    An informant has come forward with evidence that the Clinton Global Initiative received $3 million from Moscow in lobbying fees in exchange for nuclear support. But it gets worse for Democrats as more evidence that the media covered up this scandal surfaces as well.

    Don’t expect the mainstream media to report on this:

    An undercover FBI informant embedded in the Russian nuclear industry who was made to sign an “illegal NDA (non-disclosure agreement)” by former Attorney General Loretta Lynch has finally given his testimony to three Congressional committees.  William D. Campbell became an FBI counterintelligence asset after spending several years as a CIA operative who developed working relationships in the nuclear industry in Kazakhstan and Russia.

    Campbell discovered that Moscow had compromised an American uranium trucking firm, Transport Logistics International (TLI) in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which bribed a Russian nuclear official in exchange for a contract transport Russian-mined U.S. uranium, including “yellowcake” uranium secured in the Uranium One deal.

    What happened next, according to Campbell’s testimony, was that Moscow routed millions of dollars to the United States with the expectation it would be used to benefit Bill Clinton‘s charitable efforts while Secretary of State Hillary Clinton quarterbacked a “reset” in US-Russian relations. Campbell said in the statement obtained by The Hill that he was told by Russian nuclear executives that Moscow had hired the American lobbying firm APCO Worldwide specifically because it was in a position to influence the Obama administration, and more specifically Hillary Clinton.

    Campbell said Russian nuclear officials “told me at various times that they expected APCO to apply a portion of the $3 million annual lobbying fee it was receiving from the Russians to provide in-kind support for the Clinton’s Global Initiative,” he added in the testimony.  “The contract called for four payments of $750,000 over twelve months. APCO was expected to give assistance free of charge to the Clinton Global Initiative as part of their effort to create a favorable environment to ensure the Obama administration made affirmative decisions on everything from Uranium One to the U.S.-Russia Civilian Nuclear Cooperation agreement.” Now, who’s been caught “colluding with Russia?

    APCO Worldwide immediately went into damage control mode.” APCO Worldwide’s activities involving client work on behalf of Tenex and The Clinton Global Initiative were totally separate and unconnected in any way,” APCO told The Hill in a statement. “All actions on these two unconnected activities were appropriate, publicly documented from the outset and consistent with regulations and the law. Any assertion otherwise is false and unfounded.”

    Meanwhile, Campbell claims to have video evidence of bribe money related to the Uranium One deal being stuffed into suitcases. Obama’s FBI knew about the bribery scheme, yet the administration still approved the Uranium One deal. Campbell was paid $51,000 by FBI officials at a 2016 celebration dinner in Crystal City to “thank him for his service.” When it emerged that Campbell had evidence against the Clinton Foundation, a Yahoo News article by Michael Isikoff (of FISA warrant application fame) slammed Campbell as a “disaster” potential witness.

    This is more evidence that the media is covering up major scandals of The Obama Administration and other powerful Democrats, like Hillary and Bill Clinton.

    Campbell told Congressional investigators that the Uranium One deal, along with billions in other uranium contracts inside the United States during the Obama administration, was part of a “Russian uranium dominance strategy” involving Tenex and its American arm Tenem – both subsidiaries of state-owned Russian energy company Rosatom.

    “The emails and documents I intercepted during 2010 made clear that Rosatom’s purchase of Uranium One – for both its Kazakh and American assets – was part of Russia’s geopolitical strategy to gain leverage in global energy markets,” he testified.  “I obtained documentary proof that Tenex was helping Rosatom win CFIUS approval, including an October 6, 2010 email …  asking me specifically to help overcome opposition to the Uranium One deal. Rosatom/Tenex threw a party to celebrate, which was widely attended by American nuclear industry officials. At the request of the FBI, I attended and recorded video footage of Tenam’s new offices,” he added.

    Nick Merrill, a spokesman for Clinton, also attempted some damage control.  Merrill said Campbell’s account is simply being used to distract from the investigations into President Trump and Russia. “Just yesterday the committee made clear that this secret informant charade was just that, a charade. Along with the widely debunked text-message-gate and Nunes’ embarrassing memo episode, we have a trifecta of GOP-manufactured scandals designed to distract from their own President’s problems and the threat to democracy he poses,” Merrill said.

