She’s promised to make her campaign about average, working-class Americans. She was even going to stand up to the wealthy elite.
As long as those wealthy elite aren’t from Riyadh or Mecca.
New evidence shows that wealthy Saudi Arabian interests continue to invest heavily in getting former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton elected president. And Clinton’s ties with one of the world’s most brutal regimes may run deeper than anyone had imagined.
According to a new report from award-winning investigative journalist Michael Isikoff, the Saudi government has quietly handed a lucrative new “public relations” contract to Washington, DC lobbying outfit the Podesta Group. At least $200,000 has already changed hands.
The problem? The company is owned by top Clinton fundraiser Tony Podesta and the contract comes at a time when the Saudi government is facing international scrutiny over airstrikes in Yemen and a crackdown on Saudi political opponents.
Foreign policy analysts see the move as a transparent attempt by the Saudis to influence Clinton and show their support for her candidacy.
And why not? The Clintons have demonstrated a long-term willingness to expose themselves to Saudi money and influence.
The Clinton Foundation has accepted millions from both the Saudi government and its thinly veiled PR firm, known as Friends of Saudi Arabia.
The cozy financial relationship between the Clintons and the Saudis received new scrutiny in 2011, when a State Department led by Hillary Clinton cleared a massive arms deal with Saudia Arabia. The deal reportedly had U.S. ally Israel fuming.
Saudi Arabia is consistently rated as having one of the worst human rights records in the world, and the country is seen by many as a breeding ground for terrorism.
Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud has been criticized for a history of funding and supporting radical Islamic groups everywhere from Africa to Europe.

Besides the pathologic lying, and Olympic secrecy that clouds and swaths every Clinton family member’s day-to-day functions, why doesn’t the revelation that they are all have been, and continue to be, on the take from sources that easily meet the definition of “THE ENEMY,” create a groundswell of public discord that would usually result in citizens mob action and firing squads, hanging, or being torn limb from limb as a good measure.
This woman shouldn’t be allowed to run for dog catcher, let alone president. It is never too late in politics to suddenly have a change of heart and encourage the mob to engage in a frenzy of long-overdue retribution. They did it to While not fully exposed as an agent of radical islam, like Obama, HIllary has no compunctions against taking baksheesh from whatever islamic source slips her the money. Neither did Bubba, and that subterfuge went all the way back to Chinese communist money aiding in his re-election and sudden decisions to ship Top Secret rocket and aircraft designs over to the Chinese People’s Army.

“..Olympic secrecy that clouds and swaths every Clinton family member’s day-to-day functions,..”
While I have every support for your ably expressed views I am nonetheless grateful, and indeed decency demands, there is the `..secrecy that clouds and swaths (certain) Clinton family day to day functions..’
ALLEN GOTTLIEB says
AFTER THIS ADMINISTRATION AND CONGRESS GIVES THE WORST TERRORIST COUNTRY IN THE ENTIRE WORLD, IRAN, 150 BILLION DOLLARS, I HAVE LOST ALL CONFIDENCE AND STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT THOSE WHO VOTED FOR THIS ILLEGAL AND DEVASTATING DEAL MUST BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE AS EACH LIFE THAT IS LOST DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY AS A RESULT OF ARMING IRAN WITH FUNDS MUST FALL SQUARELY ON THOSE WHO MADE VOTED FOR THIS DEAL. YOU MAY NOT LIKE TRUMP BUT THIS DEAL WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED IF HE WAS PRESIDENT, OR FOR THAT MATTER ANY THINKING BUSINESS PERSON OR REAL AMERICAN.
EY SHOULD ALL BE IMPEACHED FOR THESE ACTS DO NOT KNOW ANY LONGER WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A THINKING AMERICAN. CONGRESSPERSONS SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO TAKE THREE TESTS BEFORE RUNNING FOR PUBLIC OFFICE; 1) INTELLIGENCE TEST 2) DOUBLE AGENTS TEST 3) ALLEGIANCE TO DEMOCRACY, FREEDOM,THE CONSTITUTION AND BILL OF RIGHTS.
