Bill Clinton has put together the Clinton Global Initiative it is money being raised
for very very good causes I don't know the details of all the work that they do for it
but maybe I'm na�ve but I trust them to be doing great work throughout the country
and throughout the world OK now after Hilary Clinton stepped down as head of our State
Department she also joined the Clinton Global Initiative so they're a part of it now as
well now while she secretary of state the intuitive had stopped taking money from foreign
countries makes sense here's Hilary Clinton the wife of Bill Clinton who's secretary of
state some foreign countries might want to influence her by perhaps giving money to the
Clinton charity right now apparently that has been lifted and for quite some time they
have been taking money again since Hilary Clinton stepped down the from state department
and the Wall Street journal has an article about that so here are some of the recent
donor the Clinton Initiative United Arab Emirates Saudi Arabia Oman Australia Germany not just
Canada but the Canadian government agency promoting the Keystone XL pipeline gee I wonder
why they'd want to give to Hilary Clinton who might be the next president of the united
states interesting well in fact let's go to that Wall Street Journal explains one of the
2014 donations comes from a Canadian agency promoting the proposed Keystone pipeline which
is favored by Republicans and under review by the Obama administration the foreign affairs
trade and development agency of Canada a first-time donor gave between $250,000 and $500,000 the
donations are given in ranges but we know through another public appearance that the
number is $480,000 they've never given to the Clinton Foundation before she might be
the next president of the united states they just happen to write a $480,000 for the first
time just in case she might be a decision making power over keystone xl pipeline now
anybody think this might be at the very least the appearance of corruption now I don't know
what Hilary Clintons motives are and look she's not collecting money for herself she's
collecting money for her charity I understand that right and maybe she's pure as the driven
snow and he's not going to be influenced by any of this but does it at least give the
appearance of corruption obviously and are the donors giving the money so that they can
have favor with her of course of course here I'll give you more the United Arab Emirates
a first-time donor gave between $1 million and $5 million in 2014 a previous donor the
kingdom of Saudi Arabia has given between $10 million and $25 million since the foundation
was created in 1999 part of that came in 2014 although the database doesn't specify how
much now if Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates and were that interested in the human
rights and welfare and healthcare etc all the different things that the Clinton Global
Foundation is pushing they could of showed it in other ways if I'm Hilary Clinton I go
to Saudi Arabia hey you know what keep your $25 million let women drive and we'll call
it a deal you think they about the charity you think they care about the causes that
the Clinton Intuitive is pushing no they care about influencing the next leader of the united
states of America it's the most obvious thing in the world yet the Clintons keep taking
that money they are trying to build a $250 million endowment again this is not a slight
on the foundation I'm sure it does great work but you can't do this you know they're trying
to influence you that's obvious and you know that at it looks like it is corruption even
if it's for charity let alone what it actually is when you really you're going to take a
you're going to take a $10 to $25 million check from somebody and you're not going to
be influenced by them at all when they come calling they're not going to be able to get
you to return that favor even if you don't believe that Hilary Clinton has bad motives
you think she's the most pure person in the world you're not at least swayed by the fact
that they did you this enormous favor any human being would be so at a bare minimum
this looks terrible but maybe it's because our politicians are so used to legalized bribery
that they're like so what now we're taking you know legal bribes for charity from foreign
governments who cares I mean we take money from corporations they're owned sometimes
by American shareholders and often times by non-American shareholders by foreign shareholders
who cares we take the money under any and all circumstances we're American politicians
I guess they've gotten used it but the reality is this is how our country and our system
gets bought
