Veteran’s History
By
Israel Maxwell, Sr. Pastor, FCC
13
Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s
life for one’s friends.” John 15:13 NIV
Sacrifice is a crucial structure to any great society. Giving up
one’s life is seen as an ultimate sacrifice. Probably similar to
your family, my Maxwell clan has a long history of American
service. My grandfathers defended foreign soil in
World War II in order to preserve freedom. I have
relatives both current and past who served from the
Revolutionary War to Operation Enduring Freedom.
Whenever the topic of War was brought up, my grandfathers would often talk about the people who did not
have a chance to return.
They wouldn’t go into detail about the events
of what happened. My longest surviving grandfather,
Jim Maynard, went to be with the Lord last year. I
wish I had been more proactive to inquire about his
stories and the stories of his friends. I believe that one
of the greatest ways we can honor people who have
served and the friends who lost their lives is to tell
their stories. Jesus tells his disciples that they were
“his witnesses of these things.” The disciples honored
Christ’s sacrifice by telling the story of his life, death
and resurrection. We need to honor the men and
women in our family history. We must cherish and
pass on the stories of our family’s heroes to our children.

praying for someone, we should go by James 5:16 which tells us to “pray one for another that YOU may be
healed.” So praying for someone else's healing actually helps you! Using Mike’s special prayer below, we ask
every reader and subscriber reading this who feels moved by the Lord to please recite the following prayer suggested by Mike at least once on behalf of the First Covenant Church Members, Saxon Union Subscribers and their
friends and relatives named in the prayer (Initials are usually used for privacy reasons) and for anyone else you
feel has a need. YOUR PRAYERS REALLY DO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
“Father because our Bible, your word, tells us that Jesus Christ came that we might have life, and
have life more abundantly; and because you have instructed us to pray one for another; and because you
have told us in your word that your mercy endureth forever, we are therefore calling upon your wonderful
name Yahweh and asking that you pour out your spirit upon: Praise Reports: Dave Barley’s miraculous
recovery. Prayer: For Pastor’s new business he just launched. For Ken Kemble to feel better and his
foot to heal. For Tabatha. For Frank’s finger wound. For F3. And anyone else you want to pray for,
and supply their every need Father, according to your timing; your will; and your good pleasure, ‘For
thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever.’

wrote that Abraham was their father, as pertaining to the flesh.
They were exiles from their original homeland in Palestine, they were dispersed over a wide region. Finally,
to clinch the matter, Peter identified them in the second verse as "Elect, according to the foreknowledge
of God, the Father." But who were God's elect? In
Isaiah 45:4, God speaks of "Israel Mine elect". As to
the foreknowledge of God, remember that in Romans
11:2, Paul confirms that "God hath not cast away His
people which He foreknew". "Elect" is but another
word for "chosen". In Deuteronomy 7:6, the people of
Israel are told that "The Lord they God hath chosen
thee to be a special people unto Himself above all the
people that are upon the face of the earth".

