INVESTIGATING THE CLINTON FAMILY FOUNDATION

   Documents obtained from the State of Georgia show that Clinton Foundation directors grievously failed to protect the federal, state and foreign tax-exempt status of the Arkansas Foundation on or after early November 2013. In the initial 2012 tax filing submitted in 2013 and the amended 2012 tax filing submitted in 2015 the Arkansas Clinton Foundation claimed just three directors: Bruce Lindsey (also a paid officer), then-Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe (a long-time friend, political ally, and fundraiser) and daughter Chelsea Clinton.

    According to the Georgia records, effective Nov. 2, 2013, the Clinton Foundation attempted to concentrate control over its operations in the hands of Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton by naming these three family members “Class A directors.”
   They also awarded extraordinary powers to the Clintons as Class A directors, including authority to control all aspects of the charity’s work in between official meetings of the board without oversight of Class B directors.

     Records available through the New York State Attorney General Charities Database (insert “Clinton Family Foundation” or “30-0048438” into relevant search fields) show that the Clinton Family Foundation contributed a total of $3,365,000 in 2014 and 2015 to an entity incorrectly described as the “William J. Clinton Foundation.”
