Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation as Russians Pressed for Control of Uranium Company

[CosmicCowboy]

• Ian Telfer, who was Uranium One's chairman at the time it was being taken over by Rosatom, did donate money to the Clinton Foundation. However, he told the Financial Post that he committed those funds to the Foundation in 2008, "before Uranium One had any negotiations with the Russians, and the donations he has made since then were part of that initial pledge." Hillary Clinton also did not become secretary of state until 2009.
• Frank Giustra, a Canadian businessman who the Times noted also donated to the Clinton Foundation and who owned the predecessor to Uranium One before its sale to the Russians, sold his personal stake in the company in 2007. The proposed sale of Uranium One occurred in 2010. Giustra himself released a statement criticizing the Times' reporting, calling it "wildly speculative, innuendo-laced," and inaccurate, and noting that contrary to the Times' claim that Bill Clinton had flown with him to conclude a stage in the Uranium deal, "Bill Clinton had nothing to do with" that purchase.
• The State Department only had one vote on the nine-member Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) that approved the deal. Other agencies, including the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security, Energy, Commerce, and Justice, also weighed in.
• The chairman of the CFIUS is the Treasury secretary, not secretary of state.
• Rosatom had to get approval from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, which is an independent agency outside of the secretary of state's influence.
• Utah's local nuclear regulator also had to sign off on the deal, as it involved mills in the state.
• Former assistant secretary of state Jose Fernandez, who was the State Department's principal representative on CFIUS, said, "Secretary Clinton never intervened with me on any CFIUS matter."

pfartin, you're full of bull .

As usual, I'm not defending the left, I'm attacking you rightwingnuts and your bull , bogus attacks. And this Clinton Cash attack by a hired, notorious hit man with a long history of bull , has collapsed from the weight of its own LIES and innuendo.

Those of US who are WELL INFORMED, know the book as been sent all over the media, who have read it, and trashed it.

Benghazi is around because of all the unanswered questions.

Which questions have not been answered, SnC?

As for the OP scandal of the week, this one sounded worse than it turned out to be.

All that's left is for the Republicans to overplay their Benghazi hand again and ensure Clinton's victory in 2016.

(so boutons shared the Daily Kos advance debunking of CLINTON CASH; if he hadn't, there would be something wrong.)

"boots rants all GMO must be bad"

true. prove otherwise.

You posted about a new cellulotic process that might be used to make alcohol from just stalks and no grain a while back. You know the bacteria used in the beginning stages of this process? GMO bacteria
You were excited about this as I am. We could produce fuel from waste wood and sawdust if we get this right.
Should we dump the research because it involves a GMO "bug"?

You are such a damn fool...
