GRAPHIC--The Intercept.com

<><>Clinton/s most lucrative year was 2013, right after stepping down as secretary of state....whereby she co-oped taxpayers, using State Dept information that rightfully belongs to taxpayers in order to profit herself.

<><> That year, Hillary made $2.3 million for three speeches to Goldman Sachs....plus individual speeches to Wall Street players: Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley, Fidelity Investments, Apollo Management Holdings, UBS, Bank of America, and Golden Tree Asset Managers.

<><> The following year, she picked up $485,000 for a speech to Deutsche Bank and an address to Ameriprise.

<><>Last year, she made $150,000 from a lecture before the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce.

BILL CASHES IN The Associated Press notes that during Hillary Clinton’s time as secretary of state, Bill Clinton earned $17 million in talks to banks, insurance companies, hedge funds, real estate businesses, and other financial firms.

Hillary and Goldman Sachs have been BFF.

Then-US Sen Clinton and then-Sen Corzine on the Capitol steps.

EXHIBIT ONE Corzine was fresh out of Goldman Sachs executive suite, buying his NJ Senate seat office for $65 million; then buying the NJ governorship. Out of office, he ran a hedge fund where $1.5 B went missing....that employed both Bill Clinton and then-Secy of State Hillary's top aide Huma Abedin.

EXHIBIT TWO When Chelsea Clinton's husband started a hedge fund, he gained access to investors who had ties to the Clintons and to Goldman Sachs. Back in 2011, Mezvinsky, now 37, and two former Goldman Sachs'ers — Bennett Grau and Mark Mallon — began raising money for Mezvinsky's Eaglevale Partners LP hedge fund.

Some of Mezvinsky's investors included Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein. Wall Street Blankfein, a slavish Democrat supporter, said he had "always been a fan of Hillary Clinton." The WSJ reported extensively on the hedge fund's underperformance since its inception and Mezvinsky's mediocre investing and strategizing.

===========================================

EXHIBIT THREE Then-US Sen Jon Corzine (D-NJ), used his office to pass a special tax exemption for a Japanese bank he owned----his Goldman Sachs crony, Christopher Flowers---adminstrator of Sen Corzine's "blind trust"--- used Corzine's assets to takeover the Japanese bank.

LAUGH BREAK Corzine later said he "did not know" the legislation he sponsored "benefited" him.

================================================

There's a saying in Congress---"One hand washes the other. You vote for my bill; I vote for your bill." Did Hillary vote for Corzine's legislation....giving tax breaks for a Japanese bank Corzine's "blind trust" owned? And what other Wall Street deals did Corzine make w/ Hillary to enrich himself...and her?

"Bernie, I insist you go first."

ROTFLMAO.

Ole BJ and Hill are making up for those times he was only earning $35,000/year as Governor of Arkansas.

Recall that Hillary claimed they were almost in poverty when they left the White House. [She could probably even come up with a photoshopped Food Stamps application, if she thought that would enhance her run for the White House.]

What a difference a few years of giving speeches and having a wife selling perks from the SoS office makes:

Seriously, what could they possibly have to speak about? Nothing. Flat nothing. Especially nothing that’s worth a quarter million. It’s money laundering or pay offs and should be investigated.
