Bill Clinton: 'It's Hard' To Think About Leaving Foundation
NPR ^ | September 19, 2016 | Arnie Seipel

Posted on 09/19/2016 5:58:43 AM PDT by Zakeet

Bill Clinton says that out of the hundreds of thousands of donors to the Clinton Foundation over the past 18 years, there must have been some people who gave to the foundation to gain influence with him and his wife.

But the former president told NPR that doesn't mean any donors received anything improperly.

[Snip]

"I've had this job longer than I ever had any job, and I've loved it," Clinton said. "And you know, we always say in response to our critics, that nobody in my family ever took a penny out of this foundation and put millions of dollars in. But I would have paid more to do this job. It was the most fun thing I've ever done."

[Snip]

He theorizes that people are gravitating towards more negative news stories because of the social and economic upheaval the country has seen: "It will get better if the economy improves, as I believe it is now doing and will do dramatically."

But he added, that will only happen if Hillary Clinton is elected.

I bet Bill.

Liquidating America for personal gain was quite lucrative for you and your evil “wife”.

You should never write “Bill Clinton” and “It’s hard” in the same sentence.

The greedy Clintons think they're smarter than the rest of us......but no one---not
even the Clintons---can launder and steal billions and not leave a huge paper trail.

Remember Billy's infamous pass-through account---emptied clean every night?

Funds passing through Billybooboo's WJC LLC could end up in (a) secret offshore accounts,
(b) money market accounts, (c) other investments....without a smidgen of public scrutiny....

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

That certainly explains OBAMA'S ACADEMY-AWARD WORTHY ACT.

He acts like he "knows nothing." Obama didn't even know about this (snix).

PIC Circa 2010--Ex-Pres Clinton in Moscow having a laugh w/ Putin
as strategic US uranium deposits were sold off to Russia for Big Bucks
facilitated by Secy Clinton, as Bill globe-trotted to set up the deal.

"Hahahaha. US ntl security? Hahahaha. You gotta be kidding, Vlad."

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

With all the top-level intel available to him, can Americans actually believe:

<><>Obama was oblivious to the Clintons jerking around US foreign policy?

<><> Obama knew nothing of Hillary and Sid Blumenthal's emails WRT Iran (the man Obama banned from US govt employment)?

<><> Obama knew nothing about the Clinton Foundation/slush fund buck-raking activities?

<><> Obama never noticed Bill Clinton trotting around the globe?

<><> Obama never noticed the Clinton "charity" used to worm his way into the confidences of foreign leaders.... but only those leaders w/ untapped reserves of gold, uranium, oil, and other valuable commodities?

<><> Obama never knew Hillary's brother got a gold-mining permit in Haiti?

Hand-picked by Obama to run State, Hillary ran it like a shadow govt.... w/ her husband taking notes WRT buck-raking opportunities available from Hillary's actions OR inaction.

Secy Hillary never e-v-e-r uttered a discouraging word e-v-e-r......as the Clinton Foundation sucked up hundred of millions of foreign dollars from shady characters.

OF COURSE, the Clintons selling access to State Dept decisions and passing on classified information to interested parties for a foundation donation.......NEVER, EVER interfered w/ Obama/s OWN foreign policy initiatives (cue laugh machine).

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

PULITZER PRIZE ANYBODY?---an enterprising reporter (1) matches-up foreign policy decisions at Hillary's State Dept, (2) the timing of donations to the Clinton Foundation....and, (3) related foreign policy decisions by Obama.

“It’s HARD!”
“It’s HARD!”
“It’s HARD!”

How many countless women, outside of Hillary, have heard this!?

In addition to the Clinton Global Initiative, there are separate
Clinton family foundations that maintain their own revenue streams.
All these entities maintain separate operations for the Clintons’
pay-to-play global racketeering operations
:

<><>the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI),

<><>the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton (BHCC) Foundation,

<><>the Clinton Foundation Hong Kong,

<><> William J. Clinton Foundation Charitable Trust (Kenya),

<><>William J. Clinton Foundation Charitable Trust (UK),

<><> the Clinton Foundation Insalingsstiftelse (Sweden).

<><> the Clinton/Guistra Partnership, Canada.

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

CREATNG A CLINTON DO-GOOD FUND-RAISER--One day, as camera clicked, little Chelsea frowned, said she worried about the elephant population being decimated. And BOOM....the Clinton Foundation had another do-good fund-raising cause (raising the total do-good fund-raising causes to some 256---at last count).

A tax-exempt is audited on (1) it's do-good fund raising efforts, and, (2) how they spent the money raised. Diverting money raised for one cause and using it elsehere is considered mail/electronic fraud.

As the Clinton Foundation's vice-chair, how many fund-raising letters did little Chelsea sign off on?

Is Chelsea in legal jeopardy?/

Let him stay. Once we defeat Hillary, they can both face charges together for the corruption of the Clinton Foundation.

Coming from a SOB who gave away sophisticated weapons technology to the ChiComs in exchange for their illegal donations to his presidential campaign.

Billionaire sex offender Epstein once claimed he co-founded Clinton Foundation
Attorneys for convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein touted his close friendship with Bill Clinton and even claimed the billionaire helped start Clinton's controversial family foundation in a 2007 letter aimed at boosting his image during plea negotiations, FoxNews.com has learned.

The 23-page letter, written by high-powered lawyers Alan Dershowitz and Gerald Lefcourt, was apparently part of an ultimately successful bid to negotiate a plea deal before Epstein could be tried for using underage girls in a sex ring based in Palm Beach, Fla., and his private island estate on the 72-acre Virgin Islands home dubbed “Orgy Island.” Epstein spent 13 months in prison and home detention after agreeing to a plea deal in which he admitted to soliciting an underage girl for prostitution. [Snip]

Epstein also has supported the Clinton Foundation financially, but that was not made public until two years ago when a whistle-blower released the names of the super-rich, including Epstein, who held Swiss accounts at the HSBC bank.

The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, which obtained the data from the whistle-blower, documented $81 million being routed from HSBC Swiss accounts to The Clinton Foundation, including money from Epstein. (Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...

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

Can you say money laundering-----L/E examining Epstein's books found Clinton and his buddy Doug Band listed w/ 20 odd phone nos and email addies. L/E recognizes multiple nos as the criminal MO for money-laundering.

They set up a ‘charity’ that raises hundreds of millions of dollars.

Not ONE mention of it at the Democratic National Convention.

No video. No showing the good they did. Nothing.

And nobody even asks why not?

Our corrupt MSM.

Took a guy with a cell phone to break the story on her collapsing.

Thanks to that piece of crap children began engaging in that act. CHILDREN. Thank you for putting in children’s heads that ‘depends on what your definition of the word is is’ meant that an act of love between two adults wasn’t worth anything at all and that it was meaningless sexless fun.

Thank you for destroying so much in children. And I hope Pedophile Island comes back to haunt you and all yours.
