Wow, one million dollars.

The data is from the Form 990 that is publicly available data on file at www.guidestar.org.

The "donation" was reported on the 2014 tax form. Good look and see on page 15 or 44 pages.

Right below the Saudi donation is a $300,000 donation from Eranda Foundation in Leighton Buzzard, LU7 OXF, UNITED KINGDOM. What the heck is this?

HilLIARy took a reported $200,000,000.00 plus in bribes from Saudi and other Muslim dictatorships. Hopefully djt will be able to flush our both McShame and HilLIARy and -— and-— all of the purchased, sold/ out political hacks and, in effect, agents of our enemies

http://dailycaller.com/2017/06/19/exclusive-soros-clinton-linked-teneo-among-donors-to-mccain-institute/

...The institute has accepted contributions of as much as $100,000 from billionaire liberal activist-funder George Soros and from Teneo, a for-profit company co-founded by Doug Band, former President Bill Clinton’s “bag man.” Teneo has long helped enrich Clinton through lucrative speaking and business deals.

And Bloomberg reported in 2016 on a $1 million Saudi Arabian donation to the institute, a contribution the McCain group has refused to explain publicly.

In addition, the institute has taken at least $100,000 from a Moroccan state-run company tied to repeated charges of worker abuse and exploitation. The McCain group has also accepted at least $100,000 from the Pivotal Foundation, which was created by Francis Najafi who owns the Pivotal Group, a private equity and real estate firm.

The Pivotal Foundation has in the last three years given $205,000 to the National Iranian-American Council (NIAC), which has been a vocal advocate for the Iranian nuclear deal the Obama administration negotiated...

...McCain and Soros reportedly became friends after the senator was exposed as a member of the “Keating Five” during the savings and loan (S&L) industry scandal...

Conservatives who are anxious for conflict with Iran should not forget the financial ties like this between American politicians and Iran's enemies.

It is shocking to see the number of folks who rely on the evening “news.”

If Sessions is awake, maybe he could look into this. McCain has a criminal history while serving in Congress.

The Keating Five was NOT an aberration, IMHO.
