Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Monday that renewed focus on Russian uranium deals approved during her tenure is nothing more than debunked “baloney" and a sign that Republicans are nervous about the current intelligence probe into Moscow's efforts to meddle with last year's election.

"I think the real story is how nervous they are about these continuing investigations," the former Democratic presidential nominee said during an interview broadcast on C-SPAN.

The renewed interest in the so-called Uranium One deal came after The Hill reported last week that the FBI had gathered solid evidence that Russian nuclear industry officials were engaged in bribery and extortion before the Obama administration approved the sale to Russia of a company that controls 20 percent of America's uranium supply.

Clinton added, "I’m their favorite target. Me and President Obama, we are the ones they like to put in the crosshairs."

Multiple congressional committees, including the Senate Judiciary panel and the House Intelligence panel, are taking steps to investigate the new information reported by The Hill and talk to an undercover informant who worked the nuclear bribery case.

You wanted Russia Russia Russia, you got Russia Russia Russia!

Remember, "Bad Instincts" Hillary was warned countless times by Bill, Podesta and others to get out of the spotlight. Hillary and the Dems really brought this upon themselves.

Saudi Arabia officially announces moderation and opposition to hardcore Wahabis instead of exporting them.
Boeing announces big Singapore purchase.
NFL numbers continuing to dwindle.
Flake announces retirement rather than embarrass Country Club GOPe by losing badly.
Norks hiring consultants to understand Trump, can't believe their playbook was flipped.
Multiple investigations into Hillary & Associates with Uranium One and the Podesta Group.

Winning, winning, winning.

lol--how many times have they announced this?

TwoScoopsMcGee says

That's great news--similar to how many other Boeing deals? Did you celebrate every Boeing purchase order under Obama?

Not as much as Trump's numbers though.

And it'll be fun as Corker and Flake start joining forces to carpet bomb Trump on their way out.

Flake is down -24 in the polls to his opponent in his state, even his own state doesn't like him.


Probably not--but his votes are sure as hell going to matter!

Just a quick question. What's the difference between paying money for dirt and paying for dirt with favors and influence to a foreign power? Does anyone who voted for Trump know the answer?

A never Trumper that votes with Trump 92% of the time.

It will be interesting to see if that changes now that he isn't running for re-election.

As that was all happening — pay attention — around 2010 then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sat on a State Department’s Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), that threatened to block the sale of a Canadian company, Uranium One, to Rosatom, the Russian State Atomic Energy Corporation on the grounds that Uranium One’s assets included 20-percent of the USA’s uranium supply. Selling all that American uranium to Russia looked kind of bad, you’d think, and you’d be right. But then, suddenly, about $150-million dollars poured into the Clinton Foundation — much of it from Uranium One’s owner, one Frank Giustra — plus Bill Clinton happened to get a half-million dollar speaking gig in Russia, and… whaddaya know, CFIUS ended up approving the sale. The public hardly heard a peep about it. (Where was the US new media?)

During that same period, Hillary Clinton also helped facilitate the transfer of American bio-medical, nuclear, and Info technology to the high-tech consortium called Skolkovo, Russia’s version of Silicon Valley. Much of the tech at issue was dual-use, good for civilian and military applications. Again, tens of millions of dollars gushed into the Clinton Foundation from the corporate participants in the Skolkovo deal. Crickets from the news media again.