and an holy nation." "A peculiar people" is another identifying
mark of Israel, for Deuteronomy 14:2 says, "For thou art an holy
people unto the Lord they God and the Lord hath chosen thee to
be A PECULIAR PEOPLE unto Himself above all the nations
that are upon the earth." Finally, "that ye should show forth the
praise of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous
light" is another identifying mark of Israel. In Isaiah 43:21 God
says, "This people have I formed for Myself; THEY SHALL
SHOW FORTH MY PRAISE."
I have skipped over the Epistle to the Hebrews, which is
not signed, but is usually credited to Paul. I can't imagine anyone
disputing that this book, as indicated by its title, is written TO, as
well as written about the Hebrews, the Israelites. Probably we
need no say more about it here. If I were to start in on that book,
it alone would take several broadcasts to cover. I will go into that
some other time.
What of the little understood Book of REVELATION?
It is too clear for any possible doubt that his book is written in
symbols and is not to be taken literally. But, you must understand
the symbols used in order to know the great realities for which
they stand. These symbols are, in general Israel symbols. Hence
it can be understood only by those who can recognize the Israel
basis of the symbols. This also is a book about which whole volumes have been written. It is too long for me to take up as just a
subdivision of our present theme of Israel in the New Testament.
But, we have covered enough to show that the New Testament and the Old Testament are just the two sides of the same
coin which has the same value, whichever side you look at. If
this were not so, we could not have confidence in either one of
them. Truth must always be consistent with itself. Jesus Christ
came not to take back God's promises and nullify the prophecies,
but rather, as Paul said in Romans 15:8, "Now I say that Jesus
Christ was a minister of the circumcision, for the truth of God, to
confirm the promises made unto the fathers."
All that had been promised to Abraham and Moses was
to be made good. Likewise, these promises to Abraham and
Moses included the basis for Christianity. In fact, Moses was a
Christian! Does that startle you, when you remember that Moses
died more than 1400 years before Christ was born? Yet the New
Testament tells us that Moses was a Christian. In Hebrews 11:2426, it says, "By faith, Moses when he was come to years, refused
to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, choosing rather to
suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season: ESTEEMING THE REPROACH OF
CHRIST greater riches than the treasure of Egypt: for he had
respect unto the recompense of the reward." Now it is certain that
he could not have "esteemed the reproach of Christ greater riches
than the treasures of Egypt" unless he truly understood what all
the rituals he taught the people really meant, that they talked of
the coming Redeemer. So it is that Hebrews 10:1 speaks of "the
Law having a shadow of the good things to come." The Book of
Hebrews explains how the rituals were only symbols of the coming of Christ and His sacrifice for us.
Therefore, never let anyone tell you that the two halves
of the Bible are inconsistent and that to accept one you must reject the other. No, the Bible is all one book. It tells of God's putting His sons and daughters on earth as His chosen people, Israel.
The great destiny He set for them. It tells of His foreknowledge
of their imperfections and sins and His provision from before the
foundation of the world of the Redeemer who would save His
people. Both Old and New Testaments are Christian books and
both of them are Israel books.
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD
by Kenneth C. Kemble, P. O. Box 5204, Uvalde, Texas 78802-5204
What is the most important thing in the world to me?
Ken & Donita Kemble
Is it life? I do want to live, but live for what? Is it liberty? I do want to
be free, but free to do what? Is it happiness? I do want happiness, but
with who, and to what end? Is it wealth? I do want wealth, but what is true wealth?
No, the most important thing in the world to me is a person, and He is the Lord Jesus Christ.
He is the way, the truth and the life, and I want it all. If I have Jesus, I have everything. If I
have all the wealth of this world and yet do not have Him, I have nothing.
The pleasures of this world will all pass, but He remains forever. In Him is life. In Him is true
liberty. In Him is the greatest happiness of all. And in Him, and only in Him, is found the greatest
treasure imaginable.
He is my confidence for today, my hope for tomorrow and my joy in sorrow. I love Him with all
my heart.
He gave His life for me. How could I give Him anything less?

