Uh Oh: Largest Donor to Clinton Foundation Has An Iran Problem -- UPDATE: New Bombshells

UPDATE: It looks like Hillary's foreign donations headaches are just beginning. Via the New York Times, oh my:

The book, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times, asserts that foreign entities who made payments to the Clinton Foundation and to Mr. Clinton through high speaking fees received favors from Mrs. Clinton’s State Department in return. “We will see a pattern of financial transactions involving the Clintons that occurred contemporaneous with favorable U.S. policy decisions benefiting those providing the funds,” Mr. Schweizer writes...“Clinton Cash” is potentially more unsettling, both because of its focused reporting and because major news organizations including The Times, The Washington Post and Fox News have exclusive agreements with the author to pursue the story lines found in the book…[Schweitzer] writes mainly in the voice of a neutral journalist and meticulously documents his sources, including tax records and government documents, while leaving little doubt about his view of the Clintons.

-- Original Post --

A new thread emerged over the weekend pertaining to the controversy over the Clinton Foundation's ongoing acceptance of foreign donations throughout Hillary's time at State and during her presidential run. We already know that the organization took large sums of money from foreign governments that were lobbying the US government, and that many of those contributions were not vetted by the Obama administration. Allegations of quid pro quos have surfaced, as have accusations of hypocrisy on women's rights. And now there's this, via Newsweek:

Enemies of Hillary Clinton waiting to discredit her bid for the White House are likely to seize on news that one of the biggest benefactors to the Clinton Foundation has been trading with Iran and may be in breach of US sanctions imposed on the country. (snip)

Clinton Foundation needs all that money to pay Chelsea $600,000 salary a year as a ‘director;.

Meanwhile, Shrillary campaigns against high CEO pay.

I tell ya, she is nothing but a place holder. They are holding out Liawatha until they absolutely have to insert her into the game. She must have some terrible background stuff, aside from the ignorant premises she puts forth now. Hillary! will be damaged goods some day, I just hope it’s soon so we can fight the real fight against the real Media/Democrat’s choice.

Looking at the people surrounding Val. Jarrett I find myself wondering if maybe her serene majesty Moochelle Obama is not the place holder they are training. After all, she is between Jarrett and Obama and would make an excellent pawn in the Marxist/Muslim plan. Black, female,Marxist to the core.And BO would be there as a plus. Just musing.

I think Ted Cruz and Newt have the ability to explain all of this in laymen terms so most everyone can understand it.

“So, at least it’s not from the Koch Brothers.”

That sums it up very clearly.

Too many so called educated people have nary a clue to EITHER "what they're saying" or "what's going on."

This is the segment of society I call the "dim-bulbs."

I suspect there are many problems with donors to the foundations. Feminists and gays won't see them.

She’s a liberal. She’s a democrat. She’s a Clinton.

There is NOTHING, NOTHING ON EARTH, this woman can do that would be a problem for her base.
