Goodness gracious, SEC busted a company Hillary gave a speech for a $335,000 donation, for bribes and influence peddling. Isn't that a coincidence?
A tech company that paid Hillary Clinton $335,000 to give a speech in 2014 settled a dispute last week with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which claims the corporation repeatedly bribed foreign political officials to promote its products and gain a business advantage.
Qualcomm, a wireless telecommunications company based in San Diego, paid $7.5 million to settle the SEC probe. In a statement announcing the settlement last week, the commission accused the company of violating the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act between 2002 and 2012 by hiring unqualified relatives of Chinese officials and providing them with luxury gifts that had “no valid business purpose.”
Gets better......
Clinton spoke at Qualcomm’s Wireless Reach conference in October 2014. Critics noted that the $335,000 speech payment was more than Bernie Sanders’s entire net worth.
Even better.....
Qualcomm has also worked closely with the Clinton Global Initiative, and contributed between $100,000 and $250,000 to the Clinton Foundation. The company’s co-founder, Irwin Jacobs, is a major fundraiser for Hillary Clinton’s campaign and Super PAC. Jacobs retired from Qualcomm’s board in 2012, and he is not named as a defendant in the civil suit.
