Via Rania Khalek:
But I'm sure those war profiteers are just incredibly generous and expect nothing in return.

And just a reminder: “Clinton Foundation Donors Got Weapons Deals From Hillary Clinton’s State Department“
Not much money there. $155,340? But instructive, nonetheless. Perhaps it suggests that the “oligarchy” is so many-tentacled that each tentacle needs give only a pittance (such as $155,340) in order to buy devoted subservience. Perhaps it merely means that members of The Establishment need merely pat other members of The Establishment on the back with gentle taps, and big money is for other occasions (but which?).
Anyone got any ideas? If Hillary is supported by one or more PACs, where’d they get their cash?
pabelmont “Not much money there. $155,340?” Not for a Lawyer like Hillary or any Lawyer [snark] According to public disclosures, by giving just 12 speeches to Wall Street banks, private equity firms, and other financial corporations, Clinton made $2,935,000 from 2013 to 2015:link to https://theintercept.com/2016/01/08/hillary-clinton-earned-more-from-12-speeches-to-big-banks-than-most-americans-earn-in-their-lifetime/
Also, both Clintons have taken millions of dollars in speaking fees from the health care industry. According to public disclosures, Hillary Clinton alone, from 2013 to 2015, made $2,847,000 from 13 paid speeches to the industry.link to https://theintercept.com/2016/01/13/hillary-clinton-single-payer/ Carlos got her eyes just right.
I cannot believe that anything that woman says could possibly be worth anything near what she is paid. Could it be that these people are paying her this money for access?
Hmmmm…
Hillary refuses to release the transcripts of her speeches [see my comment above] to the Banks and Corporations. https://theintercept.com/2016/02/19/hillary-clinton-goldman-sachs-transcripts/ WHY?
Hillary will probably increase weapons funding to Israel. Hillary’s so vocal when it comes to gun restrictions in the U.S., but when it comes to supplying weapons to her buddy Netanyahu to kill Palestinian children with; she’s all laughs:
