Clinton Foundation reveals up to $26 million in
additional payments

The Clinton Foundation reported Thursday
that it has received as much as $26.4 million in previously undisclosed
payments from major corporations, universities, foreign sources and other
groups. THE OTHER “GROUPS” ARE THE MUSLIM DICTATORS WHOSE BORDERS HILLARY HAS
VOWED TO PROTECT AS WELL AS OBAMA!
The disclosure came as the foundation faced questions over
whether it fully complied with a 2008 ethics agreement to reveal its donors and
whether any of its funding sources present conflicts of interest for Hillary
Rodham Clinton as she begins her presidential campaign.
The money was paid as fees for speeches by Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton. Foundation officials said the funds were tallied internally as “revenue” rather than donations, which is why they had not been included in the public listings of its contributors published as part of the 2008 agreement.
According to the new information, the Clintons have delivered 97 speeches to benefit the charity since 2002. Colleges and universities sponsored more than two dozen of these speeches, along with U.S. and overseas corporations and at least one foreign government, Thailand.
The payments were disclosed late Thursday on the organization’s Web site, with speech payments listed in ranges rather than specific amounts. In total, the payments ranged between $12 million and $26.4 million.
The paid appearances included speeches by former president Bill Clinton to the Nigerian ThisDay newspaper group for at least $500,000 and to the

The foundation, which has raised
$2 billion since Bill Clinton left the White House, has emerged as a
political headache for Hillary Clinton amid recent controversies over
donations. The foundation, along with the Clintons’ paid speaking careers, have
provided additional avenues for foreign governments and other interests to gain
entrĂ©e to one of America’s most prominent political families. Some Republicans
have charged that Hillary Clinton, during her tenure as secretary of state, was
in a position to reward foundation donors.
Thursday’s disclosure is one of a number of instances in recent weeks in which the foundation has acknowledged that it received funding from sources not disclosed on its Web site.
The ethics agreement was reached between the foundation and the Obama administration to provide additional transparency and avoid potential conflicts of interest with Hillary Clinton’s appointment as secretary of state.
The agreement placed restrictions on foreign government donations, for instance, but the foundation revealed in February that it had violated the limits at one point by taking $500,000 from Algeria.
Thursday’s release regarding speaking fees follows earlier disclosures showing how the lecture circuit has also made the Clintons personally wealthy.
Last week, Hillary Clinton disclosed that she and her husband made around $25 million since January 2014 from speeches; Bill Clinton also was paid more than $104 million from 2001 through 2012 by delivering speeches.
The Clintons reported that income on federally required personal financial disclosure forms filed by Hillary Clinton as a senator, secretary of state and now a declared presidential candidate.
But the new disclosure indicates that the former president has also spent considerable time speaking on the foundation’s behalf — 73 times since 2002.
Hillary Clinton has delivered 15 such speeches, including one address to Goldman Sachs and another to JPMorgan Chase. Chelsea Clinton, who has
taken on an increasingly active role at the foundation, has collected fees for the charity from nine organizations.
The foundation did not provide dates for the speaking engagements.
Vincent
Salamone, a spokesman for the Office of Government Ethics, said this week that
speeches delivered by public officials or their spouses acting as an “agent” of
a charitable group in which the payment is made directly to the organization
need not be disclosed in financial filings of public officials.
Brian
Fallon, a spokesman for the Clinton campaign, said that analysis explains why
the Clintons did not disclose the speeches while Hillary Clinton was a senator
and then secretary of state.
While the Clinton Foundation has annually disclosed its donors since 2008, the foundation said Thursday that organizations that paid for Clinton speeches have not before been included in those lists because they were paying for a service and not making a tax-deductible donation.
Craig
Minassian, a spokesman for the foundation, said the new release came as part of
the foundation’s continuing commitment to transparency. Nonprofit groups are
not required by law to release any information about their funders.
“In
addition to the more than 300,000 donors who are all listed on our web site,
posting these speeches is just another example of how our disclosure policies
go above and beyond what’s required of charities,” he said in a statement.
“Like other global charities, the
Clinton Foundation receives support from
“Like other global charities, the Clinton Foundation receives support from individuals and organizations across all sectors of society, backgrounds and ideologies because they know our programs are improving the lives of millions of people around the world,” he also said.
A
foundation official indicated the speech dollars have been disclosed as revenue
in annual tax filings to the IRS. The official indicated that the foundation
will now update the public speech list four times a year, much as it has said
it will do with other donors now that Clinton’s campaign has launched.
The Clintons have indicated that they donate significant personal funds to the foundation each year. The foundation official said that the couple have not considered speech revenue to be part of their personal charitable giving, and Fallon said they have never taken a deduction on their taxes for the fees.
There
was one entity clearly associated with a foreign government that provided
speaking fees, of $250,000 to $500,000 for a speech by Bill Clinton: The energy
ministry in Thailand.
The
U.S. Islamic World Forum also provided $250,000 to $500,000 to the foundation
for a speech by Bill Clinton, according to the new disclosure. The event was
organized in part by the Brookings Institution with support from
the government of Qatar.
In addition, the list is studded with overseas corporations and foundations.
They
included the South Korean energy and chemicals conglomerate Hanwha, which paid
$500,000 to $1,000,000 for a speech by Bill Clinton.
China
Real Estate Development Corp. paid the foundation between $250,000 and $500,000
for a speech by the former president. The Qatar First Investment Bank, now
known as the Qatar First Bank, paid fees in a similar range. The bank is
described by Persian Gulf financial press as specializing in high-net-worth
clients.
The Telmex Foundation, founded by
Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim, provided between $250,000 and $500,000 for a
speech by Hillary Clinton.
The
new data shows that a number of public education institutions paid the
foundation for speeches by Bill, Hillary or Chelsea Clinton.
Those speeches drew backlash on some campuses, as universities paid hundreds of thousands to the Clinton
charity at a time of rising tuitions and slashed university budgets.
After the academic sponsors, financial services and
health-industry-related firms heavily populated the list of domestic sponsors.

