FBI Informant Claiming Uranium One Scoop Cleared from Gag Order
Breitbart.com ^ | 25 Oct 2017 | Ian Mason

Posted on 10/25/2017 8:03:56 PM PDT by Rockitz

The Department of Justice cleared the FBI informant – who brought the Uranium One scandal roaring back into national headlines with his claim, through his lawyer, to have information about the Clinton Foundation’s role – to testify before Congress Wednesday night. The informant worked undercover to investigate bribery and intrigue in the Russian nuclear industry during the Obama administration and was, until Wednesday, bound by a gag order from speaking about what he knew.

According to sources at the Department of Justice, the informant is now cleared to testify about a wide range of issues including, specifically, the Clinton Foundation. In a statement, DOJ spokesman Ian Prior told media outlets:

As of tonight, the Department of Justice has authorized the informant to disclose to the Chairmen and Ranking Members of the Senate Committee on the Judiciary, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, as well as one member of each of their staffs, any information or documents he has concerning alleged corruption or bribery involving transactions in the uranium market, including but not limited to anything related to Vadim Mikerin, Rosatom, Tenex, Uranium One, or the Clinton Foundation.

It is not yet clear what type of hearing will come from the DOJ’s decsion, but congressional leaders like Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-IA) had made clear they hoped the informant could testify.

So does Jeff Sessions finally get a bonus point for this?

************

I’d like to hope so. But I am wondering why it is Congressional committees that brought him and his information forward. I would seem that if the DOJ was doing its job, they would already be pursuing these crimes via grand juries, etc.

If I understand the situation, this informant has had this evidence available to FBI/DOJ for YEARS. Why didn’t Sessions get this moving ahead of Congress?

Better add some sharks with laser beams attached to their foreheads for backup, though.

There is something that confuses me about this. Why would the FBI hire this guy to work undercover if they were part of this whole sordid affair? The FBI seems to be involved in this - I don’t understand why they’d want someone working undercover to discover what they knew full well they were doing.

Hillary and Bill indictment watch- Day 1.


I can’t count the number of times I’ve thought “this is it, they’re finally going to go to jail!” They have gotten away with felonies EVERY time. I’m not counting my chickens.

And his Testimony will be behind close door. Within two weeks of testifying, it will all be forgotten... We live in a Banana Republic, the sooner you accept that, the easier it gets.

Because if true...this guy would not only merely dead, he'd be really most sincerely dead.

Terminally dead with extreme prejudice.

I vote for numerous Special Counsels for the following areas:

Hillary - email/server scandal.

Hillary and Bill - the Clinton Foundation

Hillary, Bill and Obama - Uranium One

Hillary and the DNC - The Dossier Debacle

DWS and the Awans

Bill and Lynch - The Tarmac Meeting

Susan Rice, Samantha Power, Obama and others - The Unmasking Scandal

Hillary and Obama - Weaponizing the FBI, CIA, NSA and other agencies to get information, produce fake news about and attack political opponents.

Hillary and Obama - Benghazi Scandal and death of four Americans.

The CPUSA, Antifa, BLM, MIM (Maoist International Movement), and various other communist front groups in America.

Also, restart the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) and closely examine the 76 members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus.

I was wondering the same thing. It seems that there are people inside the FBI that are working against each other and there are a lot of loose canons mingling around. I don’t think I put that very well but I’m confused, too.

“Praying to God for his safety”.

He certainly needs prayers.

Can the FBI be trusted to protect him?

That’s a thought.

The FBI and the whole government is utterly corrupt.
