Harry and Meghan step down from Royal duties so they can take incomes from their charity

Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, announced that they will be stepping back from their roles as senior members of the British royal family. Meghan expressed that they wished to gain financial independence from the crown. The Sussex Royal website remains vague about where they'll receive their future income. Meghan explained that due to their royal positions, they were prohibited from making money from their charity, Sussex Royal, but by stepping down it will allow them to take incomes from the charity and other ventures.
There you have it folks, she wants to keep up the Obama's and Clintons of a charity.

Chelsea was getting upwards of a million per year in total compensation for her "efforts" on that charity.

Heck, it reminds me of that old joke about the War on Poverty that "There's a lot of money in poverty."

Now that they've stepped down, they are no longer restricted to only spending the money of the charity's cause and operational costs...they can pay themselves what ever they feel they're worth.

Oh, turns out Meghan signed a deal with Disney the very day they stepped down. It's all about the benjamins.

So Trump operated a fake university, stiffed his contractors, and ran a fake charity which he used to buy a life sized portrait of himself and a fucking Tim Tebow helmet...

Colin Kapernick had much better numbers than Tebow and even has sweet endorsement deal with Nike....

OH...BTW...How's that Nike (NKE) short going for you dummies?

Hillary said they were "dead broke" on leaving the White House, but that was because Bill lied under oath to a federal judge and had legal fees.

Fast forward a few years and the Clintons are worth 200 million.

Heck, for a million a year in total compensation, I'll run the Clinton Foundation because that is slightly better than my compensation from this fine forum for my superb contributions.

So a judge shut down the Trump Foundation for corruption and for being used to benefit TRUMP and ordered two million in damages, no future work with foundations and three of his kids had to take compulsory training so they wouldn't break the law again.

Apparently Trump's kids had to go to class on Don’t Lie, Cheat & Steal. Unfortunately there is not a class long enough to teach them basic morals.

Wake up, Tool, and watch some actual news for a change. Your handlers certainly aren't going to tell you Trump is a fraud.
You need the legal system to tell you that:

"A New York judge has ruled that President Trump must pay $2 million in damages to settle claims that the Trump Foundation misused funds. The money will go to a group of charities, and the foundation is in the process of dissolving.

The case is tied to a televised fundraiser for veterans held by Trump in Iowa when he was running for president in January 2016. Trump had said the funds raised would be distributed to charities. But according to court documents, the Trump Foundation improperly used $2.82 million it received from that fundraiser.

According to the judgment, that money "was used for Mr. Trump's political campaign and disbursed by Mr. Trump's campaign staff, rather than by the Foundation," which is unlawful. However, Justice Saliann Scarpulla says the funds did eventually reach charity organizations supporting veterans.

"The Trump Foundation has shut down, funds that were illegally misused are being restored, the president will be subject to ongoing supervision by my office, and the Trump children had to undergo compulsory training to ensure this type of illegal activity never takes place again," New York Attorney General Letitia James, whose office filed the case, said in a statement.

So what part of what elklindo posted is "fake news" dummy?

NPR is very, very biased toward the Left Wing, so anything NPR states would need to be looked at closely.

As to what Clown posts, my staffers have determined that his accuracy rate stands at 1.89 percent.

Every news source that johnforbes consumes is very, very biased toward the Right Wing. That's why he can never produce any evidence for the crap he shovels onto this forum.

As to what johnforbes posts, I have personally determined his accuracy rate doesn't even come close to mine. And he is incapable of ever producing any evidence to convince anyone otherwise.

The whole thing, the judge didn't find Trump personally did anything wrong. :D

But elklindo didn't claim the judge said Trump personally did anything wrong, did he?

elklindo's post was accurate, so "the whole thing" wasn't fake news.

In other words, you simply made up your "fake news" bullshit, as always.

My diligent staffers have spent the afternoon checking Clown's accuracy rate.

Official, they found that Clown is arguably correct once every 4 years.

Sadly, this is not the year...

At least johnny recognizes that I'm right every time I vote for President of the United States, which means HE's not right when he votes.

Harry was caught on video asking the CEO of Disney to give Meghan a job doing voice overs. The look on the CEO's face and his wife's who attending a Hollywood function at the time are priceless.

Can someone please explain to this forum why anyone gives a flying fuck about what Meghan and Harry are doing?

What kind of dimwit spends his time contemplating this sort of stupidity?

RealTool must be one of those low IQ "Enquiring Minds" the grocery store gossip rags are always talking about.

Clown that's what this thread is about, why have you posted on it 5 times if you don't give a fuck about defending them?

Tool, if you hadn't told a flat out lie about elklindo, and then continued to lie when I nose rubbed in your stupidity, I wouldn't have bothered posting here, would I.

Forgive me for bringing some badly needed intelligence to your idiotic gossip thread, Tool. I know how thinking hurts your pinhead.

The Obamas were worth less than 1 m on attaining the White House, and just recently bought a mansion on Martha's Vineyard for 16 million.

Trump is the ONLY president to lose money from the job.

How would you know that Johnnie? Have you seen his tax returns?

No president needs to reveal his tax returns.

And, as explained to Elkin countless times, what you want to see to know how a politician thinks (and votes with his money) are his financial disclosures.

Trump's financial disclosures are fascinating, as were Obama's and Mitt's and Liz Warren's.

Liz had 8 m in stocks fairly recently, and now it is 12 m. Either her, or her hubby, make coldly rational investors, but of course her political rhetoric is sheer baloney.

Trump is hiding his tax returns for the same reason he's refusing to allow Bolton to testify...because he has something to hide. If Trump's tax returns showed that he made alot of fucking money, then most surely would have released them by now. However he must have some Russian mob money or some monster losses that he doesn't want people to see.

Given Trump's multiple bankruptcies and business failures....I hardly think anybody would care to know what is in his portfolio. So Johnnie....do you think this guy is the Oracle of New York or something?

Elkin, please forgive me for making a rare serious remark.

If your goal is to attack Trump and other Repubs, the way to do that is NOT by asking for tax returns.

You don't look at financial disclosures for advice. I'm not a real estate investor per se anyhow, and I wouldn't do what Trump does with investing anyhow.

They exist to expose conflicts of interest (real or potential), and to indicate whether a certain holding might dictate a course of political action.

You look at a disclosure for how a person thinks, such as a person who holds precious metals, or mining stocks, or master limited partnerships, or growth stocks, or value stocks, and there are clues there as to personality and outlook.

Sure, a tax return can reveal a hypocrite like Clinton deducting his used underwear (he really did do that), or Kerry parking his yacht in a more favorable tax location.

But, for political attacks such as the ones Elkin is making, he really should be looking at disclosures -- not tax returns.
