The Clinton ‘Charity’ Begins at Home (Foundation is 2016 Hillary's Super-PAC)

Stories abound WRT then-Secy Hillary’s official actions to benefit her charity. But the Clinton Foundation is not a “charity".....it is a global shakedown operation, designed to finance and nurture the Clintons’ political ambitions. Hillary's super PAC throws in the occasional good deed.... the IRS that assiduously targeted conservative non-profits hasn’t investigated the Clinton Foundation.

Lucky for the Clintons, nobody looks. The IRS has stripped charities of their tax-exempt status when shown to be operating for purposes other than benevolence but has shown no real interest in the Clinton Foundation. The Foundation is staffed, not by lifetime n/p experts, but by political operatives....a comfy place to draw a big check as they gear up for Hillary’s presidential run. --SNIP--..... more than a dozen staffers came straight out of politics—--from the DNC, other Democrats, or super PACS. And how many more political operatives are cashing foundation checks that we don’t know about.....longtime Clinton pal Sid Blumenthal surfaced...drawing $10,000 a month (plus perks).

Her longtime aide, Huma Abedin worked as 2008 Hillary's traveling chief of staff, then at State, Hillary granted her a special arrangement....cashing US govt checks while earning money as a private-sector consultant. Among those she consulted for? The Clinton Foundation. This is typically Clinton....on the edge of legal. The foundation raises hundreds of millions as a non-profit “charity.” We know from tax filings that it spends an extraordinary portion on travel and staff. How many donors give precisely to help elect a new president, one who will gratefully remember their help?

CONCLUSIONS It's next to impossible to believe Obama knows nothing about the Clintons' buck-raking activities. That he was oblivious to the Clintons jerking around US foreign policy to make a buck.

BACKSTORY Remember that late night visit 2008 Obama made to the Clinton manse? She was the only thing standing in his way of the presidency. After that visit, Hillary quickly dropped out of the primary so he could forge ahead.

Clearly, a deal was made...undisclosed to the electorate. Looks to me like they divided up the US govt. She got the State Dept.

Hillary ran State it like a shadow govt. Bill trotted the globe acting like a "good will" ambassador.....he devised hundreds of obscure programs to collect billions.....bragging about his do-goodism, how the money was supposedly dispersed to "assist" endless charitable projects.

The IRS will ever look into the Foundation. Obama's protecting the Clintons---b/c they're his meal ticket.

All of them are living happily ever after--getting rich on "tolerance and compassion."

Obama gets a cut of every deal the Clintons make.

Explanation of Reports---The Clinton Global Initiative was separately incorporated during fiscal years 2010, 2011, and 2012 at the request of the Obama Administration while Secretary Clinton was in office. As a result, CGI filed separate 990s with the IRS during that time. In 2013, when Secretary Clinton left office, CGI returned to the Clinton Foundation.

The Clinton Health Access Initiative (formerly the Clinton HIV/AIDS Initiative) became a separately incorporated entity in fiscal year 2010 and remains so today. Under FASB and GAAP rules, the Clinton Foundation is required to consolidate CHAI's finances into its audited financial report given the relationship between the two entities. See the Clinton Health Access Initiative's financial reports.

A person may as well write a Mission Statement by selecting one word at a time from different pages in different books - it would make as much sense. I have read their flowery prose before and am not impressed. I would just like to know where their contributions to programs right here in the US are. Show us some success stories???
