Whatever Happened to Burlington Baby Jane? The Vetting of Jane Sanders!

In the vetting of Bernie and Jane Sanders there is so much more we need to know about their Finances and Tax Returns but one of our main concerns should be that Jane Sanders is Bernie’s Primary Advisor on his campaign. She was given an unexplained $200,000 Golden Parachute when she left Burlington College and She does the Sander’s Tax Returns which they do not seem to be able to locate. This issue was covered today by @JakeTapper who Hosts The Lead on CNN How transparent is Bernie Sanders on his tax returns?

Well, well, well....

[winter is coming]

1. OMG! Startling news... that we've all known about for ages.

Got any new material?

[Little Star]

2. lol

[GreatGazoo]

13. as old as the film title they reference (with no real relevance)

[Jitter65]

14. Yeah, how about that. Like the news we've know about Hillary for over 30 years. Wow!!

Pot meet kettle!

[KingFlorez]

3. So much for being so superior

[TheBlackAdder]

16. A $200,000 "Golden Parachute" is the lamest one I've ever seen. Doesn't even qualify as a GP.

.


That's a substandard executive termination package.


.

[Snotcicles]

22. That's not a Golden Parachute. It's more like a rusty one with a hole in it. lol nt

[peace13]

37. Not even equal to one of Hills's speeches!

Drop in the bucket!

[snort]

4. Well that sucks.

The Clinton camp should be accustomed to sucking. If your looking for spouses with baggage, you've got yourselves a winner. Wait til the GOP jumps on the lolita airlines bandwagon.

[Little Star]

7. Nope. Just feeling the Bern. lol

[adigal]

44. I'm really surprised that Hillary's supporters are jumping for joy with this

cause Trump knows Hillary and Bill personally. And he is going to bring down a shitstorm of allegations on Bill the likes of which we have never seen before. We know the man has zero constraints - Trump, not Bill, although that will be applied to him, too.

[snort]

47. Shitstorm.

Perfect description. This will not end well. Trump will say whatever he wants when he wants and suffer no consequence from his base, they'll just love him even more.

[adigal]

48. Exactly! And people of conscience like most Dems are will be disgusted

and many may stay home or just vote down ticket. I'm hoping that if they get angry at Bill and Hillary, they at least show up and vote downticket.

[djean111]

5. Gee, what new Clinton corruption has caused this to be dragged out again?

Let me know when the Sanders' launder millions through a "Foundation" or run the State Department, secrets and all, from a server in their house. Or when Bernie serially commits adultery. (or even once, really). Let's ask the poor folks in Haiti how they feel about this stuff. Gee, Jane got a $200,000 parachute and didn't even give out any reeking arms deals.

Fail.

[winter is coming]

10. I've seen it alleged that Hillary's being interviewed this week.

Maybe some extra Shiny is needed to deflect attention from that.

[snort]

49. 200K?

A bronze parachute? Modest by today's executive standards.

[djean111]

51. Was not even a "parachute", it was the remainder of her contract. two years.

I don't think Hillary would even say hi for $200,000.

[blm]

6. Posting the obvious: GOP would do with Burlington what they did with Whitewater - spend

years and tens of millions to distort what happened and make First Lady Jane Sanders appear to be unethical, untrustworthy, and money hungry. That is what the GOP does with its power and their manipulation of the corporate media.

They have done it to every Dem first lady since they started their own RW propaganda machine.

[Little Star]

9. Seems she's done that to herself on this one.

[2cannan]

50. Maybe she can blame the VRWC too. nt

[NightWatcher]

8. Yeah, cause she's the one with corrupt financial dealings

[Little Star]

12. Where's the tax returns?

[snort]

52. Here's 2014

[link:http://time.com/4295446/bernie-sanders-tax-returns-jane-sanders/|

Let your imagination run wild with the 2015. Perhaps there will be a line saying: Plus several million from the Banksters. Or, Bernie and Jane's offshore account.

[snort]

54. That thar disappeared

[Hiraeth]

11. lol

still no transcripts

[B2G]

15. Some of you really need to learn how business works

She resigned in 2011 but had a contract through 2013.

This wasn't a 'Golden Parachute', but the balance of the salary she would have been paid per the contract.

