Veteran Democratic operative James Carville fights back against Donald Trump's call to close down the Clinton Foundation. Carville defended the Clintons and told CNN they "never took a nickel out of the foundation." Carville said opponents will "probably be successful" in shutting down the foundation but people will die because of it.
"First of all, the Clintons never took a nickel out of the foundation," Carville said Monday night on CNN. "In fact, they gave a million dollars. So let's stop... the second thing is I'm sorry, but the foundation negotiated prices to lower malaria [drugs] to cents. I don't know how many people -- at Charity Watch they have a five star rated charity. You can't get a higher rating for a charity."
"So the Clinton Foundation was, a, taking no money for the Clintons, raising money from rich people and giving it to poor people," Carville said. ...... "Everything that I have been associated with Bill Clinton with, the three things I'm most proud of," Carville said, "first, he stopped the genocide in Bosnia. Second, the human genome project of which my kids and grandkids will forever thank him for. And third is the Clinton Foundation. The number of lives that they have (saved)...."

He's a sellout, not a wacko.
Well he could be a sellout and a wacko, I suppose.
I would be HAPPY to see half the monies going to charity BUT 10% is pure BS!!! This is NOTHING but MONEY LAUNDERING!!!
Taking money from Russian banks and then signing off on 20% of America's uranium holdings to same country is more like it. Pay / Play.
Befoe Clinton, Haiti exported an d consumed nutritious rice. After Clinton, Haiti imports non-nutritious junk rice—from ARKANSAS. Haiti’s rice farmers have been destroyed.
As I understand the foundations. The officers set their salaries and those salaries are the expenses of the foundation and the foundations probably have tax free status on their investments and contributions.
A sweet deal if you got money to start them.
People will die with them, so it’s a zero-sum proposition.
Chelsea and Bill have drawn how much in salary over how many years? How much have they spent on travel and written off as foundation work expenses while picking up speaking $$$ fees?
First of all, Mr. Carville, there are always other charitable organizations and crooked politicians that take donations.
Yeah.
Touch her Foundation and Hillary will start having folks whacked even faster.
Precisely. Some may die but many more will live.
Carville = Richard Head
That nuke scientist from Iran is unavailable for comment.
Carville could be correct. It could be all those traitors, that knowingly signed on to this corrupt organization, might be swinging from a rope after they've been tried and convicted.

Well James, why don’t you explain where all the money collected by the Crime Syndicate went, and then tell me why Haiti still looks the same as when the disaster hit. Where did all that money go? Where are the statues of the Clintons in Haiti in appreciation for all their charitable efforts. Thousands of pigeons are waiting to express their appreciation.
People HAVE already died because of the Clinton Global Initiative. Care to explain the mineral rights in southern Sudan (in the middle of a civil war!), the Lundin Mining Tenku Fungurume Mine (in the middle of a war zone in southern Congo), and the embezzlement of relief money to Haiti after the earthquake?
Seems to me a lot of Haitian people have already died or are homeless thanks to the Clinton Foundation collecting money for rebuilding after the earthquake and KEEPING it. Thieves left those people homeless and suffering .
Hopefully Corporal Q-Ball Carville and Hitlery will be at the top of the list.
Look at all the good it did in Haiti.
