Hillary Clinton decided to lecture President Trump about ethics and very quickly regretted it.
The twice-failed presidential candidate thought she spotted an opportunity to score political points.
And Hillary Clinton got utterly humiliated after this jaw-dropping scandal hypocrisy was exposed for everyone to see.
Hillary’s stunning hypocrisy about foreign gifts
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton took to social media to attack President Donald Trump’s potential acceptance of a luxury Boeing 747 jet from Qatar.
“No one gives someone a $400 million dollar jet for free without expecting anything in return,” Clinton wrote on X. “Be serious.”
What made Clinton’s holier-than-thou lecture so shocking was her complete amnesia about her own scandalous history with foreign gifts.
According to ABC News, the Trump administration is considering accepting a luxury Boeing 747, described by some as a “flying palace,” from Qatar. The aircraft would be transferred to the United States Air Force and modified to presidential specifications, with ownership eventually transferring to the Trump Presidential Library Foundation by January 1, 2029.
President Trump defended the arrangement, and insisted the plane would not be in his personal use after he left office, according to an NPR report.
“Trump said Monday that the plane isn’t a gift to him, but to the Department of Defense. He added that it will be decommissioned after his term for his presidential library, and that he will not use it after leaving office,” NPR reported.
On Truth Social, Trump stated it was a “GIFT, FREE OF CHARGE” that would save American taxpayers a fortune.
“Why should our military, and therefore our taxpayers, be forced to pay hundreds of millions of Dollars when they can get it for FREE from a country that wants to reward us for a job well done,” Trump wrote.
This completely transparent transaction would save taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars. But that didn’t stop Clinton from trying to manufacture yet another phony scandal.
Clinton Foundation’s foreign money scandal erupts all over again
Hillary’s attack on Trump instantly backfired when Americans remembered the Clinton Foundation’s shady history of accepting foreign cash during her time as Secretary of State – including from Qatar itself.
Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) delivered a brutal takedown that left Clinton supporters scrambling for cover.
“Cry me a river @HillaryClinton. Tell that to the mega-donors, including Qatar, who gave hundreds of millions of $ to the Clinton Foundation. Didn’t seem to bother you then,” Gosar fired back.

The hypocrisy was so blatant it left jaws on the floor.
In 2016, Reuters confirmed that the Clinton Foundation had accepted a $1 million gift from Qatar in 2011 to mark Bill Clinton’s 65th birthday – while Hillary was serving as America’s top diplomat.
The foundation failed to inform the State Department about the donation, despite an ethics agreement Clinton signed when becoming Secretary of State in 2009. That agreement explicitly required notification if foreign governments made new donations or “materially increased” existing support to avoid appearances that U.S. foreign policy could be influenced by donors.
A Clinton Foundation spokesman later claimed the donation did not amount to a “material increase” in Qatar’s support, though the foundation’s website listed Qatar’s government as having donated between $1-5 million cumulatively over the years.
Pattern of questionable foreign donations
Qatar was far from the only foreign government funneling money to the Clinton Foundation during Hillary’s time at the State Department. Saudi Arabia reportedly contributed a whopping $14.5 million, while Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman each contributed between $1 and $5 million.
The State Department stated in 2016 that it had no record of the foundation submitting the Qatar gift for review.
More troubling still, foundation officials admitted they did not always comply with provisions of the ethics agreement, attributing some oversights to “administrative errors.”
This pattern of accepting foreign government money while serving as America’s top diplomat raised serious ethical concerns that Clinton never adequately addressed.
The controversy became a significant issue during her failed 2016 presidential campaign.
The former Secretary of State’s attempt to attack President Trump on the Qatar jet gift has only served to remind Americans of her own questionable ethics when it comes to foreign influence.
By criticizing a transparent arrangement that would save American taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars, Clinton inadvertently drew attention to her family foundation’s far more secretive foreign donation practices.
