You want to know where the REAL Russian scandal is at?

Right THE FUCK here... http://www.nationalreview.com/articl...n-racketeering


Not only the Clintons are implicated in a uranium deal with the Russians that compromised national-security interests. Let’s put the Uranium One scandal in perspective: The cool half-million bucks the Putin regime funneled to Bill Clinton was five times the amount it spent on those Facebook ads — the ones the media-Democrat complex ludicrously suggests swung the 2016 presidential election to Donald Trump. The Facebook-ad buy, which started in June 2015 — before Donald Trump entered the race — was more left-wing agitprop (ads pushing hysteria on racism, immigration, guns, etc.) than electioneering. The Clintons’ own long-time political strategist Mark Penn estimates that just $6,500 went to actual electioneering. (You read that right: 65 hundred dollars.) By contrast, the staggering $500,000 payday from a Kremlin-tied Russian bank for a single speech was part of a multi-million-dollar influence-peddling scheme to enrich the former president and his wife, then–secretary of state Hillary Clinton. At the time, Russia was plotting — successfully — to secure U.S. government approval for its acquisition of Uranium One, and with it, tens of billions of dollars in U.S. uranium reserves.

Here’s the kicker: The Uranium One scandal is not only, or even principally, a Clinton scandal. It is an Obama-administration scandal.

The greater part of the piece of shit obama's presidency was geared toward treason. For his agenda was one designed to deliberately weaken this nation.. A DAMN FACT...
YET NEITHER HE NOR THE CLINTONS WILL EVER FACE ANY JUSTICE FOR THEIR ACTIONS-- THAT IS WHEN YOU KNOW THAT A NATION IS ON THE PRECIPICE OF ITS OWN DESTRUCTION.
When our checks and balances have been abandoned by the leftest infiltration of our judicial system.. And the leftist media giving cover for those democrat politicians and their allies engaged in it all ..-Tyr

Yet your buddy Jeff Sessions does nothing.

A criticism if he does nothing and an even greater criticism will come from you if does do something.
Which is the usual liberal/leftist way, IMHO.
DAMNED IF YOU DO AND DAMNED IF YOU DON'T IS PRACTICED BY HYPOCRITES.
Which is why its the automatic go to path for dems/libs/leftists and their stinking allies! -Tyr

Not "yet."

[LongTermGuy]

Yet your buddy Jeff Sessions does nothing.

You shouldn't worry about... his / Trump and co. `Time Table` ...it will not benefit you in any way ..shape..matter or form...ya never know when its coming or what you gonna get...**as more and more information comes out on the deceitful...sleazy...Lying Left.

Yet your buddy Jeff Sessions does nothing.

At least he wasn't the one who allowed this all to happen. And for all we know, investigations have begun behind the scenes.

And while you apparently hold Sessions responsible - I noticed nothing whatsoever about anyone on the Dem side and this entire scandal. Are you not concerned at all about what took place here, and who might have been involved? And whether or not there was anything illegal going on? Or why the Clinton Foundation made money while this all happened?

[jimnyc]

Pete reminds me of some of the MSM who drowned the airwaves with talk of Russia, and still do on anything Russia/Trump/GOP side. But when anything Russia pops up about Hillary/Obama/Dems - they go stunningly silent or it gets lame skewered coverage, aka one liners.

Dan Gainor: Media Obsessed with Trump Russia Conspiracy Ignoring Clinton Uranium One

Media Research Center Vice President of Business and Culture Dan Gainor joined Breitbart News Daily SiriusXM host Raheem Kassam on Monday to discuss the media’s refusal to touch the Hillary Clinton Uranium One story and other topics.

Gainor praised the Hill for breaking the story on the Clintons while pointing out that most establishment media outlets do not want to cover it.

“The major media didn’t want to cover it,” said Gainor. “In fact, yesterday on Face the Nation, John Dickerson was one of the first major media people on CBS, ABC, or NBC to even discuss it. That’s five days after the Hill had the story.”

Gainor added, “The media has spent endless hours promoting this Russia connection for Trump that they’ve never been able to prove. They’ve been talking about it since October of last year. And here you’ve got new allegations actually tying Hillary Clinton to something, and they don’t want to cover it at all.”

He went on to point out the need for more conservative journalism to combat the significant imbalance as compared to the left.

