As a reminder, It is illegal in the United States for foreign countries to try to influence the outcome of elections by funding candidates. That appears not to have stopped the Saudis, however.
Saudi Arabia always has sponsored both Republican and Democratic Party of America and in America current election also provide with full enthusiasm 20 percent of the cost of Hillary Clintons election even though some events in the country dont have a positive look to support the king of a woman (sic) for presidency, the report quoted Prince Mohammed as having said.
According to the US Federal Election commission, over the past two years Clinton has raised a little more than $211.8 million. 20% of this sum is $42.4 million.
The report was published (and then mysteriously deleted) on the eve of Prince Mohammed making an official visit to the United States. The Saudi Press Agency reported on Monday that the senior royal was due to fly to Washington where he will meet officials to discuss US-Saudi ties.
He will remain in the American capital until 16 June, when he will travel to New York for meetings with financial companies, the Saudi Gazette reported.
Prince Mohammed will discuss regional issues with American officials, and he will hold talks with the financial companies about his vision for diversifying Saudi Arabias economy away from oil dependency.
Links between Saudi Arabia and the Clinton family, including with Hillarys campaign, are well reported. In 2008, it was revealed that the Gulf kingdom had donated between $10m and $25m to the Clinton Foundation, a charity set up by Hillarys husband and former US President Bill Clinton.
Last year the Centre for Studies and Media Affairs at the Saudi Royal Court paid public relations firm the Podesta Group $200,000 for a month-long project to provide public relations services.
The Podesta Group was founded in 1988 by brothers John and Tony Podesta. John Podesta is the chair of Hillary Clintons campaign to become the next US president.

The report was later deleted and the news agency has not responded to requests for comment from Middle East Eye. However, the deletion took place too late, as the Washington-based Institute for Gulf Affairs managed to capture the report and has re-published the original Arabic Petra report, which quoted Prince Mohammed as having said Saudi Arabia had provided with full enthusiasm an undisclosed amount of money to Clinton.
Podesta needs to be under investigation...he's no shrinking violet.
THANKS TO PODESTA'S ENDLESS EMAILS we know
(a) Podesta has carpel-tunnel syndrome, (b) several govt pensions, (c) is cashing scads of govt checks, (d) is a fixer for the rich and powerful.
Podesta has been close to power for years, effortlessly getting numerous top level, high-powered govt jobs, and he even controls the media.
Podesta got rich trading on insider info, and is paid off for his powerful positions, (a) receiving valuable stocks in a Russian-connected energy company. (b) the Saudi Royal Court paid the Podesta Group $200,000 for a month-long project to provide public relations services. (verified to date).

Excellent talking points
Aren’t there laws against this sort of thing?
Where did you find that! Awesome!
One would think.
Which “Prince Mohammed”? The Saudi Royal family is huge (15K+) with about 2000 who really matter. You could probably fill a decent size conference center with “Prince Mohammeds”
There are two Prince Mohammeds who matter the most, and from whom a claim like this would really matter:
Muhammad bin Nayef (aka MbN) is the current Crown Prince and Heir apparent. He is first in line to be King when King Salman (now 80) dies. He matters, he has the current confidence of the Saudi establishment, and if he states something, it is effectively state policy.
The other important “Prince Mohammed” is “Mohammad bin Salman” (aka MbS) Defence Minister and prime rival to be the next King. He matters, he is believed to be the driving force for Saudi intervention in Yemen, and is noted for his arrogance and (unmerited) self confidence.
If it was any other “Prince Mohammed” it is a nobody who is posturing and bragging.
Foreign interference!
Let’s get the CIA, Senate, Clintons and “Real” News guys on this because they care so much about foreign interference in American elections (including that of illegal immigrants and the government of Mexico).
You don’t see this “news” on any liberal news programs, they’re too busy trying to torpedo Trumps pending swear in
Trump will be all over this in well within 24 hours if historical patterns hold.
Title says crown prince
Wonder if he has a Freeper name? :>)
A Fool And His Money Are Soon Parted
She took money from some pretty bad actors.
No wonder she’s holed up in some deep bunker someplace.
You can be sure that Huma Abedin is deeply involved with this shit. We are funding a big chunk of ISIS and ISIS all’y are very generous around the Clinton tip jar.
Still is - no rebates at "Clinton's Pay n' Play"
REALITY CHECK stupid Democrats did not secure their computers. Hacking revealed devious behavior by the DNC causing the ouster of Chairman Debbie. Besides there's no evidence Russian tampered with US voting machines. Nor is their evidence President-elect Trump had anything to do with hacking.
==============================================
The most honest course to preserve the integrity of our voting system:
Hillary's electors should just cast their votes for Trump and distance themselves from crooked Hillary and the dangerous people she's beholden to.
Forget electors dumping Trump.Trump is beholden to no one.
The electors should consider that Hillary owes payback to a lot of dangerous people who are looking to undermine US ntl security. Hillary's creditors could endanger the safety and security of all Americans.
Every elector pledged to Hillary should seriously consider her crooked pay-for-play schemes, .....Hillary, her husband, her daughter, her foundation, and campaign manager taking carloads money from the Saudis.
ISIS allies
THANKFULLY he didn’t give that money to Republicans, for then it would be plastered all over the news.
There must be no hateful requirements for them to follow this out dated law when we're clearly operating in a global political sphere where everyone in the world must be allowed to have a fair and balanced say in the internal affairs of such an in fluencial country as the USA.
