Former President Bill Clinton is criticizing author Peter Schweizer's book that investigates the Clinton Foundation, accusing it of being political propaganda. The book, published in 2015, examined the financial dealings of the foundation, raising questions about how the Clintons used it for personal gain. Schweizer maintains that his investigation was based on public financial disclosures and not politically motivated.
Bill and Hillary Clinton were once masters of the “dark arts” of politics – spinning history and enriching themselves while running a global charity that became famous as a grift machine. Their skill even had a name: “The Clinton Blur.” Though long out of office himself, former President Bill Clinton is at it again.exposed the financial shenanigans behind the Clinton Global Initiative.
What piqued GAI’s interest at the time, Schweizer has said, was the Clintons’ own financial disclosure forms that showed enormous sums of cash coming to their foundation from corrupt countries such as Russia, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine, all of which surged in 2009 after Hillary became secretary of state.
Clinton’s book never disputes the facts, Schweizer says. They never denied their foundation took in nearly $150 million from investors in Uranium One, for example. A Russian bank with interests in the deal paid Bill $500,000 for a single speech in Moscow the same month the deal was under official review.
