“…But it’s worth noting that Wyclef Jean has family ties to the group of gangsters and thugs that the Clinton-era CIA installed in office when it removed Haiti’s elected president, Jean-Betrand Aristide from office in the 1990s. Wyclef Jean has repeated the contemptible lie all over black radio that Aristide skipped the country with $900 million stolen from Haitians…If Wyclef will lie about that, we wonder what else he’d lie about, and why we should trust him with our money.”

According to the Haiti Information Project :

“Wyclef’s uncle is Raymond Joseph, the highest-ranking official abroad representing the U.S.-installed government in Haiti. He is the un-elected government’s representative in Washington. Wyclef’s uncle, who he has often praised, is responsible for fomenting outrageous lies about Aristide and…the Lavalas political party that has contributed to the current climate of witch-hunts, arbitrary arrests and murders in Haiti today.”

You haven’t refuted any point I made, and you leave me wondering what exactly you mean by this statement: “Yele’s tax records were found to be perfect by auditors, as of today.”

The time lapse you mention regarding phone companies isn’t any different than the AP quote I cited.

Money’s donated by text will be released to all non-profits by the phone companies without the wait, per their unanimous agreement (except (TMobile), as of a couple of days ago. Yele’s tax records were found to be perfect by auditors, as of today. Media attacks on Jean during a trying time such as this are worth little. He has a large audience – that doesn’t include you, obviously, and we get his focus. Yele’s still successfully raising funds for a reason. Try updating your article with current news.