[Little Star]

17. So why no tax returns yet?

[B2G]

18. Are you suggesting she didn't claim the income

or that she wasn't entitled to it in the first place?

It's hard to tell based on your OP and now your retorts about returns.

[Little Star]

20. Not suggesting anything. But...

just can't see why anyone running for president won't insist that their returns be released by his wife right away. Why not??????

[CrowCityDem]

26. Sorry, but some of us don't believe in bailouts.

When you bankrupt an institution, you should have to pay the price for it. Isn't that what Bernie says about the big banks?

[Armstead]

29. You're being serious right? I assume you disagree with Clinton

She hasn't been clamoring to turn Lloyd Blankfein and his ilk into paupers over what they did to the economy.

[CrowCityDem]

32. It was snark, since Bernie seems to hate anyone profiting from fraud... until it's Jane.

[Little Star]

35. .

[Armstead]

36. I know it was snark, as was my reply

[Little Star]

43. Bingo

[WhiteTara]

31. Ouch!

[azurnoir]

19. LOl 6 years after the fact suddenly it becomes a GOLDEN parachute so what's $3 billion?

a platinum parachute? but go with it really especially that "Baby Jane " part,

[pinebox]

21. You REALLLLLLY want to bring up candidates spouses? Do you REALLY want to go there?

[Little Star]

23. Nope just tax returns.

[Joob]

24. Yes, Look into stuff like this, NO MATTER WHO IS THE CANDIDATE.

Maybe ya'll will wake up

[Little Star]

25. Hillary Clinton releases health, financial records

In addition to this medical summary, the campaign also posted to its website the last eight years of Clinton’s personal tax returns, covering 2007–2014. This supplements the public release of the family’s tax returns from 2000–2006 during her 2008 campaign, returns from 1992–1999 disclosed annually during her husband’s time in the White House, and prior returns released by her husband’s presidential campaign. All told, the Clintons have made their tax returns public for every year dating back to 1977.

Go ahead & look for yourself regarding Hillary. Now, when will Bernie do the same?

[djean111]

28. No matter what any candidate's tax returns say - and this, evidently, is REAL HARD TO UNDERSTAND -

Hillary represents war and fracking and the Third Way and cluster bombs and corruption and regime change and the TPP. Hillary is in favor of means-testing Social Security, and says no to Single Payer. Increased deregulation of Wall Street.

Bernie does not represent those things. A tax return is not going to change how anyone feels about those issues. Issues which affect our lives.

It's the issues, not the tax returns.

[adigal]

40. She doesn't release speech transcripts made to the .01%ers nt

[jillan]

27. Going after the candidate's wife. How very Republican of you.

[Little Star]

34. Sing that song to Daily Kos

You know that liberal website. All I did was agree with what they said.

[Sancho]

30. I'm just glad the media are not ignoring Sanders...it was so unfair for so long.

There's still a couple weeks left to really dig deep into Bernie, his background, his family, and friends!!

[cali]

33. Billy on the perv plane 25x. What was he doing?

[Little Star]

41. Hey, look at that shiny thing over there because...

I need to derail this thread.

[cali]

46. Um, no. More like you have a beam in your eye, dear.

Whatever Jane's shortcomings, they.sure do pale against Bill's. And this is going to be a big story. Clinton filth: a bottomless well.

[adigal]

38. Is she running for office? Does that make Bill Clinton fair game also??

Man, that's all Trump needs!!

[Vinca]

39. Jane's not running for anything.

Bill, on the other hand, has been designated the person in charge of the U.S. economy in a Hillary Clinton administration. So . . . let's talk about his travel on the "Lolita Express" and stays on "Orgy Island." What's good for the goose . . .

[Little Star]

42. Stop stealing Cali's ideas. lol

[Vinca]

45. I don't think it's an idea of Cali's. This isn't a big secret and will most likely

be the subject of national advertising. One way or the other there will be an old guy with a pervy past in the White House come November.

[Else You Are Mad]

53. Seriously?!

$200,000 doesn't even get Hillary or Bill in the door for a speech. Heck, the Clintons don't even give corrupt beneficial treatment to foreign nations for less than $20 million!

If you seriously consider $200,000 a golden parachute, welcome to the 21st century time traveler from 150 years in the past! I am certain you will like this century.