What's your take on this @pete311 ? I know you were quite interested all the way through the Trump accusations from day one, so I figured you would be all over this Uranium crap AND the Clinton's making personal profit off of it!!

How much do you think Obama knew about all of this? Any of it? Do you think he helped, or helped cover anything up? Just your opinion of course.

Timeline: Uranium Exec. Gave $31.3 Million to Clinton Foundation, Russian Bank Paid $500K to Bill Clinton

Presented below is a timeline of events involving former President Bill Clinton, uranium mining deals in Kazakhstan, multi-million dollar donations to the Clinton Foundation, and the U.S.-government approved sale of Uranium One to the Russian state-owned Rosatom, a purchase now under investigation by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Grassley (R-Iowa).

Information for this timeline is taken from two articles in The New York Times that were respectively published on Jan. 31, 2008 and April 23, 2015 – After Mining Deal, Financier Donated to Clinton and Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal. (They are designated in the timeline as NYT 1/31/08 and NYT 4/23/15.)

August 2005: Canadian mining executive Frank Giustra directs his newly formed company, UrAsia Energy Ltd., to send an engineering consultant to Kazakhstan to assess several uranium mines. (NYT 1/31/08)

Sept. 6, 2005: Frank Giustra, on his private jet, flies former President Bill Clinton to Kazakhstan, a former Soviet Republic. (NYT 1/31/08)

After landing in the city of Almaty, Giustra and Clinton have dinner with Kazakhstan’s authoritarian president, Nursultan Nazarbayev. During the visit, Giustra reportedly speaks about his mining interests with Nazarbayev. (NYT 1/31/08)

In Almaty, Bill Clinton praises Nazarbayev for “opening up the social and political life of your country,” and he endorses Kazakhstan’s bid to head the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, a view in contrast with the U.S. government’s position. (NYT 1/31/08)

Clinton’s remarks hand “the Kazakh president a propaganda coup” and Kazhakhstan highlights Clinton’s endorsement in news releases. (NYT 4/23/15)

Sept. 8/9, 2005: Guistra’s “fledgling company, UrAsia Energy Ltd., signed a preliminary deal giving it stakes in three uranium mines controlled by the state-run uranium agency KazAtomProm.” (NYT 4/23/15)

KazAtomProm had to approve the deal, according to its then-CEO Moukhtar Dzhakishev and, he added, President Nazarbayev ultimately signed off on the transaction. (NYT 1/31/08)

“The monster deal stunned the mining industry, turning an unknown shell company [UrAsia Energy Ltd.] into one of the world’s largest uranium producers in a transaction ultimately worth tens of millions of dollars to Mr. Giustra, analysts said.” (NYT 1/31/08)

2006: Frank Giustra donates $31.3 million to the Clinton Foundation. (Neither Giustra nor Clinton disclose precisely when the donation was made.) (NYT 1/31/08)

September 2006: Giustra co-produces a gala for Bill Clinton’s 60th birthday, which raises $21 million for the Clinton Foundation. (NYT 1/31/08)

February 2007: Giustra’s company, UrAsia Energy, merges with Vancouver-based Uranium One, a reported $3.5 billion deal. In Uranium One, UrAsia Energy is still controlled by one of its investors, Ian Telfer, a Canadian. (NYT 4/23/15)

February 2007: KazAtomProm CEO Moukhtar Dzhakishev travels to Chappaqua, N.Y. and meets with Bill Clinton in his home, a meeting arranged by Frank Giustra. Clinton and Giustra at first denied to the New York Times that the meeting occurred but when presented with facts about the meeting, “both men acknowledged it.” Giustra also admitted that he arranged the gathering, claiming that the event “escaped my memory until you raised it.” (NYT 1/31/08)

“Mr. Dzhakishev said he had a vivid memory of his Chappaqua visit, and a souvenir to prove it: a photograph of himself with the former president. ‘I hung up the photograph of us and people ask me if I met with Clinton and I say, Yes, I met with Clinton.’ He said, smiling proudly.” (NYT 1/31/08)

2007: Ian Telfer donates no more than $250,000 to the Clinton Foundation. (NYT 4/23/15)

2007: Frank Giustra sells his stake in the Uranium One merger for a reported $45 million. (NYT 4/23/15)

