FBI uncovered Russian bribery plot before Obama administration approved controversial nuclear deal with Moscow

[ayin jade]

Federal agents used a confidential U.S. witness working inside the Russian nuclear industry to gather extensive financial records, make secret recordings and intercept emails as early as 2009 that showed Moscow had compromised an American uranium trucking firm with bribes and kickbacks in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, FBI and court documents show.

They also obtained an eyewitness account — backed by documents — indicating Russian nuclear officials had routed millions of dollars to the U.S. designed to benefit former President Bill Clinton’s charitable foundation during the time Secretary of State Hillary Clinton served on a government body that provided a favorable decision to Moscow, sources told The Hill.

 

Rather than bring immediate charges in 2010, however, the Department of Justice (DOJ) continued investigating the matter for nearly four more years, essentially leaving the American public and Congress in the dark about Russian nuclear corruption on U.S. soil during a period when the Obama administration made two major decisions benefiting Putin’s commercial nuclear ambitions.

So what do you think they will do to these bad people? Mrs Clinton seems to have a golden get-out-of-jail-free card. So what would be next? Indictments?

If HBO wasn't so left wing, it would have a natural for a new mini-series:

THIS, (not alleged Russian/Trump collusion) is the scandal.     Mueller, Rosenstein, and Holder need to be investigated, as Mueller was head of the FBI at the time.  Sessions needs to get off his duff and investigate Hillary Clinton, as well.

However,  I don't think much will come of this.   The reason being, too many people have too much dirt on each other in Washington DC.  It's why we have all of these scandals from the Obama Administration, but they seem to just fizzle out when calls for investigations  are made.   People want the swamp to investigate itself.  And that is just not going to happen.

As perfectly scandalous as this is, I don't think it will go anywhere and I am pretty sure certifiable threats have been issued behind the scenes to make sure it doesn't go anywhere.  A new crisis will be manufactured to take this story out of the news cycle so that the media has a shiny ball to keep every distracted until the story is sufficiently buried and out of the memories of Americans.
