When Bill Clinton was at the height of the Monica Lewinsky sex scandal, Hollywood was by his side, offering donations for his legal fees, and one significant donor was a man who is now going through his own sex scandal—Harvey Weinstein.

Billionaire Harvey Weinstein raised $1,422,683 for federal candidates and political entities between 1990-2016. That’s small potatoes for his 27 years of rank Democratism, sucking up to feminism and upholding so-called abortion rights as he rampaged and assaulted young women. Adds up to about $5300 a year. Something tells me there are a lot of cash payments off-the-record being paid. (hat tip outpostinmass2)

Crunching the numbers as outpost did does give us a sharper look at the political money game as played by the conniving Clintons.

Harvey also gave a bundle to the nefarious tax-exempt Clinton Foundation and perhaps to offshoots of the Clintons tax-free entities.

Did Harvey's donations to the C/F go to "do-good projects"? Or did they make a circuitous route? Maybe landing back into the Clintons eternal political scams?

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

The Weinstein Company's remaining board members Ben Ammar, Lance Maerov told the Financial Times they were aware of Weinstein's alleged sexual assualt of Italian model Ambra Battilana Gutierrez in 2015, and had tried to remove him from the company.

Nor was this their first attempt to get rid of him: in 2014, they reportedly called for an investigation into possible "financial impropriety" by the producer, but were quashed by Weinstein's lawyers. At the time, the producer's contract stated that he could only be fired if he was convicted of a felony, a clause that remained in place until his contract was amended late in 2015.

It seems that Harvey is not a billionaire, or even close.

EXCLUSIVE: Is Harvey Weinstein BROKE? Movie mogul borrowed $4 million from crisis loan firm - and slashed $1 million from Hamptons estate price then sold his mom’s house for $600,000 discount

Harvey Weinstein’s personal finances may be far more shaky than had been thought

DailyMail.com finds evidence he took out an $4 million mortgage from a crisis loan company on his Greenwich Village townhouse earlier this year

He turned to crisis loan company for the cash advance despite having a $6 million mortgage already on home worth estimated $12.5 million

His total personal mortgage borrowings are now at least $15.5 million, which at the average mortgage rate would cost him $71,000 a month

Weinstein is also hawking his most valuable property, an estate in the Hamptons which he and wife Georgina Chapman bought in 2012, slashing the price from $13.5 million to $12.8 million

And he sold his mother’s home in Westport, Connecticut, for $1.65 million just two days before the story of his sex shame broke - having cut the price by $600,000 to seal a deal