Christ's birth is in scripture. The only thing they can

HEALTH MATTERS:
Letter To Frank From Dr. Sears: Mitochondrial DNA
Al Sears, MD
11905 Southern Blvd.
Royal Palm Beach, FL 33411
Dear Frank,
Telomere science changed everything
we knew about aging. But today, I want to talk to
you about the other half of the anti-aging equation.
Regular readers will already know by protecting your telomeres, you can slow — and even
reverse — the aging process.
You see, your telomeres are like little countdown clocks that protect the DNA in your cells.
They shorten with each cell division. And the
shorter they get the faster you develop the signs of
aging. So by protecting and nourishing them, you
can literally turn back the years.
I was one of the first doctors to put telomere
science to the test. And for years, I've been helping
patients measure, protect and lengthen their telomeres.
But I've also discovered that telomeres are
only HALF the story when it comes to aging. Let me
explain…
Telomeres protect the DNA inside the nucleus of each cell in your body. But there is other
DNA in each of your cells outside the nucleus.
You see, your cells also contain tiny organelles called mitochondria. These are the power
plants that turn fuel into energy. And your mitochondria have their own DNA and their own impact
on the aging process.
Mainstream medicine still ignores the antiaging power of mitochondria. But in today's letter,
I'm going to show you how to boost yours while at
home.
But first, let's look at why your mitochondria
are so important…
Each of your cells has at least one of these
tiny power plants. The average cell has 200. And
cells for important organs, like your heart and
brain, can have more than 10,000.
But here's the problem: As you age, these
tiny power plants become damaged and start to die
off. And you lose your capacity to make energy.
The first thing that happens is that your cellular energy takes a dive. You feel tired and fa-
tigued. But then they malfunction, and devastating
diseases can follow:
Schizophrenia and bipolar disease;
Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease;
Epilepsy, migraines, and nerve pain;
Loss of muscle control and balance;
Heart disease and strokes;
Fibromyalgia;
Blindness;
Diabetes;
Hepatitis C and cirrhosis.1
Today, this happens at a faster rate than
what your parents and grandparents experienced
because now we're living in a highly toxic environment. And exposure to toxic chemicals can cause
the body to age faster.
You see, today, we're faced with
"accelerated aging" because of environmental factors, such as cigarette smoke and ultraviolet rays
from the sun. And its effect can age you prematurely.
But there are ways to support mitochondria…
Here at the Sears Institute for Anti-Aging
Medicine, I help my patients prevent and repair
damage to the mitochondria.
And I do this not with Big Pharma meds, but
with nutrients. Here are just four of the nutrients I
recommend that have been proven to support your
mitochondria and boost energy.
CoQ10: Co-enzyme Q10 sparks your aging
cell engines to make more energy. And it's a potent
free radical scavenger, soaking up oxidized molecules before they cause damage.
I recommend taking 50 mg of CoQ10 daily. Look for
the ubiquinol form. It's more powerful and much
easier for your body to absorb.
Acetyl-L-Carnitine: The amino acid Lcarnitine plays a critical role in making energy in
your cells. It transports fatty acids into the mitochondria. There they can be burned for fuel. It also
carries toxic waste out before it can do damage.
But as you age, carnitine levels in your tissues drop.2 That's why you need acetyl-L-carnitine
(ALC). Your body converts L-carnitine to ALC. And
studies show when your mitochondria slow down,
ALC can fire them up again.3 Studies also show ALC
reverses the malfunction in

Identity, and the Absolute Sovereignty of God
mitochondria as you age. ALC can also improve
brain performance and increase neurotransmitters.4
The best source of L-carnitine is grass-fed
red meat. But you can also supplement. I suggest
taking at least 500 mg of ALC every day on an
empty stomach. Look for a formula with only Lcarnitine and not D, L-carnitine. D-carnitine is synthetic.
N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC): This amino acid
is also a powerful antioxidant. You see, NAC helps
make glutathione, the body's most powerful antioxidant. Glutathione is the main line of defense for
mitochondria. It helps prevent and repair oxidative
damage, thus protecting your mitochondria.6,7
And there's another reason I recommend NAC to
my patients. Studies show it protects your telomeres from oxidative damage.8 So it throws a one
-two anti-aging punch. I advise supplementing with
500 mg per day.
Rhodiola Rosea: This tough, little yellow
flower is native to the arctic mountains of Eastern
Siberia. And I've seen its power to energize my patients. In just a few months, they are visibly
younger and stronger. And they tell me they feel

ordinary Israelites who have distinguished themselves from the

Law. Heroic efforts will be made to spread out the awards
across the country so as not to pick on New York or California,
where the massive majority of brainwashed Israelite tools reside.
Jennifer Mary Nicholson, 37, was arrested after
police say she stripped off all her clothes and went on a
rampage at a Georgia Waffle House.
Investigators said Nicholson of Marietta, Ga., took
off all her clothes, punched a woman in the face and broke
her nose and then threw plates and other dishes at a window and at stunned patrons on Jan. 8, Fox 5 Atlanta reports.
The incident took place at the Waffle House restaurant in Kennesaw, about 27 miles north of Atlanta, the
station reported Thursday.
Jennie Box told the station Nicholson grabbed her
and then punched her.
“She came across and hit me in the nose, grabbed
me in the chest and made a second attempt to grab me in
the arm,” Box said. “She broke my nose, broke my glasses
that way, too.
Research proves what I've seen in my patients. Lab Rats given rhodiola were able to swim
25% longer before becoming exhausted.9 That's
because the herb helped trigger energy synthesis in
the mitochondria.
Rhodiola can also energize people. Just one
200 mg dose helped people in one study improve
their exercise endurance.10 In another study, students taking 100 mg of rhodiola every day improved their capacity to work. Their learning ability
increased by 61% and their fatigue levels dropped
by 30%.11
You can find rhodiola tea in your local health
food store. Or you can take it in capsule form. It's
also called golden root or roseroot. But make sure
you get a formula with enough of the herb's active
compounds. Look for an extract standardized to
contain at least 3% rosavins and 1% salidroside.

