Republicans see tables turned as Dems face fresh Russia controversies
FoxNews ^ | 24-October-2017 | FoxNews

After months of batting back accusations of collusion with Moscow in last year’s presidential campaign, Republicans say Democrats are the ones who now have “some explaining to do” as fresh developments raise questions about their own Russia connections.

First came reports that the FBI knew about a Russian bribery plot tied to nuclear energy interests in the U.S. well before the Obama administration OK’d a mining company sale to a Russian firm, giving it partial control over American uranium reserves.

My dream is that there is an email from Hillary to a Russian essentially saying: “Look, you don’t get the uranium until I get the check. Quit stalling and send the money, or this deal is off.”

Once the Clintons are forced to make public EVERY DONATION MADE TO THE CLINTON FOUNDATION and the AMOUNT they gave - - and WHEN, we'll all see the pattern. It'll be pay to play for decades...

I'm down with that. If he does, the dems will howl but so what.

Or...if the heat gets too hot, he may wrap up the investigation, fold the tent and hope it all goes away. That's probably their best move.

Is anyone aware of this story, apart from people who watch Fox News (or read sites like Free Republic)?

Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity have also been covering this story. Tucker had some Democrat flak on last night trying to explain it all away but made mincemeat of his arguments.

You betcha it’s there. Unless some Clinton/Obama operative erased it — which should be documented as to access.

GOPe arm of the UniParty ought not to gloat. I suspect some of em were in on “the deal” themselves. There’s nNothing quite like lining your pockets with the monies of hard-working, tax-paying Americans...it’s like “free money”. They ALL need to investigated, tried and convicted.

If that’s all true, Sessions will have played a world class game of rope-a-dope.

The gagged FBI informant needs to TESTIFY! He needs to go LIVE on national TV, where it can’t be denied, edited after the fact, or redacted. At worst, he’d sit in jail a week or two, if some jerk “judge” sent him there, till Trump pardoned him!

FOX always billed itself as "fair and balanced", not as "Conservative".

It was never a Conservative news station, but as you listed it does allow Conservative points of view.

Five breaking news stories yesterday. Just for the heck of it I taped Maddow just to see how she would spin them. She didn't. She didn't mention them!

She was more concerned about Tillerson in Afghanistan and where they met, Kabul or Bagram. Said the clock was photo-shopped, so he lied about where he met the Afghan government folks. That's all they got? A few other no news items in the first ten minutes, then I turned it off. Didn't have the fortitude to watch the whole thing. I'll leave that up to Hannity's crew.
