THE SEAN HANNITY SHOW

Clinton Foundation Bombshells
The bad news just keeps on coming for Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation. Here are some of the stories that have broken just over the last day related to Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation.

Among the biggest bombshells is this report from The New York Times, "Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation as Russians Pressed for Control of Uranium Company."  The entire article is worth a read, but here's what happened in a nut shell.  
Russia's atomic energy agency started buying control of a Canadian uranium production company, Uranium One.  This is a deal that had to be approved by U.S. agencies, including the State Department, because uranium is a strategic national security asset.  Hillary Clinton happened to be the head of the State Department at the time when this was approved.
But at the same time that the Russians were buying these Canadian uranium assets, the chairman of the company made several undisclosed donations to the Clinton Foundation, totaling $2.35 million.  
Furthermore, "shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One, Mr. Clinton received $500,000 for a Moscow speech from a Russian investment bank with links to the Kremlin that was promoting Uranium One stock."

 Certainly, this can't look good. 
  
It's Not Just The Russians
Another report from The Intercept outlines how the government of Morocco went to great lengths to court Hillary Clinton during her time as Secretary of State.  Remember that the Clinton Foundation has accepted $1 million from a company, which is controlled by the King of Morocco, and they are holding a foundation event there in May.

The Washington Examiner has done an analysis which shows that many corporations that donated to the Clinton Foundation just so happened to win prestigious State Department awards while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State.

And to top things off, Reuters reports that the Clinton Foundation will refile as many as five annual tax returns.  This because investigations by Reuters reveal errors in reported donations from foreign governments.  According to the report, "The charities' errors generally take the form of under-reporting or over-reporting, by millions of dollars, donations from foreign governments, or in other instances omitting to break out government donations entirely when reporting revenue."  For example, from 2010-2012, the Clinton Foundation reported that it is did not receive any money from foreign and U.S. governments.  That was simply not the case.
This is only going to get worse for Hillary Clinton, not better.  The dubious nature of the Clinton Foundation's acceptance of foreign cash, its political influence and the lack of transparency represents everything that Americans fear when it comes to politics, power, money and corruption.
