It's easy to verify that they received TARP money and donated to Democratic PACs because both of those things are public information and completely legal to do. What Guccifer 2.0 claims goes far beyond that - that there's an explicit kickback donation scheme that funnels a percentage of TARP funds back to the lawmakers who authorized it. Proving that would require proving that the spreadsheet was actually created by a Clinton Foundation staffer and not fabricated by the hacker. That's very difficult to do, much more difficult than simply verifying the donation amounts. Edit: With recent information that this appears to be recycled info from the DCCC hack rather than from the Clinton Foundation, any credibility Guccifer 2.0 may have had should go out the window. The blog post is flat-out lying about the source of the data and contents.
