It’s so questionable that Charity Navigator has the Clinton Foundation on its “watch list” of “problematic charities,” and the Sunlight Foundation’s Bill Allison says it operates more like “a slush fund for the Clintons.”

USA Today’s editors admit that “the foundation is a mess,” in a somewhat passive description that disconnects responsibility for that ethical morass from the Clintons themselves:

With Hillary Clinton running for president twice and serving as secretary of State in between, it was bound to be viewed as a way for foreign donors to get close to the Clintons a danger the foundation appears to have discounted.

well duh when you’re selling influence, you don’t have to give out grants you just pocket the cash and then destroy the evidence

It’s a curious case of accountability dodging on behalf of someone who wants to run for the country’s highest office.

something the Clinton’s have done their entire lives you don’t need actual accountable “accomplishments” when you’re peddling influence
