[quote=Anonymous]Speaking of being called a Russian troll by what I can only assume is a staffer or a Russian troll, I looked a bit into the people involved. I came across a non-profit allegedly run by an immediate family member which I thought was fair because they receive government grants and it’s all public. I sort of don’t get it: a support reading non-profit (nice) that distributes up to 12,000 books per year (but many minor donations of board books in massive photo ops) and acts as a middleman in connecting children to volunteers to read (admirable, but many less expensive non-profits already do that), relies on volunteers (in a city where that’s plentiful and high schoolers and students have a huge number of hours of service they have to complete so no great recruiting effort is needed) and yet has a budget of $900k of which almost $700k are salaries and wages (what are these other undisclosed wages?), about $100k in office expenses for basically 1-3 people and a NEGATIVE fundraising flow of between 25-250k per year. What am I missing? 
Somebody really needs to unpack all the various $ flows in the DC local politics. It could be a fun read or at least a head scratcher.[/quote]
