According to reports, the failed Democratic nominee's US-based charity received the cash to help plant trees in Africa at exactly the time she declared Angela Merkel her "favourite" politician.

A few weeks old, but interesting in light of yesterday's attack in Berlin.

Now that Clinton doesn't have as much influence to peddle, hopefully, the donations to her slush fund will dry up.

You donate $5,000,000 to me and you will be my favorite FReeper.

To plant trees in Africa.
Make it stop, somebody, please.

4 million pounds? Isn’t that the symbol for British Pounds?

Should have been Euros or Deutsche Marks (if they’re still around).

[DungeonMaster]

That’s the normal way of hacking an election.

STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES....Sows sticking together is “Right ON”.....

[ChildOfThe60s]

You don’t want them to have trees in Africa? LMAF

[Olog-hai]

It’s a British paper, so they converted it to pounds sterling.

The post Jan 20 FBI will be a new FBI!! Let us follow those funds.

[trebb]

I wonder how much Trump got from Russia......

[American in Israel]

I thought that accepting foreign donations to a campaign was a felony, or is that only true for Republicans?

[Mount Athos]

It drives me crazy that these donations from foreign governments aren’t a far bigger issue and scandal.

This is a red line that should never be crossed.
Why not mention the million dollars Qatar gave to the foundation on Clinton’s birthday?
What pro-terrorist foreign policy did that buy them?

Hopefully the people she took money from in return for future favors come calling to collect on their bad investments.

This is the definition of a conspiracy. Governments purposely colluding to expand power. These people need to be arrested and tried for treason.

Secy Hillary and Angela---BFF.

EXCERPT---- The German Federal Ministry for the Environment has denied that Merkel's govt donation to the Clinton Foundation was linked to Hillary's election.

The Ministry confirmed the transaction took place and insisted the money was to provide "financing under the International Climate Protection Initiative (ICI)".

The ministry also claimed the public funds served to "support forestry and landscape renaturation in East Africa". German taxpayers are also funding Clinton Foundation projects that involve the "restoration of forest ecosystems" in India, Kenya, El Salvador, Mexico, Vietnam, Uganda and Peru – according to reports.

===================================================

ADDENDUM: In 2011, Podesta’s leaked emails show that former President Bill Clinton had raised over $1 billion though the foundation to rebuild 100 villages in India, but only $53 million was spent on the project. (hat tip The Stream)

I had a Haitian man tell me that they loved the Clintons because they had spent a lot of money to rebuild Haiti. He could not understand that they had raised a huge amount of money and had only spent a fraction of what they could have and they kept the rest.

HAITI REALITY CHECK: A source close to Pres-elect Trump's transition team indicated plans to pressure its yet unnamed US ambassadors to suggest foreign governments probe its ­Clinton Foundation financial dealings. “Haiti and Colombia will be key diplomatic posts because of all the money ­involved,” said the source.

Recently leaked ­e-mails marked FOB “Friends of Bill”, indicate Clinton insiders may have been given priority from the State Department as it prepared to spend some $10 billion in aid after a 2010 devastating earthquake in Haiti. The State Dept denied any special treatment.

Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra (he facilitated the sale of US uranium deposits), pledged $100 million to the Clinton Foundation in 2005 and later benefited from the foundation’s philanthropic work in Columbia where Giustra acquired large parcels of land and set up an oil business, ­according to watchdog groups.
