Saudi Arabia Just Gave Ivanka Trump $100,000,000 For Her "Charity" Today

Are Republicans here outraged? Trump said many times Clinton should return all money received by the Saudis and she wasn't even working in the White House! Clinton only received $10 million from the Saudis.

Ivanka Trump works in the White House as assistant to the president with an office in the West Wing, and her husband is Trump's senior advisor, both are subject to federal ethics rules & regulations.

Terrorist Muslims in the middle East just gave the assistant to the president $100,000,000, are you ok with that?

Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have pledged $100 million to the World Bank?s Women Entrepreneurs Fund

President Donald Trump was extremely critical of Saudi Arabia?s contributions to the Clinton Foundation while campaigning against Hillary Clinton, going so far as to call for Clinton to return all the money given to the foundation, both in speeches on the campaign trail and during the October presidential debate.

Saudi Arabia, UAE pledge $100 million to ethically questionable fund proposed by Ivanka Trump

Donald Trump criticized similar donations to the Clinton Foundation when he was a candidate.

Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have pledged $100 million to the World Bank?s Women Entrepreneurs Fund, an initiative proposed by first daughter and senior White House adviser Ivanka Trump. The fund, which was first announced in April, has already raised serious legal and ethical questions about how a White House adviser can both shape foreign policy and actively solicit donations from foreign countries for the fund.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the initiative would provide technical assistance and investments for projects that support the economic empowerment of women around the globe. Ivanka Trump does not control the money, though she first pitched the idea to World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim and has discussed the idea with leaders such as German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

On Sunday, World Bank Group President Jim Yong Kim praised ?Ivanka?s leadership? in spearheading the fund, and called it ?a stunning achievement.?