April 2007: In addition to its newly acquired assets in Kazakhstan, Uranium One starts buying uranium mines in Utah, Wyoming, Texas and Utah. (NYT 4/23/15)

May-June 2009: KazAtomProm CEO Moukhtar Dzhakishev is removed from his position and arrested “on charges that he illegally sold uranium deposits to foreign companies, including at least some of those won by Mr. Giustra’s UrAsia and now owned by Uranium One.” (NYT 4/23/15)

June 2009: Rosatom, the Russian Federation state corporation that oversees nuclear energy, seeks to buy into Uranium One. (NYT 4/23/15)

Mid-June 2009: ARMZ, “a wholly owned subsidiary of Rosatom completed a deal for 17 percent of Uranium One.” ARMZ/Rosatom takes steps to obtain larger shares in Uranium One and contacts the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States for review and potential approval. (NYT 4/23/15)

2009: Uranium One’s Ian Telfer, through his family charity the Fernwood Foundation, donates $1 million to the Clinton Foundation, “the year his company appealed to the American Embassy to help keep its mines in Kazakhstan.” (NYT 4/23/15)

2010: Telfer, through the Fernwood Foundation, donates $250,000 to the Clinton Foundation, “the year Russians sought majority control” of Uranium One. (NYT 4/23/15)

June 2010: Bill Clinton gives a speech in Moscow for a $500,000 fee, paid for by Renaissance Capital, “a Russian investment bank with ties to the Kremlin,” and whose analysts “talked up Uranium One’s stock,” saying in a July 2010 report “that it was ‘the best play’ in the uranium markets.” (NYT 4/23/15)

October 2010: The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) approves the partial sale of Uranium One to Rosatom, which gives the Russians (and President Vladimir Putin) a 51 percent controlling stake in Uranium One. With this deal, Rosatom controls 20% of U.S. uranium production. Members of CFIUS included, among others, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, and Attorney General Eric Holder. (*Bloomberg 10/18/2017 and NYT 4/23/15)

2011: Telfer, through the Ferwood Foundation, donates $600,000 to the Clinton Foundation. (NYT 4/23/15)

2012: Telfer, through the Ferwood Foundation, donates $500,000 to the Clinton Foundation. (NYT 4/23/15)

2009-2012: Between $1.3 million and $5.6 million in contributions were made to the Clinton Foundation by people “with ties to Uranium One or UrAsia, the company that originally acquired Uranium One’s most valuable asset: the Kazakh mines.” (NYT 4/23/15)

Hillary Calls Uranium One Stories ‘Debunked’

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the stories about her and former President Clinton helping Russia obtain drilling rights in the U.S. through Uranium One have been “debunked” and are just people peddling “bologna.”

“I would say it’s the same bologna they’ve been peddling for years, and there’s been no credible evidence by anyone. In fact, it’s been debunked repeatedly and will continue to be debunked,” Clinton said in an October interview with C-SPAN.

While Clinton says that anyone who believes that she helped Russia is in the wrong, The New York Times report details how she and her husband directly helped Russia get a vested interest in the U.S. oil market.

The New York Times reported in April 2015 that the Clinton’s had a hand in helping a Russian energy company obtain drilling rights in the U.S. The Russian company had to get State Department help to purchase the Canadian company Uranium One, which made the Russian agency — Rosatom — one of the largest uranium producers in the world. Rosatom purchased the Canadian company — UrAsia — in January 2005, obtaining its uranium stakes stretching from Central Asia to Western America.

Clinton did not back up her assertion the reports are bogus with hard evidence.

“But here is what they are doing and I have to give them credit,” Clinton said on C-SPAN. “Trump and his allies, including Fox News, are really experts at distraction and diversion. So the closer the investigation about real Russian ties between Trump associates and real Russians, as we heard Jeff Sessions finally admit to in his testimony the other day, the more they want to just throw mud on the wall. I’m their favorite target. Me and President Obama, we are the ones they like to put in the cross hairs,” Clinton said.

Leaders of the Canadian mining industry, who have donated in excess of $25 million according to the Clinton Foundation’s website, built and eventually sold the Russians the aformentioned company that is today known as Uranium One.

Before the Rosatom acquired the Canadian mining stakes, UrAsia had to obtain the vast uranium stakes it held at the time of the merger.

