Hillary Clinton Paid by Jeb Bush's Education Company - The Intercept

It's all so cozy: a company partially-owned by Jeb Bush paid Hillary Clinton $225,500 for a speech last year.

I’ll bet Hlllary never paid one dime’s worth of income tax on it. Show me a copy of the check....probably to CGI or something.

“Jeb Bush has a small ownership stake.”

Compare that to the headline.

Wouldn't pay the woman $225 for any speech that she was able to deliver--even if she switched sides! This argues strongly against the business sense of those running the "Education Company," involved. They are certainly not qualified to have a say in fiscal policy.

Nope. No UniParty here. Just keep believing the media spin about Right vs. Left and go back to sleep.

these DC insiders using “speaking fees” to pay each other outlandish amounts of money sure does remind me of the antics of former democRAT speaker Jim Wright and the way he skirted house ethics rules some 20-odd years ago.

i honestly can’t conceive of any company paying somebody $225K to give a 1-2 hour speech and NOT expecting there to be some sort of quid pro quo involved.
