UPDATE: It looks like Hillary's foreign donations headaches are just beginning. Via the New York Times, oh my:
The book, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times, asserts that foreign entities who made payments to the Clinton Foundation and to Mr. Clinton through high speaking fees received favors from Mrs. Clinton’s State Department in return. “We will see a pattern of financial transactions involving the Clintons that occurred contemporaneous with favorable U.S. policy decisions benefiting those providing the funds,” Mr. Schweizer writes...“Clinton Cash” is potentially more unsettling, both because of its focused reporting and because major news organizations including The Times, The Washington Post and Fox News have exclusive agreements with the author to pursue the story lines found in the book…[Schweitzer] writes mainly in the voice of a neutral journalist and meticulously documents his sources, including tax records and government documents, while leaving little doubt about his view of the Clintons.
A new thread emerged over the weekend pertaining to the controversy over the Clinton Foundation's ongoing acceptance of foreign donations throughout Hillary's time at State and during her presidential run. We already know that the organization took large sums of money from foreign governments that were lobbying the US government, and that many of those contributions were not vetted by the Obama administration. Allegations of quid pro quos have surfaced, as have accusations of hypocrisy on women's rights. And now there's this, via Newsweek:
Enemies of Hillary Clinton waiting to discredit her bid for the White House are likely to seize on news that one of the biggest benefactors to the Clinton Foundation has been trading with Iran and may be in breach of US sanctions imposed on the country. (snip)

This is something above the understanding of the multitude of HRC supporters. I wish the American people could understand; they can’t.
I tell ya, she is nothing but a place holder. They are holding out Liawatha until they absolutely have to insert her into the game. She must have some terrible background stuff, aside from the ignorant premises she puts forth now. Hillary! will be damaged goods some day, I just hope it’s soon so we can fight the real fight against the real Media/Democrat’s choice.
So... how much did BOKO HARUM donate to the Bill/Hillary/Chelsea Fund ?
I mentioned this to a liberal friend of mine who I talk politics with at work and she said, “So, at least it’s not from the Koch Brothers.” Huh? She has an MBA and is considered a financial whiz at my workplace. Yeah, what a country we’ve become.
Hillary’s response:
Citizens United case. I asked for money (AKA, protected 1A speech) and received money (AKA, protected 1A speech).
At this point, what difference does it make?
Too bad the MSM won’t do a thing about it.
“Its not your night kid. We’re going for the price on the faux Indian. We’ve put something in it for you”. DNC
Val Jar wants to keep her position. Liawatha has promised to do that if elected.
Hillary hasn't and won't. I think Hillary will be withdrawing in six months.
My head just exploded.
You mean the Clintons want lots of money?
I thought they were socialists?
I thought Hillary had Qadaffi ousted so she could turn Libya into a socialist paradise?
Gosh. That means the whole Democrat Party is run by people out to enrich themselves.
In the communist grand scheme...”What Difference Does It Make”
I had a ‘disagreement’ with a Lib friend and pointed out that Tom Steyer had donated MILLIONS more to the Dems and he said ‘who?’. The biased reporting is overwhelming but lots of people are awakening to the fact that the DEMS are the party of MONEY. I am fed up with the ‘evil Koch Brothers’. Didn’t a big NYC hospital return 25 million to the Koch Brothers (to build a new cancer center)because of protests from the Hospital employees? Libs constantly cut off their noses to spite their faces and the MSM keep promoting the news that causes this to happen. What an ignorant/insane country the Libs have created.
Pay for play...
