Former Alabama judge Roy Moore, a Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, once said publicly that he did not take a “regular salary” from the small charity he founded to promote Christian values because he did not want to be a financial burden.
But privately, Moore had arranged to receive a salary of $180,000 a year for part-time work at the Foundation for Moral Law, internal charity documents show. He collected more than $1 million as president from 2007 to 2012, compensation that far surpassed what the group disclosed in its public tax filings most of those years.
When the charity couldn’t afford the full amount, Moore in 2012 was given a promissory note for back pay eventually worth $540,000 or an equal stake of the charity’s most valuable asset, a historic building in Montgomery, Ala., mortgage records show. He holds that note even now, a charity official said.

That’ll change maybe a dozen votes, mostly in Mobile.
I don’t care...
It’s not illegal.
It’s probably more lie than truth (from the media)
Is this the full story? Did he contribute it back?
Seems if WaPo was worried over foundation charity business....they’d hustle up a reporter or two on the Clinton Foundation....don’t you think?
Nice work if you can get it.
Don’t know if its true, suspect it is FAKE NEWS and don’t give a damn if it were.
This is just the beginning of the lies and trash the GOP Establishment and their companions in crime, the Dems, will pour on Moore for defying their money machine.
Soon we will hear crazy Joe Biden wailing about Moore wanting to put black folks back in chains.
WaPo, go screw uyourself.
King David committed adultery and murder. One of Jesus’s titles is what again? Son of David?
Not comparing the two really, just won’t condemn a man that’s being attacked by demons from hell.
If it proves to be true, it might keep a few people home. It will not convince people to vote for the ethically challenged Democrat, in my opinion of my neighboring state.
Pull the Guidestar reports and link to them.
Need a TAX ID number for the charity.
Research please.
The WaPo could care less, but I’m sure Mitch McConnell wants to bury his ass after that last election!

Well, in the next paragraph the Compost says they couldn’t afford it, so I’d say that’s why it wasn’t disclosed. They didn’t pay it.

This ^^^^^^
Let’s see how much money Mitch spends on Moore to defeat the dimoKKKRAT. Remember he spent $30 million to defeat Moore during the primary.
How many blind eyes has the WAPO turned on sweet deals for Democrats?
Thanks to WaPo for reminding me that it is time to make another donation to the Roy Moore for Senate Campaign. I know they think we here in LA (Lower Alabama) are just a bunch of uneducated rednecks but we are wise enough to know BS when we hear it. This will not change to outcome one bit. With a rebel yell we cry Moore, Moore, Moore.

Maybe he’s holding the note so he can donate it after it appreciates and get a nice tax deduction for his charity work.
Liberals do the same with disgusting pieces of so called art and the Compost has no problem with it.
A promissory note that he still holds and did not redeem, since 2012. So he “earned” a salary for five years, got a promissory note for the amount, and has not redeemed it.
Not a good capitalist, he should be hung and quartered.
Sounds like he took a part-time job that “democrats” usually get.
I wouldn’t say getting a promissory note instead of a paycheck is a “regular salary.”
Perhaps the WaPo reporters could get a promissory note instead of a paycheck. You could ask them about it then.
