There has been much ado about nothing in the Social Networks about Hillary Clinton accepting campaign donations from the Private Prison Industry. With a little bit of research this turns out to be totally debunked. I will present my sources below as proof that Clinton has not received donations from this industry. Here are my sources:
Corrections Corporation of America gave 78% of donations to Republicans and 22% to Democrats: https://www.opensecrets.org/...
List of Recipients for Corrections Corporation of America: https://www.opensecrets.org/...
GEO Group Summary of donations: (0% to Democrats, 100% to Republicans): https://www.opensecrets.org/...
Recipients of GEO Group donations: They are all Republicans: https://www.opensecrets.org/...
Federal Election Commission: Summary for Hillary Clinton: http://www.fec.gov/...
Itemized Individual Contributions: http://www.fec.gov/...
You will notice above there is no indication whatever that Clinton is taking donations from the private prison industry. All this took was less than an hour to confirm. It is too bad other bloggers do not do Their homework. One should be more circumspect when making allegations out of whole cloth and being of no scruples.
I will leave it up to You the reader to decide whether or not Clinton is taking donations from Private Prisons. But from the available sources online that does not appear to be the case. It really is a case of lazy journalism if not a smear.
