Clinton Foundation Taxes Reveal Just How Little They Give To Charity, But It Gets WORSE:
Angry Patriot Movement ^ | today | Angry Patriot Movement

Hillary did her best to rake Trump over the coals over his charities, but she is the one Americans should have been asking questions about all along.

Not only is the amount of money actually sent out minuscule, the Clinton Foundation has been lying about the care it supposedly provides to the poor in the form of prescription medicine, via ProudCons.com.

While Hillary and company claim to provide much needed drugs to third-world countries, that duty is actually handled by a separate charity, the Clinton Health Access Initiative.

But, as always, Hillary likes to twist the facts just to draw attention away from the real issues. In this case, she’s hoping you won’t notice the corrupt foundation her daughter runs.

In its IRS filings, the Clinton Foundation paid out over $91 million, but only roughly $5 million of that actually went to charitable grants! At that point, you really shouldn’t be able to call yourself a charity anymore!

Where did this money go you ask?

Well, almost $35 million went out to salaries, with Chelsea reportedly earning close to $1 million. Compare that to the salary of the CEO of the Salvation Army, who makes less than $200,000!

The rest of the money was tagged for various expenses. And yes, the math means about $50 million went out the door as “other” costs.

An interesting fact from the Clinton tax returns, which the media have not highlighted, is that the Clintons gave a $1 million charitable contribution to their own charity.

While apparently perfectly legal, something doesn’t smell right, if you take charitable contribution tax exemptions, for contributions to a family charity which you yourself control.

Well, if Chelsea’s wedding was among those “other” expenses, one could see how it would add up...

IIRC, the foundation filed 5 years of revised tax forms.

Now, to seal the deal, retroactively revoke their non-profit status.

The collector’s will be knocking on the Clinton’s door.

The question always begging for an answer is ----did the buck-raking
charitable Clinton Foundation use the money solicited for "charity" go to the intended charity?

========================================

THE INFAMOUS PODESTA EMAIL DUMPS Mention CHAI, AFL-CIO, Deutsche Bank.......indicates Podesta aided and abetted the Clinton Foundation's tax fraud and money laundering.

<><> ....(money raised for) the Island initiative budget "as is" includes a $100,000 salary for Ira (on top of his CHAI salary) and a staff of nine (that Ira said he did not need) .....

<><> ...... Swedish post code lottery donor funds (to be split among them)......

<><>....using Clinton Foundation funds to fund AFL-CIO/pension fund retrofit work.

LINK https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/9938

=========================================

<><> ITEM----The legal culpability of a tax-free "charity" consists of:

<><> soliciting and taking money, and,

<><> showing how they spend it.

I think if you went and checked MOST charity foundations....they generally all do the same thing. A handful might achieve fifty-percent toward charity situations but if you went and looked at travel expenses or operational costs....they all have problems.

I just love to see how that little expense ($3.0 million as I recall) is handled in the various Clinton Tax Returns. To be a fly on the wall in the Trump Administration IRS. Now that would be a real treat.

THIS JUST IN (hat tip NY POST)

Trump admin to pressure foreign states to probe Clinton Foundation (targeting Haiti and Columbia)

Foreign governments began turning off money spigots to the scandal-scarred Clinton Foundation; it received millions from dozens of foreign governments including Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the Netherlands, Canada, Sweden and Ireland.

<><> French federal comptrollers began following a trail of tens of millions in government money that ended up in Clinton Foundation coffers, according to a document reviewed by The NY Post.<><> The Australian government announced that it would end its decade-long affiliation with the Clinton Foundation — amounting to as much as $25 million, according to the foundation’s Web site.<><> Norway is also scaling back; donations reached $25 million in 2015.

A source close to Pres-elect Trump's transition team indicated plans to pressure its yet unnamed US ambassadors to suggest foreign governments probe its ­Clinton Foundation financial dealings. “Haiti and Colombia will be key diplomatic posts because of all the money ­involved,” said the source.

Recently leaked ­e-mails indicate “Friends of Bill” Clinton may have been given priority from the State Department as it prepared to spend some $10 billion in aid after a 2010 devastating earthquake in Haiti. The State Dept denied any special treatment.

Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra pledged $100 million to the foundation in 2005 and later benefited from the foundation’s philanthropic work in Columbia where Giustra acquired large parcels of land and set up an oil business, ­according to watchdog groups. (FR POSTED)

Stupid.

I'm not defending the clinton Foundation specifically but most charities don't donate a lot to other charities. They use the money they get for direct charitable purposes.

Remember the Wounded Warrior Project scandal? This became a huge scandal while they were spending 60% of their budget on wounded vets. Still it was bad. What the Clinton’s did with just 6% verified is 10 times worse.

If you want to know what the Clinton Foundation is/was about, just look at the donations since election day.

Kellyanne Conway has suggested Trump is not interested in trying to “hurt” Clinton because he said so, and that those in Congress pursuing open investigations should take a cue from the president elect and recommends they not pursue “what was said in a campaign”.

I am watching this play out, because such a 180 on equal justice is too shocking for words.

I am with you Rita. It would have been better for him to say nothing. After all it is an independent AG's job to go after cases like Hillary's. The goal is NOT vengeance but rather equal justice under the law.

I got it that the best thing to happen for the nation to heal is for the Clintons to just GO AWAY. But with this recount stunt, that’s off the table. The Clintons now deserve the Bush Dynasty treatment.......forever identified as despicable.

The IRS has long turned a blind eye to all the tax shenanigans of the Clinton Foundation. If any other erstwhile charity were doing this the IRS and FBI would be knocking down the door and seizing records. Again the laws do not apply to the Clinton’s
