WASHINGTON (Reuters) - White House Chief of Staff John Kelly said on Monday a special counsel should be appointed to investigate Democrats over a uranium deal during the Obama administration and a dossier compiled on Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign. White House Chief of Staff John Kelly speaks during a daily briefing at the White House in Washington, U.S., October 19, 2017. REUTERS/Yuri Gripas I think probably as a layman looking at this kind of thing we need to find someone who is very, very objective who can get to the bottom of these accusations, Kelly said in an interview on Fox News. A special counsel would be appointed by the Justice Department. Republicans in Congress last week launched an investigation into an Obama-era deal in which a Russian company bought a Canadian firm that owned some 20 percent of U.S. uranium supplies. Some Republicans have said Hillary Clintons State Department approved the deal after her husbands charitable foundation received a $145 million donation. The New York Times has reported that Clinton, a Democrat who lost to Republican Trump in the 2016 election, did not participate in the decision. Republicans have also raised questions about whether Democrats funded a dossier put together during last years presidential campaign that detailed accusations about Trumps ties to Russia.

Kevin Spacey says, “Oooooh, pick me!”
Doesn’t the DOJ report to Trump? Don’t “call for” one, appoint one. Republicans are such wimps
Americans used to believe that the FBI and the DOJ were objective.
Apparently thats no longer true.

after her husbands charitable foundation..
So now its all Bills fault.

Who’s job is it to appoint a special council? Everyone is demanding that it be done...but nobody moves. WTF??
Exactly! The DOJ is part of Trump’s administration. Sessions answers to the president. All Trump has to do is direct Sessions to name a special prosecutor. So do it!
Pfl
Unreasonable since he was in the back room di**ing bimbos. I am serious about this. Hildebeast wore the pants in the family, well er, I mean she ran the show.
Now that is funny! Let’s go to discovery.
Russia bought a Canadian company that already owned 20% of our uranium resources??? How did the Canadian company get ownership of those resources? Could the US have stopped the Canadian company from selling to Russia?
Whoa! I hadn’t seen that. The flak is heaviest over the target, so Tucker must be hitting them hard.
That deserves its own thread.
I think is in response to San Fran Nan's latest illogical verbal atrocity. Thanks smileyface.
Is this real?
“So now its all Bills fault.”
Since Chelsea is in charge of the foundation, go after her. That would put Billary in an untenable position.
That would put Billary in an untenable position.
I have no doubt theyd toss Chelsea under the bus if thats what it took to save their own miserable skins.

No need for a special counsel, just have US attorneys and the DOJ do their regular jobs.
Unless of course, the FBI and DOJ are admitting that current employees might have broken the law in the Uranium One coverup...
Trump is beginning to look like the old man on the porch who yells at passing kids. Stop tweeting, pointing the finger, and whining about it...
DO IT!!!
