CONFIRMED : These Clinton Foundation Donors Got Special Access to Hillary’s State Department
The fact that even Hillary Clinton’s biggest cheerleader, the Washington Post has no choice but to release information damning to her candidacy speaks volumes.
The Orlando Sentinel Reports
A batch of emails released Monday from Huma Abedin, Clinton’s deputy chief of staff at the State Department, shows how Clinton Foundation donors sought favors.
Not all requests appear to have been granted, but the coziness between State and the Clinton family charity raise questions about the integrity of Hillary’s promise to President Obama to build a firewall between the two institutions when she became his secretary of state.
Among examples reported by The Washington Post:
•Sports executive Casey Wasserman, whose own family’s charitable organization has given the Clinton Foundation between $5 million and $10 million, and whose investment company paid Bill Clinton $3.13 million in consulting fees in 2009 and 2010 — sought a visa for a British soccer player with a criminal past. It was not granted.
•The crown prince of Bahrain, Salman bin Hamad al-Khalifa, whose government had given $50,000 to the foundation, requested a last-minute meeting with the secretary of state. Granted.
•U2’s Bono, a regular at foundation events, asked for help in broadcasting a live link to the International Space Station during a concert tour. Response from State: “No clue.”
These discoveries, among others, may not amount to much in terms of actual favors, but they cast doubt on the integrity of Hillary Clinton’s word.
They also go a long way toward confirming her critics’ allegation that the Clintons were in a global pay-for-play arrangement.
One crucial fact is no longer in dispute: Foundation donors got access to the State Department.
The emails became public through a lawsuit filed by Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group, and were among 725 pages of Abedin’s correspondence. The stash also included 20 emails between Abedin and Clinton that weren’t included in the 55,000 pages previously provided to State. Meanwhile, the FBI has turned over about 15,000 other emails and documents to State that were discovered during the agency’s investigation of Clinton’s private server.
Judicial Watch is trying to get these released as well.
