    • Do people know that the Clintons themselves don't get that money? Close to 90% of the foundation's money goes to their causes.nb
    • I'm not saying this story isn't relevant. It is. But it's not really corruption. Those donors were contributing to charities and development projects.nb
    • I thought 90% went to them & running the foundation, and only 10% to their "causes," which is like most of the large charities and funds.monospaced
    • How about when one of those Clinton charities or development projects is opposing BDS in favor of occupying and colonizing Palestine's land.KaitlinMcCarthy
    • @monospaced, no, it's the other way. BUT, a very important point is that the Clinton Foundation operates a lot of projects themselves. It's a unique model.nb
    • An argument can be made that by operating projects themselves promotes better outcomes, but it's not a great idea politically.nb
    • the important point is that the donators not only get money toward a cause, they get access to the secretary, which is shady as fuckmonospaced
    • The word is "donors" but yeah I agree with you. It's shady. But it's not evidence of corruption. Not yet, anyway.nb
    • 1/10th of Clinton contributions go to charity. The other is claimed from giving "public speeches. https://pjmedia.com/…KaitlinMcCarthy
