The answer to the question (or investigation) is:

Are the allegations about democrats? Are Bill and Hillary democrats?

Well then...

Investigation goes nowhere, and the investigation is just a partisan hit-job.

CIRCA 2019 DOJ Finds Letter Ordering Scrutiny of Uranium One, Hillary Clinton
msn.com ^ | 3/9/2019 | Betsy Woodruff / FR Posted by Aquamarine

After it claimed no such document existed, the Justice Department Finds Letter Ordering Scrutiny of Uranium One, Hillary Clintonf sen msn.com ^ | 3/9/2019 | Betsy Woodruff Posted on 03/09/2019 7:17:55 PM PST by Aquamarine After it claimed no such document existed, the Justice Department just unearthed a letter Matt Whitaker delivered to the Utah U.S. attorney directing a review of how the department handled the Clinton Foundation and the Uranium One issues.

Then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions wrote the letter on Nov. 22, 2017 for Utah U.S. Attorney John Huber. Matt Whitaker, who was Sessions’ chief of staff at the time, emailed the letter to Huber that day, writing, “As we discussed.”

He also sent Huber a copy of a letter the Justice Department’s Congressional affairs chief to the chairman of

the House Judiciary Committee on Nov. 13 of that year. The existence of a letter documenting Sessions’ directive that the DOJ revisit probes of Trump’s top political foe is a surprise because a department lawyer said in court last year that senior officials insisted it didn’t exist.

The liberal nonprofit American Oversight obtained the letter through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request they filed on Nov. 22, 2017––the same day Whitaker emailed Sessions’ letter to Huber..... (Excerpt) Read more at thedailybeast.com ...


Back in mid-2018, we were saying that the UTAH AG Sessions appointed (and can seat a grand jury),
just so happens to be in the jurisdiction where much of the Clintons’ Uranium One deal was centered.
Longshot, but THAT UTAH GUY could nab even MUELLER and cancel the insurance policy.........

This gambit by Bill Clinton (meddling in a foreign election) got the Russian uranium scheme going. Bill's calculated handshake was a bonanza for the Kazahk president's re-election. Nazarbayev responded in kind and signed-off on the initial phase of Russia's takeover of US uranium assets.

Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev greets former
president Clinton in Almaty on September 6, 2005.

CIRCA 2015 A Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporter claims that former President Bill Clinton falsely denied hosting a meeting with Kazakh officials when she tried to write a story that involved his foundation several years ago.

Jo Becker, who works on the newspaper's investigative desk, said Clinton only confirmed the meeting took place after she informed him there were photographs.

Clinton's role in a deal that involved Kazakhstan, the Russian government, and a man who donated millions to the president's charitable foundation were detailed in a story Becker published on Thursday.

That article revisited some of her earlier reporting and included information from the upcoming book "Clinton Cash," which is generating widespread headlines amid a flurry of reports suggesting it will raise serious questions about Clinton's family foundation.

The donor in question is Canadian mining executive Frank Giustra, a longtime friend of the former president who has given tens of millions to the Clinton Foundation in the past few years. (A couple of hours after the NYT story was published, Giustra issued a defiant statement. We've included that below.)

Becker initially wrote about the February 2007 meeting between Clinton, Giustra, and executives from the state-owned nuclear company Kazatomprom in 2008. The gathering took place at Clinton's home in Chappaqua, New York.

"When I first contacted both the Clinton foundation — Mr. Clinton's spokesman — and Mr. Giustra, they denied any such meeting ever took place," Becker recalled in footage aired by Fox News on Thursday.

However, Becker said Clinton and Giustra both changed their stories after she confronted them with evidence to the contrary.

"And then when we told them, 'Well we already talked to the head of Kazatomprom, who not only told us all about the meeting, but actually has a picture of him and Bill at the home in Chappaqua, and that he proudly displayed on his office wall.' They then acknowledged that yes, the meeting had taken place," Becker continued in the television interview.

The purpose of the meeting, then Kazatomprom President Moukhtar Dzhakishev told The Times, was to discuss Kazakhstan potentially buying a 10% stake in Westinghouse, a US nuclear company. Becker's 2008 story also noted one of Giustra's companies secured a deal to buy uranium deposits from Kazatomprom in 2005.

That agreement was made after Clinton accompanied Giustra on a trip to Kazakhstan. During the trip, Giustra and Clinton met with Kazakhstan's President Nursultan Nazarbayev.

Clinton issued a public statement praising the Kazakh leader despite his questionable, antidemocratic record. The Times called the praise a "propaganda coup" for Nazarbayev. (he later "won relection" w/ an unbelievable 90% of the vote)

"Just months after the Kazakh pact was finalized, Mr. Clinton's charitable foundation received its own windfall: a $31.3 million donation from Mr. Giustra that had remained a secret until he acknowledged it last month. The gift, combined with Mr. Giustra’s more recent and public pledge to give the William J. Clinton Foundation an additional $100 million, secured Mr. Giustra a place in Mr. Clinton’s inner circle," wrote Becker and another reporter, Don Van Natta.

A spokesperson for the Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership told Business Insider they are "working on a formal statement" in response to a request for comment on Thursday. Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership is an initiative of the Clinton Foundation that was cofounded by Clinton and Giustra in 2007. A Clinton Foundation spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment.

===============================

Thoughtful Americans are asking: we know the Clintons got a $145 million bribe payable to the Clinton Foundation, but how much did Russia actually pay the US for the uranium?

Anybody ever see a figure on that?

What happened to the cash for the actual uranium sale? Did that money go into OFA--Obama’s slush fund for revolution? Or maybe into some offshore accounts?......

Particularly interesting is that immediately after exiting the white House, the Obama's traveled far and wide in such a short time -- their itinerary included Indonesia, Bali, French Polynesia; all those out-of-the-way places w/ infamous offshore banks that have numbered accounts.

THIS WE KNOW: the conniving Clintons took uranium.....a national strategic US asset......and sold it for their personal gain.

That smells like the infamous Teapot Dome scandal. Law professor Jonathan Turley said the Clintons uranium scheme .... "could be criminal." Turley (or somebody) needs to address the Clinton criminality in this context.

Billionaire Giustra received $23 million of your tax dollars from Hillary's State Dept.

Canadian mining magnate Frank Giustra is one of the Clinton Foundation’s largest donors. Giustra's $100 million contributions go directly: (1) to the tax-exempt Clinton Foundation, and, (2) to the Canada-based "Clinton-Giustra Enterprise Partnership." The "Clinton-Giustra Enterprise Partnership" in turn sends money to the Clinton Foundation......(according to Canadian tax records researched by "Clinton Cash" author Schweizer).

***concerns deepen among Democrats and some former Justice Department officials that his investigation is being weaponized politically to help Mr. Trump***

Does that mean like Lois Lerner weaponizing the IRS to politically help Barak 0? Oh! But wait; she had no legal justification for what she did (but got away with it!)... Wm Barr is potentially investigating possible criminal activity. Isn't that the job he was hired to do?

And Hey! If the Clinton's are innocent of any such activity, what's the problem? 😒

“concerns that the team’s findings would be prematurely released before the election in November.”

It is incumbent upon the investigators to release any and all information relevant to a voters decision BEFORE the election.
