Bill Tried to Shakedown Denise Rich for $25 Million Donation
Ex-President Clinton's fundraising team tried to get millionaire
Democrat donor Denise Rich to fork over a whopping $25 million
for the William J. Clinton Presidential Library Foundation, a
report hitting newsstands this week claims.
"Clinton fundraisers pressed the flamboyant singer-socialite
for.... as much as $25 million for the library fund," Rich's
friends tell U.S. News & World Report.
"A wealthy benefactor of the library and longtime Democratic
contributor said fundraisers had suggested a donation of at least
$10 million" to Ms. Rich, adds the magazine.
Clinton's big-buck squeeze on the wealthy New Yorker came as she
was begging him to pardon her ex-husband, fugitive-billionaire
Marc Rich.
Martin Pollner, Ms. Rich's New York attorney, denied his client
was a victim of the budget-busting Clinton shakedown, telling the
New York Times Monday that the claim was "ridiculous."
Still, while the amount Rich has given so far is believed to be
far less (with sources citing numbers from $450,000 to $1.4
million), her Washington attorney, Carol Elder Bruce, told
investigators last week that Rich's donation was in fact an
"enormous, enormous" amount.
And others solicited by the Clinton Foundation have reportedly
contributed amounts identical to the one Clinton established as a
minimum for Rich.
"California supermarket magnate Ron Burkle.... is prepared to
give $5 million to $10 million" to the Clinton Library Fund,
reported the Washington Post in October 1999.
"Fox Family Worldwide chairman Haim Saban and Universal Studios
chairman emeritus Lew Wasserman have committed to similar sums,"
the paper added.
