Another Clinton Scandal: Will The Destroyer Be Destroyed?

Corruption: If Hillary Clinton thought that her family's foundation was no longer an anchor weighing down her presidential campaign, she was mistaken. A news bimbo has erupted and it's a big one.

When the first Clinton-for-president campaign was (draft) dodging its way toward the White House in 1992, it was interrupted by a series of "bimbo eruptions" — a phrase used to describe allegations by women who said that Bill was involved in extramarital affairs with them. Those volcanos were reportedly snuffed out by a vicious and power-hungry Hillary.

"Hillary took care of all the bimbo eruptions, of which there were thousands, in order to present to the world an electable candidate," Linda Tripp, a White House employee early in the first Clinton term and a Monica Lewinsky confidante, told the Daily Mail this week.

"In this endeavor she was ruthless. She destroyed women so that their stories never saw the light of day."

Hillary has her own eruption this week, but it's not a woman. It's a report that suggests that as secretary of state she intervened on behalf of Swiss bank UBS and was paid by UBS for her work.

Early during Hillary's tenure, UBS was in trouble with the U.S. government. The IRS wanted the identities of Americans who held secret accounts at the bank.

But the bank had a problem. It was bound to secrecy by Swiss law.

A few months later, Hillary announced what was in essence a compromise between UBS and the IRS. After this intervention, according to the reports, UBS donations to the Clinton Foundation reached roughly $600,000 by the end of 2014, up from less than $60,000 just six years earlier.

The bank also paid Bill $1.5 million. All he had to do was join Bob McCann, a UBS executive, in a series of economic forums.

Suspicion of a quid pro quo is further validated by media reports that UBS loaned $32 million to entrepreneurship and inner-city programs that the Clinton Foundation was involved in.
