No More Pay to Play? Australia Halts All Clinton Foundation Funds
Sputnik News ^ | 11/24/16

Posted on 11/23/2016 4:08:25 PM PST by markomalley

Following Hillary Clinton’s US presidential election defeat, it has been announced that Australia has cut all official ties with the Clinton Foundation.

On Tuesday, Foreign Minister Julie Bishop announced to the joint party room that agreements with the Foundation previously set up by the Rudd-Gillard government had not been renewed.

“[Former Prime Minister Julia] Gillard also donated $300 million of our money to the Clinton-affiliated Global Partnership for Education,” Australian newspaper the Herald Sun wrote in an October article titled, “Why have we donated to Clinton’s foundation?”

The Foundation, set up by the former first family of the United States, has received large amounts in donations from foreign governments, leading many to question whether it was part of a pay-to-play scheme during the former first lady’s tenure as US Secretary of State.

The handwriting is on the wall. The poor fools who donated to this phony initiative have mud on their faces and are quietly slinking away.

Maybe these other nations could take Hillary to International Court or the UN. The Politicians were all in favor of allowing such lawsuits.

Oh, please. It is SO BLATANTLY OBVIOUS. If you have to "question" if it was pay-to-play and selling of the US SOS office, you have a room temperature IQ.

She wasn’t a mark. It wasn’t her money. It was the people of Australia that got robbed. I’ll just leave it at that.

“Why have we donated to Clinton’s foundation?”

And so begins the ire of “donors” expecting results for their $millions, and not seeing any refunds forthcoming.

Popcorn?
