Republicans press U.S.-Russia uranium deal probe despite no wrongdoing findings

Republican lawmakers are pressing forward with an investigation into the 2010 sale of a Canadian uranium company, which owned 20 percent of U.S. uranium supplies, to a Russian government firm, despite five congressional inquiries having found no evidence of wrongdoing.

Five committees in the U.S. House and Senate found no evidence that Clinton was behind the CFIUS’ approval of the deal, according to congressional records.

In Twitter posts, Trump has called for an investigation of the sale, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions said on Tuesday he is evaluating whether to appoint a special counsel.

Democrats and other critics say the allegations are baseless, and that Trump and his supporters are fanning them to distract attention from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into whether there was any collusion between the Trump election campaign and Russia.

While Clinton was Secretary of State at the time of the sale, her department has only one of nine votes on CFIUS, which is chaired by the Treasury Department and approved the sale unanimously.

In addition, the State Department CFIUS seat was occupied not by her, but by Jose Fernandez, then-assistant secretary for economic, energy, and business affairs, who has said Clinton played no role in the decision.


The sale also was approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and Obama.

In a related development, Representative Elijah Cummings, the top oversight committee Democrat, objected on Wednesday to the Republicans’ refusal to give Democrats access to an unidentified FBI informant whom Republican lawmakers say has new evidence in the case.

Republicans press U.S.-Russia uranium deal probe despite no wrongdoing findings

You could have made the same headline saying "Democrats push Russia Collusion Story despite no findings of wrongdoing"

Both of them are going to end up being a circle jerk, if you think your going to find an exchange where someone in the trump campaign gave something to Russia for the hacked emails you have your head up your ass.

Sure, if people weren't getting indicted or pleading guilty.

Hell, if FBI directors weren't being fired and your own DOJ is investigating you, what role do Democrats have in all these investigations? Every single one is being led by a Republican.
 
Does anyone think Congress every got to the bottom of anything in the previous investigations.
Besides tons of new evidence has come into the picture.
Including criminal investigations related to that transaction...

and... there is new info coming out every few days.
I am not vouching for this but it is interesting...

Later confirmation of a criminal probe into the Clinton Foundation came from Bret Baier.

The discovery by Katica shows that on August 28th, 2015, an FBI special agent sent a notification to preserve records to: •Nuclear Regulatory Commission; •The U.S. Dept. of Treasury; •Office of Director of National Intelligence (ODNI James Clapper); •The National Counter Terrorism Center; and the •U.S. Department of Energy (DoE).

Each of these agencies was intricately involved in the 2010 approval of the Uranium One deal. Indeed, each of these specific agencies is involved in the CFIUS approval process for the purchase within the Uranium One deal. Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State at the time.

Five Days later, on September 2nd, 2015, the FBI special agent sent another notification for preservation of records to the same agencies -beginning with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission- and adding: the National Security Agency (NSA – Admiral Mike Rogers) and the United States Secret Service (USSS).

The following day, on September 3rd, 2015, the FBI special agent submitted a supplemental notification for preservation of records to: •The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), •Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), and •The Department of Defense.

Taken in their totality those FBI special agent notifications now encompassed every member of the CFIUS group who “signed off” on approval of the Uranium One deal.

It would be intellectually dishonest not to see the very likely attachment of the special agent’s action. That is to say an FBI probe originating as an outcome of information retrieved in parallel to the timing of the “criminal probe” of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s email use.

The sequence of events highlights a criminal probe starting [early August 2015], followed by notifications to the “Uranium One” CFIUS participants [late August 2015].

Congress can get, and see, those FBI preservation notification documents without redaction. Congress could then interview the FBI special agent who was obviously in charge of key elements within the 2015 probe. Put the FBI special agent together with the unnamed FBI informant, question them, and discover what they know about the entire Uranium One deal – and there’s the road-map to tear this thing wide open.

Note who actually comprises the CFIUS (Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States):

CFIUS is comprised of the heads of almost every single major department under the Obama Administration.

The FBI sent Preservation and Records Requests to the following agencies:

  • Nuclear Regulatory Commission
  • The U.S. Dept. of Treasury
  • The Office of Director of National Intelligence (ODNI James Clapper)
  • The National Counter Terrorism Center
  • The U.S. Department of Energy (DoE)
  • The National Security Agency (NSA – Admiral Mike Rogers)
  • The United States Secret Service (USSS)
  • The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)
  • The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA)
  • The Department of Defense.
Equally important is the one agency left off the list:

If you read the 2015 FBI agent information u might notice a CFIUS approver not notified. The U.S. Dept. of State. [Omission is not accident]

Hillary Clinton’s State Department…

For those who notice another ommission, reminder: The FBI is a subset of the Department of Justice.

Julian Assange hinted at the magnitude of Uranium One when he released John Podesta’s emails. His opening statement to the Podesta release contained the following comment:

In April 2015 the New York Times published a story about a company called “Uranium One” which was sold to Russian government-controlled interests, giving Russia effective control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for the production of nuclear weapons, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of US government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off the deal was the State Department, then headed by Secretary Clinton. The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) comprises, among others, the secretaries of the Treasury, Defense, Homeland Security, Commerce and Energy.

As Russian interests gradually took control of Uranium One millions of dollars were donated to the Clinton Foundation between 2009 and 2013 from individuals directly connected to the deal including the Chairman of Uranium One, Ian Telfer. Although Mrs Clinton had an agreement with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors to the Clinton Foundation, the contributions from the Chairman of Uranium One were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons.

I thought had a grasp of the scandal’s magnitude.

I was wrong.

This is bigger. Much bigger.

Disclosures of Democrat-related scandals are now coming at a furious pace. You can expect an indictment of Tony and/or John Podesta shortly. Each day seems to bring new revelations. It’s becoming difficult to keep up.

As I’ve said before, the days and weeks ahead are going to get interesting.

This is just the beginning…

If there is tons of evidence then why is DOJ not even starting a full fledged investigation? The deal is years old, Trump's DOJ is almost a year old, if there is tons of evidence and things are so clear cut, what's the delay? What's stopping Gowdy and Grassley from recommending a criminal investigation by the FBI if they found absolutely anything relevant? There is no more Comey excuse, Trump's guy runs the FBI now.

More conspiracy bullshit from birthers.