WHY HAVE THE JEWS NOT
BEEN ABLE TO FULFILL MOST
OF THE PROPHECIES GIVEN TO
ISRAEL? By Dave Barley
Today we know that the
Jews claim to be the
House of Israel, but instead of believing what
man has said, study what
God says. We know that
Jesus Christ in the Revelation to the apostle John
says that the people who
claim to be Jews are actually liars and are the Synagogue of Satan. (Rev. 2:9; 3:9)
Truth will always expose a lie, and the word of God is truth.
(John 17:17) God always makes a distinction between these
Jews and the House of Israel, His Chosen People. The Bible
says that Israel would: (a) be a GREAT nation (Gen. 12:2;
18:18; 46:3), not a little country which would be dependent
upon other nations for aid. (b) Have a VAST population
(Gen. 28:14; 49:22-26; Num. 23:10) not a minority race. (c)
Colonize and inhabit even the desolate (wilderness) places.
(Isa. 54:3; Ezk. 38:12). (d) Have a NEW land (II Sam. 7:10; 1
Chron. 17:9), not Palestine because they were already dwelling there when this future prophecy was given, (e) Be secure
in this new land (II Sam. 7:10), not true of Jews in Palestine.
(f) Be a land of unwalled villages (Ezk. 38:11), this also is
not true of the cities in Palestine which have walls and
barbed wire fences. (g) Totally be regathered into this land
(Ezk. 34:13). (h) Be regathered from the heathen (nonChristian) nations (Ezk. 36:24), this does not apply to the
Jews since they are not Christians. ( I ) Have a NEW name
(Isa. 62:2; 65:15), they would be named after the Lord —
Jesus Christ — Christians (Deut. 28:10). ( j ) Have a NEW
language (Isa. 28:11; Zeph. 3:9). (k) Lose trace of lineage and
identity (Hosea 2:6; 1:10; 2:17). (1) Have a NEW religion
with a new formula to support your mitochondria.
And it contains all the ALC, NAC, and rhodiola you
need. So stay tuned.

According to Dr. Scofield's note on Romans 11:26
we know that Israel has a God given mission which the Jews
have not fulfilled simply because they are not the nation of
Israel! Dr. Scofield says that Israel's duty was: (1) "to witness
to the UNITY of God in the midst of universal idolatry."
What nation has been the worldwide witness to the unity of
God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit? (2) "To illustrate
to the nations the blessedness of serving the true God." What
nation has shown all others the blessings which will come
from God when serving Him? What nation is known as
Christian and the land of blessings? (3) "To receive, preserve,
and transmit the scriptures." What nation today has accepted
God's Word, has kept publishing it, and has sent it to all parts
of the world? Have the Jews translated the Bible into the
modern foreign languages and sent out all the missionaries
with the Bible? (4) And "to be the human channel for the
Messiah." What nations sing "Make Me A Channel of Blessing Today?" What nation is the channel that Jesus Christ is
using today to reach and to bless the entire world?
Now can you more clearly see what Jesus meant
when He told the Jews "Therefore say I unto you (Jews), the
kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a
nation bringing forth the fruits thereof." (Matt. 21:43)
What nation or groups of people are still bringing forth the
fruits of God's kingdom?
"Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the
kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder,
which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and
old." (Matt. 13:52) If you are not instructed in the things of
the kingdom, then you have no treasure which is wisdom
and knowledge (Col. 2:3) of things in the New or the Old
Testament. Believe only the Bible!

