Breitbart<\/a> posted an article today about donations<\/a> to the Clinton Foundation<\/a> since the 2016 election.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The latest tax filings released by the foundation a week ago showed that contributions dropped 42 percent in 2016\u00a0from $108 million to $63 million\u2014right around the time Clinton lost last year\u2019s presidential election, according to the New York Post<\/a>.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Donations tanked<\/a>\u00a0by 37 percent in 2015 after the organization tried to fend off allegations that Clinton had used the foundation to engage in pay-to-play schemes with foreign governments.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The former 2016 Democratic presidential nominee allegedly used the charity to solicit millions of dollars in donations from foreign governments and corporations in exchange for giving these entities favorable treatment while she served as Secretary of State<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Justice Department<\/a> announced<\/a>\u00a0Monday that the agency is weighing whether to appoint a special counsel to investigate the millions of dollars in Clinton Foundation donations tied to the Uranium One<\/a> deal, whereby the Obama administration<\/a> permitted\u00a0a Canadian company called Uranium One to sell one-fifth of America\u2019s uranium to Russia in 2010.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I don’t wish anyone ill, but the rumors of misuse of funds in the foundation have been around for years. In September 2015, Politico<\/a> posted an article about the Clinton Foundation’s activities in Haiti.<\/p>\n

Anyone who has done some basic research quickly discovers connections between donations to the Clinton Foundation and State Department<\/a> decisions. There is reason to believe that if Hillary Clinton<\/a> had become President those connections would have appeared at the executive level of our government. Therefore, it is not a surprise that as the influence of the Clinton family is waning, the donations to the Clinton Foundation are dropping. That’s not really rocket science.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
