Hillary Clinton quits Clinton Foundation |
2015-04-14 |
[POLITICO] ![]() ... sometimes described as The Heroine of Tuzlaand at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another John Jay... on Sunday resigned from the board of the Clinton Foundation to focus on her just-launched presidential campaign, POLITICO has learned. Clinton announced her resignation in an email to the foundation's employees Sunday afternoon, not long after launching her presidential campaign with a digital media blitz. "While I have cherished my time serving on the board and engaging in the day-to-day work of the Foundation, in order to devote myself to this new, all-encompassing endeavor, I have resigned from the Board of Directors effective today," she wrote in an email obtained by POLITICO. "As I step down from that position, I know that I am leaving the Foundation in great hands. I am equally as excited that Chelsea will continue to lead the Foundation's mission with Bill, building upon our family's commitment to help all people live their best life story." |

#8 It doesn't matter whether she stayed or quit the foundation. The money will get cleaned up and come her way none-the-less. Any paper trail will get blurred, smudged, erased, cleaned, dumped, scrubbed... |

#7 Gotta complicate the paper trail and create deniability in case of eventual investigation. |

#6 Likely funds from the Clinton Foundation will find their way to the Center for American Progress for "voter outreach." The think tank, by the way, just happened to have had John Podesta as its first president, and is currently headed by Neera Tanden, who worked for both the Obama and Clinton administrations and for Hillary Clinton’s campaigns. |

#5 Nice of her to leave this huge fund-raising engine for Chelsea to run her campaigns from. What a mom! |

#4 I thought her server was all broken For elections they only use tax payer resources. Most likely state department servers and staff. |

#2 Hillary goes unnoticed in Ohio. Had I been there, at the very least my skin would have been crawling or my stomach upset. |

#1 "I have totally dissociated myself from the Foundation. From now on, Bill and Chelsea will be accepting the bribes from corrupt misogynist autocratic regimes and rentseekers. So, as you can see, my hands are clean. No blood. See?" |