Randi Sucaciu says
Allen, you are one of the few with common sense.
glenn davis says
Hillary would look great in a burqa.
Bob says
The Clintons are very bad people better wake up before they won’t have anything to wake up to. They are worst than the Mafia ever thought of being.
Cecilia says
The Clintons should be under the jail. This country needs more of them like we need an extra hole in the head.
Jerry says
The basic motivation is personal greed. This whole planet has gone in the wrong direction. Having lived here for 84 years, remembering being a proud , combat in Korea. The whole world loved and respected Americans . As an American veteren I was proud serving my country.. Today I am so fed up with what’s happening in our country I don’t feel like its the same country. I don’t think it’s necessary to go in specifics.
Ron Gjoraas says
Well said Jerry. Greed has destroyed our country. We are reaping the rewards of a people that no longer have a moral compass. A democratic republic can only exist and survive when there is a moral compass that governs people’s thoughts and actions. It’s been replaced by our desire to get and do whatever we want. Would godless be a contributing factor?
Stefano Tatai says
In most of my not exactly short life I adored America. I ceased to do it recently when I dicovered the criminal behaviour of the latest Administrations that contributed with their idiotic interventions in the Middle East to the present tragical unrest of which Europe is collateral victim.
rodney says
And you were expecting anything else. She is a communist and now a terrorist? A sociopath, and a liar. Should be shot dead by SS or anyone else. “Traitors SHOULD be hanged.” Mombasa “Conan the Barbarian. I think an ample metaphor. Too bad we don’t hang traitors anymore, they all join the democratic party and screw up the nation!
Paul Shanahan says
I think the people that responded did a great job and I agree with every one of them. I am an Air Force Vet and I have a hard time even reconizing the country as it is. What a damn shame and our politicians have caused this mess. I really don’t know if we will ever get out of this situation……
donald forester says
the voting public put Obama in office despite his lies,deceptions,refusal to release his education records,his Muslim background and lack of experience.Hillary is no different,liar cheat,failed to declare money to the Clinton foundation,Benghazi lie.Unbelievable is what they are,to paraphrase the song by the similar title

“The cozy financial relationship between the Clintons and the Saudis received new scrutiny in 2011, when a State Department led by Hillary Clinton cleared a massive arms deal with Saudia Arabia. The deal reportedly had U.S. ally Israel fuming.”
While I’m unconcerned that the deal `had Israel fuming’ -whose own record of treatment of Palestinians wouldn’t bear HR scrutiny- nonetheless it must be blatantly clear that large sums of lucre from foreign states contributed towards the election of a US president does not bode well for America. Large sums always come with strings attached and if Americans are unhappy to have their foreign policy decided at the behest of foreign powers they would do well to avoid this monitory contamination: needless to say any potential president that needs telling that should also be avoided like the plague.
Fed up says
Well everybody is bitching now !! Where was everyone who voted for Obama.. Somebody had to vote for him but it’s really hard to find them now.. If you put that bitch in office .. You deserve what you get.. WAKE UP AMERICA
Will Harden says
The violent Saudi political sect, the Wahhabis, are the source of better than 90% of the world’s terrorism.
Saudi Arabia was just another Muslim country until the Wahhabis killed King Faisal in a coup in 1975. Since then they have brought back, Sharia, repression of women and support of terrorism all over the world. I am talking about ISIS, Al-Qaeda, Taliban and Boko Haram.
The crazy thing is that Jihad, beheading, suicide bombing and the 72 virgins in paradise are not in the Koran, but have all come from the Wahhabis.
That figures that Hillary would be taking money from the Wahhabis.
The incredibly corrupt Clinton Trust has 2 billion dollars to buy the 2016 election and even a TV series “Madam Secretary” to advertise for Hillary.
Justin Wachin says
“She’s promised to make her campaign…” Any time Hillary makes a promise you can consider it to be a lie.
