Chelsea Clinton breaks silence on claims she received $84million from USAID
2025-02-11
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Chelsea Clinton claims that 'misinformation' has been weaponized against her after claims that she was gifted $84million from the under fire United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

Clinton, 44, was charged with receiving $84million from USAID via the Clinton Foundation, which was founded by herself, father Bill and mother Hillary.

The former First Daughter responded on social media Monday, writing: 'Lies and conspiracies about my family and me are nothing new. Still, I am particularly troubled by the absurd claims that continue to pervade social media this week, fact checks be damned.'

'Facts: I’m proud of the Clinton Foundation work that has helped tens of millions of people worldwide. Our impact speaks for itself. I don’t take a cent from the Foundation. Never have. In fact, my family personally contributes meaningfully to our work each year,' she continued.

'Misinformation isn't just noise—it's a weapon. Efforts to undermine good work won't stop us, and we stand in solidarity with those who are committed to truth, public health, progress, and the endless potential of our future.'

Fact-checking website Snopes added that the money was not only not given to Chelsea Clinton but also not an accurate amount.

'A graph that social media users claimed showed Chelsea Clinton received $84 million from USAID is actually a reference to the Clinton Foundation,' they wrote.

'Further, government data from fiscal years 2008-24 showed that USAID had not given more than $7.5 million to that foundation. Finally, tax returns show Chelsea Clinton does not receive any compensation for her work at the foundation.'
