It does look like she was fired as SOS, or left for health reasons. Regardless, this should be a campaign issue.

But compared to Bon Jovi, they do pretty good. Clinton Foundation only Expenses 90%, whereas Bon Jovi Expensed 97% on his Bogus Charity.

How the hell do Charity Watch and Charity Navigator give them “A” and “4 Star” ratings?!! Are they lib-dem controlled, too?

Excuse me .. but the Clinton’s tax returns show they do get donations from the Foundation.

So, the whole premise of this screed is a BIG FAT LIE.

I still believe there are many in Congress who are invested in the Clinton Foundation .. and the goal was to silence Congress .. which appears to have worked; most of them are worthless do nothings.

“...every dollar donated to the Clinton Foundation, 90 cents goes to admin expense (i.e. lining the pockets of Friends of the Clintons), the other 10 cents goes to actual work.”

Do you have any supporting documentation for this statement....I’d love to have that for my arsenal.

takes no money -

Then how does Chelsea have a $10 million apartment in NYC?

It’s not from her husband - he lost big time in his nefarious investments - he learned the shady side of investment from his father - and marrying into the Clinton machine was a perfect meld.

They probably get their money from other corporations that they own which bill the Foundation for bogus expenses.

You would have to be as gullible as a liberal democRAT to believe the malarkey from Rosen. The party is fortunate that their electorate is ever bit as stupid as Jonathan Grube admitted they are.

Better Business Bureau Clinton Foundation rating: Standards Not Met

And I was wrong about 10% going to "charity". It's actually only 6%:

Fact Check: Where does Clinton Foundation Money go?

Looks so cold and impersonal - fits the Clinton persona perfectly.

I’ll take my humble little house snuggled down in the north woods - I look out my windows and see no other houses, only my back yard full of flowers and birds - and occasional visit from a flower munching deer - and the forest that frames the yard - the sky and clouds and weather....and this is the scene I see out the window between my lap top and the larger monitor

Even if they took no salary or reimbursements (haha) then they still derive benefits via patronage jobs at the foundation AND apparently forcing others to contribute to their foundation in exchange for government favors.

the way it is done is to have several cut outs

the CF has a services contract with Corporation R that has contracts for services with corporation Dg that buys services from corporation Re3 that is domiciled in in Panama but works via the office in the Netherlands Antilles.

The Re3 corporation has bank accounts in Panama that pay for credit cards issued by a bank on the Isle of Mann to which Chelsea charges everything. Both Huma and Che-rill have similar cards issued by yet two other off shore banks.

It is truly mind boggling that so many of their followers/spokespersons are so naïve... What kind of people tie themselves to these snake oil salesmen? They have their old groupies and gather new ones every year. Astounding!

“”Americans seem to have forgotten that Hillary was fired from her job as Secretary of State.””

I guess we can be forgiven for forgetting something that never happened.....
