How Clinton Donor Got on Sensitive Intelligence Board - ABC News

the Clintons are as corrupt as a $3 bill.

and what makes this worse is that if questioned, she wouldn't think there was anything wrong with it.

"Newly released State Department emails help reveal how a major Clinton Foundation donor was placed on a sensitive government intelligence advisory board even though he had no obvious experience in the field, a decision that appeared to baffle the department’s professional staff.

The emails further reveal how, after inquiries from ABC News, the Clinton staff sought to “protect the name” of the Secretary, “stall” the ABC News reporter and ultimately accept the resignation of the donor just two days later."

If you can't admit Hillary is a corrupt liar, then you are a liar, severely uninformed, or a sheep.

Yes, Trump is a corrupt liar too.

The media is so disingenuous. I'm sure she will be asked a softball question about n this, with no follow ups. That being said, her supporters - including some of the highest ranking politicians in our country - truly don't care. Party over everything.

I take comfort that her lollipop answers won't appease James Comey. Though I truly can't believe OUR President (America's president, not dem or repub) endorses someone being criminally investigated by the FBI.

Looks like the SofS team agreed the guy did not belong there and got him out of the way. What do you find wrong with that?

One could defend his appointment but the argument is weak so they folded.

I am sure that will not be the last poor appointment to a board or embassy.

That he paid his way onto the board through HRC to begin with.

Of course like this one. And this one perceived as perhaps wrong and corrected. You object to fixing a bad appointment?

Keep digging. HRC KNEW he wasn't qualified for the INTELLIGENCE board but she let him pay his way on anyway.

"The appointment qualified Fernando for one of the highest levels of top secret access"

the guy had no business or credentials to be on an intelligence panel. this isn't some stupid UN panel. we're talking about top secret intelligence matters and national security. if you don't think this is a blatant lack of abuse, you're part of the problem.
