Its hard to believe that the Obama administration and its hideously politicized Justice Department would ever indict Ms. Clinton, given that President Barack Obama picked her for secretary of state and its clear favoritism toward her in the presidential race. But there is massive evidence that shows financial abusesincluding money launderingat the Clinton Foundation and overwhelming evidence that donors were helped by Ms. Clinton.
To take one of so many examples, theres the case of Clinton Foundation donor Claudio Osoriowho is now housed at a federal prison serving 12 years for fraudwho in 2010, with Ms. Clintons (and Bill Clintons) help, won a $10 million loan from the Overseas Private Investment Corporation.
SNIP
To sum up here, a corrupt Venezuelan banker hired a lobbyist close to Hillary Clinton, made a donation to her familys foundation and has been allowed to live in the United States without fear of prosecution in his homeland. At a time that Hillary Clinton was secretary of state, the Obama Administration staged what can only be described as a political prosecution of an honest man and long-time government employee.
Mr. Raffanello has concluded this about Hillary Clintons campaign: I learned a lot about her and her family when I was in the government, and how they are put together, he said. She is a person who will say and do anything in order to get elected president. I dont think shes going to win, but theres nothing she wont do while trying.

Camps Bansalot? That's the Bernie group. That article also cites Andrew Napolitano, of FAUX News.

The more I learn about Hillary, the less I like Obama. That's how she tarnished him to me.

The Gains From the Economic Recovery Are Still Limited to the Top One Percent
snip
Emmanuel Saez, the economics professor who crunches these numbers based on data provided by the Internal Revenue Service, has just released preliminary estimates for 2013. The share of total income (excluding capital gains) going to the top 1 percent remains above one-sixth, at 17.5 percent. By this measure, the concentration of income among the richest Americans remains at levels last seen nearly a century ago.
