Hillary Clinton Slams Trump Over Qatar Jet Gift — Gets Buried in Avalanche of Hypocrisy
Clinton Accuses Trump of Quid Pro Quo While Her Own Foreign Dealings Resurface
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton attempted to reignite political flames this week by criticizing President Donald Trump for accepting a $400 million Boeing 747 jet gifted to the U.S. Department of Defense by the royal family of Qatar. But her remarks quickly backfired, with critics across the political spectrum pointing out her own entanglements in foreign money scandals—many of which remain unresolved to this day.
“No one gives someone a $400 million dollar jet for free without expecting anything in return. Be serious,” Clinton posted on X.
Trump, during his visit to Doha, Qatar, laughed off the criticism.
“I could be a stupid person and say, ‘No, we don’t want a free, very expensive airplane.’ But I thought it was a great gesture,” Trump told reporters.
The contrast in tone was striking: Trump appeared confident and transparent about the donation. Clinton, however, inadvertently reminded America of her own checkered past with foreign governments and opaque donations to the Clinton Foundation.
Flashback: Clinton’s Middle Eastern Cash Ties
Clinton’s sudden concern over foreign influence set off alarms across social media. During her tenure as Secretary of State, the Clinton Foundation accepted millions of dollars from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Kuwait—all while Clinton wielded enormous power over U.S. foreign policy.
- In 2011, Qatar gifted the Clinton Foundation $1 million for Bill Clinton’s birthday.
- Saudi Arabia donated at least $10 million, with several transfers occurring during Clinton’s time at the State Department.
- These donations were not publicly disclosed at the time, despite internal Obama administration agreements requiring transparency.
Her critics were quick to respond:
“What did Qatar want from you?” asked journalist Jerry Dunleavy.
“You’d know,” replied Rob Schmitt of Newsmax.
“Tell us more, Hillary,” quipped viral influencer @mazemoore, accompanied by a montage of Clinton scandals.
The Foundation That Operated Like a Foreign Broker
According to whistleblowers Lawrence Doyle and John Moynihan, the Clinton Foundation operated more like a foreign brokerage than a legitimate 501(c)(3) charity. In congressional testimony and investigative reports, they alleged:
- 60% of donations were used for “administrative fees”, far above industry norms.
- The foundation moved funds globally in patterns similar to international lobbying or influence-peddling schemes.
- It resembled Geneva’s global fund model—but without transparency, oversight, or legitimate humanitarian output.
Their findings called into question the entire structure of the foundation during Clinton’s tenure at the State Department and beyond.
Uranium One: The Deal That Won’t Die
No Clinton corruption timeline would be complete without revisiting Uranium One.
- In 2010, Clinton’s State Department signed off on the sale of 20% of America’s uranium production capacity to Russia.
- Around the same time, nine key investors in Uranium One donated more than $145 million to the Clinton Foundation.
- The FBI had evidence of bribery, kickbacks, and extortion tied to the deal—evidence that was reportedly suppressed.
Clinton denies wrongdoing, but the timing and financial patterns are impossible to ignore.
The Verdict: Clinton Has No Ground to Stand On
Clinton’s attempt to criticize Trump over a clearly disclosed, formal military gift to the U.S. government was met with scathing ridicule—not because the jet gift is beyond scrutiny, but because Clinton herself is the poster child for undisclosed foreign influence.
As calls to audit the Clinton Foundation trend once again, one truth becomes undeniable:
When Hillary Clinton speaks about foreign gifts and influence, America remembers exactly why it stopped listening.
Perhaps she should take the advice offered by one commentator:
“Just shoosh.”
