    Here's Fox News explaining that the latest Clinton scandal is a load of nonsense. Well done Fox News.

    Analysis: As Liberals Cheer Shepard Smith's Fact Check, is 'Uranium One' a Real Story, or Not?
    https://townhall.com/tipsheet/guyben...r-not-n2409862
    (1) Smith notes that questions about the Uranium One deal were first seriously raised by Peter Schweizer, whom he identifies as a Breitbart editor. Someone's professional connection to that website can be discrediting in many circles, but it's worth pointing out that Schweizer's investigative journalism in Clinton Cash was seen as credible by mainstream media outlets like the New York Times and Washington Post, which forged formal agreements to access and build off of his research.

    (2) The New York Times published a major piece about the Uranium One deal in 2015, noting that it helped fulfill Vladimir Putin's goal of amassing more control over the global uranium supply. The key excerpt from that story:
    At the heart of the tale are several men, leaders of the Canadian mining industry, who have been major donors to the charitable endeavors of former President Bill Clinton and his family. Members of that group built, financed and eventually sold off to the Russians a company that would become known as Uranium One. Beyond mines in Kazakhstan that are among the most lucrative in the world, the sale gave the Russians control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off was the State Department, then headed by Mr. Clinton’s wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton. As the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation.

    Uranium One’s chairman used his family foundation to make four donations totaling $2.35 million. Those contributions were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons, despite an agreement Mrs. Clinton had struck with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors. Other people with ties to the company made donations as well. And shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One, Mr. Clinton received $500,000 for a Moscow speech from a Russian investment bank with links to the Kremlin that was promoting Uranium One stock. At the time, both Rosatom and the United States government made promises intended to ease concerns about ceding control of the company’s assets to the Russians. Those promises have been repeatedly broken, records show.


    So a big element of this story -- which played out over five years, during which time key players in the transaction poured lots of money into the Clintons' personal and "charitable" bank accounts -- is the non-disclosure of interested donors, as was required. Smith mentions this in his monologue. Also at issue were the "repeatedly broken" pledges meant to mitigate national security concerns about Russia's acquisition of significant American uranium interests. And yes, it's a fact that one of several agencies that ultimately had to sign off on the agreement was the State Department, which was headed at the time by Hillary Clinton. She was not the sole approver of the deal, nor could she have single-handedly stopped it from going through; also, it's unclear how personally involved she was in the process (given her track record, it's reasonable to treat denials from her and her underlings with great skepticism). Regardless, her agency's thumbs-up did help pave the way for the plan to become reality.

    (3) The biggest piece of the Clinton puzzle as it relates to Uranium One is Bill Clinton, and the gobs of money he hauled in from interested parties over the years -- in exchange for the extraordinary access and political legitimatization that accompanies the blessing of a former US president. Back to the Times story:
    The path to a Russian acquisition of American uranium deposits began in 2005 in Kazakhstan, where the Canadian mining financier Frank Giustra orchestrated his first big uranium deal, with Mr. Clinton at his side. The two men had flown aboard Mr. Giustra’s private jet to Almaty, Kazakhstan, where they dined with the authoritarian president, Nursultan A. Nazarbayev. Mr. Clinton handed the Kazakh president a propaganda coup when he expressed support for Mr. Nazarbayev’s bid to head an international elections monitoring group, undercutting American foreign policy and criticism of Kazakhstan’s poor human rights record by, among others, his wife, then a senator. Within days of the visit, Mr. Giustra’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.

    If the Kazakh deal was a major victory, UrAsia did not wait long before resuming the hunt. In 2007, it merged with Uranium One, a South African company with assets in Africa and Australia, in what was described as a $3.5 billion transaction. The new company, which kept the Uranium One name, was controlled by UrAsia investors including Ian Telfer, a Canadian who became chairman. Through a spokeswoman, Mr. Giustra, whose personal stake in the deal was estimated at about $45 million, said he sold his stake in 2007. Soon, Uranium One began to snap up companies with assets in the United States...several months [after the fruitful 2005 trip], Mr. Giustra had donated $31.3 million to Mr. Clinton’s foundation.
    ....


    So yeah such Shep Smith's dick all you want there's still a story there

    Winter supposedly alerted Democratic leaders about the incident in 2016 but nothing was done.


    I predict there's going to be a lot more political casualties on both sides when it comes right down to it, it's just what's hot right now.

    The guy who donated the $145 million to the Clinton Foundation did so three years after he'd sold his stake in the uranium company and a couple of years before Hillary even became Secretary of State. Hillary didn't make the desicion over whether to allow the sale of the company to the Russians and even if she had there were another nine government departments who had to sign off on it. It's another nonstory. It's just with the Trump-Russia thing ongoing and elections coming nexy year the GOP need another Benghazi to rouse the rabble and get them to vote, fundraise and so on.

    I notice you're not taking up my Trump/Clinton sex crimes investigation offer.

    Had this been the very first time the Clintons as a duo had been or even seemed to be unethical, then yeah I'd side with you, but with their history you can't just say "Meh, it looks fishy, but there's nothing there". Whitewater, Cattle Futures, Travelgate.



    The Trump vs Bill Clinton sex crimes investigation is one sided....Trump said "They let you grab 'em by the pussy" which implies consent even if groping was alleged Bill Clinton is a RAPIST there's no comparison to be had. Wishful thinking on your part and 20 years too late. Not only that Hillary ran cover for Bill, she was head of the and I quote HER words "Bimbo Eruptions" unit of the Bill Clinton campaign.

    Great to see both acting like adults this morning. Franken admits fully and calls for investigation . Releases sincere apology and owns action. Tweeden fully accepts on air and says its heartfelt and isn't calling for his job.

    the rampant pace has surely kicked up. The lines are blurred and have heard some dipshit in Alabama drop Franken-boob honker gate in relation to child molestation ffs.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
