#FollowTheMoney thread. How much did @womensmarch make in 2017? How much did its co-chairs make? I'm working on an @esquire column on the controversy of the Women's March & just received its 2017 IRS filing. I share here the top 10 findings. link.medium.com/Lb12WSsIfS

4) "Where did the money go?" asks former @womensmarch DC chapter president @breathefree11 Mercy Morganfield. Follow her! She is a courageous voice in this controversy. For weeks, she has been pressing Women's March to reveal financials. She's a hero. TY Mercy. #Whistleblower

It’s important to note that this is just one source of income.

5) Re: salaries. It's impt to recognize at least 2/4 co-chairs @womensmarch Inc. likely had other income in 2017. Carmen Perez for example had income of $88,333 as president for @Gather4Justice in 2016. Gathering for Justice hasn't responded to several queries I have sent it.

6) Separately, Linda Sarsour was executive director of @MPower_Change. Hello, MPowerChange, could you please direct us to your 2017 990? Thank you.

Just to be clear: there are six board members for #WomensMarch. They were the only staff that received salaries. They voted on their own salaries?
