Shameless liars strike again.

Correct to the lies from this GOPE media mouthpiece.

List of 22 Vets groups that took part last night in Trumps event.

https://assets.donaldjtrump.com/MILITARY_CHARITIES_SHEET_FOR_MR._TRUMP.pdf

A lot has been made about the fact that money donated was first directed into Trump’s foundation.

Simply put, in order for donations to be exempt from federal taxes, they must go into a 501(C) account.

There was not enough time for the Trump organization to set up a 501(C) specifically for this charity event. So, the money for veterans groups will be distributed through Trump’s 501(C) foundation.

NY Vets statements about Trumps previous commitment to Vets

Leader of New York Veterans Group Defends Donald Trump

1 Vets group, IAVA, rushed out to refuse to take part in Trumps event. Odd since they were never asked to be part of it.

The leader of Iava biggest priority was repeal of Dont ask Don’t tell and full acceptance of homosexuality in the military. On Fox News yesterday he was forced to admit he think Hillary Clinton is the best candidate on Vets issues.

Think that pretty much explains the agenda of IAVA. IAVA raised $6 million last year and spent only $80,000 on helping Vets. Its nothing but a PR front for a Leftist political action group.

I’m sorry I don’t waste my time trying to pry open the welded shut minds of you campaign bots any more.

I merely correct the lies pumped out your sort of brain dead bot poster and them move on to nuking the next habitual liar who comes along.

One group proudly declares themselves 'progressive'.

Another group had their spokesman on TV pushing for Hillary Clinton.

The third issued a simple denial of knowledge.

This is a ginned-up hit piece.

But from the media, it was ever thus.

Hmm, let’s see - a liberal veteran group leader who thinks Hillary will do more for vets, an organization dealing with a spate of news stories attacking their overhead (yet nary a peep about the Clinton Foundation), and a liberal vet organization are used for quotes.

Write the check to the Gary Sinise Foundation.
