Just for the Hill of it.

As reported by The Gateway Pundit‘s Jim Hoft on Friday, Justice Department officials in the District of Maryland announced Mark Lambert of Mount Airy, Maryland was indicted on 11 counts related to “bribery, kickbacks and money laundering.” The charges stem from an alleged scheme to bribe Vadim Mikerin, a Russian official at JSC Techsnabexport (TENEX).
Robert Mueller’s FBI had been investigating the scheme since at least 2008 – with retiring Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe assigned to the ongoing investigation which was hidden from the Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States (CFIUS). Had they known, the committee never would have approved the Uranium One deal with TENEX’s parent company, Rosatom.
Four individuals were eventually prosecuted and given plea agreements after the Uranium One deal was approved. The prosecuting DOJ attorneys? Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein and top Mueller investigator in the Trump-Russia probe, Andrew Weissman – who praised former acting Attorney General Sally Yates for defying Trump.
The Hill‘s John Solomon reported that the Obama Justice Department failed to call on the deal’s secret informant, William D. Campbell, when it came time to charging former Russian uranium industry executive Vadim Mikerinn.
“While he was Maryland’s chief federal prosecutor, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s office failed to interview the undercover informant in the FBI’s Russian nuclear bribery case before it filed criminal charges in the case in 2014, officials told The Hill,” reports Solomon.
“I’ve never heard of such a case unless the victim is dead. I’ve never heard of prosecutors making a major case and not talking to the victim before you made it, especially when he was available to them through the FBI,” Alan Dershowitz told The Hill.

The corruption at the upper levels of government were extremely rampant under obummer and the gang. The fish rots from the top. We have been finding out upper level FBI and DOJ people were already rotten when obummer got there so it didn’t take much to exploit that and nurture it which the obongo Admin did and brought in all kinds of criminal conspirators. Think ValJar, Holder, Lynch, Podesta, Clinton, the whole cabal.
What happened to Chris Christie...I had hope for him but didn’t he piss off Trump somehow?
Just for the Hill of it.

“20. The SAME Judge Theodore Chuang has just been assigned to the Mark Lambert case. No - I am NOT kidding:”
