Over at Fox News, the headline blares: “Clinton Global Initiative to lay off employees, shut down amid dwindling donations.” Let’s pause for a moment and contemplate why donations to the overarching Clinton Foundation would be dwindling. It’s almost as if it were really a vehicle for influence peddling that had outlived its purpose, rather than a noble dispensary of ‘watered-down’ AIDS drugs in Africa.

Setting aside the schadenfreude—surely CGI supported some legitimately charitable works—the truth is that shuttering CGI around this time was the plan all along. What was not the plan, however, was shuttering the initiative, a program of the Clinton Foundation that “convenes global leaders to create and implement innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges,” so the Clintons could spend more time photo-bombing the social media accounts of random New Yorkers.
