The Clinton Foundation has confirmed it accepted a $1 million gift from Qatar while Hillary Clinton was U.S. secretary of state without informing the State Department, even though she had promised to let the agency review new or significantly increased support from foreign governments.
Qatari officials pledged the money in 2011 to mark the 65th birthday of Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton's husband, and sought to meet the former U.S. president in person the following year to present him the check, according to an email from a foundation official to Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign chairman, John Podesta. The email, among thousands hacked from Podesta's account, was published last month by WikiLeaks.
Clinton signed an ethics agreement governing her family's globe-straddling foundation in order to become secretary of state in 2009. The agreement was designed to increase transparency to avoid appearances that U.S. foreign policy could be swayed by wealthy donors.

Arms sales to Saudi Arabia and Qatar almost triple in four years
Weapons imports by Saudi Arabia and Qatar have rocketed by more than 275 percent over the past four years, a new report found on Monday.
Between 2011 and 2015, Gulf states were the most significant market for sales by the United States, the world’s biggest arms exporter, the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) found.

Um.. You guys know we have had a military Base in Qatar since 1999 right? We had been an ally with them for years before Clinton became SoS. I am not sure what your angle is... Are you trying to Push Pay-to-Play or what?

And by the way, it isn't really called "pay to play" it's called BRIBERY and it's a felony when you take money in exchange for favors while working at the state department, and especially if you are secretary of state.

I'm sorry You danged Trumpet.. Again grasping at straws, just because We at the HRC™ Cabal Eastern Headquarters (27 more offices and 'We' will have more offices than The Gideons™ who We are happy to report, have agreed to allow us at ClintonCorp™ or "Church of The Open Door.llc.inc.ltd." for tax purposes, to carry one of our Mission Statements in EVERY Bible™ The Gideons™ drop off at EVERY hotel, 3 copies if the motel/hotel room rents by the hour (Funny picture of our illustrious leader's beard husband for 'Elite Donors ONLY', don't talk to him if you're a female. Bow if male. If you are summoned by either of our leaders, you will submit to a 'pat down search' conducted by our leader or her/his designee. This was in your employee handbook in which you signed a disclosure to allow this for any place, any time. This must be done for security reasons due to all the smoke reported ...
Anyways that was a guitar that Her Highness $old that was signed by Bob Dylan (see: Nobel Prize. BHO got the last one and this was in exchange for that.)
Ungrateful Dylan threatened to tell everyone because it was supposed to be $750,000.00 but Chelsea's husband thought he'd take another stab at a hedge fund and he was also at the end of this month's Goldman-Sucks allowance.
So get it straight!!!!
The money was for a guitar signed by Bob Dylan. Interviews were extra $$$$
Qatar stands to make trillions of dollars if they can ever get a natural gas pipeline to Europe.
That pipeline needs to go through Syria of all the places !!!

Won't be long until a Clinton Clan apologist will be along to Correct The Record and tell you that it was actually Trump that received Qatar's $1 million "gift".
Every single time Clinton has been caught doing something disgusting a story come out the very next day blaming Trump of the same thing.
