It's hard to disagree too strongly with a characterization like Russian Shill when you describe a donation to the Clinton Foundation[0] as 'her husband's "gift"'. Perhaps you'd prefer intentionally deceptive?

Your linked source there says Qatar literally pledged the money for Bill’s 65th birthday and wanted to deliver the check in person. I think the “husband’s gift” description is pretty accurate.
