Oh-oh! Donations plunge to Clinton Foundation as Hillary speech money dries up
American Thinker ^ | 11/20/2016 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 11/21/2016 8:31:28 AM PST by SeekAndFind

Even before her defeat for the presidency, Hillary Clinton’s departure from the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation crippled its fundraising for that “good work” we have repeatedly been assured the foundation does.  Like hiring members of the Clinton machine to plot...Chelsea’s rise as a candidate for Congress.

Khaleda Raman reports for the U.K. Daily Mail:

Donations to the Clinton Foundation plummeted amid Hillary Clinton's failed presidential run, it has been revealed.

The non-profit organization's latest tax filings show contributions fell 37 per cent to $108million - down from $172million in 2014, according to the New York Post.

Donations fell as the former Secretary of State left the group in April last year shortly after announcing her run for the White House.

Her departure also meant that revenue brought in from paid speeches plunged from $3.6million in 2014 to just $357,500.

Why, it’s almost enough to make you believe that Hillary’s speeches weren’t about wonderfully entertaining and enlightening presentations at all, but rather about bribing a future president.

While many donors may want their prior donations back.

In cash, or, if needed, in-kind.

None of this includes the impact of her disastrous loss. It will be worse next year.

We’ll believe these stories of the poor, pitiful Clintons when we see them selling Bill’s shorts for milk and egg money.

Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.

I believe in an immutable and universal law of sowing and reaping and believe the clinton crime cabal just might be in for some difficult times. I pray that God will break the yoke of totalitarian liberalism off the necks of good Americans. We've put up with this evil for 50 years.

This is why President Trump needs to appoint her as an Ambassador to Haiti or Libya or Syria.

And those numbers are all from before she lost. Guess she will just have to find a way to eek her way through life on the $200 million in bribes she was able to coerce before the spigot turned off.

You get what you pay for, in this case, a fraud.

The gig is up.

All cons are temporary. You get in, get the dough and disappear before they catch on...unless hubris keeps you out there in the open where they can find you.

Anyone who donates to the Clinton foundation deserves whatever he gets—and more.

As for Hillary, she’s still got many billions stashed away in Swiss banks and elsewhere. She’ll live the good life as long as she lasts, unless they throw her in jail.

She should be appointed as a full time undercover inspector of the maximum security federal prison in Colorado.

No more promise of selling out America, therefore, no more gravy train.

Dear Friends:

I have the distinguished honor of being a member of the Committee to raise $50,000,000 for a monument to Hillary R. Clinton. We originally wanted to put her on Mt. Rushmore until we discovered there was not enough room for her two faces.

We then decided to erect a statue of Hillary in the Washington, D.C. Hall of Fame.

We were in a quandary as to where the statue should be placed.

It was not proper to place it beside the statue of George Washington, who never told a lie, or beside Barack Hussein Obama, who never told the truth, since Hillary could never tell the difference.

We finally decided to place it beside Christopher Columbus, the greatest Democrat of them all. He left not knowing where he was going, and when he got there he did not know where he was. He returned not knowing where he had been, and did it all on someone else’s money.

Thank you,

Hillary R. Clinton Monument Committee

P.S. The Committee has raised $2.16 so far.

People such as James Carville tell us that people would die without the Clinton foundation.

For all the great charity work the Clintons supposedly do, there is scent evidence of their good works to be found. They never highlight what their efforts have brought about.

Not one word was said at Hillary’s convention about the Clinton foundation. If their charitable works were so wonderful and so obvious, wouldn’t at least one, just one, speaker at that convention, have said something about the Clinton’s work, about Hillary’s big heart, etc??????

Bill’s undies are worth $2 according to their tax returns.
