Unable to escape federal investigation for more than a period of weeks, following the FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email server came a federal investigation into the Clinton Foundation.
The charity has been under fire over accusations that it’s really a personal slush fund for the Clintons. It only gives ten cents on the dollar of the revenue it brings in towards charitable grants, which puts it among the worst charities in the country. Reputable charities like the American Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders both give over 90 cents on the dollar towards aid.

So where is the other 90 percent going? Salaries, rent, IT, travel, etc. If there’s not fraud at work here, we should be even more horrified by the thought that Hillary Clinton would run a country as efficiently as she runs her charitable organization.

Further playing into speculation, the Associated Press released a report showing that at least half of those she met with her at the State Department had been donors to the Clinton Foundation. That should raise a red flag for even the most diehard Clinton supporter.

The Clinton Foundation has likely been doling out favors via the State Department – and as the New York Times uncovered, the State Department has done some good for the Foundation too.

Ever wonder how to get a ride on a private jet? The Clintons figured it out pretty well while Hillary Clinton served as Secretary of State, as the New York Times explains today. New e-mails emerging from a FOIA lawsuit brought by Judicial Watch explain how Bill Clinton got the use of Dow Chemical’s private jet by having the Clinton Foundation and Bill himself arrange a one-on-one meeting with Hillary for its CEO and major donor through Huma Abedin at the State Department.
The emails released by Judicial Watch also include discussions about meetings between Mrs. Clinton and a number of people involved in major donations to the Clinton Foundation.

In one exchange in July 2009, Ms. Abedin told Mrs. Clinton’s scheduler that Mr. Clinton “wants to be sure” that Mrs. Clinton would be able to see Andrew Liveris, the chief executive of Dow Chemical, at an event the next night. Dow Chemical has been one of the biggest donors to the Clinton Foundation, giving $1 million to $5 million, records show.
Ms. Abedin arranged what she called “a pull-aside” for Mr. Liveris to speak with Mrs. Clinton in a private room after she arrived to give a speech, according to the emails, which did not explain the reason for the meeting.
In response, the Clinton campaign attacked Judicial Watch as a “right-wing organization that has been going after the Clintons since the 1990s.” My response to that claim is the same as their claim that the hacked DNC emails were only obtained because of hackers that are Russian in origin: so what?

The source doesn’t matter if what they provided hasn’t been tampered with. There may be a “vast right wing conspiracy” at work here, but that conspiracy is turning up information that’s hardly conspiratorial.
