The Wall Street Journal reported on Feb. 17 that the Clinton Foundation, which Hillary Clinton joined after leaving the State Department, had dropped its ban on accepting foreign donations. Such a decision could fuel perceptions that foreign governments donating to the Clinton Foundation maybe gain influence in a future Clinton administration.

The Post raised more questions last week after reporting how the foundation had accepted millions of dollars from seven foreign governments during Clinton’s four years leading the State Department. The Post reported how a $500,000 donation from the Algerian government had violated an ethics agreement between the foundation and Obama administration.

Reporters have pressed for answers about the donations, and on Monday, the State Department walked back an earlier suggestion that its lawyers had signed off on the foreign contributions during Clinton’s tenure. On Monday, Politico reported that “there are no indications any Clinton Foundation donations were ever sent to the State Department for approval.”
