Planned Parenthood Received Millions of Dollars After Lobbying Clinton’s State Department
Washington Free Beacon ^ | July 30, 2015 | Bill McMorris

Planned Parenthood lobbied the Department of State many times during Hillary Clinton’s tenure there and received tens of millions of dollars from foreign policy agencies over the past few years, according to a new report.

As secretary of state, Clinton attacked the Mexico City Policy, which bans federal funding of abortion overseas. Her husband revoked the policy during his administration and President Obama lifted the ban upon taking office in 2009. The United States Agency for International Development (USAID), which is tied to the State Department, steered more than $100 million in funding to Planned Parenthood, its international affiliates, and the pro-abortion Population Council between 2010 and 2012, according to the Government Accountability Office—about 20 percent of the nearly $500 million pro-abortion organizations received from taxpayers during that time frame.

The taxpayer dollars that Planned Parenthood received dwarfed the $3.4 million that Planned Parenthood spent on lobbying during President Obama’s first term, according to a report from Women Speak Out PAC, a partner of the Susan B. Anthony List, and American Rising. Government records document more than 30 instances of Planned Parenthood lobbying federal agencies, including the State Department while Clinton was serving there.

It takes a village of aborted dead babies to buy a lamborghini, and only half a village with US State department grants.

So the Federal Govt gives them money to use to lobby the State Dept. for more money to use overseas. We need to defund the left. They have thousands on the payroll who’s sole purpose is to get more money from the Federal Govt. The Rats are a criminal enterprise.

The Clinton Foundation in it’s entire function is just a money laundering scheme. It takes dollars from American Taxpayers through disbursments to others thru our treasury to theirs, then back, nice and clean! Even the corporations and banks donate money available because of tax policy, banking regulation, import and export rules, changed by the influence of the Clinton Foundation.

"The Rats are a criminal enterprise."

So are 85% of the republicans. The 50 mile radius of Washington DC is populated with trough feeders for life due to corruption. How do we dismantle the 2000 thieves with job protection for every elected one?

Donations to the Clinton ‘foundation/vacation/slush fund are tax deductible ... so the scam works on so many levels.

Who do we need to fund PP anymore? Low-income women now have ObamaCare, which is mandated to cover abortions. PP has no “need” to fill anymore.

You may be more true in your assessments than you think. My guess is that as part of the Swiss investigation into FIFA bribery, they may be asking if the Clinton Foundation was being used for launder bribery money to and from FIFA officials at FIFA headquarters in Zurich--possibly through an offshore financial center bank located in one of the Caribbean island countries.
