21. Hillary has taken millions from 7 of 14 banks in a lawsuit for rigging interest rates
Thu May 19, 2016, 07:49 PM
May 2016

She was paid MILLIONS of dollars collectively from these too big to fail banks for speeches at a going rate over $200k for each speech:

Goldman Sachs
Citigroup
JP Morgan
Morgan Stanley
UBS
Bank of America
Deutsche Bank AG

(Another bank on the list HSBC has paid Bill Clinton to speak as well. Many of these banks have also given millions more to her foundation.)

This is epitome of Wall Street corruption and Hillary is willing to take millions in cash from these corrupt banks. This isn't the only criminal investigations or lawsuits that these banks have been involved with either. They have a long and sordid history of such things.

Hillary has already said she doesn't support bringing back a new Glass Steagall bill to break these too big to fail banks up. Banks that are obviously doing things that ALREADY violate US laws and the public trust.

And the American people are suppose to just trust her that all this income won't effect her decisions in regards to regulating and policing these corrupt banks?

U.S. judge rejects 14 banks' bid to throw out rate-rigging lawsuit

A federal judge in Manhattan on Monday rejected an effort by 14 of the world's biggest banks to throw out a private lawsuit accusing them of rigging an interest rate benchmark used in the $553 trillion derivatives market.

U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman said investors led by several pension funds and municipalities could pursue federal antitrust claims over an alleged conspiracy to rig "ISDAfix" from 2009 to 2012, and breach of contract and unjust enrichment claims against most defendants. Other claims were dismissed.

The defendants include Bank of America Corp, Barclays Plc, BNP Paribas SA, Citigroup Inc, Credit Suisse Group AG, Deutsche Bank AG, Goldman Sachs Group Inc, HSBC Holdings Plc, JPMorgan Chase & Co, Morgan Stanley, Nomura Holdings Inc, Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc, UBS AG and Wells Fargo & Co.

~Snip~

Banks were accused of rigging ISDAfix for their own gain by executing rapid trades just before the rate was set each day, called "banging the close"; and causing ICAP to delay trades until they moved ISDAfix where they wanted, and post rates that did not reflect market activity....

The entire surface of your body is its own ecological system, host to microbes, fungi, nematodes, mites and other arthropods, and all sorts of things. Within that surface is an entire world of flora and fauna, creatures and plants and stranger things all slipping through your hollow places, between your cells and in your fluid ducts.

You don't have to go through the efforts of making silly posts like this if you want to make yourself feel useful! Remember, you are the entire universe to billions and billions of living things, and that's amazing.
