The Clinton Foundation just made some corrections to their tax returns. Four years worth, in fact. Why would such a thing be necessary?
The Hill reports:
Clinton Foundation files four years of amended tax returns
Bill and Hillary Clintons’s charitable foundation has amended its tax returns for four years, stretching back to 2010, to more accurately reflect grants it received from foreign governments and money received for speeches given by the Clintons.
The Clinton Foundation said in a statement that it found the errors while undergoing a voluntary review, and made the decision to file the amended returns even though it was under no legal obligation to do so.
The group said the changes did not affect the bottom line numbers on the returns, and that it owes no taxes as a result of the changes.
“Our actions today reflect a deep organization-wide commitment to making sure the public understands our work and our supporters understand how their resources are used,” Donna E. Shalala, the president of the foundation, wrote in a letter to donors and supporters.
The foundation has amended its returns for 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, saying it “inadvertently” rolled donations from foreign governments into a general category that included all grant money.
“There is nothing to suggest that the Foundation intended to conceal the receipt of government grants, which we report on our website,” Shalala wrote.
Uh huh.
Nothing suspicious going on there.
