Report: Taxpayers' money helped fund Clinton email server and foundation
- 8 years ago
Taxpayers unknowingly helped pay for Hillary Clinton's private email server and subsidize the family's foundation.
A report from Politico found annual payments of $10,000 from the federal government helped purchase IT equipment and helped fund aides who serviced that equipment.
Politico also finds that the Clinton Foundation’s chief operating officer, Laura Graham, was on the government payroll as well.
An analysis of the records provided by GSA, combined with Clinton Foundation tax returns, found that at least 13 of the 22 staffers who have been paid by GSA to work for Clinton’s personal office also worked for the Clinton Foundation.
Former presidents are provided $96,600 per year by the US government for staffing expenses under Former President’s Act.
The money is spent at the discretion of the ex-president.
