The Clinton Foundation Is Dead — But The Case Against Hillary Isn't
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 1/19/2017 | staff

In a tax filing, the Clinton Global Initiative said it's firing 22 staffers and closing its offices, a result of the gusher of foreign money that kept the foundation afloat suddenly drying up after Hillary Clinton failed to win the presidency.

It proves what we've said all along: The Clinton Foundation was little more than an influence-peddling scheme to enrich the Clintons, and had little if anything to do with "charity," either overseas or in the U.S. That sound you heard starting in November was checkbooks being snapped shut in offices around the world by people who had hoped their donations would buy access to the next president of the United States.

In November, we asked the question: "Is The Clinton Foundation Doomed?" The answer is yes. All the way back in May, we outlined how the Clinton Foundation had taken in $100 million from a collection of Gulf sheikhs and billionaires, along with millions from private businesses, who expected — and received — special access to the State Department's top official, Hillary.

In his 2015 book "Clinton Cash," author Peter Schweizer showed how during Hillary's years in government "the Clintons have conducted or facilitated hundreds of large transactions (either as private citizens or government officials) with foreign governments, corporations and private financiers." He called the sums going to the Clintons "staggering."

Does anyone know where Shrillary’s passport is? She has access to private planes to skip the country.

So all the generous donors to the ever generous CGI stopped giving money to the poor children of the world when the Clintons were no longer in a position of power to provide favors. What more does anyone need to show the CGI for what it is-graft, corruption, and a sellout of American interests to foreign governments. Individuals need to be held accountable for this treachery.

There is still a lot of money in the foundation. What will happen to it?

“Apparently the Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative are not exactly the same thing. The Clinton Foundation has not closed down.”

They have a network of dozens of organizations, spread across many countries, most are just shells to take advantage of local tax laws, and for laundering money.

With rare exception, monarchs were immune from prosecution. However, their underlings and hangers-on were not. Today, not only are certain presidents immune, so are their assistants, and assistants to assistants.

Obama and Hillary cannot afford to see Huma, Mills, or even Hillary's IT guy, Pagliano (sp?) face a grand jury.

OH no, the Potemkin charity of the Clinton Foundation was built on the promise of political power.

Say it isn’t so. I am so disappointed in them.
