Non-profits, except if you work for them at the highest levels. Then you may profit greatly.

She detailed the issues in a complaint to the Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence, the clearinghouse for all state and federal domestic violence funds, that has recently come under fire after it was revealed that its longtime chief executive officer, Tiffany Carr, was paid more than $7.5 million over three years.

“I saw so much stuff that just wasn’t appropriate,” LeBel said. “It was physically making me sick.”

Her experience lines up with dozens of former domestic violence staffers who submitted hundreds of complaints to the coalition. Those complaints were obtained by the Times/Herald, and they showed a pattern of missing oversight and a lack of funding for employees and programs meant to serve domestic violence survivors and their children statewide.

“If Bernie Sanders is atop the ticket, it’s going to make it tougher for all of us to win in Florida,” said Fernandez, who has endorsed Sanders’ rival Joe Biden. “No one really sees Sanders winning Florida and I don’t think his campaign does either.”

Will you, now? where in the Constitution are those the powers granted to the executive branch? go ahead, take your time, I'll wait.

And they call Trump authoritarian.

I don't like Obama, but I'm also somewhat honest. Libya and Syria were not things he wanted to get involved in. Those were Hillary Clinton's wars.

Though Carpenter is right about why humanitarians focus so much on intentions. The majority of their outcomes are pretty crappy.

The truck of peace strikes again.

A man intentionally drove a car into a crowd at a Carnival parade in a small town in central Germany, injuring around 30 people including children, officials said Monday.

Libya and Syria were not things he wanted to get involved in. Those were Hillary Clinton's wars.

I'm seem to remember Teh Won was POTUS, and Hill was SoS. He could have told her - and the Euroweenies - to pound sand. If she objected, he could have graciously accepted her resignation.

But he didn't, Gaddafi died, and Libya is a mess complete with slave markets, and Teh Won painted a red line in sand and the little tin horn ophthalmologist Assad dared him to do something. And he needs to take full ownership of those wars. As well as permitting ISIS time and space to get going.

As another president remarked some time ago, the buck stops here.

Faster, please.

As I said in the other thread I'm a bit anal retentive about accurately placing blame, IRA. Those were Hillary's wars. I will agree that Obama gave ISIS space to grow and prosper. That wasn't a Hillary thing.

Outside the USA? $2.50.

In the USA? $10,000.00 each but don't worry, as long as you have health insurance you're not going to pay that much for it ;)
