Also, I recently noticed the Clintons have close ties to at least two international airports in the Dominican Republic.

While I'm not accusing these people of anything, just to mention owners of one include Julio Iglesias (on the right), and Frank Rainieri, and the other is owned by the Fanjul sugar and real estate family.

Punta Cana International Airport:

This airport has a private security force (Full document) (PDF source) and is owned by the Clintons' close friends Frank Rainieri and Julio Iglesias, through their company Grupo Puntacana. GP owns Punta Cana Resort and a massive number of other operations. The airport moves four million passengers per year.

The Clintons, longtime friends of Iglesias, have stayed at his homes in Indian Creek in Miami, and Punta Cana: http://archive.is/Y3dYC

Frank Rainieri, a pilot who formerly owned a company that sprayed chemicals over DR fields, donated to the Clinton Foundation after most shied away: http://archive.is/XSKqr

Late owners of the airport included Oscar de la Renta, and labor mediator Theodore Kheel. The latter's ownership is currently represented by his son Robert Kheel (center) and son-in-law, Arnold Jacobs.


La Romana International Airport:

The airport is owned by the Fanjul brothers — Alfonso "Alfy", José "Pepe", Alexander, and Andres Fanjul — through the Fanjul Corporation, a U.S. and Dominican Republic conglomerate with vast holdings including resorts around La Romana, Domino Sugar, Florida Crystals, C&H Sugar, Redpath Sugar, and Tate & Lyle Sugars.

Alfonso "Alfy" Fanjul was Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign co-chair. Source: Wikipedia

Side note -- might be nothing: Am I the only one who thinks Hillary Clinton, not known for being able to conceal how she feels -- looks uncharacteristically unnerved when with Frank Rainieri, see here and here, and tense around Julio Iglesias? Hmm. Might be nothing.
