A battle royal is about to erupt, Wall Street analyst Charles Ortel told Sputnik, commenting on The Daily Caller's report that ex-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's private server was hacked. According to Ortel, the Clinton email case deserves further scrutiny despite the FBI's denial of the alleged intrusion.
The FBI has rebuked Donald Trump's tweet saying that Hillary Clinton's unsecured email servers were reportedly accessed by Chinese hackers; however, the agency has not yet clarified the point whether or not it had been informed by the Intelligence Community Inspector General about foreign intrusion of Clinton's private server back in 2015.
Hillary Clinton’s Emails, many of which are Classified Information, got hacked by China. Next move better be by the FBI & DOJ or, after all of their other missteps (Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Ohr, FISA, Dirty Dossier etc.), their credibility will be forever gone!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) 29 августа 2018 г. "An FBI spokeswoman refused to confirm if Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) officials — including Frank Rucker, its chief investigator — briefed top bureau officials about evidence of penetration of Clinton's private server by a Chinese government intelligence operation," Richard Pollock, an investigative journalist with The Daily Caller, reported on August 29.
FBI Refutes Clinton's Private Server Was Hacked By China He broke the news about the alleged Chinese intrusion on August 27, citing two sources informed on the matter. According to The Daily Caller's interlocutors, a Chinese firm embedded a malicious code into Clinton's private server and gained access to virtually all ex-secretary of state emails, including top secret government documents.
Earlier, during a July hearing with FBI official Peter Strzok, Republican Rep. Louie Gohmert of Texas pointed out that the government watchdog had found that nearly all of Clinton's emails were send to a "foreign entity," adding that it was "unrelated to Russia." He further said that the ICIG presented the finding to FBI agent Strzok, but that the latter had apparently swept the valuable information under the rug.
Hillary's conscious decision to violate secure communication protocols was predictably exploited by China (& probably other hostile nations). The highly classified information she received was certainly compromised & probably exploited

Speaking to Sputnik, Charles Ortel, a Wall Street analyst and investigative journalist who has been looking into potential fraud cases involving the Clinton Foundation over the last few years, expressed confidence that the truth would find its way out.
What's Behind FBI's Stance on Alleged Hack?

One of the reasons behind the FBI's apparent unwillingness to confirm or deny whether it was briefed by the ICIG on the matter "may be that there is an active investigation ongoing," the analyst suggested. Having referred to the publicly available FBI vault documents concerning Clinton's "emailgate," he explained that "the FBI has specific procedural requirements for all kinds of investigative work and maintains extensive records beyond those available to the public."
"These records should explain what truly happened with the FBI investigation that was opened on July 10, 2015 by a report issued July 6, 2015 when Intelligence Community Inspector General McCullough issued his findings," Ortel presumed.
According to the investigative journalist, it looks rather strange that ex-President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party pushed Clinton's candidacy hard, although the Clinton email scandal erupted in March 2015, a month before she threw her hat into the ring.

It was found out that the former secretary of state had used private unsecured email servers to conduct government business from 2009 to 2013 and handed a larger part of her emails over to the State Department only in 2014, reportedly withholding about 30,000 emails.
According to Ortel, it was similarly surprising that some FBI officials had apparently turned a blind eye to the ICIG's damning findings in 2015.
"In July 2015, many in the FBI and likely many in the Obama Administration knew that Hillary Clinton had serious outstanding 'issues', yet Barack Obama and Democrats pushed her candidacy hard, including letting her 'rig' the primaries in her favor, beginning with a formal agreement through law firm Perkins Coie giving her campaign special privileges," he underscored.
It appears that "one reason Obama and Democrats did this is that the Clintons had even more damaging information on the Obamas and their allies that all agreed would be kept hidden through, and after a Hillary Clinton victory in November 2016," the journalist presumed, adding that Trump's win had obviously spoiled their supposed game and paved the way for potential large-scale exposure.
Ortel has drawn attention to the fact that US mainstream media and NGOs, including Media Matters, backed by liberal billionaire George Soros, vehemently denied the alleged hack of Clinton's private server by a foreign entity, labeling it as "fake news" and "conspiracy."
"Soros, Media Matters and many other left-leaning 'charities' that are either improperly organized or partisan 'political action organizations' have much to lose once President Trump gains full control over the Justice Department and the IRS," he said. "As a guess, Media Matters and Soros are attacking to muddy the waters in the public's mind, thereby delaying the now inevitable prosecutions as long as possible."
Besides, the potential exposure of the Clinton Foundation's alleged fraud is still hanging above the heads of Hillary and Bill Clinton like the sword of Damocles, Ortel remarked.
'The Minute Clinton Set Up Her Private Server to Conduct Gov't Business, It Was Crime'
Meanwhile, prominent American attorney Sidney Powell told Fox News that "the minute Hillary set up her private email server to receive government emails, it was a crime."
#DrainTheSwamp- @SidneyPowell1: The minute Hillary set up her private email server to receive govt emails, it was a crime. This should’ve been investigated & should still be investigated. DOJ & FBI have done nothing but run a massive cover-up operation. #MAGA #TrumpTrain #Dobbs pic.twitter.com/dP5zqVuR66

"Sidney Powell is a brave and wonderful person who is absolutely correct," the analyst underscored, referring to 18 US Code 793.
"Here it is important to note that certain subparagraphs starting with (c) appear not to require that persons breaking the law have 'intent'," he elaborated. "Considering the known record, I believe that Hillary Clinton, her associates, and whoever may have approved the absurd arrangements to let 100 percent of State Department business be conducted using private servers and non-secure electronic devices have exposures assuming fair reading of the statute."
Ortel believes that many parties inside and outside the US know "important truths regarding the gross criminal activities of the Clintons and their allies." It appears that the Trump administration is "preparing ground for prosecutions of these corrupt Deep State actors."
"The stage has been set for many months, and I fully expect a battle royal to erupt whose resolution will have historic consequences around the world, not simply inside America," the Wall Street analyst concluded.

