Officially, they hail from Chappaqua and Washington, by way of Arkansas. But when it comes to integrity, they’re straight out of Tammany Hall.

They are the Clintons of Tammany, and they set their moral compass to the reckonings of George Washington Plunkitt, “The Sage” of that fabled Irish-American political machine.

More than a century ago, he laid out his philosophy to a biographer, calling it “A Series of Very Plain Talks on Very Practical Politics.”

Among Plunkitt’s gems: Tammany “does missionary work like a church, it’s got big expenses and it’s got to be supported by the faithful.”

He quickly helped families burned out of their houses because “it’s philanthropy, but it’s politics, too — mighty good politics. Who can tell how many votes one of these fires brings me? The poor are the most grateful people in the world, and, let me tell you, they have more friends in their neighborhoods than the rich.”

Then there’s this one: “Everybody is talkin’ these days about Tammany men growin’ rich on graft, but nobody thinks of drawin’ the distinction between honest graft and dishonest graft.”

Plunkitt insisted his immense wealth was the product of honest graft, adding, “I might sum up the whole thing by sayin’: ‘I seen my opportunities and I took ’em.’”

Well, what do you know — the line perfectly captures the Clinton credo, too. From their attempted pilfering of White House furniture to raking in gazillions from countries and companies that might want a government favor or two, they have spent their careers seeing their opportunities and taking a cut of the action.

Indeed, to judge from the reports about a new book called “Clinton Cash,” author Peter Schweizer reveals a scheme that would make Plunkitt blush with envy. Schwei­zer describes an inside-the-government, outside-the-government arrangement, where Hillary used her post as secretary of state to do favors for companies and foreign countries, which then paid good ol’ Bubba up to $500,000 for a speech or made large contributions to the family foundation.

The author cites a “pattern of ­financial transactions” that benefitted both the Clintons and their funders. He says Bill earned a staggering $48 million in speeches during Hillary’s four years as secretary of state, including 11 of the top-range windfalls. Their net worth is now estimated at between $100 million and $200 million, not bad for a couple Hillary claimed was “dead broke” in 2000.

Whether their Midas-haul riches are the result of honest or dishonest graft, it’s certainly graft. While both could legitimately command significant appearance fees, there seems little doubt that the soaring price of his speeches during her tenure at State was not a mere ­coincidence.

That’s Goodwin Rule No. 1 with the Clintons: There’s no such thing as a coincidence.

What Hillary did with that power is something Schweizer explores and, again according to reports from the book, which has not been released, he offers compelling examples of a quid pro quo.

And now she wants to be president to help “everyday Americans.” Imagine the cash that would generate!

Radio legend John Gambling asked me Tuesday why they do it, meaning why the Clintons always court trouble when, financially at least, they’re set for life. My ­answer speaks to their nature, and ours.

They do it because they get away with it. And they get away with it because we let them.

It’s time to stop the gravy train. The price of their brand of “public service” is more than America can afford. The accumulated burden of their greed is too much to bear.

Less than two weeks after she ­officially launched her campaign, it’s obvious that nothing has changed with them — and never will. It’s all scandal, all the time, and always will be. It’s who they are.

The gusher of money flowing their way also offers an explanation for the email scandal, in which Hillary claimed to have deleted more than 30,000 emails from her private server.

What did she know about money coming into the foundation? What did she know about who was paying her husband to speak? How much coordination was there?

She claims the emails she deleted were purely personal, and her lawyer says the server was “wiped clean.” That’s not something that can ever be said about their reputation.

It is Tammany without the charm.

Hiring ‘cuffed’ cops a big waste

Over Mayor Bill de Blasio’s apparent objections, Police Commissioner Bill Bratton makes no secret of his desire to hire more cops. He even has the City Council on his side.

But the idea of expanding the force by up to 1,000 cops is making less and less sense. Not because the city doesn’t need more, but because it wouldn’t properly use them.

The assault on the NYPD that de Blasio started hasn’t stopped. With a new federal monitor issuing baby-talk instructions to cops — don’t be racist, don’t tell dirty jokes — and with the council looking to handcuff officers’ enforcement powers, there would be no point to spend $100 million for no gain in public safety.

Even as murder and shootings climb, more cops would be an extravagant waste if they are mere uniformed mannequins.

The great gains against crime in the pre-de Blasio era were achieved with focused and aggressive policing. Cops made the bad guys uncomfortable, and that meant fewer guns on the street and fewer shootings.

The mayor is reversing all that, and the bad guys know it. Hiring cops to stand around while forbidding them from actually doing police work puts them in harm’s way for no good reason.

The council’s muddled thinking is especially revealing. It doesn’t want cops to enforce the law, moving to decriminalize such misdemeanors as public urination and turnstile jumping. Yet it wants to add to the payroll.

No thanks. Let cops be cops, or save the money. Better yet, give the cash to hospitals and funeral homes to take care of the growing body count.

Times’ ‘race’ to tar GOP

Reaching another new low, The New York Times editorial page saw rampant racism in Republican efforts to block President Obama’s bad deal with Iran. Its editorial on April 11 accused GOP senators of attacking Obama’s “legitimacy” and said it was “impossible to dismiss the notion that race plays a role in it.”

Four days later, the paper ate crow, without admitting it or apologizing. By then, all Democrats on the Foreign Relations panel joined the GOP in demanding a congressional vote on Iran. The Times editorial this time made no claims of racism, declaring only that the 19-0 vote was “reckless.”

Lefty Andy plays Raul’s fool

Gov. Andrew Cuomo needs a history lesson. Talking to Cuban officials in Havana, Cuomo said this: “The people in New York and the United States are very excited about the courage that your president, Raul Castro, has shown.” No word on whether the gov was wearing a Che Guevara shirt.