Everyone would do well to remember where the Sept. 11 terrorists came from. Saudi Arabia has a long history of befriending us on one side and working to attack us on the other. We need a president that hasn’t been enriched by foreign governments. The Clintons will sell just about anything to the highest bidder–that includes our freedoms and our nation’s military secrets.
rick Miiksell says
Donald Trump is not bought. He fights back. You caN tell he feels like the rest of us. Let’s make America great again. Our friends and enemies are laughing at us. We no longer have their respect. I’m ashamed of our government and .leaders. Let’s vote them all out and start over. It doesn’t matter if they are Democrats, Republicans, or Independents. They’re all crooked. Look at all the things they have done wrong. It was not meant to be a career job. Nor should they get a pension or the high pay they receive. They voted it for themselves. All money the government gets comes from us. The totally stupid people who are getting handouts don’t even realize it. They are parasites. More than half themoney the government takes is wasted.
Dr. John Lira says
Hilary and Bill have been the worst, dishonest and lying twosome that have ever occupied the White House! If you want the scum to grow, then vote for Hillary! She and her husband have embarrassed the Oval Office and our country with all the scams and self-greed they have enjoyed by other crooked and greedy business and political human beings! When will their lies catch up to them? Is this what we as americans want this worst couple and self serving humans want to be people? Enough is enough, stop them now and say”NO MORE CLINTONS FOR OUR COUNTRY”!!!!!
Phil Sargent says
I guess when you’re that ucking fugly you’ll go to bed with just about anything.
Dr. John Lira says
No more Clintons in the White House!!
Helen says
I hope Trump gets in in the next elections. America should then be saved.
Joseph P. Bottini says
If I believe half of what is written about the Clintons, they ought to be banned from any government office.
But, in a democracy the people’s vote will decide.
And, unfortunately the people, including my own daughter, see only good in the Clintons.
I want to know how they are able to pull this off.
I guess, they are the Houdini performers of politics.
Ignorance of truth is a dangerous place from which to make an evaluation/judgment.
“What difference, now, does it make?”
Vince Foster had his fun with the Clintons and then paid the ultimate price.
Who says you can’t get a way with murder?
tim says
Hillary is in bed with SATAN !! nothing that EVIL woman does surprises me.(and it’s a VERY CROWDED BED!!!!)
Al Walters says
I agree, for the most part, with everything said above. However, as bad as the Clintons are (and they are definitely liars and murderers), in my opinion there is someone as bad, if not far worse than they, who is currently that lackey, no-nothing, treasonous puppet that’s been occupying the White House for the past 6+ years. He has single-handedly destroyed this great nation…he and his minions.
Ray says
The Saudi’s have camels to sleep with. Why would they ever sleep with a witch like HRC?
ter334 says
The reason money is the driving force in America is because of the fed res. The use of money as the medium of getting things done was effective in WWII since it allowed FDR to spend enough to build our military machine and beat the Nazi military machine Hitler built using money that created the rampant inflation that engulfed Germany. The big difference between Hitler’s inflation and ours since the end of WWII is the speed in which it was implemented. He did in say a decade. We have had “managed” inflation of 7 decades. Ours was slow acting financial poison which has resulted in the destruction of the dollar with untold billions in the hands of foreign govts which now are being used to destroy us as a nation.
This situation is almost like national financial suicide. Our elected officials have bought the fed res kool aide, or been bought is a more accurate description of the situation in PC DC. Where PC stands for political corruption due to too much money motivating political activities. Instead of the rule of law, the Constitution. .
Stefano Tatai says
Let me quote some of John Quincey Adams’ July 4, 1821 speech:
“She has abstained from interference in the concerns of others, even when conflict has been for principles to which she clings, as to the last vital drop that visits the heart.”
“But she goes not abroad, in search of monsters to destroy.”
“She might become the dictatress of the world.”
“She would be no longer the ruler of her own spirit….America’s glory is not dominion, but liberty.”
I whish America could have once more such a President.
