Bill Clinton to Foundation Donors: I Feel Your Pain (begging $$ after scandal scares donors away)
Daily Beast ^ | May 29, 2015 | David Freedlander

Posted on 05/31/2015 8:03:11 AM PDT by Zakeet

Bill Clinton has a message to all those autocrats, petro-billionaires, compromised television journalists, and corporate titans who have been tied to a series of devastating exposes about the Clinton Foundation and its finances: I feel your pain. And we still need your money.

[Snip]

At times, the letter reads like a Clinton State of the Union speech of old, with him citing example after example of people who have been helped by the foundation’s work. One can almost imagine the “smallholder farmers in Africa” or the “women entrepreneurs in Latin America” or Wazia Chawala, a farmer and single mother in Tanzania participating in the Clinton Development Initiative’s Anchor Farm program standing up on the House balcony to receive applause.

Proof to me the big money is about to go elsewhere. I think the Clintons are becoming toxic to the wealthy leftists.

Bill and Hillary need to rake in the cash now.

When Hillary losers NOT ONE ARAB HELLHOLE will give them a dime for ‘a speech’ or whatever ‘legal bribes’ are called by the friggin’ elites....

Oh - and without legal ‘kickbacks’ from Africa those tyrants won’t ‘give’ either.

At first glance, the Clinton’s lucrative speeches and ungodly Foundation donations seem to provide the bulk of the couple’s income. Bill's honoraria increased dramatically---earning some $50 million during Hillary's four-year term as secretary of State....including an Irish scholarship fund, a Korean conglomerate, and, a Nigerian newspaper company......each of whom paid Clinton more than half a million dollars for a single speech.

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!

I firmly believe the Clinton Foundation's gigantic donor list, and their astonishing blizzard of speaking honoraria, are a smoke screen for their secret wealth----and the way they make billions sub rosa---intertwining their vaunted "charity" work w/ the perks and privileges of public office.

The calculated Clintons have sought to branch out into other business activities......though little is known about the exact nature and financial worth of Bill and Hillary’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...

THE CON ARTISTS SOLD EVERYTHNG THAT WASNT NAILED DOWN---Lucrative business interests were cunningly intertwined w/ their Foundation's "do-good" activities....and enabled by Hillary's catbird seat at the State Dept.

===============================================

TAXPAYERS DEMAND LAWS WHICH BAN ELECTED AND APPOINTED OFFICIALS FROM FORMING FOUNDATIONS THAT SELL OUT AMERICAN INTERESTS---Obama's still in office and has two Foundations (that we know of)---ready to cash-in like the Clintons.

Looking at the astonishing list of thousands upon thousands of Foundation donors ---one wonders how the Clintons knew seemingly obscure groups had tons of money....AND....how they got them to part w/ it.

Seems rather odd that they could "just know" who to solicit.....without having access to the global reach of the US intel apparat.

Did the Clinton Coven inside the State Dept use stolen top-secret FBI or CIA files for the Clinton Foundation's astonishing profitable fund-raising operation?

NOTE TO THE FBI AND CIA Just a reminder. Having the intel is one thing....but profiting from it is a big no-no.

Did the foundation or another group give them a larger amount of money. They keep part and donate another part to the foundation

What's interesting is how many ‘foundation donors’ had business dealings on the table when they gave large sums to the grifters.

It's almost as if the Clinton's times it...

It's sad the FBI didn't have time to look into people selling out our country. They were too busy looking for some 'lone wolf' conservative, traditional white American middle class, middle aged man. The little effers will go down in history as part of the reason the United States was destroyed.

Hope the FBI found ONE white lone wolf to justify the billions spent looking... Billion spend while real terrorists moved into key government positions.

Someday soon they'll be held accountable for the choices they've made... and the people who influenced those choices will be brought to justice.
