The Clinton Global Initiative essentially wound down in 2017 because of the drop-off in donations. Gee, why did the donations drop off then? Did potential donors finally realize that they wouldn’t be getting any access to the White House because Hillary Clinton wasn’t going to get in?
But now, Bill Clinton is saying they are restarting the CGI again because the kind of “cooperation and coordination” it created is urgently needed with the pandemic and the Russian war on Ukraine, according to the Associated Press.
“It’s only just beginning,” Bill Clinton says about CGI, the AP reports.
“The COVID-19 pandemic has ripped the cover off of longstanding inequities and vulnerabilities across our global community,” Clinton said. “The existential threat of climate change grows every day. Democracy is under assault around the world, most glaringly in Ukraine where Russia has launched an unjustified and unprovoked invasion that has put millions of lives in grave danger.”
The CGI faced scrutiny during former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign for its significant international donations – which some said could create conflicts of interest.
Now with what’s happening in Ukraine, there’s a ton of money flying back and forth — including billions that governments and companies will be putting out there. That has to be ringing the dinner bell to folks like the Clintons, especially given their prior connections to Ukraine.
Interesting how these frauds are always culling donations for foreign countries that already get billions of taxpayer dollars and nothing for US citizens who lost their jobs, are living in poverty, veterans, homeless, or those that lost everything to weather events, fire, etc.
Big corporate dollars helping big government and the elite.
little man is who helps their neighbor.
In 2014 the Clinton foundation pledged $5 million in aid to build housing in Haiti following a massive earthquake. They only donated $100,000. However they stated their “extensive overhead” of $95 million to run the program was the reason for the shortfall.
I wish she’d run for the hills!
Dumocrats have No-one else !!!!
Then just pick someone from off a street corner. They would do better than her and a lot more honest.
