the far right politics industry

Former Alabama judge Roy Moore, a Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, once said publicly that he did not take a “regular salary” from the small charity he founded to promote Christian values because he did not want to be a financial burden.

But privately, Moore had arranged to receive a salary of $180,000 a year for part-time work at the Foundation for Moral Law, internal charity documents show. He collected more than $1 million as president from 2007 to 2012, compensation that far surpassed what the group disclosed in its public tax filings most of those years.

When the charity couldn’t afford the full amount, Moore in 2012 was given a promissory note for back pay eventually worth $540,000 or an equal stake of the charity’s most valuable asset, a historic building in Montgomery, Ala., mortgage records show. He holds that note even now, a charity official said.

The charity has employed at least two of Moore’s children, although their compensation is not reflected in tax filings. Moore’s wife, Kayla, who is now president, was paid a total of $195,000 over three years through 2015.

BEING A RIGHT WING POLITICIAN IS A VERY PROFITABLE BUSINESS, JUST ASK SARAH PALIN, NEW GINGRICH, GROVER NORQUIST AND DOZENS MORE.

They should model their charities like the Clinton Foundation. Then it would all be legit.

 

[ThunderCat98]

I agree that this is shady. However, your inability to criticize the Clintons for the same exact type of shady dealings is hypocritical.

 

[dherd]

that is correct herdman every charity should be run like the clinton foundation. no salaries to the
principles or their families.

Rosen’s claim is correct on its face. The Clintons do not take any sort of paycheck, bonus or fees from the Clinton Foundation.

WE ALREADY KNOW TRUMP USES HIS "TO WHICH HE HAS NEVER CONTRIBUTED USES HIS AS A SLUSH
FUND TO BUY PAINTINGS OF HIMSELF.

MAYBE SOME OF THESE CHARITIES SHOULD SPEND MONEY ON EDUCATING CONSERVATIVES LIKE TO STOP QUOTING RUSSIAN TROLL SITES.

Do you have a credible source stating that the Clinton's take money from their charity?

My remark isn’t an answer to your question. It is a comment on how the Clintons utilized their foundation for financial gain.

PUTTING ASIDE THIS ACCUSATION COMES FROM EMAILS STOLEN BY RUSSIA AND RELEASED ON A RUSSIAN
PROPAGANDA SITE.

THIS IS THE RESULT OF AN INTERNAL AUDIT. YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE PURPOSE OF AN INTERNAL AUDIT WHICH IN THIS CASE IS THE PROCESS OF HIRING OUTSIDE ATTORNEY OR CPA TO EXAMINE THE
ORGANIZATION TO SEARCH OUT ANY POSSIBLE ETHICS QUESTIONS SO THEY CAN BE CORRECTED IN AN EFFORT TO DO EVERYTHING NOT ONLY LEGALLY BUT ETHICALLY ABOVE REPROACH.

SO IT IS EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU REPRESENT. IN THIS PARTICULAR INSTANCE THEY ARE LOOKING AT WHETHER FOUNDATION EMPLOYEES DID ANY WORK THAT BENEFITED PRESIDENT CLINTON.
OR WHETHER THERE ARE ECONOMIC CONFLICTS OF INTEREST - THERE WERE NONE.

WHAT TRUMP DID WAS TO PICK OUT A SINGLE LINE IN ONE OF THOUSANDS OF EMAILS THAT USED SOME LOSE LANGUAGE "BILL CLINTON, INC." IN AN ATTEMPT TO MAKE SOMETHING INNOCENT LOOK UNETHICAL - IF YOU CAN IMAGINE DONALD TRUMP ACCUSING ANYONE OF BEING UNETHICAL.

ONE LAST THING - BILL AND HILLARY CLINTON'S POLITICAL ENEMIES - NEWT GINGRICH AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY SPENT OVER $100,000,000 OF TAXPAYER MONEY LOOKING AT EVERY CHECK PAID OR RECIEVED, EVERY LOAN APPLICATION, LITERALLY EVERY TRANSACTION THE CLINTONS WERE EVER A PART OF AND FOUND NOT
A SINGLE THING THEY HAD DONE WRONG. THEY WERE SO CLEAN GINGRICH HAD TO FIND SOMETHING AND WHEN STARR TOLD HIM THERE WAS NOTHING GINGRICH THREATENED HIM THAT HE BETTER FIND SOMENTING. HENCE THE PERJURY TRAP REGARDING A GIRL FRIEND. KEEPING IN MIND GINGRICH WAS DOING EXACTLY THE SAME THING WITH HIS THIRD WIFE WHILE MARRIED TO HIS SECOND WIFE.

“Doug Band, a long-time aide to Bill Clinton“

“Independent of our fundraising and decision-making activities on behalf of the Foundation, we have dedicated ourselves to helping the President secure and engage in for-profit activities — including speeches, books, and advisory service engagements," Band wrote. "In that context, we have in effect served as agents, lawyers, managers and implementers to secure speaking, business and advisory service deals. In support of the President’s for-profit activity, we also have solicited and obtained, as appropriate, in-kind services for the President and his family — for personal travel, hospitality, vacation and the like.”

DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT THE WORDS INDEPENDENT AND APPROPRIATE MEAN?

NO WONDER WE HAVE A MORON AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES AND THE WORLD IS LAUGHING AT US.

“Band said he and Justin Cooper, another long-time aide, weren’t separately compensated for helping Bill Clinton profit.“

 

[Herdfaninnoke]

“We do not receive a fee for, or percentage of, the more than $50 million in for-profit activity we have personally helped to secure for President Clinton to date or the $66 million in future contracts, should he choose to continue with those engagements,” he continued.
