Huh? The US is in Mosul now?

Are Vastly Different. Here’s How.
Just 5.7 percent of the Clinton Foundation’s massive 2014 budget actually went to charitable grants, according to the tax-exempt organization’s IRS filings. The rest went to salaries and employee benefits, fundraising and “other expenses.”
The Clinton Foundation spent a hair under $91.3 million in 2014, the organization’s IRS filings show. But less than $5.2 million of that went to charitable grants.
That number pales in comparison to the $34.8 million the foundation spent on salaries, compensation and employee benefits.
Another $50.4 million was marked as “other expenses,” while the remaining almost $851K was marked as “professional fundraising expenses.”
–Bill and Hillary Clinton had helped a Canadian financier named Frank Giustra and a small Canadian company obtain a lucrative uranium mining concession from the dictator in Kazakhstan;
–The same Canadian company, renamed Uranium One, bought uranium concessions in the United States;
–The Russian government came calling and sought to buy that Canadian company for a price that would mean big profits for the Canadian investors;
–For the Russians to buy that Canadian company, it would require the approval of the Obama administration, including Hillary’s State Department, because uranium is a strategically important commodity;
–Nine shareholders in Uranium One just happened to provide more than $145 million in donations to the Clinton Foundation in the run-up to State Department approval;
–Some of the donations, including those from the Chairman of Uranium One, Ian Teler, were kept secret, even though the Clintons promised to disclose all donations;
–Hillary’s State Department approved the deal;
–The Russian government now owns 20 percent of U.S. uranium assets.

What they are doing is the following:

As you can see there, the line item "Program Expenses" says (Percent of the charity’s total expenses spent on the programs
and services it delivers)
Breitbart sees that and pretends program expenses means they are keeping the money. Steve Bannon is a BS artist

You have to admit, that is an awful lot of overhead - not unlike a lot of charities, which enrich those at the top of it, or honestly, just pay too much to it's upper echelon staff. Sorry, don't buy the "we have to compete to get those guys". It's the same things the banks say to justify excessive CEO salaries, huge bonuses etc.
Oh, don't get me wrong. I have no doubt the Clinton foundation does good. I also have no doubt the are simultaneously enriching themselves.

What's funny, is friends I have always yell "SOROS FUNDS LEFT OF CENTER CAUSES! OMG!", yet strangely mute on the Koch brothers (among others).
I mean, I suspect they both suck, but you figure if your stance is rooting out the evil influence of money on the government and the big government chicanery, then both would bother you equally.

what's the point? I can't link you leftist news source you would trust, and non partisan journalism is non existent at this point. Left and almost all the media made a bet that Clinton will be the greatest thing since sliced bread, you put all media and leftist movement credibility on her after Obama and his wall street buddies had a way with us.
I'll just enjoy the show.
