A representative for the foundation dismissed the substance of the allegations as unfounded.

"Time after time, the Clinton Foundation has been subjected to politically motivated allegations, and time after time these allegations have been proven false," Craig Minassian said in a statement to CNN. "The Clinton Foundation has demonstrably improved the lives of millions of people across America and around the world while earning top ratings from charity watchdog groups in the process. There are real issues in our society needing attention that the Clinton Foundation works hard to solve every day. So we're going to stay focused on what really matters."

2. Financial statements for the Clinton Foundation are at their website

For every year they have been in operation. Unlike the people making these allegations and pushing bogus claims, the Clinton Foundation and the Clintons have been transparent about where their money came from and where it went.

5. I always admire organizations AND politicians who are HONEST enough to be so transparent....

... others who hide, obscure, delay, make excuses, and provide only partial details are (in my view) DISHONEST and are (in my view) HIDING SOMETHING.

4. Clearly a distraction promulgated by Sessions and probably ordered up by Trump.

6. I'm of the belief and maybe incorrectly that when I was much younger,

there was a time when a non partisan body could fairly look at questions like this.

Trying to be objective and fair minded, I do think some legitimate questions were being asked of the Clinton Foundation in some media articles. I do not think the website or organization provided the solid data or evidence to answer all of the questions thoroughly.

But when people like Jeff Sessions, Trey Gowdy or Devin Nunes are provided the power and authority to try to obtain answers to those legitimate questions, we know that isn't going to deliver any answers we can have any confidence in - like we saw with Benghazi or the probe looking info Russia's involvement in the 2016 election.

Their efforts here just strike me as a witch hunt to try to take the heat off Trump. They're not interested in the truth. They're interested in smearing Hillary to help prop up the buffoon they installed in the White House who is ignorant enough to go along with their heartless programs.
