Bill and Hillary Clinton personally made $2.85m selling US uranium to Russia

a reply to: Phage

This was a clinton pay to play scheme and their foundation benefitted. If it is pursued the truth will come out and she and bill will be disgraced and face charges. We can only hope this happens.

Clinton could not "approve" the deal. All she could have done was veto it.


Did all of the other eight agencies also have their hands out to the Russians?

They were but rubber stamps, she had ultimate authority. Don't kid yourself about who holds the power in DC.

That is only the money that we got to know about, but the associations and those involved were wider than many may think, many very happy donors on this deal.

And it wasn't Hillary alone and her foundation, Billy also made money on the side after this deal.

Russian was very generous to him and his speeches.

She/they shouldn't have made a dime!

Apparently we aren't supposed to go tit for tat. But quite frankly, tits and tats aren't equaling up and you can't give carte blanc anything goes to tit but hold accountable tat.....it's not gonna fly. I'm sick of this hypocritical and double standard. I hope the Clintons are held responsible and tried for the many crimes they have committed. And if there's anyone who can do it, it's Trump. He should not have been so generous with his forgiveness of the Clintons, he can still go after them.

Have you ever been in charge of anything? Generally, that is how it works. If your team malfunctions, and something goes wrong, it is your fault. Especially if you are running a Government agency. Absolutely. Look at how Trump is getting heat for every little imagined thing the left can think of. Even if he had no direct knowledge of it.

Were they all Obama appointed head of department...Because we've seen the type of people that her as well as him were surrounded with...Hell any politician is going to find people to put in power that will allow those who they see as more powerful to get their way in hopes to garner more power themselves.

I will say thanks for the correction I did not know that and now I kind of want to look into those who signed off on that deal. Wonder how hard it would be to get an idea of if they benefited financially around that time from Russian or Hillary type ties.

Yes, the Russians now own 20% of US uranium assets.

Not exactly. A Russian company bought 51% of a Canadian company which owned 20% of US uranium. So that Russian company actually owned about 10% of US uranium after the intial deal. A deal which Clinton did not have much influence over.

WTF is wrong with the left when they get so emotionally upset over Donald J. Trump when they don't have a damn thing to say about the fact this C U Next Tuesday has aided Russia in the procurement of a material specifically for nuclear weapons?

Uranium which is mined in the US cannot be exported by Uranium One Holding (the Russian company).

Neither Uranium One nor ARMZ holds an NRC export license, so no uranium produced at either facility may be exported.

Phage the hypocrite who runs from debates finally returns. In typical hyperventilating liberal fashion you make an excuse as a Clinton apologist. Aside from the fact none of those percentages are able to be authenticated because no audit has been conducted you are doing nothing but making an excuse for the simple fact that Hillary Clinton abused the position of her office to make a deal with the Russians. You know...the very same country you and your hyperventilating lefties are trying so desperately to connect Trump to?

The hypocrisy of your party is laughable. Let's debate the proper use of ad hominem again. I rather enjoyed that last time.

Irrespective of percentages...the fact Hillary Clinton used the authority of her office to effect such a deal is reprehensible.

Thats all?

You mean to tell me they could have won the lottery and not needed to sell our country out for less than 3 million bucks?

a reply to: Outlier13

The hypocrisy of your party is laughable.

What's your party?

I'm a Libertarian.

Irrespective of percentages..

And the fact that none of the uranium will go to Russia? That it is used in US nuclear power plants?

the fact Hillary Clinton used the authority of her office to effect such a deal is reprehensible.

What did she effect? Never mind the 8 other agencies involved?

Shockingly, between the years of 2009-2013 Russian-backed interests assumed control of one-fifth (20%) of the U.S. uranium supply along with several highly-lucrative mines in Kazakhstan through a secret backdoor deal with the Clintons, as reported by Joe Becker and Mike McIntire in April of 2015.

Proves there really are no borders. Just big wallets in the dirty hands of corrupt people.

I think many of us are aware of the pay for play stuff the Clinton's have been accused of.. Here is just one rather large example of their schnanagans which some of our members have brought up when pointing a finger at the Clinton's shady dealings .

Russian collusion confirmed: Bill and Hillary Clinton personally made $2.85m selling US uranium to Russia

More beforeitsnews bullshy, while the rest of the silly sites have followed on. The foundation did receive large donations though, but not the figure stated here, nor did Trump get any real mileage out of his allegations some time ago.
Of course the OP could take them to court though if desired....

Really? Well the NY times says it is ...

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.

Excellent point. I wish Phage and friends would read this carefully and ponder their next thoughts before posting the same weak rubbish to defend the Clinton's that helped DJT become POTUS.

a reply to: 727Sky

Didn't the Canadian company then proceed to donate large sums of money to the Clinton foundation before the deal?

More than 2.35 million. Here is a great article from the nytimes which outlines it. www.nytimes.com...

If this doesn't stink then I don't know what does. Let's not even mention podesta hillarys campaign manager

I believe that Robert Meuller is the guy who personally delivered it to the Russians.

No. Mueller just lent Comey his car. Comey drove.

As head of state at the time she was the one to rubber stamp that deal as OK...No one else under her has such an authority.

False. There were nine agencies involved. Any one of which could have vetoed the deal.

Even if Clinton had wanted to make sure the sale was approved, it wouldn't have been possible for her to do it on her own. CFIUS is made up of not only the Secretary of State, but also the secretaries of Treasury, Justice, Homeland Security, Commerce, Defense, and Energy, as well as the heads of the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative and the Office of Science and Technology Policy.

I feel like you're purposely forgetting the part about partisan politics. No one was going to say no to the Secretary of State that was also a Clinton.

Makes one wonder how many secretive and lucrative deals Trump has with Russia.
Mind boggling, indeed.

None of this matters anymore... Republicans have forfeited their voice on this.

New rules as of 2016 Election and current Trump presidency... No amount of personal finance profit from being president or any kind of role in government and/or charity matters to Republicans.... in other words.... Anything shady as f###, does not bother Republicans.

So don't pretend.
