Bill Clinton cashes in on struggling nonprofit hospital, Gets $225,000 in speaking fees as workers laid off
“Damn, it feels good to be a crony…”
(From The Washington Times)
The $225,000 payment wasn’t made public by the hospital on its annual Internal Revenue Service forms, but rather appeared among dozens of lucrative speeches by Mr. Clinton reported on his wife’s final ethics filing as secretary of state.
“No disrespect to Bill Clinton, but that money could’ve gone a long way and been put to better use,” said Dan Fields Jr., president of the Service Employees International Union Local 722 representing hospital workers.
