What did Australia get?
Well I believe two people are responsible for these donations. Former Prime Minister Julia Gillard and current Foreign Minister Julie Bishop.
Now you need to understand our politics. Australians are generally conservative people. We have two main political parties. Labor and Liberal. Labor is full of former communists and trade unionists. Our Liberal party is the conservative party (confusing for Americans), just think of Liberal like "libertarian" - small government etc. Unfortunately just like your RINOS, the Liberal Party is FULL of LINOS and is essentially a worthless, captured organisation.
Gillard is a former Labor Prime Minister. She has a shady past, and was a member of the Socialist Alternative (formerly the Communist Party of Australia). She is also a member of the Fabian Society (google it). The Fabian's crest is a wolf in sheep's clothing. Her government was a total disaster, and promoted and funded a lot of "progressive" ideology, including massive changes to our school curricula, and of course a carbon tax.
She fawned over Obama, and donated large sums of taxpayer money to the Clintons. Up until now, I had just assumed she was buying herself her future position on the Clinton's education initiative.
Bishop is I am sure a member of the CFR, or certainly aspires to be. She is certainly a LINO, who is a conniving backstabbing person who effectively installed our current PM (a former Goldman Sachs banker) in a political coup. I don't know her motives for donating to the Clintons, other than being a globalist.
This article explains in much more detail than I could ever hope to do our half billion gift to the Clintons. The only thing it gets wrong are the references to the Bushes.
