Wikileaks revealed that they recently donated in a very significant way to Hillary Clinton’s Presidential campaign. They are among forty-four donations from “the Leahy event.” Other contributors included the Podesta Group, Heather Podesta (Tony Podesta’s wife), Universal Music, Google, Time Warner Cable and the NFLPA.

It co-funded a study on how the philanthropic community of D.C. can affect the juvenile justice system.