You Can If You Will
By
John Lovell, DD, Founder FCC
THIS IS INDEED a day of complicated living. Tension marks every
step of our way! There has never
been a period in the history of the
world when things were as hard on
the nervous system as our daily
lives are today. Under such condiJohn Lovell
tions it is easy for one to get into
the habit of excusing himself for
not doing right, for disobeying the Lord, ignoring His divine commands, and doing things he should not do. Keep
in mind, however, that despite our modern way of living,
the Lord does not condone wrong-doing under any circumstances whatsoever.
Let us repeat our subject—"you can, if you will,"
In other words, if you will a thing, that is, wish it or want it
badly enough, you can have it, or you can do it. The Apostle Paul reminds us "I can do all things through Christ who
strengtheneth me." Concerning our will or desires, may we
be reminded, "Whosoever will, let him drink of the water of
life freely." Again, "Ask what ye wilt in my Father's name,
believing, and ye shall receive."
Let us remind you of our text. Daniel, a man of
God, upon seeing the king and his compatriots stuffing
themselves gluttonously on all kinds of concoctions, rich,
unhealthful foods, and consuming poisonous intoxicating
liquors, realized that these things did not make one mentally alert, physically well, or spiritually strong. Knowing
there was a better way of life, and that God would bless
him for living it, he made a resolution. He purposed in his
heart that he would not defile himself with the king's meat
and the wine he drank. Dan. 1:8: But Daniel purposed in
his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion
of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might
not defile himself. Thus, when the temptation was put before Daniel to consume such foods and beverages, there
was no question but that he would win and be an overcomer, for he had already purposed in his heart to do right.
So this message is a personal one dealing with one's purpose, aim, resolution, and determination to do right, to be
strong, to be adamant, to obey God, and to get the blessings
that come there from. In other words, this is a message on
being steadfast, resolute, dependable, and stable.
As we try to apply this principle to every day living, let us remind you emphatically that you can have the
following things, if you want them badly enough to pay the
price:
Domestic Happiness. A good definition of hell on
earth would be a broken, divided, unhappy home where the
husband and wife fuss, nag, accuse, and quarrel. It is so
easy to do this, with each blaming the other for everything,
feeling that the other one is all wrong, and that he is all
right. On the other hand, a good definition of heaven on
earth is a home where the husband and wife trust, love, and
believe in each other,
and they have tranquility,
security, happiness, and
peace. God meant it to be
this way. Seeing that
Adam was alone, He
took from him a portion
of his body, from which
He made a helpmate, or
companion, that they
might walk along life's journey together, being companions, lovers, and helpers. There is only one thing involved
in the matter of an unhappy home, and that is—do the husband and wife want tranquility and happiness? If they do,
they can have it. Let them be willing to put into practice
the golden rule, and they can have a happy home. Make a
list of everything that your companion does which displeases and irritates you. Let the other one make such a list;
let each one confess his wrongs; let each one ask God to
help him overcome his faults. Observe the family altar service daily—read the Word of God and pray. Love one another, trust one another, be good, kind, and thoughtful of
one another. You will find that your domestic problems
will be solved and you will have happiness, harmony,
peace, and tranquility in the home!
Faith. Would you like to have more faith than
what you have? Would you like to receive more blessings
than you are now receiving? Would you like for God to
honor your prayers? You may have all of these things and
more if you want them. So many people are heard to say
that they would like to have more faith, and that if they
were a minister, missionary, broadcaster, or some outstanding religious personality, they would have more faith.
The truth is, many such people don't have faith. You have
as much faith as they have, and we all have enough faith,
as God's children, to obtain and receive His blessings, if
only we will act upon the Word of God and use what faith
we have. God says if we have as much faith, relatively
speaking, as the size of a grain of mustard seed we can do
mountainous things for God. Satan is honored and pleased
when he can get people to believe that this matter of faith is
complicated, that it is bound up in the religious, theological
matter, and that it is difficult to understand. But we want to
tell you that it is all very plain and simple, in the reach of
everybody. The Word says, "Whatsoever ye shall ask in my
Father's name, believing, ye shall receive"- Suppose someone offers you a watch, if you will come and get it. Does it
require a lot of complicated machinery for you to step up
and get the watch? None whatsoever; nor does it require
anything big, unusual, complicated, or religiously difficult

