Back in March, Clinton spoke at an invite-only fundraiser for the Boys & Girls Club of Long Beach, Calif., a service for which she asked – and received – $200,000. The annual event draws out affluent Long Beach denizens, who hobnob with high-profile speakers and open their checkbooks for a worthy cause. It’s customary for big-name speakers at such charity events to return some or all of their speaking fees to the charity for whom they’re speaking. Hillary did things a little differently, though: she took the $200,000 – an exorbitant amount, even by the club’s standards – and donated it to the Clinton Foundation.
