American Crossroads, a conservative political action committee founded by Karl Rove, targeted Hillary Clinton in an ad released Monday, raising questions about whether it's appropriate for Clinton's family foundation to accept money from foreign governments.

And in a curious piece of strategic jiu-jitsu, the group used the words of a staunch progressive - Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Massachusetts - to make its case.

"Powerful interests have tried to capture Washington and rig the system in their favor," intones Warren's voice in the 30-second ad. "The power of well-funded special interests tilts our democracy away from the people and toward the powerful...Action is required to defend our great democracy against those who would see it perverted into one more rigged game where the rich and the powerful always win."

As the ad concludes, the text onscreen reads, "Powerful Foreign Governments are Ready for Hillary. Are We?"

The Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation is a non-profit group that dedicates itself to a variety of philanthropic causes across the world. As she mulls a presidential bid in 2016, Hillary Clinton has come under fire over concerns that the foundation's receipt of money from foreign governments could present a conflict of interest, particularly if she wins the presidency.

The foundation has said it will stop accepting foreign government donations if Clinton launches a bid, just as it did during her time as U.S. Secretary of State. But some have urged the foundation not to wait.

The New York Times editorial board argued last week that it's "important that Mrs. Clinton, in defending the family's efforts on behalf of the world's needy, reassure the public that the foundation will not become a vehicle for insiders' favoritism."

Warren, whom some progressives have entreated to enter the 2016 race, has not commented on the Clinton foundation's finances. Her words in the ad were originally part of a more general critique about how wealthy special interests are crowding out the voice of the American people - a narrative she's deployed frequently against Republicans and conservatives in recent years.

The foundation launched by former President Bill Clinton more than a decade ago has battled HIV and AIDS in Africa, educated millions of children and fed the poor and hungry around the globe. It also has the potential to become a political risk for Hillary Rodham Clinton as she moves toward a second presidential campaign.

The former secretary of state has struggled with some recent bad headlines over large donations given to the foundation by foreign governments in the past two years, and the $200 million-plus the organization has raised since 2013, ahead of her anticipated White House campaign.

Republicans contend that foreign governments donating to a foundation led by a potential U.S. president creates unacceptable conflicts of interests. Also, the involvement of big money reinforces a long-standing narrative pushed by the GOP of the Clintons as a couple who frequently mix business and politics.

"Unless Hillary Clinton immediately reinstates the ban on foreign countries giving to her foundation and returns the millions of dollars these governments have already donated, she's setting an incredibly dangerous precedent," said the chairman of the Republican National Committee, Reince Priebus. "The American people are not about to elect a president in Hillary Clinton who could expose them to the demands of foreign governments because they dumped massive sums of cash into her foundation."

The foundation, which is scheduled to hold events in Morocco and Greece this spring, defended its financial support and addressed how it might function if Clinton runs for president. If she seeks office again, something taken as a given by most, the foundation said it would ensure its policies and practices are "appropriate, just as we did when she served as secretary of state."

In 2009, when Clinton became President Barack Obama's chief diplomat, the foundation stopped raising money from foreign governments. The fundraising involving non-U.S. entities resumed in 2013, after she left his administration.

The Wall Street Journal last week reported the foundation had received money in 2014 from the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Oman and others. The Washington Post reported the charity has raised nearly $2 billion since the former president started it in 2001. About one-third of its donations of $1 million or more come from foreign governments or non-U.S. entities, the newspaper found.

Democrats say the Clintons can defend their work at the foundation because of its track record and history of tackling some of the world's biggest problems, from AIDS and clean water to hunger, educational opportunities and the protection of endangered wildlife.

"The foundation has done amazing work," said Connecticut Gov. Dan Malloy, a Democrat who campaigned with Bill Clinton last year. "It has been a unifying force in our national affairs and in our international affairs."

They also note that the foundation voluntarily discloses its donors nonprofits are not required to do and say there is no evidence the Clintons have used it to enrich themselves. Nearly 90 percent of the foundation's money goes toward its programming.
