Gohmert: Mueller “Covering” Involvement In Clinton-Uranium Deal While Trying To Have A “Coup” Against Trump

Posted By Ian Schwartz
June 9, 2018

Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) said Saturday special counsel Robert Mueller is trying to cover up his involvement with the Uranium One deal that benefited the Clintons while “trying to have a coup against the president.”

REP. LOUIE GOHMERT (R-TX): Robert Mueller has done more damage during his 12 years as FBI director than any other — probably all directors put together...

He has wasted money right and left.

Amazingly, he’s hired people like [Andrew] Weissmann that worked with him and [Rod] Rosenstein in investigating the Russian illegal efforts to obtain our uranium which they quashed information in order to allow the sale to go through so that Hillary could get the $145 million for her foundation.

So it is really outrageous. He’s covering for himself at the same time he’s trying to have a coup against the president.

That’s what Bill Barr was hired for—To sweep this massive conspiracy of high treason under the carpet.

He was hired by PResident Trump so.........I don’t think so.

FBI uncovered Russian bribery plot before Obama administration approved controversial nuclear deal with Moscow

John Solomon and Alison Spann
Oct 17, 2017

Before the Obama administration approved a controversial deal in 2010 giving Moscow control of a large swath of American uranium, the FBI had gathered substantial evidence that Russian nuclear industry officials were engaged in bribery, kickbacks, extortion and money laundering designed to grow Vladimir Putin’s atomic energy business inside the United States, according to government documents and interviews.

Federal agents used a confidential U.S. witness working inside the Russian nuclear industry to gather extensive financial records, make secret recordings and intercept emails as early as 2009 that showed Moscow had compromised an American uranium trucking firm with bribes and kickbacks in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, FBI and court documents show.

They also obtained an eyewitness account — backed by documents — indicating Russian nuclear officials had routed millions of dollars to the U.S. designed to benefit former President Bill Clinton’s charitable foundation during the time Secretary of State Hillary Clinton served on a government body that provided a favorable decision to Moscow, sources told The Hill.

The racketeering scheme was conducted “with the consent of higher level officials” in Russia who “shared the proceeds” from the kickbacks, one agent declared in an affidavit years later.

Rather than bring immediate charges in 2010, however, the Department of Justice (DOJ) continued investigating the matter for nearly four more years, essentially leaving the American public and Congress in the dark about Russian nuclear corruption on U.S. soil during a period when the Obama administration made two major decisions benefiting Putin’s commercial nuclear ambitions. ...”

Intermediary Who Facilitated Corrupt Payments to a Russian Nuclear Energy Official Sentenced for Money Laundering Conspiracy

A New Jersey businessman was sentenced to a year and one day in prison for Conspiracy to Commit Money Laundering in connection with his role in arranging corrupt payments to influence the awarding of contracts with the Russian state-owned nuclear energy corporation.

The sentence was announced by Acting Assistant Attorney General Kenneth A. Blanco, Acting U.S. Attorney Stephen M. Schenning for the District of Maryland; Special Agent in Charge Angela Sigler of the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Inspector General (DOE-OIG); and Assistant Director in Charge Andrew G. Vale of the FBI’s Washington Field Office.

Boris Rubizhevsky, 67, of Closter, New Jersey was sentenced by U.S. District Judge Theodore D. Chuang to 12 months and one day in prison, followed by three years of supervised release.  The defendant was also ordered to forfeit $26,500.  Rubizhevsky pleaded guilty on June 15, 2015, to conspiracy to commit money laundering.

According to court documents, Rubizhevsky acted as an intermediary in connection with corrupt payments to co-conspirator Vadim Mikerin, the former director of the Pan American Department of JSC Techsnabexport (TENEX), a subsidiary of Russia’s State Atomic Energy Corporation and the sole supplier and exporter of Russian Federation uranium and uranium enrichment services to nuclear power companies worldwide. 

According to court documents, between October 2011 and February 2013, Rubizhevsky and Mikerin agreed to conceal corrupt payments being made from the United States to overseas bank accounts for the benefit of Mikerin, including a payment to a foreign bank account located in Latvia.  Rubizhevsky admitted that the conspirators used sham consulting agreements to disguise the corrupt payments. 

Mikerin previously admitted that he conspired with Rubizhevsky and others to transmit more than $2 million from Maryland, and elsewhere in the United States, to offshore shell company bank accounts located in Cyprus, Latvia and Switzerland with the intent to promote violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.  Mikerin pleaded guilty to money laundering conspiracy in August 2015, and was sentenced in December 2015 to 48 months in prison for his role in the money laundering scheme.

