Is Hillary Clinton a slave to her donors?
Clinton’s State Department emails from her private server released by Wikileaks reveal a servant relationship with America’s wealthy elites.
She had regular conversations with frequent fundraiser Lynn Forester de Rothschild, including one exchange in 2010 in which Clinton played messenger and informed de Rothschild that former British Prime Minister Tony Blair would no longer be able to attend a speaking gig for the donor.
“I was trying to reach you to tell you Teddy and I asked Tony Blair to go to Israel as part of our full court press on keeping the Middle East negotiations going,” Clinton wrote.
“He told me that he has a commitment in Aspen w you two and the conference, but after we talked, he decided to go and asked me to tell you.
“He is very sorry, obviously, but I’m grateful that he accepted my request,” Clinton wrote. “I hope you all understand and give him a raincheck.
“Let me know what penance I owe you,” the Secretary of State wrote.
Rothschild most recently held a fundraiser for Clinton on August 20th on Martha’s Vineyard, according to the New York Post.
Donors paid up to $100,000 per couple to schmooze and influence Clinton.
“The Democratic presidential nominee and her right hand, Huma Abedin, are expected to spend the night at the oceanfront home featured last year in Architectural Digest. Lynn is one of Hillary’s most fervent supporters,” the Post reported.