FIFTEEN THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT LA RAZA “THE
RACE” and the LA RAZA DEMS’ PUSH TO EXPAND MEX
SUPREMACY TO BUY THE ILLEGALS’ VOTES:
by Michelle Malkin
Only in America could critics of a group called "The Race" be labeled racists. Such is the triumph of left-wing identity chauvinists, whose aggressive activists and supine abettors have succeeded in redefining all opposition as "hate."
HERE’S No. 6 OF THE FIFTEEN THINGS ABOUT HILLARY’S LA RAZA PARTY BASE OF ILLEGALS:
(FROM HER FIRST RUN FOR THE PRESIDENCY)
6. Former "Race" president Raul Yzaguirre, Hillary Clinton's Hispanic outreach adviser, said this: "U.S. English is to Hispanics as the Ku Klux Klan is to blacks." He was referring to U.S. English, the nation's oldest, largest citizens' action group dedicated to preserving the unifying role of the English language in the United States. "The Race" also pioneered Orwellian open-borders Newspeak and advised the Mexican government on how to lobby for illegal alien amnesty while avoiding the terms "illegal" and "amnesty."
IS AMNESTY only A DEVICE TO DEPRESS WAGES or
REALLY A CONSPIRACY TO AMNESTY DESTROYED GOP?
Or just America’s middle-class?
A week later, Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) said the immigration bill was “far worse” than ObamaCare: He described the bill as an attempt by Senate Democrats “to establish another monolithic voting bloc” among Hispanic Americans.
“In other words, the Republican Party is finished. As their numbers grow through immigration and welfare, democrats will become the wholesale dominant party in America until everyone’s money runs out by all those who milk the system, i.e., 45.2 million Americans subsisting on food stamps and assisted house, energy, medical care and electricity—will ultimately grow to 90 million and more. All of who work will be paying for all those who choose to live for free forever.”
Who are Obama’s LA RAZA party base of illegals. How much of a threat to America is this Mexican fascism?
