Charity Navigator Profile: The Clinton Foundation
Charity Navigator ^ | no date given | no author given

We had previously evaluated this organization, but have since determined that this charity's atypical business model can not be accurately captured in our current rating methodology. Our removal of The Clinton Foundation from our site is neither a condemnation nor an endorsement of this charity.

Two questions come to mind:

One, what was Charity Navigator's previous evaluation of the Clinton Foundation? And two, what do they mean by "atypical business model"? That's a rather interesting phrase.

It's another word for Slush Fund.

it means most charities aren’t huge slush funds run to benefit a family of grifters claiming to be using donations for a worthy cause

I sure hope this doesn’t mean Bubba wont be able to pay the bills, otherwise Chelsea may have to wait tables

How many of you would give money to the Clinton Foundation after all of what has been in the news?

Even if you are liberal, and care about AIDS and global warming and other causes pushed by the Clinton Foundation, if you are interested in these causes, wouldn’t you send your contributions elsewhere, rather than to the Clintons??

How did Chelsea Mezvinsky and her husband afford a $10 million Manhattan condo???

Remember when Hillary said they were dead broke, and Bill had to work hard to “piece together resources” to “get us houses”?? The houses referred to are the mansion in Chapaqua(sp?) and another mansion in Washington, DC. How the heck did the Clintons afford such mansions???

What are we to make of the news that the Clinton Foundation spends only 15% of the donations on their charitable work? What happens to the other 85%?

And, do we know how much in salary the Clintons pay themselves and their little girl from the foundation to run it? And how do those paychecks compare to managers of other similar charities?

Or is the foundation just a slush fund?

As I see it, only two types of people would give to that Foundation. The first type are those who are mesmerized by the name "Clinton". The second type are more dangerous. They're the ones who absolutely expect something significant in return for their money.

I saw the news that old Clintonista masquerading as a journalist, George Stephanopolous, gave $50,000 to the Clintons.

Is being a Clintonista like being in the mafia, that you are in the family, and you can never truly leave the family?? It makes you wonder.

DEREK HUNTER ASKED ON TOWNHALL.COM Why do the world’s wealthiest people and foreign govts feel compelled to give the Clinton Foundation hundreds of millions of dollars to do "charity"...... which the do-good Clintons constantly brag about.....that are in reality innocuous activities that thousands of charities already do......

These "Foundations" have become little more than political extortion.....shakedowns....prolly money laundering, tax evasion havens, as well.

Taxpayers demand laws prohibiting public official and ex-presidents from forming foundations that are little more than personal ATM's. Opportunistic pols use con artist-type "shakedowns" to personally profit by selling access and favorable public policy "for a price."

============================================

OBAMAS GET READY FOR THE BIG PAYDAY Obama isnt even out of office yet---and already has two foundations (that we know of).

(1) "The Obama Foundation" announced the location of its library in Chicago.....revving up the next ex-president's money machine.

(2) The second Obama foundation----The Barack H. Obama Foundation (BHOF)---(named after their dad), was fast-tracked by Lois Lerner for IRS tax-exempt status....for Malik Obama, Barack's half brother.

The BHOF is based at a Virginia UPS store, according to its website. The organization’s IRS filings list another Virginia address that is actually a drug rehab center where the foundation does not appear ever to have been based.

As first reported by The Daily Caller, the foundation was speedily approved for IRS exemption by Lois Lerner, the self-same IRS senior official at the center of the targeting of conservative organizations that have waited over two years to receive tax exempt status. The IRS thoughtfully gave Obama Foundation retroactive fund-raising status.......which it stupidly never applied for.

The tax-exempt Barack H. Obama Foundation is run by Abon’go “Roy” Malik Obama, the half-brother of Barack Obama.

The foundation’s mission statement is “to provide people everywhere with resources to uplift their welfare and living standards in memory of dad---Barack H. Obama: in the region of his birth, Kenya, and beyond.” Its guiding principle is “the inherent belief that no one can truly enjoy the riches he has reaped if his neighbor suffers....."We seek to elevate the human condition so that everyone can live in dignity and truly enjoy having one another as neighbors.”

(waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

Despite raising more than $250,000, the alleged charity doesn’t seem to have done much. Its website claims the organization has built a madrassa and was building an imam’s house as well as some “proposed latrines,” but there is no other evidence that the nonprofit was working to “mitigate social-shortcomings in areas of education and literacy, health and well-being, poverty, and lack of community infrastructure in such basic needs such as water, electricity, shelter and sustenance,” as the site says.

Alton Ray Baysden, a former Dept of State employee, allegedly a registered Republican, who helped start the Barack H Obama foundation, declined to comment before seeing copies of a reporter’s passport and govt ID, along with a description of the article’s “motivation” and “slant.”