CLINTON SCANDALS
The Clintons have kept reporters busy for decades,
with an almost endless string of scandals following them
around since Bill Clinton was first elected to public office
in 1977 as Arkansas’ Attorney General. After Clinton’s
two terms in the White House – bookended by news reports on Whitewater and Monica Lewinsky – focus shifted
squarely to Hillary Clinton, who logged years in the Senate, at the State Department and on her own campaign trail.
As Clinton mounts her second presidential bid this
year, the particularly bruising scandal involving her email
system while at the State Department continues to snap up
headlines. InsideGov examines this controversy and a
handful of others

Foster’s Grave Stone staff as the deputy White House
counsel when Clinton was elected in
1992, but struggled with depression after the move to D.C.
Foster committed suicide on July 20, 1993; he was found
dead in a suburban Virginia park from a gunshot wound to
his mouth, the revolver still in his hand. Multiple investigations ruled Foster’s death a suicide, but some people remain convinced it was a cover-up.

filed a civil suit in January 1994, seeking $700,000 in damages; ultimately, the parties settled out of court where
Jones was awarded $850,000. Fast-forward to May 2015,
when Jones did an interview with the Daily Mail Online
and said that Hillary Clinton is not fit to be president because of Bill Clinton’s actions. “There is no way that she
did not know what was going on, that women were being
abused and accosted by her husband,” Jones said in the
article. “They have both lied.”
FBI BACKGROUMD
REPORTS: During investigations related to
Travelgate, the House
Committee on Oversight
and Government Reform
found the Clinton administration amassed upwards
of 700 FBI background
reports on Republicans,
many of them officials
from previous GOP administrations. There was some dispute about how Craig Livingstone, the director of the Office of Personnel Security and the person who requested
the background checks, came to have such a prominent role
in the White House. Some asserted that Hillary Clinton had
“highly recommended” him for the job and that she was
friends with Livingstone’s mother, but an affidavit from the
mother revealed she did
not know the first lady.
THE MONICA
YEARS: Former President Bill Clinton has
been dogged by sexual
harassment charges
throughout his political
Monica & Bill
career. But Bubba’s socalled zipper problem
hit an apex in the late ’90s when the Monica Lewinsky
scandal came to light, linking the president to a White
House intern, as well as a number of other women who
accused him of harassment. When Hillary Clinton defended her husband on the “Today” show in January 1998,
she memorably described the situation as a “vast rightwing conspiracy." An unquestionable whopper of a trans-
www.1stcovenantchurch.org THE SAXON UNION PAGE 14
gression for Bill, Hillary’s public assertion of a premeditated scheme meant she got caught up in the scandal, too.
DODGING SNIPER
FIRE OVERSEAS:
During her first campaign for the the White
House in 2008, Hillary
Clinton spoke about a
trip abroad as the first
Hillary & Chelsea lady, describing “landing under sniper fire” at

