It's official. If Hillary is our nominee, all of Bill Clinton's business dealings are fair game.
We've all heard about Hillary Clinton's 5 million dollar loan to herself. It turns out that the loan was from funds jointly held with former President Bill Clinton.
Self-funding does mean new scrutiny of Clinton's cash: "At a news conference in Virginia, Clinton said she used 'my money' to loan herself the $5 million. Later, communications director Howard Wolfson said the $5 million came from joint assets she held with former President Clinton," Dan Morain and Peter Nicholas write in the Los Angeles Times.
"The New York senator has written books that have earned her at least $6.6 million. But much of her wealth appears to have come from her husband's business dealings since he left the White House seven years ago," they write. "In her most recent financial disclosure, Clinton reported a joint bank account and a blind trust each worth between $5 million and $25 million. She also disclosed that former President Clinton had earned millions in speaking fees -- as much as $350,000 a speech."
If Hillary's our nominee, all of Bill Clinton's business dealings, the library funding, it's going to be fair game.
It'll be a veritable treasure trove for the GOP.
