The Clinton Foundation is under IRS investigation in connection with two companies, Uranium One and Laureate Education. Both companies have paid tens of millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation and have greatly benefited from the government as a result. The quid pro quo is there, with evidence to prove it, but punishing the Clintons for it may be impossible.
The Canadian company, UrAsia, was purchased by the Russian Atomic Energy Agency, Rosatom, in January 2005. The Uranium stakes in this purchase reached from Central Asia to Western America, making Rosatom one of the largest producers of uranium in the world.
The Clinton Foundation received a donation from various leaders of the Canadian mining industry in the excess of $25 million. Prior to the deal, Frank Giustra, a “major mining investor in Canada and owner of UrAsia” won an enormous uranium deal with Kazakhstan with the help of Mr. Clinton.
It is reported that Clinton and Giustra took his private jet to Kazakhstan and met with Nursultan A Nazarbayev, the “autocratic president” of Kazakhstan. Not long after this meeting, UrAsia signed a contract giving them the stake in three uranium mines that were controlled by Kazatomprom, as state-run uranium agency.
The quid pro quo arrived at the Clinton Foundation in the amount of $31.1 million and five months later Mr. Giusta hosted a fundraiser for the “joint Clinton Giusta Sustainable Growth Initiative” where he personally pledged $100 million.
But then there is an instance where the State Department cable traffic rises and there are few if any Clinton corresponding emails. It’s the case of Rosatom, the Russian State Nuclear Agency: Clinton and senior officials at the State Department received dozens of cables on the subject of Rosatom’s activities around the world, including a hair-raising cable about Russian efforts to dominate the uranium market. As secretary of state, Clinton was a central player in a variety of diplomatic initiatives involving Rosatom officials. But strangely, there is only one email that mentions Rosatom in Clinton’s entire collection, an innocuous email about Rosatom’s activities in Ecuador. To put that into perspective, there are more mentions of LeBron James, yoga and NBC’s Saturday Night Live than the Russian Nuclear Agency in Clinton’s emails deemed “official.”
What could explain this lack of emails on the Russian Nuclear Agency? Were Clinton’s aides negligent in passing along unimportant information while ignoring the far more troubling matters concerning Rosatom? Possibly. Or, were emails on this subject deleted as falling into the “personal” category? It is certainly odd that there’s virtually no email traffic on this subject in particular. Remember that a major deal involving Rosatom that was of vital concern to Clinton Foundation donors went down in 2009 and 2010. Rosatom bought a small Canadian uranium company owned by nine investors who were or became major Clinton Foundation donors, sending $145 million in contributions. The Rosatom deal required approval from several departments, including the State Department.
The rest of the story is on the next page.
Will that be by the same bunch that made things so hard for conservative groups awhile back?
“THE RED PLEDGE –
Let’s make our presence known without a doubt on November 8th. I think all Donald Trump supporters should pledge to wear a red shirt all day long on election day and make our presence known. Let the news media try to avoid a sea of red moving across the whole United States of America! They may be able to rig the machines, but they can’t strip countless millions of people of their shirts! There’s no way they can deny our collective voices if we make ourselves physically visual! As for me, I’ll be dressed in red from head to toe!”
Get ready to get down and dirty. Hope they don’t hire the f**e irs that is ran by fakes
If you’re under 50 you really need to read this. If you’re over 50, you lived through it, so share it with those under 50. Amazing to me how much I had forgotten!
When Bill Clinton was president, he allowed Hillary to assume authority over a health care reform. Even after threats and intimidation, she couldn’t even get a vote in a democratic controlled congress. This fiasco cost the American taxpayers about $13 million in cost for studies, promotion, and other efforts.
Then President Clinton gave Hillary authority over selecting a female attorney general. Her first two selections were Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood – both were forced to withdraw their names from consideration. Next she chose Janet Reno – husband Bill described her selection as “my worst mistake.” Some may not remember that Reno made the decision to gas David Koresh and the Branch Davidian religious sect in Waco, Texas resulting in dozens of deaths of women and children.
Husband Bill allowed Hillary to make recommendations for the head of the Civil Rights Commission. Lani Guanier was her selection. When a little probing led to the discovery of Ms. Guanier’s radical views, her name had to be withdrawn from consideration.
Apparently a slow learner, husband Bill allowed Hillary to make some more recommendations. She chose former law partners Web Hubbel for the Justice Department, Vince Foster for the White House staff, and William Kennedy for the Treasury Department. Her selections went well: Hubbel went to prison, Foster (presumably) committed suicide, and Kennedy was forced to resign.
Many younger votes will have no knowledge of “Travelgate.” Hillary wanted to award unfettered travel contracts to Clinton friend Harry Thompson – and the White House Travel Office refused to comply. She managed to have them reported to the FBI and fired. This ruined their reputations, cost them their jobs, and caused a thirty-six month investigation. Only one employee, Billy Dale was charged with a crime, and that of the enormous crime of mixing personal and White House funds. A jury acquitted him of any crime in less than two hours.
Still not convinced of her ineptness, Hillary was allowed to recommend a close Clinton friend, Craig Livingstone, for the position of Director of White House security. When Livingstone was investigated for the improper access of about 900 FBI files of Clinton enemies (Filegate) and the widespread use of drugs by White House staff, suddenly Hillary and the president denied even knowing Livingstone, and of course, denied knowledge of drug use in the White House. Following this debacle, the FBI closed its White House Liaison Office after more than thirty years of service to seven presidents.
Next, when women started coming forward with allegations of sexual harassment and rape by Bill Clinton, Hillary was put in charge of the #$%$ eruption” and scandal defense. Some of her more notable decisions in the debacle were:
She urged her husband not to settle the Paula Jones lawsuit. After the Starr investigation they settled with Ms. Jones.
She refused to release the Whitewater documents, which led to the appointment of Ken Starr as Special Prosecutor. After $80 million dollars of taxpayer money was spent, Starr’s investigation led to Monica Lewinsky, which led to Bill lying about and later admitting his affairs.
Hillary’s devious game plan resulted in Bill losing his license to practice law for ‘lying under oath’ to a grand jury and then his subsequent impeachment by the House of Representatives.
Hillary avoided indictment for perjury and obstruction of justice during the Starr investigation by repeating, “I do not recall,” “I have no recollection,” and “I don’t know” a total of 56 times while under oath.
After leaving the White House, Hillary was forced to return an estimated $200,000 in White House furniture, china, and artwork that she had stolen.
What a swell party – ready for another four or eight year of this type of low-life mess?
Now we are exposed to the destruction of possibly incriminating emails while Hillary was Secretary of State and the “pay to play” schemes of the Clinton Foundation – we have no idea what shoe will fall next. But to her loyal fans – “what difference does it make?”
Electing Hillary Clinton president would be like granting Satan absolution and giving him the keys to heaven!
Good!
Obama will cover for her
Yay like the conservative groups
no problem @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@22
I hope they publish their findings before the election.
Yes and they will do what? The IRS has so much hidden themselves, so they will get threats of death and that will be the end of that, blackmail and boom all done, nothing done. Another joke! Just another political circus to throw in our faces. Bunch of BS.
