How Many Other "Special" Friends Got Big Bucks From the Clintons?

The latest disclosure that the Clinton family foundation gathered supposedly charitable contributions only to funnel millions to a for profit company owned by friends is big enough news.  According to the New York Post, however, a main beneficiary of the multi-million dollar "gift" was a blonde lady friend of Bill that the Secret Service calls the "Energizer".  The rumor is that she visits Bill in Chappaqua when Hillary is not there.  That would mean the Energizer is there most of the time.

As an aside, this story may undercut Donald Trump's claim that Hillary Clinton tried to destroy all of the women with whom Bill had affairs.  The Energizer has not been destroyed.  Instead, her company got millions of dollars from the Clinton "charity".  Of course, the Energizer has never gone public with her story.  That means that Hillary is fine with paying off Bill's mistresses or even the women with whom Bill allegedly had non-consensual sex.  It's only when they go public with accusations of misconduct by Bill that Hillary allegedly leads the attacks on them.  Such conduct would make clear that Hillary only cares about Bill's misconduct to the extent that it might affect her political future.

But we digress.  Let's get back to the Clinton Foundation "gifts" to non-charitable people and companies.  How many more of these "gifts" are there?  We already know that individuals like Ira Magaziner were hired to by the Clinton foundation and paid $400,000 per year or more.  Magaziner was the chief domestic policy advisor for Bill Clinton when he was president and he led the Clinton effort for healthcare reform.  He was later fined hundreds of thousands of dollars for lying about the activities of the group he headed for Clinton.  He has no expertise in running charities, but he has a lot of utility to Hillary as a campaign advisor.  Is his position with the Clinton Foundation a real one; does he actually work for the foundation or is it just a cover for him to do political work for Hillary?  We need to know the answer.

The truth is that if Bill and Hillary are giving millions of foundation money to the Energizer's company, one has to wonder just how many other special "friends" are also getting big bucks funneled to them by the foundation.
