McCain Institute for International Leadership executives refuse to disclose how much money big donors have contributed to the nonprofit that’s named after Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain, The Daily Caller News Foundation Investigative Group has learned.

[snip]“McCain-Feingold” — that required public disclosure of all contributions of at least $250 in federal elections.

Spokesmen for the McCain Institute and for the Arizona State University (ASU) Foundation — where the nonprofit’s finances are held — refused to divulge any dollar amounts from big ticket donors despite repeated requests by TheDCNF.

[That is why they are all so incurious about Hillary’s foundation.]

Exactly, it’ll open the floodgates for inquiries.

Foundations are money laundering operations for crooked pols to hide big money donors.

Interesting photoshop.

If President Trump, hopefully, does issue the 1st EO mentioned in the article, then all McCain will have for medical insurance is Medicare, Tricare for Life (which acts as the medigap insurance for retired military) and the VA. However, he does have his wife’s fortune to pay cash for his medical treatment, which nearly all of us don’t have.

Be interesting to see if his wife cares enough to waste wealth on his sorry butt.

A lot of money from enemy islamists and their facilitators.

Taxpayers demand to know the scope and dimension of government insiders ability to collude in sub rosa deals and who might be personally profiting.

Amen to that...

Too bad McCain will not be alive to watch his defeat in next primary. The bastage is not up for re-election until 2022.

RICO for ALL the DEMOCRATS!!

LOL. Now I can see why Bashar Assad got into trouble. He forgot to pay off McCain.

[apocalypto]

The only explanation: McCain Institute is hiding something damaging.

No one could be a bigger loser.

The fund that bears McCain’s name received its exempt status in July of 2014. It was worth between seven and eight million dollar at that time. What was more instructive was it was said to be showing between $1.7 to $1.8 in interest.

Looks like Big Brother in that pic.

[Hojczyk]

These Foundations are nothing but legal kick backs for the chosen..were just surfs..

That is why they will never investigate the Clinton's

[Ann Archy]

ANOTHER Slush Fund....just like the Clinton’s!

[thinden]

What I am getting from this story is that they are all using the foundation scam to hide obvious quid pro quo donations.

That is why they are all so incurious about Hillary’s foundation.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

yup everybody in congress is getting on the foundation train.

even the bern has his own foundation now.

At the very beginning of his acceptance speech in 2008 he said “They broke me”. I knew he was sending a message to the democrats letting them know that they would not have to put the truth out about his traitorous actions in Vietnam. He knew they KNEW and he was not going to even try to win.

John McCain is an embarrassment to America, an embarrassment to Arizona, and even an embarrassment to Scotland.

Well it is good that McCain completely outed himself before he croaks.....we will know how to evaluate his legacy....
