WikiLeaks: Clinton Charity Took Millions from Moroccan King in Exchange for Appearance
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wiki Leaks continues to release emails from the account of John Podesta,
the chair of Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. One set of emails
revealed Hillary Clinton secured a $12 million donation to the Clinton
Global Initiative in 2015 from the king of Morocco, on the condition
that she speak at an event in Marrakesh. Bill and Chelsea Clinton
ultimately spoke in Hillary Clinton's place. The donation came as
Clinton prepared to announce her candidacy. On Sunday, Clinton was asked
whether the donation amounted to a "pay-to-play" scheme.

Hillary Clinton: "I have nothing to say about Wiki Leaks other than I
think we should all be concerned about what the Russians are trying to
do to our election and using Wiki Leaks very blatantly to try to
influence the outcome of the election."
