The latest is from 2000 when Bill Clinton pardoned Marc Rich if he paid all his taxes to a total of $100 million. What does Bill Clinton say about his decision? "When you look at it, it all makes sense." Why wouldn't it? The USA would receive $100 million US.
The gossip is this. Mr. and Mrs. Rich were big political donors.
The facts are Marc Rich was pardoned as one of the last acts of Bill Clinton's presidency. I doubt the former president was expecting any more fund raising for his political aspirations.

Denise Rich is gone. (click here) Denise, what a time we had! Denise has gone to “Europe,” a vaguely mystical place. She’s a woman of the world now. She will carry an Austrian passport even though she was born in Worcester, Massachusetts. I will miss her. Despite Denise’s strange adventure with Bill Clinton, the pardon, and her ex husband Marc–who can only return to the U.S. if he pays back taxes totaling more than $100 million–she became a popular, fun figure. No kidding. She has dimples, a hearty laugh and a sweet nature.
In the mid 90s, Denise wrote a song called “New York, I Love You.” Bobby Zarem pushed it every single day in the NY Post in Neal Travis’s column. Denise also started writing songs with lots songwriters, became friendly with Clive Davis, opened a little record label. She also started her foundation for cancer research and raised a lot of money. That money is credited with funding a lot of successful projects including the drug Gleevec at Novartis.
Denise is being called a tax evader in the press. I don’t know. If that was her intention, she learned from the best. Marc Rich is the enemy of the people. He left the U.S. in a tax dispute, became a federal felon, bribed his way to a pardon, and still remains aloof, elusive, rich as hell, and completely above all world laws. He also for years operated his company Novarco from White Plains, New York. A decade ago I wrote extensively about how he’d made monkeys of all of us, and how the government- Democrat and Republican–had looked the other way. Business just went on and on. It was only when he feared that Paul O’Neill, an enemy, would become Secretary of the Treasury under George W. Bush, that he aggressively sought out his pardon. And Bill Clinton gave it to him....
Here is more hate of women by FOX. Hillary Clinton does not have control over her husband or his pardon pen.
Mr. Rich's wife of the time was and perhaps still is a fund raiser for her political interests. There is absolutely no doubt Denise Rich has been a much appreciated donor to the Democratic Party and their candidates.
Denise Rich was never charged in any crime. She knew nothing about her husband's business dealings. Maybe she was too busy fund raising.
The gossip wants to link Marc Rich to any ambitions to Hillary Clinton and that is why the pardon was issued. Really?

Hillary Clinton is not responsible for any fund raiser, the monies they donate, especially if they are dead. Where does the right wing get the nerve to attempt to defame a highly qualified woman? This is one of the most outrageous allegations made against a woman running for office. Somehow, the pardon of Marc Rich is suppose to reach from the grave to elect someone into the presidency.
Americans do run fund raisers. They do contribute to democratic candidates. FOX has no right to begin such garbage in the news to defame highly qualified candidates.
This is the quality of journalism at FOX. They reach into the bottom of the barrel of gossip and resurrect it as if it happened today. They are counting on no one watching who cares to look up the facts to advocate for Hillary Clinton. They expect their viewers to drink up the gossip and run with it.
FOX is garbage and they maintain their ratings with half trusts and flat out lies. When is this going to end? How long is the American woman going to have to put up with blatant sexism?

Billionaire Marc Rich, (click here) who invented oil trading and was pardoned by President Bill Clinton over tax evasion, racketeering and busting sanctions with Iran, died on Wednesday in Switzerland aged 78.
Rich fled the Holocaust with his parents for America to become the most successful and controversial trader of his time and a fugitive from U.S. justice, enjoying decades of comfortable privacy at his sprawling Villa Rosa on Lake Lucerne.
Belgian-born Rich, whose trading group eventually became the global commodities powerhouse Glencore Xstrata, died in hospital from a stroke, spokesman Christian Koenig said....
