What does the Federal Reserve do with all the money they make?

Essentially, the seignorage income is returned to the US Treasury.

I've had Freepers tell me that the income goes to the foreign owners of the Federal Reserve (and the Joooooos). Your explanation sounds more benign.

"Essentially, the seignorage income is returned to the US Treasury."

There are no transactions on record to support that contention. Where did you get that idea?