The DOE-OIG and FBI investigated the case.  Assistant Chiefs Christopher Cestaro and Ephraim Wernick and Trial Attorney Derek Ettinger of the Criminal Division’s Fraud Section and Assistant U.S. Attorneys David I. Salem and Michael T. Packard of the District of Maryland prosecuted the case.

... including his longstanding interest in preventing wrongful convictions

This is the biggest in-your-face comment to the hundreds of people he ruined and railroaded. Can't wait for Sydney Powell to comment on such a statement.

Everyone needs to understand that people versed in Federal Appeals of Rampant DOJ criminality would use Andrew as the poster-boy of wrongful prosecution and abuse of those under investigation.

The story of Mueller’s involvement with the Clinton’s and the now infamous sale of uranium to Russia goes back to 2006

This startling discovery came earlier this year showing that Hillary Clinton’s State Department began a process to turn over another portion of that uranium to the Russians in 2009

The Obama Administration’s Uranium One Scandal | Secretary of State Clinton with President Obama at a Cabinet meeting in 2012

A valid question is why did Obama and Clinton agree to provide this uranium, delivered by Mueller, to Russia in the first place?

And why the highly suspicious demand that the delivery take place on the Moscow airport tarmac?

The man who smuggled the uranium out of Russia in the 2006, Oleg Vladimirovich Khintsagov, was apprehended by authorities carrying 100 grams of highly enriched uranium tucked into a plastic bag in his tattered leather coat. A sample of the uranium captured during that sting operation was provided to the Russians who analyzed it and determined that it was indeed HEU.

The Russians did not ask for the uranium back, in fact the Russians worked hard to deny that the uranium came from Russia.

However, in 2009, the Obama Administration, led by Hillary Clinton, hand delivered HEU to Russia, even though Russia had already been given a sample.

There was no scientific reason to take the sample to them, so what other reason could there have been?

This delivery is especially pertinent since Mueller is leading this massive collusion investigation.

Why was this hidden from the public and Congress?

Why was the FBI informant on the case which involved the Clinton’s given a gag-order preventing him from speaking about it?

Hillary Clinton & Robert Mueller Linked in Russian Uranium Exchange

American Liberty PAC ^ | Jun 20, 2017 | Kirk

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton facilitated a uranium exchange with Russian law enforcement by former FBI Director (and current chief Deep State inquisitor) Robert Mueller.

The exchange was exposed via a recent Wikileaks publication of a secret cable between Hillary’s State Department and the Russian embassy.

Hillary sent Mueller to Moscow with orders to turn over a 10 gram sample of highly enriched uranium (HEU) which was obtained during a shadowy 2006 nuclear “sting” operation conducted in the Georgian Republic.

The ostensible reason for the transfer was to engender further trust between Russian and American law enforcement in the area of nuclear materials and to learn more about how to trace nuclear materials.

But when it comes to Hillary and Russian uranium interests, the shady Uranium One deal cannot pass unnoted.

There still has been no real investigation into how Hillary gave permission for a Russian company to acquire a quarter of the North American uranium reserves after Russian interests poured hundreds of millions into the Clinton Foundation and gave Bill Clinton six figure speaking fees.

At the very least, this exchange raises serious questions about the ability of Robert Mueller to do his job as special prosecutor on the Russian collusion charges since he already has connections to major figures in Russian law enforcement.

[Electric Graffiti]

Who knows why he was hired...It’s apparent to me that PDJT is not in control of the executive branch. Why hasn’t barr appointed a special counsel? Or PDJT for that matter?

[bray]

Can we pick a firing squad or do we have to wait for the trial?

[ptsal]

POST 13- pithy comment
thanks :)

[dsrtsage]

Did he have a (D) or an (R) after his name?

LOL.

Shh, you will wake the Kebler Elf from his slumber. /LOL

[LibertarianLiz]

...It’s apparent to me that PDJT is not in control of the executive branch

Is any POTUS in control of the Executive Branch any more? I think the Deep State runs everything.

[OKSooner]

That’s pretty good.

[OKSooner]

BTW who is the young lady?

[sarge83]

Him and Mulehead should have gone to jail for their criminal behavior in the ENRON case. Corrupt and rotten to the core and they are the pride of our DOJ/FBI. If they will lie to a FISA court judge numerous times and use that lie to justify a special prosecutor what won’t the DOJ/FBI do?

[FreedomFtr]

Barr doesn’t need assign a special council. He has quite enough evidence on everyone to set up a ton of Grand Juries.