Repeated reporters' phone calls went to the organization’s voicemail and were not returned.

Malik spends most of his time in Kenya with his 12 wives while Obama finances his half brother, Malik, a major fundraiser for the Muslim Bortherhood.

==================================================

GOVERTNMENT FRAUD AT ITS FINEST--deposited in numbered accounts in offshore banks?

Obama's federal outlays (that we know of).:

<><> $2 billion funding to Malik's organization---the Muslim Brotherhood,

<><> $50 million to Malik/Barack's tax-exempt foundation in the form of a grant to Kenya.

<><> While the Muslim Brotherhood was in charge in Egypt, Obama (and Hillary) showered them w/ praise.....and billions of US dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes.

<><> Obama gave $90 million US tax dollars to wealthy oil-rich African countries.

What does what Charity Navigator mean by the Clinton Foundation's "atypical business model"?

CLINTON SOLICITED FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS TO
SUSIDIZE HIS FOUNDATION/LIBRARY IN ARKANSAS

The Library bills itself as "linking the significance of
a 20th century American presidency with the ongoing
and far-reaching work of The Clinton Global Foundation."

==================================================

No mention of Clinton being impeached and disbarred for lying.

====================================================

REALITY CHECK Despite its grandiose self-promotion, The William J. Clinton Presidential Center and Park---- is just another "Clinton Cash" snake pit.....subsidized by taxpayers,....and some shady foreign characters.

As Hollywood hotshots protested the Beverly Hills Hotel over its ownership by Brunei's sultan and his embrace of Sharia law, it turns out the Brunei government has financial connections to the Clintons.

The Clinton presidential library lists Brunei along with Kuwait, Oman and Qatar (new home of the Gitmo Five) as donors that gave between $1 million and $5 million through last year.

The Clinton foundation itself confirmed the 2002 Brunei donation: "The Clinton Foundation's impact would not be possible without the generous support of our donors," the foundation's website reads. "Their contributions have made a difference in the lives of tens of millions across the world." Read more at foxnews.com ...

==================================================

Hillary later told Greta that Qatar was "not a threat to the US." Hillary never mentioned Qatar subsidizing the Clinton Library/Foundation....leading some to believe the donation was a payoff....Hillary defended Qatar, blatantly ignoring America's ntl security interests.

Can you say a "white privilege charity" peddling "elitism" as "do-goodism"?

============================================

MARRAKESH, Morocco — The scene that unfolded here last week as Bill Clinton convened world leaders for a philanthropic conference was hardly what his wife’s champion-for-everyday-Americans campaign would have ordered up.

Gathered in Marrakesh for a Clinton Global Initiative confab, foreign oligarchs and corporate titans mingled amid palm trees, decorative pools and dazzling tiled courtyards with the former president and his traveling delegation of foundation donors — many of whom are also donors to Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign.

When daughter Chelsea moderated a discussion on women’s empowerment, the only male panelist was Morocco’s richest person, Othman Benjelloun, whose BMCE Bank is a CGI sponsor.

For the week’s biggest party, guests were chauffeured across the city to an opulent 56-room palace that boasts a private collection of Arabian horses, overlooks the snow-capped Atlas Mountains and serves a fine-dining menu of “biolight” cuisine.

It was a long way from Hillary Clinton’s campaign-trail visits to Chipotle. The luxe week in Morocco highlighted the over­ arching question facing the Clintons and their co­existing circles of political advisers: What to do with Bill?

EXCERPT--http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/for-the-clintons-a-big-question-what-to-do-with-bill/2015/05/10/1f5b6212- f4db-11e4- bcc4-e8141e5eb0c9_story.html

Reported by Philip Rucker, national political correspondent,
The Washington Post since 2005, w/ Kevin Sieff in Nairobi.

===========================================================

"Smile everybody. Another $100 million came in today.
And Charity Navigator will keep it quiet."

they got their NY mansion from Terry McAuliffe, Mr Global Crossing

I don’t know who bought them their Georgetown cottage but they furnished it with a housewarming shower list she issued while she was still the First Lady ( I still remember the silver asparagus tongs, wonder if they use those much when they go to Haiti)

I suppose the “Clinton Foundation” bought Chelseas 10 million condo, maybe it was the price to keep her nutty husband from disappearing to the ski slopes

Remember that muslim Huma and her Jewish exhibitionist husband also live in a multi million dollar condo with her little Weiner, rented from a “friend of Bill”

Bill has a great network of friends

Like billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, the serial child molester and pedophile who kept his own private child sex slave island and flew Bill (and other luminaries) there via private jet, multiple times
