Russian Scandal: As the old saying goes, it's not the crime, it's the cover-up. That's certainly true with the growing scandal over the Russians' extortion racket in the U.S., possible bribes to the Bill and Hillary Clinton Foundation, and the FBI's curious decision not to reveal the Russians' activities and ties to the Obama administration.
This week, IBD discussed new reports from the Daily Caller, The Hill and Circa.com, of how the Russians, through their state nuclear company Rosatom, engaged in a campaign of bribery, extortion, money laundering and racketeering to gain control over U.S. nuclear assets in the private sector.
Aided by an American informant, the FBI gathered a mountain of evidence that showed, for instance, that Russia had corrupted an American uranium trucking company through bribes.
But that was the least of it. As The Hill reported, eyewitness accounts and documents indicate that the Russian nuclear pirates spent millions of dollars to "benefit former President Bill Clinton's charitable foundation."

I agree. I thought it was an odd statement to make in this case.
Later
The very act of seeking permission seems like it is sufficient documentation that someone, even a low-life Clinton, knew there was "risk" in his plan.
Clearly, the spin meisters and the Dept. of Just Us are ignoring the obvious.
I have to wonder...
Are they really so uninformed or are they deliberately looking the other way?
I think some of each. At the low level, they are uninformed. But the liberal “elite” (aside from a few dolts like Maxine Waters) know exactly what is going on and pretend they don’t.

just to give you an idea of how the low info uninformed voters see it:
yesterday at happy hour, I was sitting at happy hour sipping a cold one when the network news came on the TVs.
a buddy setting next to me was commenting on what an a-hole trump is for making the phone call allegedly disrespecting the mother of the US soldier killled in Niger.
I called it a fake news reporting.
his come back was “how can it be fake news when all the networks are reporting it”
so basically the MSM all gets their DNC talking points everyday & march of to their news studios to read the same script.
>> how can it be fake news when all the networks are reporting it
Facepalm.
We have to keep fighting, keep educating. Sigh.
So far all the criminals have made 10’s of millions if not billions for the crimes they have committed.
I think it’s quite likely that the entire demonrat party is nothing but a Russian op and has been for decades.
