OOPS: Clinton Foundation Admits It Took $1 Million From Qatar And Forgot To Tell The Government

Among the thousands of emails hacked from Hillarious Clinton’s presidential campaign chairman John Podesta and published by Wikileaks, one stated that officials from the government of Qatar gave the Clinton Foundation $1 million to celebrate Bill Clinton’s 65^th birthday, funds which the foundation did not report to the State Department.

That would seemingly violate an ethics agreement Hillarious Clinton signed when she became Secretary of State in 2009, in which she promised the foundation would notify the State Department's ethics official if a new foreign government wanted to donate or "increase materially" its contributions. 

Qatari officials pledged the money in 2011; in April 2012 Amitabh Desai, the Clinton Foundation's foreign policy director, sent an email acknowledging the Qataris wanted to meet Bill Clinton “for five minutes” in New York City.

Clinton Foundation spokesman Brian Cookstra told Reuters that the $1 million gift was not a "material increase" in Qatar’s contributions. But Qatar had given between $1 million and $5 million to the Clinton Foundation in total, meaning the $1 million gift represented between a 20% to 100% increase.

The State Department told Reuters it had no record of the Qatar donation.

In 2016, the Foundation admitted that the Clinton Health Access Initiative had not published a list of its donors since 2010, although Hillarious Clinton had promised she would offer an annual list.

As Reuters noted, Clinton Foundation officials acknowledged they sometimes evaded the agreement with the Obama administration, but blamed oversights. At least eight other countries in addition to Qatar gave new or increased funding to the foundation, most often for the Clinton Health Access Initiative.

OH, SNAP !

 

But will this be like all the other times she signed Docs stating she was aware of her duties & responsibilities,

 

but conveniently forgot so -- she'll get yet another pass for being a mentally deficient, conveniently forgetful liberal hack...?

 

FOR CRIPES SAKES,  LOCK  HER  UP ALREADY .

But what did Qatar and those other 8 countries actually get in exchange for their "donations?"  And did Bill get "speaking fees" personally from any of them around the same time as the "donations?"

 

The Klintons were (and likely still are) such blatant crooks and recidivist traitors that Comey should be indicted as a co-conspirator in many of their felonies for his failures to fairly enforce the law during Obummers reign of stupidity.  It is important that DoJ does this to the whole mob of them lest law enforcement devolve once again to the vigilance of the people.  That is messy and never ends well.  But sometimes, usually in other countries, it does eliminate some of the worst of the swamp's monsters.
