Some Republicans have presented the embattled Clinton Foundation as serving one purpose: "lining the pockets of Bill and Hillary Clinton," as GOP Chair Reince Priebus put it.
Responding to such criticisms, Democratic pundit Hilary Rosen said the Clintons "take no personal benefit" from the foundation. She also pointed out the legitimate charitable work the foundation carries out, such as its programs addressing AIDS in Africa and storm recovery in Haiti.
"The Clinton Foundation is a charity where President and Secretary Clinton and their daughter, they take no salary, they get no money from it, they take no personal benefit from it," Rosen said on NPRs The Diane Rehm Show Aug. 24.
Thats a pretty wide gulf between the assertion that the foundation is just a front for the Clintons to make oodles of money and claims that they dont get any personal benefit. It made us wonder: What exactly do the Clintons get out of the foundation?
Bill Clinton is currently a member of the foundations board of directors, while Chelsea Clinton is vice chair. Hillary Clinton was a board member between leaving the State Department in 2013 through the launch of her presidential campaign in 2015. In the most recent year for which tax forms are available, 2014, the foundation reported that Chelsea Clinton worked 35 hours per week for the foundation and other related organizations, Bill Clinton worked 25 hours per work, and Hillary Clinton worked 20 hours per week.
The Clintons dont take a salary from this work, and they dont receive any other direct monetary benefit. Other Clinton Foundation leaders take home six-figure salaries, according to tax documents.

I believe I read that Chelsea Clinton is on the foundation payroll.
Did you read the Fact Check article you posted to me? They don’t support your premise at all.
I need accurate info or I’ll get ripped apart.
Those photos were probably taken before Chelsea’s mom and pretend dad bought it for her. I’m sure since moving in she and Mezvinsky have decorated in “shabby trailer park”.
Chelsea Clinton lives in a $10 million dollar apartment.......
Gee I wonder where she got the money for that?
#20 ACK! The neighbors must pull their drapes so as not to gaze upon Chelsea Clinton in that bath!!
Oh I feel so much better now.
The Foundation is in Little Rock, Ark. Chelsea lives in NYC in a $ multi million condo.
SHE works 35 hours a WEEK? HOW???
IF she is getting paid $400,000 a year & worked 35 hours a week, That amounts to almost $220 an hour for payment to someone who lives over 700 miles from the office!!!
The lies from the Clintons just NEVER stop coming.
They much think that will the number of years that American Education has been in tatters counts to put this over on everybody.
I read somewhere that all the records and computers are in upstate NY; you know .. dad’s place .. where Hillary kept her private servers.
I would bet that Jerry Jones doesn’t get a salary from the Cowboys either.
He just owns the team and its worth grows.
If these grifters shell is taking in hundreds of millions a year?
They would just have to pay taxes on it. The money is all theirs to use as they see fit. Why pay taxes on it?
ALL liberals think that they are the only ones who are intelligent.
Accordingly, it doesnt matter if the Clinton Foundation is an effective, efficient charity or not. If it isnt, it is a fraud, but even if it is, the fact that the name Clinton is associated with it is more than enough cause to implicate Hillary in a violation of the above constitutional mandate.
- Article 1 Section 9:
- No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States: and no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state
This is possible after being impeached from getting blow job in the Oval Office, hmmm.
Plus now here’s what we are up against with faked FAUX news’ TREASON to “We the People” and “For the People”........http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3465649/posts!!!
