney, CGI’s head of member development, emailed Abedin asking if he could meet with Hillary Clinton during her trip to Ireland two days later.
Abedin said that she could accommodate McElearney, and he then asked if several other people, including two CGI sponsors, could also meet Clinton. McElearney forwarded four names for Abedin’s consideration.

Still Secretary of State at this time.
Abedin, Cheryl Mills, Billybobo, Hillary, Podesta....the lot of them...... are like prostitutes.
As long as you show them the money, they won’t say “no.”
Defenders claim that the donors did not get something for their money. That is false. What they purchased was ACCESS.
Access is a commodity like anything else.
If an honest person has no hope of meeting with a city mayor, but would be allowed to for a 5000 fee, that is BRIBERY. They are selling meetings.
It isn’t ok and innocent depending on the outcome of the meeting. The bribery occurs when meetings are exchanged for cash!
Is that you Huma?
If she’s on an official diplomatic trip as part of her job, why is she meeting with Clinton Global Initiative people? Isn’t that a conflict of interest?
No doubt they do.
Big difference in Hillary’s case is that she at the time was the US Secretary of State.
As Secretary of State her job is to represent the interest of the United States Government in dealing with foreign powers.
She had no business in peddling her presence for profit. Doing so is a clear conflict of interest. This potential conflict of interest was brought up at her Senate confirmation hearings and she testified that this would not happen.
You might want to try running deeper.
I just sent an email to that AbedinH@State.Gov but it came back undeliverable.
I just asked how much Hillary used to charge for a meeting. And I also asked how if she only performs her duty based upon a payment, to explain how that’s not a bribe.
Guess I’ll never know.
Also, if a Congressman meets with a contributor, that can be legitimate.
But you don’t have to fund raise for an appointed position like Secretary of State. Its straight out bribery.
If it helps, some should think of it as Boeing, Lockheed, Raytheon donating tens of millions to the Secretary of Defense.
For what? His election campaign? Same with Sec of State.
He strayed a bit too close to the surface.
That was Menthops2’s one and only post. He either got Zotted or he posted and ran away.
they were asked to donate $ 5 millon to friends of bush org. so they backed off.
that time he was president (supposedly working for americans) or should I say a corrupt gope president
You are almost right. Where you are a little bit incorrect is there not like prostitutes they are like pimps. Since they are not selling themselves but they are actually selling the US taxpayer and US citizens to the highest bidder. We are the prostitutes and they are The Pimps
I’ll buy that.
