... There doesn’t have to be smoke to give the appearance of fire at the Clinton Foundation. The sprawling charity has sucked in so much cash from so many sources that, with some creativity, it can be tied to virtually any skulduggery.
Alleged wrongdoing at FIFA? There’s a Clinton tie. International arms dealers? The Kremlin? Uranium production? Human rights violators? Known felons? All can be connected to the Clintons.
At a time when Democrats need to draw contrasts with Republicans by sticking up for the little guy, Clinton’s solicitation of — and favors for — the powerful make her an inauthentic messenger.
As The Post has documented, the Clintons’ charitable efforts have been closely tied to the considerable fortune they amassed for themselves. Bill Clinton was paid at least $26 million in speaking fees by entities that were major donors to the foundation. The foundation has also been good for the balance sheets of Clinton friends such as Sidney Blumenthal, who received about $10,000 a month from the foundation while providing his thoughts on Libya to then-Secretary Clinton.
The Clintons’ defenders will say none of this is illegal, and that may be so. The problem is appearance. Clinton can talk all she wants about income inequality and reducing the influence of money in politics, but her recent experience makes her seem insincere.

Sen. Cruz should take the wind from Liz Warren’s sails by taking the crony capitalist issue from her. His first target should be the low-hanging fruit: Hillary Clinton.
The Wash/Post reports Hillary earned $11.7 million for 51 speeches since Jan 2014.....she pocketed an astonishing $625,000 for two speeches in one day!
==================================================
But the calculated Clintons have also sought to branch out into other business activities......though little is known about the exact nature and financial worth of Bill Clinton’s non-speech business interests.
Recent reports indicate the Clintons were party to multi-billion dollar Mideast arms deals....Kazakhstan uranium mines....and Haitian gold mines...oil pipelines...and other lucrative business interests which they cunningly intertwine w/ their Foundation do-good activities.
Clinton made a big show of do-goodism in earthquake-ravaged Haiti. And Secy Hillary supposedly gave $billions of tax dollars to Haiti.

But Haitian-American protesters outside the Clinton Foundation claim that American aid to Haiti was a cover-for foreign governments to funnel kickbacks of hundreds of millions of dollars to The Clinton Foundation.
For example, gold expert Giustra "gave" the Foundation $100 million....after Bill helped him make billions off uranium deals. Hillary's brother mysteriously got a gold mining license in Haiti.
Donating $100 million, and more, Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra is apparently one of the Clinton Foundation’largest donors. Giustra's contributions go directly (1) to the tax-exempt Clinton Foundation, and, (2) to the Canada-based "Clinton-Giustra Enterprise Partnership," which in turn sends money to the Clinton Foundation......(according to Canadian tax records researched by "Clinton Cash" author Schweizer).

=================================================
It's next to impossible to believe Obama knows nothing about the Clintons' buck-raking activities.
Remember she dropped out of the primary so he could forge ahead. A deal was made...undisclosed to the electorate.
Looks to me like they divided up the US govt. She got the State Dept.
Hillary ran it like a shadow govt. Bill trotted the globe acting like a "good will" ambassador.....he devised hundreds of obscure programs to collect billions.....supposedly dispersed to "aid" endless "do-good" projects.
Obama's protecting the Clintons---they're his meal ticket.
All of them are living happily ever after--getting rich on "tolerance and compassion."
Obama gets a cut of every deal the Clintons make.
=====================================================
All of these people have vast hidden holdings:
(1) The missing State Dept $6 billion, (2) the cut of Hillary's brother's Haitian gold mine permit, (3) the gold Obama and Hillary got from invading Quadaffi; (4) the Russian uranium deal income.
And money secreted in (1) numbered offshore bank accounts,(2) investment holdings, (3) safety deposit boxes holding coins, gold, valuables, etc, (4) other holdings in real estate, businesses, (5) passive non-taxable income from rentals, interest accrued, investments, etc .....
Too corrupt to fail.
1) If the Clinton Foundation were viewed as a corporation and not a charity, have they not violated Sarbannes-Oxley?
2) Is prosecution under S-Ox limited only to corporations and the employees of such corporations?
3) If the answer to 2 is "no" who has legal authority to take the case to a Grand Jury or to file charges? Does it have to be the Dept. of Just Us?
Very good questions in a very good thread.
I am soooo sick of Hillary Clinton and her husband. And we are still a year and a half away from the election. It’s depressing.
“but her recent experience makes her seem insincere.”
No way! /s
Did the Clinton outfit
ever keep money in
offshore banks accounts?
