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.

“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”.

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.

One theory:  Mueller sponsored the investigation, but was told by Obama/Clinton/Holder to shut up and play ball so the uranium deal could proceeed.    Perhaps he is being offered immunity now so he can bring the whole corrupt thing down?

That’s as plausible as anything in this disgusting mess. If nothing comes of this, we are truly lost.

I still have hope that Sessions is doing the right thing and is getting everything in order.

I believe the story is that the informant was an exec of one of the uranium companies involved, became aware of activity that he didn’t at all like, and informed the FBI or a federal prosecutor.

Probably the investigation was launched and found results before higher ups realized what was going on.

Here’s a story indicating that Congress even some in the FBI and DOJ were out of the loop about the Clinton connection:

Congress to informant: “Please State your name”

Informant: My Name is......

Congress: OK sir, thank you for your time- You can go home now.

thought this would eventually be allowed once due diligence was satisfied by Justice.

No kidding! That individual’s life expectancy just took a nose dive!


While maybe far fetched, the idea actually came to me this morning that Las Vegas could somehow be tied to this person testifying.

Also the cover-up of Extortion 17.

Good one. That is a for sure Special Counsel. All kinds of possibilities on that one. Did Obama let the enemy know? Why were that many SEALS and SF guys on that one chopper? Was there other air cover? Lots of questions.

This looks like one of Dan Rather's documents.

Let me guess, there is a website that generates old documents with authentic looking, old fonts. All for free.

INFOWARS is wrong about the JFK assassination but it looks like these guys have Hillary primed and ready to be arrested.

This is getting interesting.

So now there is a race. Can the swamp get rid of Trump before he starts pulling out the threads that will unravel the Clinton/Bush families?

What lengths will they go do in order to do so?

And more importantly, how many are on Trump’s side in the various agencies?

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

Or, put another way: is an NDA concealing a criminal act, say murder (or conspiracy to commit murder) enforceable or legitimate?

The funny thing is he could take a huge chunk of the Swamp out in one fell swoop if I'm right about the Iran Deal being provably treason (link)… or at least force a huge chunk of the corrupt to focus their resources (ie money, lawyers, and attention) there.
