Report: Only 6% Clinton Foundation Expenditures Go To Charity
Breitbart.com ^ | 27 April 2015 | Pam Key

Monday on Fox Business Network’s “The Willis Report,” host Gerri Willis broke down the charitable spending of the Clinton Foundation.

Willis said, “What if you were to analyze the Clinton Foundation like any charitable organization? That is a question that we’re asking tonight. Does the Clinton Foundation wisely spend charitable dollars? Well the experts weighed in. The answer is a resounding no. One expert even called it a slush fund for the Clintons. These are not politicos. These are charity experts.”

“Charity Navigator, who we have on the show all the time, placed the Clinton Foundation on a watch list,” she continued. “They think there are problems with this non-profit.” She added, “Any Democrat—they say what a wonderful charitable organization it is doing to help people in need, people who are hungry, people who have AIDS. Listen, 6 percent of the money it collected in 2013, 6 percent — $9 million, of the $140 million in total it collected, went to help people.”

Washington Free Beacon’s Liz Harrington weighed in saying, “The numbers just don’t add up. One of the biggest offenses of the Clinton Foundation came out yesterday — 88 percentof the their expenditures go directly to their charitable programs. That is just simply not true. As you mentioned, they raked in $140 million. They only spent nine million on direct aid. Most of their money goes towards salaries, bonuses, to close friends, folks tied to the Clinton campaign.”

I think Slush Fund is the appropriate term. Hillary's political future just went into the toilet. She's toast.

So where did the other 94% of the money go? Into Hillary’s pocket? Into Bill’s pocket?? Into Chelsea’s $10 million swank Manhattan condo???

From what we know of the money grubbing Clintons it’s amazing ANY money goes to real people in need.

But Hillary won’t go quietly.

Will we reach a point where leading Democrats have an intervention type meeting, and tell her it’s over???

All of this news is very bad news for HIllary, however, if nobody steps up to challenge her in the primaries, she will still get the Dem. nomination by default.

And I'd guess since it's a charity, that $140 million was tax free, and tax deductible to those who donated.

When will Harry Reid proclaim that the Clintons don't pay taxes?

It's a vacation/slush/retirement fund for the Clintons and a few hundred of their close ‘associates’...

I'm surprised the Clintons haven't hired Bernie Madoff to bamboozle stray suckers.

As I understand it in order to maintain a ax exempt status a “Charitable Foundation” must distribute at least 15% of its assets each and every year to charitable works. The Klintons may be in even more trouble than expected.

slightly off topic, but, if the evil 1% have stacked the deck and all that, as Hillary says, then how come liberals are allowed to benefit from that?? Why isn’t Hillary’s son in law called out as a member of the evil 1% hedge fund monsters???

They did NOT spend any on: Charm school, fat farms, decent plastic surgery, or attractive clothes.

How does 9 million dollars go to support the 400 million people the Clintons say they have helped? Especially when you take into consideration part of that 9 million went to whoever was administering the program in the local economy.

This touches on another potential Clinton scandal which the MSM hasn’t dug into yet, the issue of Bill going to that island full of teenage girls.

OMG, how will they justify charitable expenses there? Say that Bill was making charitable contributions to the girls welfare and all that??? Holy Toledo.
