The Goldman Sachs Bribery of Hillary Clinton - Everyone is Lining their Pockets with Cash

Retroactive Bribery

• If Goldman Sachs handed an envelope with $400,000 in it to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for "services rendered" both sides can go to jail.
• But if Goldman Sachs handed an envelope with $400,000 in it to ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for past "services rendered" then it is legal.
• Corporations and unions have discovered a legal way to bribe politicians  -  monstrously huge fees for making a boring, short and forgettable 30 minute speech.  
• Line the right pockets of the special interest groups with taxpayer cash and they will make you wealthier that your wildest dreams.

"Corruptus in Extremis"  -  A now "retired" Hillary Rodham Clinton has plunged into the lucrative world of paid speechmaking, joining a branch of the family business that has brought the Clintons more than $100 million since her husband left the White House in 2001.

Hillary Clinton spoke at two separate Goldman Sachs events on the evenings of Thursday, October 24 and Tuesday, October 29. As both Politico and the New York Times report, Clinton’s fee is about $200,000 per speech, meaning she likely netted around $400,000 for her paid gigs at Goldman over the course of six days.

Last Thursday, Clinton spoke for the AIMS Alternative Investment Conference hosted by Goldman Sachs, a closed event exclusively for Goldman clients. AIMS is an annual conference that explores the latest strategies and products available to financial advisers.

At the event, Clinton offered what one attendee described to me as “prepared remarks followed by questions,” reports National Review.

On Tuesday, Clinton spoke at the Builders and Innovators Summit, devoted to discussing entrepreneurship and how to help innovators expand and grow their businesses.

According to Politico, Clinton conducted a question-and-answer session with Goldman CEO Lloyd Blankfein.

Goldman Sachs declined to comment on the subject of her remarks or why Mrs. Clinton in particular was invited to the events.

Keeping close to the investment world, Clinton also made visits to private-equity firms KKR in July and the Carlyle Group in September.

At KKR’s annual investor meeting in California, Clinton answered questions from firm co-founder Henry Kravis on the Middle East, Washington, and politics. At Carlyle Group, Clinton made a speech to shareholders moderated by Carlyle founder David Rubenstein.

Clinton’s office did not respond to a request for comment.

Magic money falls from the sky

"Magic" special interest money just falls from the sky and somehow manages to land

right in the wallets of the corrupt politicians.

The $100 Million Couple
Bill and Hillary did not have jack shit in the way of money because Bill worked a lifetime as a low paid Arkansas elected official.  But "very grateful" special interest groups have paid the Clintons more than $100 million since they left the White House in 2001.
.
Now everyone in Washington is sucking hard on the special interest teats.  Congressmen, Senators and hack appointees alike are legally "rewarded" for past services rendered with jobs on corporate boards, speaking fees or being hired as lobbyists.
