Clinton foundation. And also Obama’s “Obama for America” that changed overnight into “organizing for America”.
If New York does this, Texas needs to go after Clinton Foundation. If we had an Attorney General, or if Koskinen was not still running IRS, the Feds could go after leftist foundations.
This is crap.
After 8 long and distressed years with the criminal in chief president.. after 8 long and distressed years with bill clinton and his wife, the hillary... after discovering the government has been run by illegal means.. lying, lawless, all the way to the top in every department.... and yet today, the scum think they are still in charge of their respectful criminal departments... WHEN IS ENOUGH, ENOUGH!!! When can we look at the news and know it’s an actual unbiased report!!
These headlines on FR articles... some of them set my blood boiling.. it’s ENOUGH already! The world is still upside down and the criminals are stil running the asylum!
President Trump: it’s time to fire sessions, fire the acting AG, fire them all.. stop holding news conferences for the left biased media... let the world know it’s the end of this stuff... the end of their running our country into the swamp.
Pres Trump: YOU have more power than you are using... the whole lot of them out there needs to hear you say “As of today, mueller is finished and so are the rest of the bunch of lefties who think they can run me out of town.
I wonder about the folks who are 40 and under.. do you know any time when life was easy and there was a foundation under our country, that stood for honor and respect? Do you know any time when the United States was a country that stood for something more than bad mouthing our President and an x president apologizing for our existance.. for our success... when we had leaders we could respect and society would not allow the rudeness and disrespect we hear today?
When you are relatively poor and become super wealthy after opening a charity I’d say there more likely to be shenanigans than if a really rich guy opens a charity and is still rich. Just sayin...
We could wish these people really were liberal. Then they wouldn’t give us such absurdity. They aren’t. They are shallow virtue signalers, liberal only with pretense. The pitfall for conservative causes is the temptation to become the same way, except in a right leaning fashion.
Do you know any time when faith, and not mere ritual and cant and other simulacra, were prominent on the national scene?
Yes... in the history books.
The devil's in the details. It would not be right for a charitable foundation to do that. But I wonder if this is confusion arising from the actions of people having dual roles, both inside and outside the charity, and there was no net cash flow of spending on such things.
And another thing to remember — this could have been during the Democrat days of Donald, when there was more wheeling and dealing. It would be wrong again, for a charity foundation to be used as a bank account for funding non charity things. It would taint the reputation of the foundation even if every single thing was reimbursed from proper sources. But till we see more, anything that could be said to condemn Donald’s foundation could probably be said in spades to condemn the Clinton one.
I call for a federal investigation into why dudes turn to stone after looking at this *itch. I thought Helen Thomas was dead.
Clearly a Deep State play against him to counteract his efforts in swamp-draining.
Also, to take away from any news resulting from the IG report drop today.
They’re going after his kids. Not good. It’ll really piss him off.
This will end up poorly for the DS.
Even Total failure to even ask the obvious questions.<-
Completely irrelevant and useless thread...
THREAD REJECTED! unread...
Moving right along...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Mr. PRESIDENT!!
I grew up in a time when there was a war going on in Europe but the country was not divided. The news came to us in a newspaper the next day in the mail, after it was published or seeing the movietone news at the theater, days/weeks after it had happened. We had no TV and no radio until later on. Our toys were few. We had no phone... had to go to the local store to make a call and it had to be important.
The country was bound together by pride of our country and we knew the people in our town well enough that the bank would make a deal on a handshake.
Mothers were at home keeping the family fed and taken care of. Fathers had a job and everyone went shopping on Friday night after payday, getting groceries, going to the dime store, maybe to a drive-in movie.
I could go on, but that is the way it used to be. Maybe not in NYcity, but it’s the way it was in middle America. No one was in a hurry and we all had time for family and Sunday dinners with cousins.
There was no hate spewed and there was no disrespect to others. Society did not tolerate the F word being used openly and did not tolerate rudeness from the day of birth to the grave.. you respected parents and others. Church was a must for Sundays... I went to church as a kid every time the doors were open... even if I was the only kid there, I went and did not argue with authority.
Not so today... and look at the problems!
The only true answer would be for God to grant that the faith would come back.
We often forget that we stand on the shoulders of giants — or spiritually, ultimately on the Giant Himself, Jesus. We act as though we proceeded by means of our own merit. We don’t and can’t.
Authorities also were more trustworthy back at that time — it wasn’t mere danger of some terrible punishment that caused them to be perceived as worth honor. They carried on honorably themselves. The priest or the pastor were as close to impeccable (at least externally) as humanly possible. To defy them was rightly seen as an objective horror, not just something that might bring some terrible punishment (and often, by restraint, it did NOT bring some terrible punishment due to moral reasoning having great acceptance). Now, the occasional good Samaritan shows up the Pharisees and it is a mess.
Well, I’d hope that other commenters would furnish more content and context. As the bible says, a person presenting his case in court seems right until another one challenges him.
But no problems when communists use their foundations for the same purposes.
** it wasn’t mere danger of some terrible punishment that caused them to be perceived as worth honor. They carried on honorably themselves**
True... and parents did not put up with disobedience and sass. If a student got in trouble at school, parents didn’t go to the teacher and “my kid would not do that”... the kid knew there would be consequences and there was.
Also, the climate people think they have to save the earth and all that they so desire to have around. They could NEVER save anything from extinction... they discount a living God who is in control. They count believing in God, childish and foolishness.
**The only true answer would be for God to grant that the faith would come back**
A mighty hand of God would convince some. but not all and not most. But we still desire it to be!
At the same time, forgiveness was quick — parents did not hold weeks long grudges because of some passing indiscretion on the part of a child. They knew what loving the sinner while hating the sin meant.
The trend of “catching hell in both places” actually marked the beginning of the end — a faith that had forgotten the treasure of the Lord’s staying hand in longsuffering. It soon was to fall apart altogether.
But the climate change objectors at least have a valid principle in mind that the earth is the source of good for everybody, and mucking it up would be wrong. They suffer from doubt and little faith in fearing that any small thing would bring the earth down. The dangers are played up, and mitigating factors are played down. They have no idea how well the world’s vegetation would react to higher carbon dioxide.
“...spent $10,000 on a portrait of Mr. Trump that was hung at one of his golf clubs”
BFF.
I have a friend who did the same thing for a charity they founded and the charity paid for the portrait, as it should have.
And, what did it pay? An artist. How’s that tied up with Donald or the GOP?
