Is it true that the Clinton Foundation stole billions of dollars?

I've never heard this allegation before.

We're talking billions of dollars here. That ain't chump change.

4. Who organized the protest?

The coverage seems to consist of what one might deem the "usual suspects" such as Breitbart and American Stinker.

They all quote a gentleman from the "Committee Against Dictatorship in Haiti".

Interestingly, that "committee" seems to have no discernible history or existence apart from this particular story.

So, is a YouTube video which shows people engaging in a protest "credible"?

I suppose that depends on the purpose for which credibility is sought. Yes, I am certain that it would be credible for the physical fact of an assembly of some people making a ruckus of some kind. As to whether that assembly of people is motivated by accurate facts, or whether that assembly is motivated by some other purpose is, I suppose, not a line of inquiry to which the YouTube video would be particularly illuminating.

Like this so-called "committee", its spokesman "Dhoud Andre" has no internet existence apart from this story.

Do you find that odd?
