"Michelle on the payroll as a house lawyer - I remember seeing the number $340,000 as her salary."

I remember that.

Until her hubs was running for POTUS she made considerably less.

I know Harry Truman said that the only way to get rich in politics is to be a crook, but HST had no IDEA how you can get "rich", just by being a virtue-signalling, holier than thou government funded activist.

I'd LOVE an audit of these secular, leftist organizations that are "anti-poverty" and just how much "poverty" they've alleviated.

I'd guess that they haven't done jack $hit.

I'll go one further and guarantee these are simply shell organizations, that millions, if not billions of taxpayer $ have been simply shoveled into these groups.

Money laundering at its finest for the democratic party.

Venting.

I’m a firm believer in donating money to charities.

The charities I choose are all local and I donate directly to them. Why donate to the United Way, let them take their slice, and then give the remainder to a charity of their choosing? I’d much rather 100% of my donation go directly the the charity of my choice.

“The National Council of La Raza, a liberal Hispanic activist group recently renamed Unidos US, spent significantly more on lobbying — $1.3 million between 2013 and 2015 — than any other group analyzed by TheDCNF.”

This article doesn't surprise me in the least. Having spent 3 1/2 yrs. in my mid to late fifties unemployed and homeless (I now have a job that pays well) I took advantage of some of these programs and was able to pick myself back up. Seeing how these programs work from the inside I was stunned when I realized how much taxpayer money was flying around all these programs. Homelessness​ is a billion dollar industry. And yet they continually cry and moan that they need more money and that their budgets are constantly being cut. They don't really want to cure homelessness, otherwise, they would be out of business. While they will forever deny it, I wouldn't be surprised if they actually wanted even more. After all, how else can they expand and grow.