week after the comments, her campaign said she “misspoke,” and a few days
after that, Clinton said she “made a mistake” in her recounting of the events.
FUGITIVE FUNRAISER:
Norman Hsu was a prominent Democratic fundraiser in the
early 2000s, raising hundreds of
thousands of dollars for the party
and candidates, as well as contributing to the Clinton Global Initiative, an arm of the Clinton Foundation. During Hillary Clinton’s first
presidential campaign, Hsu was a
so-called bundler, someone who
collects campaign contributions
Hsu
from multiple people and delivers
the cash to one candidate. But
when it was discovered that Hsu was a fugitive, wanted for
fraud charges in 1992, Clinton returned $850,000 in donations that were somehow tied to him.
STEALING from 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. :
A Government Accountability Office report found that
Bill & Hillary
“damage, theft, vandalism
and pranks” occurred at the
White House in the transition between the Clinton and
Bush administrations, to the
tune of more than $13,000.
Questions also arose about
whether or not items that the Clintons moved from the
White House to their new home in Chappaqua, N.Y., were
gifts to them personally or were intended to remain at the
White House. The Clintons ultimately returned the items,
but Hillary Clinton, at the time a freshman senator, caught
flack from her new colleagues for accepting gifts totaling
$190,000.
CASH FOR CATTLE:
In the late 1970s, Hillary
Clinton made close to $100,000 on
cattle futures trading based on advice from a personal friend who
was, at the time, a top legal adviser to Tyson Foods Inc.
During that time, Tyson was one of the largest employers
in Arkansas. According to a 1994 New York Times article
investigating the Clintons’ finances, while Bill Clinton was
the governor, Tyson did well, receiving, for example, $9
million in government loans and appointments to important
state boards.
MO’ MONEY, MO’ SPEACHES:
The whole Clinton family – Bill, Hillary
and Chelsea – are highprofile gets for event
speeches. But where they
decide to speak, their fees
and the content of the
Hillary and Chelsea
talks have come under
scrutiny in regard to conflicts of interest. Chelsea Clinton,
for example, directed a $65,000 fee in 2014 to the foundation; Hillary Clinton did the same with her $300,000 fee for
a speech at UCLA. However, financial disclosure forms
show Hillary Clinton reported personal income of more
than $11 million for 51 speeches in a 13-month span. The
Clintons haven’t said how they decide to designate their
speaking fees as income versus charity work.
WHITEWATER, THE
Whitewater Witness
FIRST DOMINO:
Being Sworn In
Whitewater has become
shorthand for the string of scandals
that have dogged the Clintons
since their years in Arkansas. Bill
and Hillary Clinton joined their
friends Jim and Susan McDougal
in purchasing a few hundred acres
of land along the White River in the Ozarks, with the longterm plan to turn a profit by sectioning off lots for vacation
homes. The land deal was a failure, and investigations into
the labyrinth of business arrangements revealed a string of
shady transactions and questionable practices. But the biggest consequence of Whitewater – a fairly dry legal scandal
– was that it ultimately led to Kenneth Starr’s investigations. It was Starr’s panel that brought to light President
Clinton’s relationship with White House intern Monica
Lewinsky, a decidedly more made-for-TV scandal.
FOLLOWING THT MONEY AT THE CLINTON FOUNDATION
After Bill Clinton left
the White House, he kicked off
his post-presidency with the
Clinton Foundation, a nonprofit with a ballooning list of
issue areas, ranging from
global health to climate change
to women’s rights. But with
both Bill and Hillary Clinton’s wide-ranging political connections and deep involvement in

multiple government sectors, questions of conflicts of interest came up early and often. When Hillary Clinton became the Secretary of State in 2009, the former president
said he would disclose his foundation’s donors, among
other agreed-upon stipulations. But in spring 2015, a blockbuster book titled “Clinton Cash” investigated donations
from foreign entities to the foundation, claiming the State
Department (under Hillary Clinton’s tenure) doled out favors to the donors.
PROBLEMS WITH PARDONS:
Former President Bill Clinton handed out many
pardons during his time in office, including 140 on his last
day in the White House, but few were as controversial as
the one he delivered to Marc
Rich. The fugitive fled to Switzerland in the ’80s when he
learned he would be indicted on
65 criminal counts, including
tax evasion, fraud and working
with Iran during the hostage crisis. Rich’s pardon was among
Clinton’s last-day sprint, and
came under much scrutiny after
it was found that Rich’s first
wife, Denise, had contributed
$450,000 to the foundation for
Marc Rich
the Clinton Presidential Library and $100,000 to Hillary Clinton’s Senate campaign.
HOMEBREW EMAIL SERVER:
While serving as Secretary of
State, Hillary Clinton worked
off of a private email server at
her New York home. Since her
emails were not archived on official, government-run servers,
Clinton aides decided which
emails to hand over to the State
Department – and opted to delete notes they labeled as personal (the FBI reportedly has been able to retrieve the deleted emails). The FBI is investigating the security of the
server, not Clinton herself, especially since classified information had been found in some of the correspondence.
BENGAZI ATTACK
In September 2012, four Americans died in attacks
on a diplomatic compound and
CIA outpost in Benghazi,
Libya, including Ambassador
Christopher Stevens. Questions
Clinton Testifying
on how the Obama administration reacted to the incident led
to a House select committee
investigation of the events, with emphasis on what Secretary of State Hillary Clinton knew before, during and after
the attacks. The committee’s ongoing investigations and
hearings revealed Clinton’s complicated email account and
server setup.
