Trump promises info on veterans fundraiser
By Ben Schreckinger | 05/29/16 03:02 PM EDT
Donald Trump will hold a news conference on Tuesday to unveil a full list of groups that received donations from a veterans fundraiser held in January, the businessman announced on Sunday.
"We're announcing on Tuesday all of the groups that've gotten the money," Trump said during remarks at a motorcycle rally in front of the Lincoln Memorial. "We're having a big press conference and it's going to be a great day."
The fundraiser has become a subject of controversy as journalists have been unable to account for the full $6 million the businessman initially said he raised through the January event. The Trump campaign has sent inconsistent signals about how much of his own money Trump has donated and when.
You have that right! FINALLY Oregon is in play for Conservatives.
“Would like to hear what everyone is doing.”
Packing to move and up to my elbows in boxes. Sold house on May 7, bought another on May 8. Things are moving too fast! Not a typical Memorial Day.
Half of America thinks it’s a day to party. They seem to have no idea it’s a day of remembrance, honoring those who sacrificed.
New Trump Event:

SACRAMENTO, CA
Sacramento Jet Center
7:00 PM
Donald J. Trump for President Rally
Doors open at 4:00 PM
“The fundraiser has become a subject of controversy as journalists have been unable to account for the full $6 million ...”
I didn’t know journalists could even count.
They have lower SAT scores than even education majors.
I would hope most FRers would be dancing a Polka
Surprisingly before my time. The 40’s and 50’s high school generation danced the jitterbug. When the 60’s and what they called the “British Invasion” in music hit the Twist, Pony, Mash Potato, was introduced.

When Elizabeth Doe was the head of the Red Cross her salary was 500,000.00 a year!!!! When I found this out I have NOT given another nickel to the Red Cross I think that kind of salary for a non profit is EXTREME!!!! The ONLY organization I donate to regularly is Salvation Army they truly help ALOT of addicts get back on the right track.
Me too. That's why I hate "nonprofits". Most of them have six-figure CEOs....even in Maine.
RAT-corps....living off the taxpayers.
I agree “Yosemite”....
When tornadoes came through IN a few years ago in Borden a friend at work said The Salvation Army was there in a matter of hours. We give yearly to The Salvation Army.
One Christmas my son won a contest at his work and the company said they would match the amount and give to a charity he chose. He decided it would be The Salvation Army. He asked me to go give them the money and when I arrived they were talking to a young woman. When I handed them the check the man had tears in his eyes saying he could help someone who just came in needing help.
Thanks.
We watched Ed Sullivan when the Beatles first came to America and went on his show—Feb. 1964.
Music changed forever after that show.
Is that why thy call you MayflowerMadam?
Yep, and when many were still rooting for Cruz, they tried to claim he lied or stole money despite the fact that he has come out stronger for vets than anyone else that is/was in the race.
Good morning, lysie.
Thanks for making breakfast for us.
Good Morning...
I have a visitor this morning out on the deck. Not Donald but either “Chip” or Dale”. He’s entertaining my Cats inside.
We have had a visit by a blue heron, walking along the pond edge seeking breakfast.
:)
You are welcome. Good morning.
Good morning. I spent much of the time at the camp watching chipmunks, geese, ducks, etc. Such fun.
