96% of the Clinton’s donations to charity last year went to The Clinton Foundation
In an attempt to shame Donald Trump into releasing his tax returns–which he should do by the way–and also in an attempt to distract the American people from the recently released emails which show a cozy relationship between the Clinton Foundation and the State Department and a possible pay to play scheme, Bill and Hillary Clinton released their 2015 tax return earlier today.
However it turns out this just might play into the narrative the Clinton’s were hoping to distract us from because it turns out that while the Clinton’s donated over $1,000,000 to charity 96% of the donations went to The Clinton Foundation.
Here is more:
96 percent of the roughly one million dollars given to charity by Bill and Hillary Clinton in 2015 was given to the Clinton Family Foundation, a tax-exempt charity controlled by the Clintons.
According to the tax return released by the Clinton campaign Friday, Desert Classic Charities received $42,000 from the Clintons while the Clinton Family Foundation received a cool million.
$42,000 of the remaining 4% went to Desert Classic Charities which turned around and donated $700,000 to The Clinton Foundation.
The Desert Classic Charities in turn contributed $700,000 to the second Clinton charity, the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation.
Oh what a tangled web we weave…
The tax returns also show us that with an income of $10 million last year their earnings were cut by almost a third from the previous year because once she announced her bid for the Presidency Bill Clinton was basically the only source of income. I suppose Hillary Clinton will use this as an example of how she is sacrificing for the greater good, but of course that would be contingent on the American people forgetting how the Clinton’s have apparently used their tax-exempt foundation to allegedly enrich themselves in the first place.

Not that any of us are truly surprised by this bombshell but my gosh! How many despicable acts, how many criminal activities, how many lies and how much just plain audacity of this woman will it take for her to have to face the music? Seems like every time I turn on the TV (well, not MAINSTREAM media that is) or pick up a paper or turn on my computer I hear of some new tid-bit about Hildabeast. Yet, her followers continue in blind adoration…unreal.

I share your frustration Lorra! At this point her supporters know how corrupt she is and they just don’t seem to care.

Of course she knows she can go after Trump because she has the protection of the media.

Judge Napolitono explains the bs the DOj is spinning.
Why DOJ had a press conference to deny an investigation when the US Attorney for the southern district of NY is conducting an investigation. The SD NY is where Comey was the US Attorney. This district has prosecuted many high profile nation (Madoff) and international fraud cases.

It will be interesting to see if he takes this all the way or if he is “convinced” it would be in his best interest to let this go…

They say “charity begins at home”. The Clintons were just following this advice.

The first 3 minutes of this video talks about the pay to play the Clintons were operating. It would appear Hillary needs to be indicted before Nov. so Obama can pardon her. If she is indicted after Nov. and the Republicans are still in control of the Senate they would have to impeach her. A Gordian Knot would be created since many of the Senators have their own pay to play schemes.

For some reason the video wouldn’t play for me but what you wrote was interesting. Hillary could very well be running for her freedom as well as for the Presidency!

Ask any Haitian about the Clintons and they will tell you how crooked they are. They took the money raised for rebuilding Haiti for themselves, leaving countless survivors to die without shelter.