Items from Clinton Foundation’s Dealings with Russian Uranium
Independent Journal Review | April 2015 | Michael Hausum
FR Posted by Beautiful_Gracious_Skies
The New York Times April 2015 published an article about the Clinton Foundation, its receipt of millions of dollars from foreign governments and other interests, and the U.S. government’s involvement in Russia’s stated goal to expand its control of the world’s uranium market.
All while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State.
The NY Times didn’t reach a conclusion, but one question looms very large: As Secretary of State, did Hillary influence an international deal giving a Russian company 20% ownership of America’s uranium production, in return for millions of dollars of cash donations to the Clinton Foundation?
Here is a list of 11 questionable items forming a chain of events:
1. September of 2005: Canadian Frank Giustra visits Kazakhstan with Bill Clinton. Days later, his company UrAsia wins a major uranium deal with the country.
2. 2006: Giustra donates $31 million to the Clinton Foundation.
3. February 2007: UrAsia merges with Uranium One and expands into the U.S..
4. June 2008: Russian atomic agency Rosatom begins talks to acquire Uranium One.
5. 2008 to 2010: Uranium One and UrAsia investors donate $8.65 million to Clinton Foundation.
6. June 2009: Rosatom acquires 17% of Uranium One.
7. 2010 to 2011: Millions more donated by Uranium One investors to Clinton Foundation.
8. June 2010: Rosatom requests Committee on Foreign Investment (of which the State Department is a member and its approval is needed) to approve a majority ownership in Uranium One, PROMISING NOT TO PURCHASE 100% of it, NOR TAKE IT PRIVATE.
9. June 2010: Bill Clinton receives $500,000 to speak at a conference held by the Russian investment bank involved in the Rosatom transactions.
10. October 2010: Committee APPROVES Rosatom’s request to ACQUIRE A MAJORITY SHARE in Uranium One.
11. January 2013: Rosatom PURCHASES REMAINDER of Uranium One and takes it PRIVATE!.
The origins of the story were reported in the NY Times in 2008 by Jo Becker, a co-author of the recent NYT piece: Unlike established competitors, Mr. Giustra was a newcomer to uranium mining in Kazakhstan, a former Soviet republic. But what his fledgling company lacked in experience, it made up for in connections. Accompanying Giustra on his luxuriously appointed MD-87 jet that day was a former president of the United States, Bill Clinton....
Within two days, corporate records show that Mr. Giustra also came up a winner when his company signed preliminary agreements giving it the right to buy into three uranium projects controlled by Kazakhstan’s state-owned uranium agency, Kazatomprom. The monster deal stunned the mining industry, turning an unknown shell company into one of the world’s largest uranium producers in a transaction ultimately worth tens of millions of dollars to Mr. Giustra, analysts said.
Just months after the Kazakh pact was finalized, Mr. CLINTON’S charitable foundation received its own windfall: a $31.3 MILLION DONATION FROM MR. GUISTRA that had remained a SECRET until he acknowledged it last month. There are intricacies and subtleties to this story that aren’t evident in the timeline.
For example, when Hillary assumed the job as Secretary of State, she assented to a limitation of the foundation’s international activities and agreed to disclose contributors. It appears, at a minimum, there was incomplete follow-through upon these assurances. Furthermore, those involved in the transactions have denied that any special privileges were sought and that the donations were completely unrelated.

all in the same class of reporting?
So are we if we set our minds to it and we will have righteousness on our side.
With you, just want to see it done and a lot of heads roll, no matter who gets the credit. Ultimately, it is in Trump’s hand.
Wow....aren’t we thankful that unhealthy hunk of a witch didn’t steal the election?
Some were positing that her body double was sitting in for her, at the NoName/Wellstone 2 production.
I haven’t seen any pics of her from NoName’s shat show, so I have no idea.
Sputnik is a news agency, news website platform and radio broadcast service established by the Russian government-owned news agency Rossiya Segodnya.
Great! Now we’re getting official Russian propaganda posted at FR now ...
You have an article from the Russian side reporting via named source what we on the right want our president to do.
The analysis would result in a stronger Trump / a greater Russian adversary.
Can’t just discount that; not without some attempt at analysis and response.
I would sincerely hope so. Hope it “blossoms” soon!
.
What did you consider “canned” about Liz’ reply?
It looked informational to me.
I agree.
not propaganda
the story does not serve their interest
it serves the right in America to know what we can’t get from our own (really communist) networks
All of her deleted emails still exist on Chinese govt servers. Her nefarious dealings may soon be revealed. The FBI doesn't want us to know what they let her get away with.
I imagine a lot of people are fed up with the constant lying and this coup attempt. Especially from the Democrats.
A few Republicans still need to be ousted from office, if necessary. And it most certainly is with a few of them.
Liz always does an awesome job and has fantastic information.
