Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) Closing Shop (1 Viewer)

I haven't commented about your posts in the past few months, David. But, you're not helping your business one bit when it comes to your recent posts. I'd think you're aware of that but maybe you aren't until someone mentions it to you. HTH

All that great work they were doing with Doug Band too.  Somewhat shocked that this isn't  a story worthy of the "real" news site as only the "fake" news ones seem to be covering it.

At some point you should probably look around and wonder if it's at least possible, albeit improbable, there's a reason all the 'real' news sites aren't covering the news you seem to be reading beyond mere conspiracy cover ups.

The Clinton Global Initiative is staying in business?  My link from the Dept of Labor seems to suggest otherwise.  

Looks like they are keeping their donate page up despite shutting down their operation:  https://bbis.clintonfoundation.org/2016-contribute/donate_now

 
This is weird though.   If Hillary won, it would make sense to shut down the foundation.  Allegedly they had planned this prior to the election, but did not announce it until after.  But now the anointed one lost, why shut it down?  Seems like charity work would be an ideal way to spend time.  The optics of how it played out though support the notion that the foundation was built on the Clinton's selling influence.  Without Hillary's being a likely future president, there is not much to sell.  

 
Trump shutting his down makes sense since it was a total scam from the start, but I thought the CGI was saving millions of lives in Africa? 

 
I hope it doesn't shut down. Seems to me it is doing good work. 

But no doubt some people donated to it because the Clintons were influential. That's an unfortunate fact of life.

Why do libs threaten their support of this site because of political disagreement?

I extended my membership over the past few months.  

 
So the CGI, an arm of the Clinton Foundation, is shutting down as planned but the Foundation continues on. Is this the takeaway here?

Yep, Foundation is active. As an fyi to any CGI was taken over by the Foundation in 2013, it has been inactive as a separate entity since 2013.

If there are people that can't respect others views just because they don't align with theirs and would leave due to it I think most owners would be fine losing people like that.

Especially here. This message board was built on mutual respect, and the ability to have a rational conversation on the internet. Be excellent to one another. I don't agree with everyone, but I respect their right to disagree with me.

Do you consider Dodds' recent posting history regarding the Clinton's to be rational?  This isn't about disagreement or party, it's completely losing his grip on reality.

Conspiracy theories are not a different political viewpoint. 

Believing a pizza shop is a front for a pedophile ring is not Republican vs. Democrat, it's pure bull#### that resulted in someone going to that pizza shop with a gun. Anyone who promotes that kind of "belief" isn't entitled to a rational discussion of political viewpoints, they deserve to be mocked. 

I find myself with less tolerance for stupidity these days. If you believe in wacko conspiracy theories, then I have no problem telling to kindly go #### yourself.

Not sure how that's your response but based on your tone you probably fall under the type most owners would be ok with leaving. 

There are plenty of BS conspiracy threads from the opposite Dodds allows and doesn't react childishly too like some are doing in here. Sorry people like that won't be missed. 

 
Let's please stick to the topic of the thread. Otherwise, this discussion will get whacked.

You are not the owner/proprietor of this business. Owners should, imo, be impartial to sex, drugs, religion, and politics. If I talk about any of those in my profession, people would have a #### fit if it didn't follow their beliefs of any of those topics. Talk rationally as a business owner otherwise lose business.

I hear you, my profession as well. A chat room isn't the same thing and he is entitled to his views just as much as those that think Trump is a Russian asset.

All true but I am also entitled to not support a business that supports "off the wall" theories. And, in doing so, I should not read bad things about my choice either... which I have up above. I follow this same ideal with other businesses, not just this one.

How long do you threaten to leave but not actually leave?

You must have me mistaken for someone else. I believe my membership goes through next year, so one more year. Due to life and other things, I don't think I'll be playing fantasy football after this year. That choice has nothing to do with politics, btw.

So basically you sucked at fantasy football this year.

 
This is just the beginning.  I can't wait to hear the excuses people make for the Clintons when they decide to retire from giving paid speeches.
