Clinton Email Exposes Liberal Non-Profit’s Partisan Campaign WorkTax-exempt non-profit foundations are “absolutely prohibited from directly or indirectly participating in” partisan campaigns, but that didn’t prevent Center for American Progress President Neera Tanden from helping President Obama and his Democratic allies in the 2010 election.
Tanden – who was CAP’s chief executive officer at the time – was responding to a Sept. 7, 2010, email from then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton asking “do you and CAP have any ideas as to how to change the dynamic before it’s too late? Losing the House would be a disaster in every way.”
John Podesta, Clinton’s 2016 national campaign manager and White House chief of staff under President Clinton, was the founding president of CAP and was there at the time of the Clinton-Neera email exchange about how to rescue Democratic campaigns from electoral disaster five years ago.
Clinton hit the send button at 7:06 a.m. that day. Tanden responded at length at 11:15 p.m. that night, according to copies of the exchange recently made public by the State Department. Clinton and Tanden go way back, with the latter serving in the former’s 2008 presidential bid.
