Actor George Clooney and his business partner John Prendergast are calling for action against multi-national companies and brokers who are profiting off the violence and instability in South Sudan. CNN's Nima Elbagir spoke with them about their campaign to stop what they call the "looting" of the central African nation. #CNN #News

This is a pure joke I’m sorry to be sooo neg but Clooney we already know. The consequence and accountability should begin w our own actions.
This is a fundraiser campaign. Just about using tragedy for money.
If they fix the problem there will be no tragedy to fundraise off of.
All actors do this on their downtime.
@cj p you’re a moron
The US is not the UN. South Sudan will fix themselves.
Try helping your country first, Clooney!!!!!
George “hasn’t got a” Clooney
MoJo Trump is Killing America’s Greatness.
Help America, vote out Traitor Trump and Moscow Mitch!
He can move to Sudan, that would help.
…his transvestite husband adopted Sudanese little boys?
Sadly arms dealings, and war profiteering is sadly so going on and all countries small and large like the United States
It’s tragic.
Clooney should start calling for action against corruption in USA first.
It will not help. Trump is out of control and the republicans will not do anything to help. The USA is on the road of destruction with Trump in office.
@jstrey Enjoy drowning in your miserable state of mind.
Na he should shut up n stick to playing make believe
I guess you don’t believe in the right to free speech. So noted. (Assuming it is legal – and this CERTAINLY is) George Clooney should say whatever George Clooney wants to say.
He is anti trump so he is trying to stop the corruption here
E P S T E I N
Stop invoking that jew’s name on this Jewish network. He’s dead and totally not huding out on his other secret island indulging in sex with underage girls like we all wish we were.
So glad he said publicly… the West and Europe profit off of the naive and poor. We are the biggest culprits. Our own backyard poverty will stay impovershed, as long as we let the corruption at the top, fool us. It is the words and the guts of the poor, that will one day turn it all around. I personally thank god for the diversity of human.
Well said!
Batman is going to fight corruption in South Sudan.
How about fighting corruption in the US?
Because America is apart of it and they know it
@lala blu, true.
Well we need to lock up most of the Democrat party and that will help. Also a few Republicans as well
@Justin Jones , only a few Republicans? Wow. Gtfoh. Most Democrats are trash, but they’ve got nothing on Republicans these days.
@Mimi Keel well the Republicans who work against President Trump have to go. But the Democrats who are socialists that want to give away our tax dollars to foreigners instead of Americans are the worse
A joke Clooney is , nobody cares, oh what’s that georgie girl Trump will never be president , your words are a waste
People like you are what’s wrong with this country.
@Mimi Keel wrong ,and your what right ??
I’m sorry.
When this country has so many homeless, I don’t listen to millionaires.
It’s just a rule I have.
California, New York, and Chicago just to name a few.
Where is the cry to help these people ?
Well Trump n Carson have plan for California. Watch the tour Carson took . Listen to what he says….
Carson is a good man. Has very caring heart and puts it to action.
Also….do not care what celebrities say or think. They are ones who led many astray w their garbage……now my eyes are open and never again . Hollywood is hellhole of demons who serve gods that are evil.
60% of the entire population of South Sudan is facing starvation, real starvation! George Clooney has been consistently bringing awareness to South Sudan and other nations where the common citizenry suffer unimaginably daily. George Clooney doesn’t do this to further his own interests, he does because he genuinely cares about the people no matter their nationality.
Rahlow One your a loser!
He asks the decision makers in USA to help stop corruption in Sudan? . . that’s ironic 🙄
Funny you pretend irony…
Jan fromOz the guy held fundraisers for Obama and Hillary for them to receive millions in legal bribes, he supported those 2 candidates who have a horrible record on foreign policy, never criticized them, man I hate neolibs
@Morenito Moreno ‘legal bribes? . . what’s going on in DC now is full fighting ‘Swamp Monsters’ & impeachable felonies.
Jan fromOz what do you call it when pharmaceutical fat cats give “campaign donations” to politicians across the aisle so they can keep inflating the price of their drugs which in most cases where developed by tax payer funded researchers?
@Morenito Moreno what does ‘across the aisle’ mean? swamp monster criminals are on all sides, that the ironic part of my 1st comment. Clooney has high ideals but he expects current policy makers to give a rats 💩 about corruption in Sudan?
No, we don’t listen to these ” narrsacist elitists in Pedowood. Sorry to break it to ya.
You got enough money, just do it!
Didn’t he support Clinton? ..really…lol
Yes, and he supported Epstein. He was on the flight log
@Love Love, Clooney was screwing Epstein’s ex-girlfriend..So what?!
Maybe Clooney should start by calling for an investigation into Joe Biden’s corruption
demtardz can’t stop doubling-down
it’s thrilling
Remember George you are in another country. You may get a khashoggi pulled on you. I’m like his movies
OH right, let’s listen to Epstein’s pal.
Poor Alisyn. CNN has made her snarky, arrogant and angry. Sadly it shows on her face.
Spend some of your money George get err done.
I’d be looking into corruption from the last administration first, huge amounts of evidence.
Profiting off of the conflict in Sudan. Would be nice to have my own “Foundation” where most of the donations are written off as “EXPENSES” for those who run it. Stay in expensive hotels. All traveling costs paid for by the “Foundation” and on and on it goes …
