Hillary Clinton facing questions over involvement in Uranium One sale
WMUR 9 (ABC) ^ | June 23, 2015 | By Josh McElveen

MANCHESTER, N.H. —New problems have arisen for the Hillary Clinton campaign following an exclusive interview with WMUR that aired on Sunday.

The controversy involves the sale of a Canadian company, Uranium One, to the Russian government during her time as secretary of state.

Critics said her answers surrounding it pose major questions.

The question posed to Clinton during the interview with News 9 Political Director Josh McElveen focused on big money paid in the form of a $500,000 speaking fee to her husband, former President Bill Clinton, by a Kremlin bank, one of the players involved in the Uranium One deal.

Her answer is sparking major questions about her honesty and leadership.

"There's no basis for any of that. The timing doesn't work. It happened in terms of the work for the foundation before I was secretary of state,” Clinton said in the interview. "There were nine government agencies that that had to sign off on that deal. I was not personally involved because that’s not something (the) secretary of state did.

The question itself was born of allegations made by the conservative author of the best-selling but highly critical book, "Clinton Cash," and on Tuesday, author Peter Shwiezer blasted Clinton’s answers on CloseUP in an op-ed that has gone national, insisting his timelines are correct, and that at the time of the sale of Uranium One, Clinton was negotiating directly with the Russian government over civilian nuclear technology in the so-called Russian reset. . .

She only lies when her lips move or she is breathing.

I hope she talks a lot more because every time she talks she opens herself up to more and more cross checking.

She says its debunked because “the timing is off.”
But, as the application to buy the uranium co. was filed, the Clinton crime charity got 2mm from the co. CEO. And after approval, paid Bill 500k to speak.
Hmmmmm

Her answer does raise some questions. Was her answer a bunch of little lies or were they all melded together into one big lie?

Donations to the Clinton Foundation, and a Russian Uranium Takeover / By WILSON ANDREWS APRIL 22, 2015

Uranium investors’ efforts to buy mining assets in Kazakhstan and the United States led to a takeover bid by a Russian state-owned energy company. The investors gave millions to the Clinton Foundation over the same period, while Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s office was involved with approving the Russian bid.
