    The Clintons and the sordid UBS affair .....

    "Secretary of State Hillary Clinton intervened with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on behalf of Switzerland's most powerful banking institution, UBS."

    "Afterwards, UBS increased its previous $60,000 in donations to the Clinton Foundation ten-fold. By the end of 2014, UBS donations to the Clinton Foundation totaled $600,000. UBS also "paid former President Bill Clinton $1.5 million to participate in a series of question-and-answer sessions"

    "Hillary Clinton stepped in to negotiate a deal that prevented the IRS from gaining access to more than 91 percent of the illicit, tax-evading offshore accounts"

    Yes, fewer illegal immigrants working equates to more job opportunities for American citizens.

            Hillary learned how to play this off with the email fiasco.

            Keep saying it was all lies and nothing happened. The public, particularly her fans, will step in line and carry the message.

            The truth will be rewritten shortly.

                    Are you saying the Republicans are all clean? Trump certainly has some issues.

                    The problem is some people's political allegence blinds them to the real problems.

                    So for balance.

                        I read it right to the bottom -- did you see this at the end?

                        [W]hen UBS, which could have lost its ability to conduct business in the U.S. if successfully prosecuted, balked at the IRS demand that it turn over information for all 52,000 accounts, the IRS filed a legal action seeking to compel disclosure. That is when, at the behest of the Swiss government, Hillary Clinton stepped in to negotiate a deal that prevented the IRS from gaining access to more than 91 percent of the illicit, tax-evading offshore accounts.

                        Canning is a retired attorney, author, Vietnam Veteran (4th Infantry, Central Highlands 1968) and a senior adviser to Veterans For Bernie. He has been a member of the California state bar since 1977.
                        Interesting read but everyone knows the Banksters are crooked as hell -- no surprise there. One thing I would note; that it unsaid and I would suppose, that at least half of those accounts of offshored assets where the assets of persons, or persons that are controlling corporations, that would identify themselves as Republicans.

                        Looks to me that Bernie is going after Hillary here by his proxy

                        I have read speculations that there are 25 Trillion dollars (or equivalent) never taxed and forever hidden from taxation -- the shadow assets of the world. Government goes after the millions of ''little tax cheats'' working under the table to either survive or get ahead a little -- and the big fish can pay bribes and evade the tax laws -- so what else is new?

                        The Richest (and Poorest) 2016 Presidential Candidates

                        I am sure Trump will do a lot better than the Clintons ever did ... think about it ....

                              Some here think being Republican cleanses them of all wrong doing, some think Trump is a saviour and some are a little more sane.

                                  Paul, the point of this post was to show the free ride Hillary has received so far this election. Look at everything the press has dug up and used against Trump yet they remain silent when it comes to Queen Hillary.

                                      If Hillary took the same extremist positions that Trump does the (mainstream) press would be all over her like stink-on-shit too.

                                      The press wants to sell papers and page views

                                        Do I hear crickets?

                                        Let's see - one candidate gets a free ride on everything that they actually DID (covering up crime, national security breaches, foreign policy cluster fuck, in bed with Wall Street and big business etc.), while the headlines day and night focus on something someone allegedly SAID and how "dangerous" does it make him.

                                        Yes it may sound like a joke but it's in fact reality. That's the absurdity of today in its full glory and that's also what makes these day's press completely irrelevant and useless.

                                        There is one good thing for the US that happened during this presidential race so far, that is, that the Donald and his press-bait antics helped to fully reveal how completely biased, how far away from any sort of journalism code, how pretentious, pathetic and worthless has the press become.

                                        It's no longer about an actual investigative work, or serving information that is not selectively cherry-picked, it's about spinning, and manipulating what even can be investigated, what even can be published, what is supposed to get scandalized, what is supposed to be repeated over and over.

                                        I guess this quote from Thomas Jefferson may as well be more relevant than ever:

                                        "The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing but newspapers."
