- Despite repeated requests by Ambassador Stevens to provide more security in Benghazi, Hillary Clinton failed to do so, withheld the truth and backed UN Secretary Susan Rice’s claim that the attack killing Stevens and three other Americans was due to a “YouTube video”. Hillary quoted during testimony “What difference does it make?” Under the increasing pressure of Benghazi questions, Hillary suddenly keeled over with a brain clot to conveniently dodge further questioning. General Petraeus was soon engulfed in scandal with his mistress Broadwell, retiring from the CIA and out of sight for months thereafter, conveniently ducking from his hot seat. Clinton resigned as Secretary of State, evading any further scrutiny as the Ambassador’s boss most responsible for the deaths of the four Americans. The FBI team sent in to investigate the Benghazi murders never even arrived at the crime scene until three weeks after the attack, making sure that vital forensic evidence could be conveniently lost, confiscated or destroyed. Despite having videotape that allowed individual attackers to be identified by name, they all still remain free to this day. Eleven months after the attack the US Justice Department last August in a hollow gesture officially charged the alleged suspects in a sealed indictment. But without them in custody, it means nothing.
- TravelGate: In May 1993, Hillary Clinton wrote an infamous note demanding action to “get our people” into the White House Travel Office. Billy Dale, its director, and six of his employees were quickly fired on the basis of rumors that they had engaged in criminal conduct; the rumors were cooked up in part by a 25-year-old cousin of Bill Clinton’s who wound up running the travel office. Dale was indicted on charges of embezzling $88,000 from the office. Jurors took only two hours to acquit him of all charges. Hillary Clinton refused an interview request from the General Accounting Office about her role in the affair.
- WhiteWater Scandal. The fraudulent land scheme, masterminded by Hillary and key witness Jim McDougal (who also mysteriously died in prison), while Hillary was a partner of the Rose Law Firm – also the firm of Vince Foster and Webster Hubbell, who later moved to D.C. with the Clintons to the White House Counsel's office with their "legal expertise." Hubbell was later indicted, tried and convicted for tax fraud. Foster turned up dead in Fort Marcy Park, as he was a material witness for then independent counsel Whitewater criminal investigation.
- ChinaGate – A scheme whereby the Clinton-Gore presidential campaign of 1996 took bribes from communist Chinese banks and their government to bankroll the president's and the Democratic Party's re-election efforts due to their low standing in the polls. It was the lawsuit brought against Secretary of Commerce Ron Brown, that uncovered where at Hillary's instruction, seats were sold on Department trade missions to China and elsewhere.
- A frequent speaker of the Council of Foreign Relations (CFR) Hillary Clinton outlined her vision of the “global agenda” and how a “global consensus” should be formed to help shape it by means of a “global architecture”. “I am delighted to be here in these new headquarters. I have been often to, I guess, the mother ship in New York City, but it’s good to have an outpost of the Council right here down the street from the State Department.” “We get a lot of advice from the Council, so this will mean I won’t have as far to go to be told what we should be doing”. http://www.state.gov/secretary/rm/2009a/july/126071.htm

- Hillary Clinton voted YES on U.S.-Singapore Trade. This bill (H.R. 2739) would implement a trade agreement to reduce tariffs and trade barriers between the United States and Singapore. A similar bill, the U.S.-Chile Trade Agreement (H.R. 2738), was presented to Congress at the same time as the U.S.-Singapore Trade Agreement. These are the first in a series of bilateral and regional free trade agreements (FTAs) that the Bush administration negotiated.
The model for the FTAA is the European Union (EU), formerly the "Common Market," which has grown by design from a supposed free trade agreement into a supranational government for Europe. The world order architects intend for the FTAA to follow the same trajectory for the Americas.
- Hillary Clinton voted YES on the Joint Resolution H.J.Res. 114: A joint resolution to authorize the use of United States Armed Forces against Iraq.
