Emails reveal how foundation donors got access to Clinton and her close aides at State Dept.
Washington Post ^ | Aug. 22, 2016 | Rosalind S. Helderman, Spencer S. Hsu and Tom Hamburger

...But the exchanges, among 725 pages of correspondence from Abedin disclosed as part of a lawsuit by the conservative group Judicial Watch, illustrate the way the Clintons’ international network of friends and donors was able to get access to Hillary Clinton and her inner circle during her tenure running the State Department.

The release of the correspondence follows previous disclosures of internal emails showing a similar pattern of access for foundation contributors, and it comes as Republicans allege that Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee, used her perch in the Obama administration to trade favors for donations. Clinton and the foundation have vigorously denied the charge.

Judicial Watch said Monday’s release from Abedin’s inbox included 20 previously undisclosed exchanges with Clinton that were not included in the approximately 55,000 pages of correspondence the former secretary gave to State. Also Monday, the State Department said the FBI had turned over nearly 15,000 emails and other documents that investigators discovered during a probe of Clinton’s email setup that she had not previously returned to State.

The Sultan of Brunei had to make a donation to the Clinton Foundation to make an appointment with Hillary Clinton?

A person has to make a donation to meet with a State Department Employee

This is fascism speeding the highway ladies and gentlemen. The politician is above the law, no matter how serious the crime. The politician has a national propaganda network that obscures the truth while viciously attacking her opponents. The politician is able to enrich herself with ridiculous amounts of money donated for the poor without any consequence.

Now imagine what it will be like when she is President and she has the supreme court loaded with lefties.

How did we become a country that has criminals in charge and yet, around 50% still support the criminals?? We used to care about the LAW. If Hillary is able to cheat her way back into the WH, this country is toast.

Not hard to figure out at all.

They are trying to get this all out so at the debates Hillary can say this has been asked and answered. They want to use these emails as the ones Comey said she was reckless with.

So we find out that the CEO of Peabody Coal(the largest coal company in America) was trying to get a meeting after being extorted to make contributions. The SEC might want to get involved also.

“couple of hundred grand”

Clinton Corruption is way past a couple hundred grand. For a couple hundred grand you have to actually sit a listen to a speech. For 100 million you can own uranium mineral rights.

Trump is the only person this year that had a chance of beating the corruption. This government is so far gone, we have to defeat the rigged voting machines.

I don’t think she is going to be on the ballot come November. A deal was made to prevent charges against her and Bill. She stays in the race only as a decoy, withdraws in mid September. Very little time, and money left, for the Republicans to effectively campaign against whoever the dems decide to prop up in her place.
