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.

The NDA is irrelevant. An NDA cannot prevent a government employee from providing information on fraud, waste or abuse to congressional committees.

What gets me is that we knew most of the information about the uranium deal years ago. We just didn't know particulars. But, now that the lamestreamers are waking up it is somehow a big deal.

I think what is happening is that some in the media have realized they can't protect Hillary anymore. Her carefully built media security is having to face the fact that she is a goner.

Their dyke is leaking.

Is there justice in USA? Will the informant survive? Will DC allow him to testify?

I believe the media is out of the loop, which means that Billary will be free to spin it all as a partisan witch hunt. Whatever. At this point, the MSM has no credibility, and their spin will not be enough to keep the top balanced.

WTF? Congress has absolute subpoena power. Why would this be a "hope"? Oh right, the Repub congress is full of gutless RINO's.
