Apparently the hedge fund backing a uranium mine gave 145 Million dollars to Hillary Clinton. This was a Russian company who wanted to get a deal done and donated to the Clinton machine.

This uranium company was able to get a favorable deal under Hillary Clinton's state department.

This was uncovered and now Hillary is restating her tax returns.

What POS gets 145 Million dollars from a foreign company? How stupid is Hillary? How corrupt and above the law must this moron feel? She is done she won't even be able to run for president my prediction is she resigns or worse ends up in Jail.

On Thursday, the New York Times verified and confirmed facts presented in the forthcoming book Clinton Cash which reveals that in October 2010, then-Sec. of State Hillary Rodham Clinton approved the Russian government’s takeover of a company named Uranium One—a decision that gave away half of U.S. uranium output to the Russian government, resulted in the deal’s investors giving the Clinton Foundation $145 million, and occurred while Bill Clinton made hundreds of thousands of dollars in speaking fees paid for by Kremlin-connected businesses.

Wouldn't U1 still have had to buy the mine? Which mine?

Anyhow, Can I be the first to claim "I told you so, B&H are dirty"?
 
And there's this:

[Schweizer] is now the president of the Government Accountability Institute, a conservative research organization based in Florida that, during the 2012 campaign, issued a report accusing the Obama Administration of illegally soliciting foreign donations. On the other side of the ledger, he has written two books about money and politics that criticized politicians from both parties, including Dennis Hastert, the former Republican Speaker of the House. One of them, published in 2011, was titled “Throw Them All Out.”

But most of Schweizer’s writing appears to have been directed at Democrats, and he is clearly a man of the right. In 2011, the Times reported that he was advising Sarah Palin on foreign policy. Brock, during his appearance on MSNBC, claimed that the Government Accountability Institute has received funding from entities affiliated with the Koch brothers, adding, “It’s subsidized by Hillary Clinton’s enemies.”

Oh, this book is bound to be scrupulously fair and unbiased. :rolleyes:

Leaving aside the house extremely dubious source, I would have thought conservatives would applaud Hillary's behaving like an ultra-capitalist.

Yeah, bribery is legal in the US. You just need to separate the quid from the quo. Put a cheesy mustache on the pro and its all good.
 
It might be too early to call, but this one looks like it might stick to the teflon Clintons.

No, you're mistaken. The link you posted in the OP, and the article you quoted from in the OP is Breitbart. Here's the link.

If you'd like to quote from the New York Times, that's fine. Go to the New York Times item the Breitbart piece is quoting from, read it, and quote from it. But until and unless you do, your source is Breitbart rather than the Times.

Media Matters has numerous pieces up exposing flaws in Schweizer's work (past and present). They too cite sources in their pieces such as the New York Times and ABC News. But if someone cites a Media Matters piece in which Media Matters quotes from the New York Times, I assume you'd be able to see the source being relied on is Media Matters. Same standard applies to people relying on Breitbart.
 
What was that book that was going to "finish Obama" back in 08?

American politicians only go down for sex scandals, never for financial ones. Remember the "Keating Five"? At the time it was the biggest politician finance scandal ever. Whatever happened to those guys? Oh yeah. One of them ran for president and even the opposition didn't bother bringing it up. Most people don't understand financial stuff, and thus let it slide on by. The Clintons can roll around in dirty money from sunrise to sunset; as long as they don't roll around in it with interns it won't hurt them a bit.
 
Well, if being played by Emma Thompson, a known British person, doesn't destroy an American candidate, I don't know what could. I mean for pity's sake, that movie had John Travolta in it!
 
She's not done. She will be the next POTUS and Republicans will whine so much that there won't be enough cheese to offset it.

THe company donated 145 Million to the Clintons

According to the Times and Schweizer’s book, former President Bill Clinton and Clinton Foundation mega donor and Canadian mining executive Frank Giustra flew to Kazakhstan in September 2005 and met with Kazakh dictator Nursultan Nazarbeyev. Giustra wanted lucrative uranium mining concessions, and within 48 hours of Clinton and Giustra’s trip, Giustra’s company, then-named UrAsia Energy, signed memos of understanding outlining the transfer of uranium mining assets.

Months after the trip, Giustra transferred $31.1 million to the Clinton Foundation and announced a multi-year commitment to donate $100 million to the Clinton’s family foundation, as well as half of his future profits.

“All of my chips, almost, are on Bill Clinton,” said Giustra. “He can do things and ask for things no one else can.”
