Records: Hillary Clinton Has Donated $70,000 To Veterans
Breitbart ^ | 6/1/2016 | Charlie Spiering

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her husband Bill Clinton have donated $70,000 to veterans and military groups from their personal Clinton Family Foundation in recent years, according to public records. The list of donations from the Clintons is not comprehensive, but is dwarfed by Donald Trump’s release of a list of 41 groups that identified donations of $5.6 million to veterans groups.

“Find out how much Hillary Clinton’s given to the veterans,” Trump dared reporters gathered at Trump Tower yesterday. “Nothing.”

According to recent public records of the Clinton Family Foundation, the family donated $25,000 in 2009, $20,000 in 2010, $5,000 in 2011, $15,000 in 2012, and in 2014, they donated $5,000.

The Clintons, however, have funneled millions of their charitable dollars to the Clinton Foundation, an organization that does not disclose its donations publicly. The Clinton Foundation did not respond to a request for detailed donations to veterans and military groups.

Last year the Clintons released eight years of tax returns, revealing the couple had earned $139 million in adjusted gross income from 2007 to 2014 and gave almost $15 million to charity in that period, but it is unclear how much of that money went to veterans. The Clinton campaign did not respond to a request for comment.

huma started a muslim group when she was in college. Her mother is head of the female “brotherhood. I’d say she’s connected. Hillary attended fundraisers sponsored by muslims.

Let me correct this....

Hillary Clinton and her husband Bill Clinton have written checks totaling $70,000 to veterans and military groups from their personal Clinton Family Foundation in recent years, which raised the funds from others. So Hillary Clinton and her husband Bill Clinton have donated ZERO to veterans and military groups from their personal funds!

The corrupt news media went after Donald Trump over him giving $5.6 million and not $6 million as he stated (he will soon top the amount) but zero questions to Hillary Clinton for a paltry $70,000 which more then likely was kicked back to them.

Busted! The media busted Trump again. See, he lied. She donated money to the military families.

According to recent public records of the Clinton Family Foundation, the family donated $25,000 in 2009, $20,000 in 2010, $5,000 in 2011, $15,000 in 2012, and in 2014, they donated $5,000.

Wow! Anyone else impressed?

That's because within the details is the devil.

I'd wager that even this relatively minuscule $70,000 donation numbers is fudged.

Notice that they went back to 2009 to come up with those numbers for Hillary. Than compared them to the one time Trump event that occurred 3 months ago. They did not go back in time to see what Trump has donated since 2009 to be comparable. What a bunch of phony bastards the media is.
