Facing criticism for some of the donations given to his family’s philanthropy, Bill Clinton said on Thursday that the Clinton Foundation would no longer accept foreign or corporate money and that he would resign from its board should Hillary Clinton win the presidency.
Mr. Clinton’s announcement, which he relayed to foundation employees in a meeting on Thursday, followed the recent release of State Department emails mentioning donors to the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation who had contact with aides to Mrs. Clinton while she was the secretary of state.
The donations have become a lighting rod in Mrs. Clinton’s campaign against Donald J. Trump, who has repeatedly implied that foreign donors had corrupted his opponent’s tenure as secretary of state

H*ll, the Foundation has been collecting pre-payments on Hillary’s ascendency to the presidency for years - if she doesn’t win it’ll close down while Hill and Bill hide out in the Amazon jungle from all those “investors” who bought and paid for her and want their money back.....
I totally trust her on this. </S>
They supposed to do just that when she was Sec of State?
It’s a problem, but in her world only an “optics” problem.
The chutzpah of this man is amazing.
Conflict of interest as POTUS but not as SOSUS ?
She’ll never let go of her vacation/travel slush fund...
vote for me and I’ll reconsider my corrupt ways...
<<<But it was OK while she was Sec State?
yep.. there’s no good way to spin this and a half-dozen ways it demands cognitive dissonance.
- Ok while SoS but not Pres.
- Ok while a major candidate for pres, but not if elected.
- Violated promises made before becoming SoS, but will honor this promise made before becoming president..
Yup, no kidding. They could even watch the movie "Clinton cash" which has been played several times on OAN and is free to view on the internet. It lays it all out in a fashion even they could understand. That would take them a whole hour of "investigative journalism". They won't though. They don't care one bit about any evidence of the Clinton's mountain of corruption. They're too busy looking to find evidence of Trump saying something bad to a minority or something.
Yeah. Okay. Only a total retard would believe anything the Clintoons say.
I guess they don’t want to stop the flow of money that goes to their buddy’s so called “charities” from the “foundation”. You know, that whole big 10%.
I’ll bet less then 1% of that 10% ever gets to any people in need, if even that. If this were a republican “foundation” doing this corrupt crap, the so called media would have a field day with it.
Not to mention the treason involved.
isn’t that mighty white of them?
Just another lie!
Beyond that, there have been enough donations already given and received to make any more unnecessary-—the payback for them will continue through Hillary’s four years either way.
Probably the greatest quote by the great Mencken.
