People pay good money to listen to professional liars.

The 34-year-old Clinton, the daughter of the former president and ex-secretary of state, can command as much as $75,000 per speech. Her speaking fees were first reported by The New York Times.

A spokesman for the Clinton Foundation, Kamyl Bazbaz says Clinton's speeches are made on its behalf and it receives 100 percent of the fees.

My thoughts.....What a wonderful tax dodge.

That's exactly what it is.  The Foundation provides everything for her at premium conditions for the junket, she gets the benefit of that and then offsets any other income she has with a $75K 'charitable deduction,' allowing her to basically pay zero taxes.

"My dad got a blowjob, my mom's an idiot and stayed with him because she's a power mad bitch."

Anything more than that and I wouldn't believe her.  Okay, I'd believe her FIL is an ex-con.

Hell, for that matter, her DAD is a convicted felon: agreeing to plead guilty at the end of his term as President still counts.
