Mrs Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee, has been criticised for using an unauthorized private e-mail system run from a server in the basement of her home while she was secretary of state from 2009 to 2013, a decision she says was wrong and that she regrets.

“In a hysterical press release, Judicial Watch denounced this request as an outrageous example of unethical and possibly illegal behavior, because “by 2010, [the crown prince] had contributed $32 million” to CGI [the Clinton Global Initiative]”.
“It is outrageous to misrepresent Secretary Clinton’s basis for meeting with these individuals”, spokesman Brian Fallon said. Clinton’s running mate Tim Kaine will be in Florida later this week.
For example, in a case reported past year by the New York Times, a Canadian firm that donated $2.35 million to the foundation received approval from then-Secretary of State Clinton to sell control of one-fifth of USA uranium production from 2009 to 2013. He has to continue to unite the party at the grassroots level while trying to bring independents and moderates under the GOP umbrella with a message of economic success achieved with a Republican majority here in Florida.
Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump fiercely criticized the links between the Clinton Foundation and the State Department.
The 725 pages of emails, which were obtained by conservative watchdog Judicial Watch as part of a freedom of information request and released on August 22, are adding to the concerns that Clinton improperly used her official position to favor donors-a claim her campaign has denied. Bill Clinton said Wednesday that the foundation has begun looking for partners to take over some of its work in preparation for that outcome.
Some of the email was between Huma Abedin, Clinton’s deputy chief of staff at the State Department, and an official at the charity. He added that “meeting requests, recommendations and proposals come to the department through a variety of channels, both formal and informal”. Those planned changes would not affect more than 6,000 donors who have already provided the Clinton charity with more than $2 billion in funding since its creation in 2000.
“The point is, she can’t just walk away from these 6,000 donors”, he said. She said that the public knows more about the Clinton Foundation than Trump’s wealth and his business interests. When the Department of State is doing that same work?

Wasserman has donated between $5 million and $10 million to the Clinton Foundation through his Wasserman Foundation.

And in June 2011, Clinton met with Nancy Mahon of MAC AIDS, the charitable arm of MAC Cosmetics, which is owned by Estee Lauder. And it’s true that the foundation puts its funds to good use.
