http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2015/05/31/clintons_corruption_126800.htmlForty-five percent was spent on salaries, perks and travel for staff.
Some senior staffers have more experience in politics than in charity work. Sidney Blumenthal was on the Clinton Foundation payroll while he was running a private intelligence service for Ms. Clinton.
The intelligence he gave her was mostly the opinions of Libyans with whom Mr. Blumenthal was drumming up business. He didnt disclose his dealings in extensive correspondence with the secretary of state, an apparent violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
Mr. Blumenthal had no security clearance but exchanged sensitive material, some of which has since been classified. Former CIA Deputy Director Michael Morell is certain Ms. Clintons private server was hacked by foreign intelligence services.

(31,518 posts)She referred us to page 10 of the 2013 990 form for the Clinton Foundation. When considering the amount spent on charitable work, she said, one would look not just at the amount in grants given to other charities, but all of the expenses in Column B for program services. That comes to 80.6 percent of spending. (The higher 89 percent figure we cited earlier comes from a CharityWatch analysis of the Clinton Foundation and its affiliates.)

4:55 is hilarious, he then goes on to the part where she says, "NY has always had my back, and I have always tried to have yours!"
It also has a great part on the panel where they are talking about the voting issues in NY and one of them said he could not vote. The whole episode was good actually.
