First, let\’s look at the New York Post\’s front page:
That headline draws on information from the new book by Peter Schweizer, titled “Clinton Cash” and available on May 5th – which details how the Clintons have used their political situations to become fabulously wealthy – and how contributors to the Clintons\’ fabulous wealth have benefitted for making them that way.
There is more – a lot more – in Bob Fredericks\’s article as well. Here is just a taste:
Records show that Bill\’s earnings from appearance fees – both foreign and domestic – spiked at $17 million in 2012, Hillary\’s last year at State.
During Hillary\’s four-year stint as secretary of state, the ex-president earned about $48 million of a $105 million speaking haul amassed between 2001 and 2013.
More than half of the $48 million was paid by companies in China, Japan, Canada, Russia, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and the Cayman Islands, among others.
The author writes that “of the 13 Clinton speeches that fetched $500,000 or more, only two occurred during the years his wife was not secretary of state.”
Does Hillary Clinton have something to worry about here?
That\’s like asking if Hellmann\’s makes real mayonnaise.
