The Brian Lehrer Show | May 7, 2015

Peter Schweizer, a former fellow at the Hoover Institution, the founder and president of the Government Accountability Institute and the author of Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich (Harper, 2015), has already made headlines and caused changes with the fundraising details he uncovered at the Clinton Foundation. He discusses what he found when he dug into the Clinton's personal and foundation-related financial data.

If there's one bit of consensus on money in politics: it's that no one wants foreign money in our politics, says @peterschweizer.
