Judicial Watch new Hillary e-mails proving Clinton Foundation donors got special favors at State



You'll want to click through to read the specific e-mail content we didn't have room to excerpt here. Judicial Watch continues to do the work the media don't want to do in revealing the fundamental corruption of Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation. It sums up perfectly the pay-for-play corruption that characterized everything Hillary did as Secretary of State, and demonstrates in stunning details just how the Clinton Foundation was used to collect cash from suitors in exchange for favors. And at the center of it all was Mrs. Carlos Danger herself:
The new documents included 20 Hillary Clinton email exchanges not previously turned over to the State Department, bringing the known total to date to 191 of new Clinton emails (not part of the 55,000 pages of emails that Clinton turned over to the State Department). These records further appear to contradict statements by Clinton that, “as far as she knew,” all of her government emails were turned over to the State Department. The Abedin emails reveal that the longtime Clinton aide apparently served as a conduit between Clinton Foundation donors and Hillary Clinton while Clinton served as secretary of state. In more than a dozen email exchanges, Abedin provided expedited, direct access to Clinton for donors who had contributed from $25,000 to $10 million to the Clinton Foundation. In many instances, Clinton Foundation top executive Doug Band, who worked with the Foundation throughout Hillary Clinton’s tenure at State, coordinated closely with Abedin. In Abedin’s June deposition to Judicial Watch, she conceded that part of her job at the State Department was taking care of “Clinton family matters.” Included among the Abedin-Band emails is an exchange revealing that when Crown Prince Salman of Bahrain requested a meeting with Secretary of State Clinton, he was forced to go through the Clinton Foundation for an appointment. Abedin advised Band that when she went through “normal channels” at State, Clinton declined to meet. After Band intervened, however, the meeting was set up within forty-eight hours. According to the Clinton Foundation website, in 2005, Salman committed to establishing the Crown Prince’s International Scholarship Program (CPISP) for the Clinton Global Initiative. And by 2010, it had contributed $32 million to CGI. The Kingdom of Bahrain reportedly gave between $50,000 and $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation. And Bahrain Petroleum also gave an additional $25,000 to $50,000.

So it basically worked like this: People who thought they might want or need help from the State Department would write large checks to the Clinton Foundation. That put them on a list such that Doug Band knew he would need to be responsive if they came asking for State Department help. Sometimes they would reach out to the State Department through "official channels," but Clinton Foundation donors understood that official channels were for suckers. If you really wanted action, you'd go to Band, who'd go to Abedin, who understood that part of her job was taking care of "Clinton family matters" even though the taxpayers were paying her salary. How do you think the Russians ended with control of all that American uranium? You pay the Clintons. You get to play. The system worked like a dream if you had given enough cash. I'm already anticipating the left-wing rationalizations for this, assuming it gets enough attention that they'll even need to come up with one. I imagine it's something along the lines of, "Every politician takes care of his or her donors." And that's true. But not every politician sets up a global "foundation" so they can get away with accepting millions in foreign money, and not every politician delivers the goods so lucratively to the detriment of the American people like Hillary was happy to do for her palm-greasers.

And by the way, no, not every politician will cross moral and ethical lines to take care of donors. You might get a meeting. But with a public servant of any integrity whatsoever, you're not going to get things you shouldn't be getting just because you gave money. Don't let left-wing Hillary apologists tell you everyone does this. Everyone does not do this. And by the way, you know darn well that the reason for the schlock, homebrew e-mail server was to hide correspondences about this stuff. Those 30,000 e-mails she claims weren't "work-related"? Try absolute proof of corruption. That's what's in them. Hillary's corruption is historically unparalleled. Even Richard Nixon didn't take his personal corruption to this level. And where is the media on all this? Obsessing over the latest sloppily worded aside out of Donald Trump's mouth? Because this is the type of corruption that's going to be institutionalized in the White House if Hillary is elected, and they don't care because she's their crook.
