Early last week, Planned Parenthood endorsed Hillary Clinton. It’s the first time the organization has backed a candidate in the primary.
Just days later, Clinton called for more federal funding for Planned Parenthood.
“I am not only against defunding Planned Parenthood, but I would like to see Planned Parenthood even get more funding,” the leading Democratic candidate proclaimed.
This is reminiscent of Clinton’s State Department deals. Like the time donations from the chairman of Uranium One’s foundation to the Clinton Foundation were followed by then-Secretary of State Clinton approving the company’s Russian nuclear energy project. Or when donations to the Clinton Foundation from foreign governments were followed by increasing lobbying at Clinton’s State Department. The Clinton Foundation also “collected donations from companies she promoted as Secretary of State.”
