You Know The IRS Should Be Investigating The Clinton Foundation

Prior to Halloween, The Wall Street Journal asked a very good question: why isn’t the IRS investigating the Clinton Foundation? Leaving out the obvious political stains from their scandal, in which they targeted conservative organizations seeking tax-exempt status, it’s a legitimate inquiry. Wikileaks was able to shed light on what top Bill Clinton aide Doug Band, who helped start the Clinton Foundation and went on to co-found his own consulting firm, Teneo, called Bill Clinton, Inc. The 13-page memo described how money could be obtained to go to both the Clinton Foundation and to the Clintons personally. That strategy centered on using the Foundation’s top tier donor base (Dow Chemical, Coca-Cola, etc.) to also forge paid speaking engagements and consulting deals. The amount that Bill could personally reap with this strategy could be as much as $66 million if everything remained in place.
