Hillary Rodham Clinton used her clout as secretary of state to do favors for foreign donors who gave millions to her family foundation — and who paid millions more to her husband, Bill, in speaking fees, a new book charges.

Records show that of the $105 million the former president raked in from speeches over 12 years, about half came during his wife’s four-year tenure at the State Department.

The claims in “Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich” come just a week after she launched her presidential campaign.

They raise questions about shady foreign money flowing into the Clinton Foundation — and what actions Hillary took in her official capacity in exchange for the cash.

“During Hillary’s years of public service, the Clintons have conducted or facilitated hundreds of large transactions,” writes author Peter Schweizer, according to The New York Times, which first reported the story.

“Some of these transactions have put millions in their own pockets.”

Continue reading this, as well as related articles on top government officials, including presidents, who have taken money from Muslim donors.

Schweizer — a former speech-writing consultant for President George W. Bush — said he found a clear “pattern of financial transactions involving the Clintons that occurred contemporaneous with favorable US policy decisions benefiting those providing the funds.”

One example of an alleged quid pro quo cited by the Times and other sources involved the State Department’s backing of a free-trade agreement with Colombia that benefited a company founded by a big donor to the Clinton Foundation.

Hillary opposed the trade deal when running for president in 2008 because of the South American country’s poor record on workers’ rights.

But then the company, Canadian-based Pacific Rubiales, and its founder, Clinton Foundation board member Frank Giustra, donated “millions” to the foundation, The International Business Times reported.

In 2010, the State Department under Hillary lauded Colombia’s human rights record, allowing Giustra’s company to reap huge profits.

The book also examines lucrative development contracts awarded to foundation donors following the devastating Haitian earthquake in 2010. And it reports that Hillary’s brother, Tony Rodham, sat on the board of a small North Carolina mining company that in 2012 got one of only two coveted “gold exploitation permits” from the government of Haiti — the first issued in more than 50 years, according to the website Breitbart.

Bill Clinton himself was paid $1 million by a Canadian bank and major shareholder in the Keystone XL oil pipeline as the State Department was considering the project, Schweizer charges.

Records show that Bill’s earnings from appearance fees — both foreign and domestic — spiked at $17 million in 2012, Hillary’s last year at State.

During Hillary’s four-year stint as secretary of state, the ex-president earned about $48 million of a $105 million speaking haul amassed between 2001 and 2013.

More than half of the $48 million was paid by companies in China, Japan, Canada, Russia, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and the Cayman Islands, among others.

The author writes that “of the 13 Clinton speeches that fetched $500,000 or more, only two occurred during the years his wife was not secretary of state.”

Bill Clinton is believed to be the richest living ex-president and one of the 10 wealthiest ever.

Most estimates put the power couple’s combined net worth at $100 million to $200 million.

Some of the fees were paid at the Clintons’ request to their foundation — netting domestic donors a fat tax break. But most went directly to Bill, and the fees make up the family’s main source of income, The Washington Post reported.

Following Hillary’s decision to run for president, the foundation itself announced last week it would accept donations only from Australia, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Canada, Germany and Norway.

The 186-page book will go on sale May 5, but Hillary wasted no time dismissing it.

“We’re back into the political season and, therefore, we will be subjected to all kinds of distraction and attacks and I’m ready for that. I know that that comes, unfortunately, with the territory,” she said Monday in Keene, NH.

“It is, I think, worth noting that the Republicans seem to only be talking about me. I don’t know what they’d talk about if I wasn’t in the race, but I am in the race and hopefully we’ll get on to the issues,” she added.

Allison Moore, spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee, responded by bringing up Hillary’s use of a private email account for official business and her deletion of thousands of emails.

John Kerry advocated for giving Iran nuclear fuel in 2004 campaign

- His top fundraiser was Iranian-American multimillionaire Hassan Nemazee, who also became chief fundraiser for Hillary Clinton.
- Nemazee was accused of being an Iranian government agent - He is now in federal prison for bank fraud.

Key points:

Multimillionare Hassan Nemazee served as campaign chief fundraiser for John Kerry. and then for Hillary Clinton.

Nemazee advocated for a resumption of normal diplomatic relations with Iran.

John Kerry, in his keynote address to the American Iranian Council, lamented President Bush’s inclusion of Iran in his “Axis of Evil”.

John Kerry advocated for providing nuclear fuel to Iran during his 2004 presidential campaign, while Bush was in favor of sanctions against Iran (let's not forget that the Bush family was closely linked to the Sunni Saudis, traditional adversaries of Shia Iran).

Investigative journalist Ken Timmerman said Iran, by funneling campaign contributions to Kerry-Edwards, was “seeking from Mr. Kerry a series of concessions that would allow them to become a nuclear weapons power.”

Nemazee’s history with Democratic Party politics stretches back to the Clinton administration, when Bill Clinton nominated him for an ambassadorial post.

President Clinton, with mediation from former president Jimmy Carter, provided nuclear fuel to North Korea (a friend of Iran), according to a deal that NK promptly violated.

Nemazee was accused by an Iranian dissident of being an agent for the Iranian government.

He was eventually charged with fraud and is now serving sentence in a federal prison.

The Clintons refused to return money from Iranian government front group. Man pardoned by Bill Clinton tied to Iranian foundation.

The Clinton Foundation's many foreign donors. Saudi Arabia is their third largest donor. Fundraising continued even while Hillary was Secretary of State.

White House accused of acting as an agent for Iran during the nuclear talks in Switzerland, and bullying other members to submit to Iran's demands without criticism.