    Campell painted a different picture, however. He accused Obama administration officials of making decisions that ended up benefitting the Russian nuclear industry, which he said was seeking to build a monopoly in the global uranium market to help President Vladimir Putin seek a geopolitical advantage over the United States. 

    “I remember one response I got from an agent when I asked how it was possible CFIUS would approve the Uranium One sale when the FBI could prove Rosatom was engaged in criminal conduct. His answer: ‘Ask your politics,’ ” Campbell said.

      1. I’ve said many times – one word describes this: treason. I have this perverse hope to live long enough to piss on their graves. Too, I’m feeling like a bookie – want to place any bets on whether they’ll walk on this? 1500 to one …. yes, they’ll get off scot-free.

        • The rich and elite never go to jail. The U.S. system of Justice is and has always been a two tiered system. One for the powerful and one for the people. Disgusting!

          • That’s how Oligarchies work.

          • example: John Corzine.

        • There will likely be no serious charges brought against these treasonous individuals for a few reasons; for one they are part of the deep state – or you can say TPTB, another is they all have too much dirt on each other, a third is there are just a lot of people in positions of power who can be paid, manipulated, or are just simple-minded ideologues who will arrange to cover the corruption and use murder or use the machinery of the state to make it go away.
          There is far and away way more evidence and proof necessary already available to have these dogs exposed and stand trial to pay for their grotesque crimes against the country and against the people of the US. The American prison system is literally full of people who were convicted of serious felonies merely on circumstantial evidence. If there was an intent to prosecute it could have occurred already. There is no doubt had an average citizen committed even only a tiny fraction of one of their crimes he would be literally placed in prison for the rest of his life; well probably not, he would be murdered because he is not in the clique.
          The antidote for this is to just bust up the country to be divided into a few new countries. Sure, there will always be corruption in every gov’t, but what we are experiencing now is a monstrous terminal cancer of a magnitude that is destroying a great country, we are becoming a third-world nation.
          I am a Southerner, and I detest what I see, we are tired of endlessly tolerating and subsidizing the corruption of a few who have nothing more than personal contempt if not visceral hatred for the citizens. That’s okay, because I can say millions of us down here hate them and only wish to have our own country.

          • Bill, an accurate assessment , but there will be prosecutions

      2. What are they waiting for? Confession? That is what you get when you let an unknown, papers hid, and smiley face step up and say, “Hello, my name is Barack Obama”.
        Your money is gone.

      3. Don’t belittle Obama! The man promised change. He kept his promise. All my paper currency is gone;all I have left is change. I’m saving for the dollar meal at McDonald’s!

      4. Well in other news the wife is working from home today and has her cell phone set to scanner and is getting all the happenings of the great Chimp-Out parade that is going on in Philly. They’re settin fires, jumping on top of police cars and statues, tearing up half of hell. We’re getting the blow by blow description of it all, listening to the police hollering they need more help. What goddamn shame.

        • Meanwhile the stock market continues to have the drizzeling shitz while looking for the butt putty.

      5. I think we found the collusion.

      6. What is Sessions waiting for…His replacement? Wake up Trump, one of your main swamp critters is the one you appointed as the Attorney General.

      7. D.C. was built on a swamp with no plug to drain it by design. Hey let’s give the military another 150+ billion dollars to come up with a solution. Brilliant! Check out those huge dark saddlebags under the Mad Dog Mattis eyes, those would easily win a gold medal in Korea.

      8. Trump mentions AMERICA 80 times during his SOTU speech and a ACLU ripped him a new asshole for being a Nazi racist nationalist. Obama mentioned the word AMERICA several thousand times during his eight years, stepped on and shit on the Constitution, guilty of 7 million counts of not enforcing Federal laws, dropped over 100,000 bombs, and refused to respect the flag during all national anthems and …… nothing from the ACLU.

      9. Nothing will be done. They have gotten away with numerous crimes the average person would be put away in jail for. The entire system is corrupt and slowly sinking. The best one can do is to take care of themselves and their family.
