Donations to the Clinton Foundation nose-dived last year amid Hillary Clinton’s presidential run, pay-to-play allegations, internal strife and a black mark from a charity watchdog.
Contributions fell by 37 percent to $108 million, down from $172 million in 2014, according to the group’s latest tax filings.
The cash plummeted as Hillary Clinton left the nonprofit in April 2015 after announcing her ill-fated candidacy. The foundation became a major issue in the race, with Donald Trump vowing to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate it.
Whether that effort will go forward is not clear. Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), head of the House Oversight Committee, has indicated a probe into the foundation will continue.
Not only did contributions drop, but so did revenue the Clintons brought in from speeches. That income fell to $357,500 from $3.6 million in 2014.

Hard to peddle influence when you have no influence to peddle.
Let’s hope they invested it well... /s
“Contributions fell by 37 percent to $108 million,”
Someone still thinks they are buying something.
And they’ll fall a lot more this coming fiscal year.....I wonder if any donors will ask for refunds for breach of contract.....
One of the most delicious results of Hillary’s ignominious loss is the fact that Soros, Tom Steyer, Silicon Valley techtards,and most of the Middle Eastern Muslim leaders lost millions supporting her. Priceless.
The Dallas IRS Office That's Quietly Determining the Fate of the Clinton Foundation
In Washington, D.C., many things start with words printed on congressional letterhead. Earlier this year, 64 GOP members of Congress asked the IRS to investigate why the foundation can keep its nonprofit status. The letter includes “media reports” claiming pay-to-play relationships between former President Bill Clinton, who received large speaking fees, and decisions made by Hillary Clinton to approve choices that benefited foundation donors. The sources of these reports range from The New York Times to hit-piece investigative books.
In July, the IRS sent letters back to the Congress informing members the review had begun. The letter also noted that the Tax Exempt and Government Entities Division (TE/GE) office in Dallas would be conducting the review.
If Hillary had won the election, it would have likely been whitewashed. But now, it will be interested: they will have to answer to Trump's appointee.
The Gravy Train has been derailed!
Well, Chelsea did say she didn’t care about money. She may get her wish.
Pray America woke
Yeah, this will really hit them hard because they didn’t build up a huge nest egg or anything.
Wonder if the Arabs want their money returned ?
Wait til investors start asking for refunds...in court.
Well bless her heart!
I'm all for praying that we woke and for acting as "alarm clocks" for those that show the tendency to be able to listen and understand.
One of the most delicious results of Hillary’s ignominious loss is the fact that Soros....lost millions supporting her. Priceless.

And that’s not all. The DOJ will soon be in a position to start looking into Soro’s shady dealings. In addition, the congress should force him to appear and answer questions about his role in undermining our elections. Time to put the squeeze on him big time.
Obviously some people are still being fooled part of the time...
The donors are busy trying to cover their tracks.
Look for a few high profile figures turning state’s evidence if the SHTF.
No more product on the shelves.
