Someone please define the word “charity” for me as I don’t have my Websters with me at the moment, and then apply it to the below email I received from a friend today. Am I an idiot, an imbecile or just a silly conservative who shouldn’t be asking such stupid questions? As my fiend says he cannot state with certainty if these figures are genuine, but it seems the document is valid. Like CNN would say, it came from an undisclosed source.
Clinton Foundation IRS information
I have attempted to fact check this before sending, as from various web sites, including the left leaning SNOPES, and the referenced National Center for Charitable Statistics. I cannot disprove it. It appears to be genuine. Though you might be interested in the numbers.
Have you wondered why the Clinton Foundation folded so suddenly after Hillary was no longer in a position of influence? Perhaps this summary will provide some insight?
This is real. You can check the return yourself (see below). The real heart of the Clinton’s can be seen here. Staggering but not surprising. The below figures are from an official copy of the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation tax return for 2014, found on the National Center for Charitable Statistics web site. You can obtain the latest tax return on any charitable organization there.
The Clinton Foundation:
Number of Employees (line 5) 486
Total revenue (line 12) $177,804,612.00
Total grants to charity (line 13) $5,160,385.00 (this is less than 3%)
Total expenses: $91,281,145.00
Expenses include:
Salaries (line 15) $34,838,106.00
Fund raising fees (line 16a) $850,803.00
Other expenses (line 17) $50,431,851.00
Travel $8,000,000.00
Meetings $12,000,000.00
Net assets/fund balances (line 22) $332,471,349.00
So it required 486 people, who were paid $34.8 million, plus $91.3 million in fees and expenses, to give away $5.1 MILLION! And they called this a CHARITY?
This is one of the greatest white-collar crimes ever committed. And just think, one of the participants was a former president and one wanted to be elected President of the United States. If justice was truly served, they would both be in prison.
Feel free to pass this on to your friends so they can also be informed.
