No specific mention of corruption, just an internal memo from Chelsea Clinton (I'm sure if you crane your neck to the left you'll see her statue) about how crummy of a job they did.
No specifics here (it's not really my job to prove there is fire, just that there is enough smoke), but here's the right-wing source wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrup...iti_Fund_funds
General piece about Clinton in Haiti, mostly a desperate attempt at edifying you. https://www.jacobinmag.com/2016/05/h...uake-martelly/
And another about the Foundation generally: https://www.jacobinmag.com/2016/08/h...ion-president/
None of these sources lay out the case explicitly for corruption or crimes. My belief that crimes are committed is because I do not think organizations like this are ever not criminal and is based on my general observations of the Clintons, who are quite obviously sociopathic.
I could be wrong about this stuff. But being jumped on as if I'm coming from some right-wing position reflects more on you guys than it does me. There's no hope for true believer Loki, but I'm genuinely disappointed in Matty Lice.
lol what are these links supposed to show? the first one basically points the finger at the state department and the clinton foundation for what amounts to leading an inefficient recovery effort in the wake of the haitian earthquake.
the second one projects a lot of blame on hillary for what seems to be pretty routine/standard US foreign policy (however misguided and ineffective) of backing a preferred haitian presidential candidate who is friendly to foreign enterprise, and makes some questionable judgments about the ripple effect onto the 2012 american presidential election from the recent election in haiti and attributes that as a motive for some kind of PR campaign. none of which is even remotely illegal, and again, mind-numbingly standard US foreign policy.
your third link references an IRS investigation into the foundation, but you were apparently shocked when we told you already that it uncovered nothing criminal. the article then goes on to point out that, SHOCKER, many of the clinton foundation donors are democrats and not right wingers, and that any donations made to the clinton foundation by foreign governments were made when neither hillary nor bill were public officials. spoiler alert, saudi arabia has been our ally for a long time and they dont need to give money to the clinton foundation to benefit from US foreign policy.
when multinational corporations take part in a disaster recovery effort in a 3rd world country, yes, they are usually positioned to profit from it. such is the way of capitalism and american foreign intervention- it didn't start with hillary and it doesn't end with her either. providing these links as some kind of basis for your comments that she "should be in jail" and that the clinton foundation is likely engaged in criminal activity (when you didn't even know that the investigation mentioned in one of the links turned up nothing) is a shameful display of posting and critical analysis.
meanwhile the trump organization literally admitted to breaking laws about self-dealing in its IRS disclosures wherein donald trump used hundreds of thousands of dollars of charity funds to settle personal lawsuits against him/his businesses and was forced by a court judgment to pay it back and shut down the organization. oh, they also stole money from a golf fundraising event for children's cancer treatment in order to settle yet another lawsuit against one of trump's businesses from a dude who hit a hole in one at that event and was scammed out of his prize for it.

^take note- next time you allege criminality and provide links to support those claims in an air of triumph and defiance, make sure they actually demonstrate that laws were in fact broken. otherwise you just look dumb.
