Chelsea Clinton to Headline First Solo Fundraiser for Mother

MINNEAPOLIS — Dec 15, 2015, 6:49 PM ET

Chelsea Clinton will headline her first solo fundraisers for mother Hillary Clinton's presidential bid and campaign in the early voting states of Iowa and New Hampshire in the new year.

The daughter of the Democratic front-runner and former President Bill Clinton will appear at two Boston fundraisers on Jan. 11 and will campaign in the early states on her mother's behalf. That's according to a person familiar with campaign who spoke on condition of anonymity because the news has not been made public.

Chelsea Clinton, 35, was an active surrogate during her mother's first presidential campaign in 2008, speaking primarily to students and younger voters, but has not yet played a public role this time around. Clinton and her husband, Marc Mezvinsky, are parents of a 1-year-old daughter, Charlotte.

The younger Clinton's plans were first reported by Time.

Hillary Clinton Faces Call for New Ethics Investigation After Son-in-Law Asked for a Business Favor



The complaint, first obtained by TIME, comes two weeks after one of Clinton's court-ordered email releases showed that she asked a senior State Department official to follow up on a special request from Mezvinsky, the husband of her daughter, Chelsea Clinton.

In a May 2012 email, the investor, Harry Siklas, asked Mezvinsky to connect him with Clinton or other State Department officials "to discuss mining and the current legal issues and regulations."

Three months later, according to State Department emails, Clinton forwarded Siklas' note to then-deputy secretary of state Thomas Nides, writing, "Could you have someone follow up on this request which was forwarded to me?" Nides replied that he would "get on it."

6. Please look at who your friends...

Calling for the investigation are. Pretty low disimenating that crap. The group is listed right in your article. And what does that have to do with the topic of Bill. Deflection is about all that's left for some.

7. Oh I just LOVE how you omit the first sentence in that piece.

To wit;

"A conservative watchdog group is calling for a new federal investigation into Hillary Clinton's actions during her time as secretary of state."

So now you're carrying water for conservative watchdog groups by propagating this nonsense? On DU?

Dishonest, misleading, disingenuous, and incomplete -- these are a few of your favorite things.

8. The conservative group is Citizens United and Judicial Watch.

The irony of people taking their side.
