Chelsea Clinton gets $75,000.00 speaking fees

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.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

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.

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

I posted this story over at my other forum and subsequent to it, almost got banned.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

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