Clinton Foundation Donations Take $36 Million Plunge This Year
 [Breitbart] Donors have left the Clinton Foundation in the dust one year after Hillary Clinton lost the 2016 presidential election to President Donald Trump, according to the organization’s latest federal tax filings.The filings, obtained by the New York Post on Saturday, showed that contributions to the foundation took a $36 million nosedive over the past year‐reported contributions fell from $62,912,331 in 2016 to $26,566,825 in 2017. The $36 million drop in donations comes as House Republicans plan to hold hearings in December on the results of a Justice Department probe into the Clinton Foundation‐one month before Democrats assume control of the House. Donations to the foundation have tanked over the past few years as the organization had tried to fend off allegations that Hillary Clinton used the foundation to engage in pay-to-play schemes with foreign governments. In 2015, donations plummeted by 37 percent amid allegations that Clinton, the former 2016 Democratic presidential nominee, used the charity to solicit millions of dollars in donations from foreign governments and corporations in exchange for giving these entities favorable treatment while she served as Secretary of State.