‘Puts This Country in Danger’: Hannity Unloads On Media Failure to Cover Clinton-Uranium Scandal

Fox News host Sean Hannity is fuming over the media’s refusal to cover the Clinton-Uranium One scandal. Hannity told his radio show listers that ignoring the scandal “puts this country in danger.”

Transcript of Sean Hannity’s statement below via CNS:

It is a disgrace. And let me be just [as] straightforward as I can possibly be: The news media in this country, they just outright lie to you on a regular basis – nonstop almost, a year of conspiracy theories, a year of lies without any evidence, a years [sic] of misleading headlines, a year of false reports that they end up rescinding.

“You know, all the evidence of corruption and criminal conduct in one of the biggest American scandals in history involving national security is right in front of the face of every media person. And it involves their favorite country, Russia, Russia, Russia, and their favorite world leader, Putin, Putin, Putin. And they do nothing. They do nothing. That makes them complicit, and that puts this country in danger. Are you listening Fake Jake, and the rest of you over at fake news?

“All the media cares about is destroying Donald Trump. That’s their only obsession. I don’t even think they’re in touch with their pathological hatred of the president at this point and how agenda driven they are at this point. They know not what they do.”

Coincidences my ass. We all know it, some see it more than others, some won't admit it. But coincidences my ass!

Lynch, the Clintons and a series of fantastic coincidences

I don’t believe in coincidences. Not when it comes to crimes. Especially when they involve political corruption.

No such thing as a coincidence. Doesn’t exist.

Yet, we are led to believe it was merely a coincidence that Bill Clinton just happened to be on the tarmac of an Arizona airport at the same time as then-Attorney General Loretta Lynch. We are supposed to accept that their private meeting on board Lynch’s plane had nothing whatsoever to do with the criminal investigation of Hillary Clinton which the A-G was overseeing at the time.

Right. They just “schmoozed” about grandkids and what-not.

I guess it was also just a coincidence that a few days after the furtive tarmac meeting the decision was announced that criminal charges against Clinton, the Democratic nominee for president, would not be filed, notwithstanding compelling evidence that she repeatedly violated the Espionage Act by storing highly classified documents on her private, unauthorized and unsecured email server in the basement of her home.

Sure. Makes perfect sense. To a naïve, gullible fool.

Maybe it was purely a coincidence that there was another FBI investigation going on involving Russia’s corruption-fueled purchase of U.S uranium assets and which also happened to implicate the Clintons, but was kept hidden from Congress and the American people by Lynch and her predecessor, Eric Holder. Hmm…

And perhaps it was simply an odd coincidence that the investigation of this uranium bribery, extortion, money laundering and kickback case was supervised by then-FBI Director Robert Mueller, his successor James Comey, and then-U.S Attorney Rod Rosenstein, all of whom appear to have covered it up but are now directly involved in the Trump-Russia probe.

Strange confluence of people and events, eh?

I don’t buy any of it. Not for one minute. And not entirely because I don’t believe in coincidences. It is because all the above-mentioned people are known to trifle with the law or ignore disqualifying conflicts of interest. They seem to be without principles --devoid of the kind of scruples that should guide people in service of our government.

Mueller is serving as special counsel in the Trump-Russia case. He reports to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein who appointed him.

Yet both Rosenstein and fired FBI Director James Comey are witnesses in the case, since Rosenstein recommended to President Trump that Comey be fired.

It is well established that Comey and Mueller are long-time friends, allies and former partners. How can Mueller be fair and impartial given these glaring conflicts of interest? He cannot. And he should recuse himself. Rosenstein should also step aside in overseeing the case. He cannot be prosecutor and witness simultaneously.

Their conflicts are compounded by recent reports that all three men were involved in the Russian uranium case which was kept hidden from Congress. How can Americans have confidence in the outcome of the Trump-Russia case if they engaged in a cover-up of the Clinton-Russia case?

Which brings us to Hillary and Bill. The Clinton name is synonymous with scandal. The sleazy Whitewater land deals, an illicit affair with a young White House intern that led to impeachment, deceptions following the Benghazi murders, Travelgate, cattle futures, suspected slush funds, evidence of perjury, the list is seemingly endless.

Through it all, the ability of the Clintons to evade indictments would make Houdini proud. They are escape artists of the highest order.

And almost half of you voted for this criminal. Sad commentary on our society that Mrs Clinton was a couple million votes from becoming president. Sickening commentary.
