Clintons earned $28 million past year
The Clintons’ average federal tax rate during that eight-year period works out to 31.6 percent.

The Clintons donated almost 11 per cent of their income to charity in 2014, according to her tax return.
In 2013, however, she accepted $1,575,000 from Wall Street banks that have been blamed for their roles in the 2008 financial crisis, including $675,000 from Goldman Sachs, and $225,000 each from UBS Wealth Management, Bank of America, Morgan Stanley and Deutsche Bank.
Only Hillary Clinton could try to get away with slamming her Republican opponents for siding with the wealthy at the same time disclosing she’s filthy rich. The former Florida governor last month made 33 years of his taxes public.
She has vowed, if elected, to revive a push in Congress to institute the so-called Buffett rule, named for billionaire investor Warren Buffett, which would impose a minimum tax rate of 30 per cent on anyone making more than US$1 million a year. Topics range from the mundane, like the Secretary’s request to read an op-ed page to A Planned Parenthood executive contacting Secretary Clinton about a trip to Kenya, to an email from unofficial advisor Sydney Blumenthal regarding President Obama’s policy in Afghanistan. But, Clinton argued, history proves that engagement forces change more quickly than sanctions.
“I will look to the Cuban-American community to continue leading the way”, said Clinton.
“Families like mine that reap rewards from our economy have a responsibility to pay our fair share”, the letter said.
She was compensated for days that she was instead working for the Clinton Foundation and for a Clinton-linked consulting firm, on maternity leave or vacationing in Europe with hubby Anthony Weiner, an internal probe found.
The returns show numerous paid speeches and appearances by her husband around the world and her own stint as a private speaker after she resigned from her diplomatic post in February 2013. But the organization later moved to reopen the case after it was revealed that Clinton, who is running for the Democratic presidential nomination, used a private email account and separate server located in her New York home for government business. The Clintons have previously released tax returns going back to 1977 during earlier campaigns and while in the White House.
“She is in excellent physical condition and fit to serve as president of the United States“, she said.
If that wasn’t enough, it all came on the heels of two major speeches, as well.
It addresses Clinton’s health in 2012, when she sustained a concussion after fainting – a result of a stomach virus and dehydration.
During follow-up evaluations concerning the concussion, Clinton was found to have a blood clot in her head, the doctor said.
Representatives for both the Clinton campaign, of which Abedin is the vice chairwoman, and the State Department declined to comment, per the Post. She recalled Cuba shooting down two civilian American plans in 1996, damaging her husband’s quiet attempts to forge a better relationship with Fidel Castro.
There was no mention of Clinton’s height or weight.
The doctor noted that Clinton’s father lived into his eighties and her mother into her nineties.
She does not smoke and drinks alcohol occasionally, the statement said.
