Hillary played favorites with huge number of Clinton Foundation donors
The New York Post ^ | August 11, 2016 | By Daniel Halper and Bob Fredericks

The shady Lebanese-Nigerian businessman who got Hillary Clinton’s State Department to arrange a high-level meeting was only one of a dizzying number of big ­donors to the Clinton Foundation to score government favors.

The list includes high rollers whose relationships with the Clintons made them even richer; countries with dubious human-rights records; and companies looking to grease the skids to get an edge on the competition.

Frank Giustra, a billionaire mining magnate from Vancouver, pledged $100 million to the foundation in 2005 — and then reaped a fortune from the relationship.

A good read of the extensive shady deals made between the Clinton Foundation, Hillary! and companies and rogue governments throughout the world.

Great find. Needs wide circulation. Hopefully “crooked Hillary’s” Clinton Foundation’s crimes will get DJT’s attention and maybe even a “chart” since we know he is now into charts......

We know the MSM won’t give it the time of day.

Fox will. CNN kind of did today. The problem really is that the issue is above the heads of a lot of the voting public.

You’re right. I will listen to what Fox News has to say but not holding my breath - except for Hannity - he will talk about it. I am amazed that CNN would even touch it.

Thanks again for the post.

Clinton’s pay-to-play activities was mentioned at Trump’s Ft. Lauderdale rally Wednesday night.

“In one case, State approved a huge increase in arms shipments to Algeria, even though the department’s own 2011 human-rights report blasted the country for “arbitrary killing,” “widespread corruption” and a “lack of judicial independence.”

The Algerian government that same year donated $500,000 to the Clinton Foundation.

A year later, State approved a 70 percent jump in military exports to the country, including “chemical agents, biological agents and associated equipment.” “

Just this ONE tidbit makes me want to throw up.

Very glad to hear that! I haven’t had a chance to listen to all of the rally yet - but will do so soon....(a late nighter already).

Rudy was on FOX - did a great take on the pay-to-play situation. Would have opened a RICO investigation on the Clinton Foundation if he still had been a prosecutor.

Agree! So much of all of this is above the heads of many of the voters...and most of the Democrat voters.

A lot more will have to be found on Hillary, and it will have to stick. The final straw will have to be simple to understand in order for the Democrat voters to be swayed.

FOX starts out the shows with anything that can be blamed on Trump, and the angle is the same as the other Networks. Yeah, they’ll place these stories in lesser places in the broadcast and Juan Williams and Dana Perino will twist it as Rove says both parties do it.

Corruption was always the primary consideration (Nixon was despised by a generation) until now - now it means nothing. They need to elect their Crooked Hillary.

That’s why political races are so expensive - when you sell to the highest bidder.

Didn’t the DOJ go after ex-VA governor Bob McDonnell because his office was in contact w/someone who gave him a watch?

I don’t remember the facts of the case well but as I recollect it, it was pretty trivial compared to what goes on w/the Clintons.

Did my own research - here’s a nice summary of the McDonnell case, including what made them go after him. Trivial compared to Clintons.

The scale is too large to prosecute the chick at this time due to the vast amounts of individuals, countries, “corporations” etc... attached to the pay-to-play scheme. The foundation is just an attachment to a larger problem (Hence probably too “toxic”) that has probably been going on well before the Clintons achieved Federal “success”.

It doesn’t matter. Not enough people care any more.
