Sooner or later, somebody has to call a spade a spade.
It is bribery which was happening in this foundation.
It was bad enough when Bush Sr got a huge sum of money for a post-presidency foreign speech, but Hillary through the foundation was getting bribed as a future president.
If the FBI still exists, it should be seizing the server today.

Elkin, did you even read what I wrote?
It seem very wrong, to me, for Bush Sr to get big sums of money for foreign speech activity.
But, with the Clintons, it is much worse than selling access to a former politician who knows who to phone in D.C.
Hillary was taking these amounts -- let's be honest and call them bribes -- while Sec of State, and she aspires to become president.
Even The NY Times is reporting on this.

Bill Clinton to the media "I don't use email, I've only sent two emails in my life, both were while I was President."
Hillary Clinton on that same day to media in a different city "The 30,000 emails I delete included emails from my husband and yoga classes are no body's business"
So which one lied? The answer is both!
It's time the law be enforced equally for all, a person's status shouldn't determine if they are exempt from the law.

The case of $500,000 for one of Bill's speech is just one very disturbing example.
Hillary and Bill are married, so that's a $250,000 deposit to her while being Secretary of State, and it is from a foreign entity, and any reasonable person would see it as a payoff.
Forget politics. No American should want this happening.

Any reasonable person would know that any government or business willing to pay $500,000.00 plus private jet and other expenses to hear Bill Clinton crack a few jokes is expecting something in return. Even the Clintons understand that, if not Hillary is stupid. So either Hillary is stupid or she's corrupt, I believe she's both if she thinks we don't get it.

Justme and Forbestardo are spinning like the dual blades on a Chinook helicopter chucking all kinds of shit at the wall and looking to see what can stick.
So what did Hillary do as Secretary of State that would benefit donors?
Evidence?
Anybody?

The latest revelation comes involves a deal which enabled Russia to own about 20% of the uranium production capacity of the United States for a $2.35 million donation to the Clinton Family Foundation.
