Exclusive — Ted Cruz: Hillary Clinton ‘Embodies The Culture Of Corruption In Washington
Breitbart ^ | 4/24/15 | Matt Boyle

Posted on 04/24/2015 12:45:35 PM PDT by VinL

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), a 2016 GOP presidential candidate, hammered former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, a Democratic presidential candidate, in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News—zeroing in on the new developments of the forthcoming Peter Schweizer “Clinton Cash” book.

“The latest scandal regarding Hillary Clinton is stunning in the breadth of the allegations and at the same time I’m not surprised because it is consistent with a pattern we’ve seen for many decades,” Cruz said.

Hillary Clinton embodies the culture of corruption in Washington, where politicians enrich themselves and expand their own power—Washington only gets more and more powerful—and the lives of hardworking Americans get harder and harder and harder. Of course, Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation should return the money they received from foreign nations particularly when she was Secretary of State.

The idea that the chief diplomatic officer of the United States is open for business and foreign nations, foreign businesses and foreign citizens can write checks for hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars both to her foundation or to her husband for speeches, which goes directly to her personal bank account, reflects a degree of corruption unprecedented in American politics.

Several reports this week have revealed new details about the Clintons’ close proximity to the Uranium One deal—and how Russia has acquired sizable percentages of U.S. uranium mines. It’s all closely connected with Clinton’s Foundation, and her husband’s speaking fees.

“It should not have been done,” Cruz said.

That she thought it was acceptable to effectively be on the payroll of foreign nations while she was ostensibly representing the United States of America reveals just how corrupt the culture in Washington has become. And I’ll make a final point—of course, Senate Democrats are circling the wagons around her. Apparently (snip)

I’m a Texan, and I love Ted Cruz. I’ve met and spoken with him and I believe he’s the real deal. I sent him a nice donation. If more freepers would do the same, he might really have a chance to win this election.

Never have given direct to a candidate and when I saw this headline I decided it was time to change that.

Now, the question is;
"Would he keep this attitude after being elected?"

My answered is that it doesn't matter because there is no one else who has shown that they are completely trustworthy except Walker and he hasn't spoken to the issue yet.

Rubio has altered his opinions more than once, Christy would never, never, never seek legal justice against an establishment celebrity.

I believe he would, and that's the first reason he's got my wholehearted support. It's been a long time since I felt this strongly about a candidate.

The fact that the Washington establishment hates him is nothing but a plus in my book.

I am with you. I would support him in every way and urge him to follow the law and enforce it. I am looking for the opportunity to attend any candidate appearance and get in the question line so I can ask if they would pledge to hold elected officials and appointees to the same laws as the rest of us.

This garbage of people like Lois Lerner simply retiring to avoid prosecution and then becoming a lobbyist to make millions while writing books and doing speeches has to end.

I agree. We've become a third world country in the corruption at all levels of government.

Outstanding!

More than you imagine, the Cruz for President campaign appreciates the tens of thousands of supporters who have likewise responded with contributions of $100 and less.

It's a great time to donate to help them meet the April end-of-month fundraising goal. A good showing is important in the first month that Cruz is competing against other announced candidates. I gave a little extra today towards the April goal. My donations are on "monthly Cruz control" in appreciation for a consistent, trustworthy conservative.

In any rational world, BJ, Hill, and Chels would be in a federal cell with Blago and Jesse Jr.

Given and will keep on giving

The naysayers here can keep on hammering me but I will keep on giving and this attack on this traitor proves I am right.

Where is any of the other candidates on this?

The man who pandered to the Iowa voters by supporting the Renewable Fuel Standard, reversing his earlier stance against it?

He is completely trustworthy?
