Hillary: Of Course I Had No Idea We Paid For The Russia Dossier or That It Existed
Townhall ^ | Oct 26, 2017 | Katie Pavlich

Posted on 10/26/2017 12:39:45 PM PDT by detective

After being caught red handed this week by the House Intelligence Committee of being behind the funding that produced the infamous Fusion GPS Russian dossier on Donald Trump, two time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is claiming she knew nothing about the payments or the existence of the dossier at all. Further, she's using Barack Obama's excuse of "I learned about it through news reports."   Hillary Clinton was unaware of the now-infamous dossier of allegations about Donald Trump and Russia prior to Buzzfeed's publishing of the document earlier this year, a source familiar with the matter has told CNN.

“treasurers have a high degree of legal responsibility. HC and DWS can plausibly deny”

The candidate and the Party Chairperson have more responsibility than the Treasurer, though ho had to know about it too.

Hillary Clinton and Debbie Wasserman Schultz can not plausibly deny this.

Strange how the woman knows EVERYthing there is to know about things she’s never had any experience with, whether it be running a business or providing health care or educating a child, but then she knows absolutely NOTHing about events she has dealings with every day. The woman is in perpetual campaign mode. Her every waking moment is consumed by how she can aggrandize herself and destroy her opponents.

“What about her husband and the Obola Clan? There’s a really long list, that she tops.”

If only George H W Bush had drifted closer to that Japanese held island when he was shot down.
Not many Americans survived that place. Cannibalism and all.
We would have been spared his Reagan killing legacy as well as W’s eight years.

Her parents raised her and saw to it that she could do no wrong and as a result, she believes she can never do wrong and is blameless in all things.

She sees herself as some goddess who can skate and get away with anything she’d like.

Hillary! also swore under oath that she learned that cattle futures were attractive by reading the WSJ.

Unfortunately, the WSJ did not print the prices of cattle futures.

Hopefully, no one is stupid enough to belief them.

Only the most hard core Clinton fans believe this excuse.

Some Democrat voters must be watching this and wondering, if Hillary was this ignorant about such goings on in her own campaign, how could she possibly be fit to be president?

Maybe by the end of the year with the book tour ending Hillary will no
longer be in the news except via some legal action if that ever takes place.

That $145 million “donation” to the Clinton Foundation for the uranium ore is going to be a little harder for Hillary to plead ignorance on.

AND THIS....the lies started years ago.

In 2010, as he prepared to collect a $500,000 payday in Moscow from a Russian investment bank, Bill Clinton sought "clearance from Hillary's State Dept" to meet with a key board director of the Russian nuclear energy firm Rosatom. At that time Rosatom needed the Obama admin’s approval for a controversial uranium deal, govt record s show.

BACKSTORY---THE CLINTON FOUNDATION CONNECTION Hillary-era State Dept officials in fall 2009 - a year before the U.S. approvd the uranium deal - had obtained an internal strategy document from Russia's main nuclear energy firm, Rosatom, that provided a warning about Moscow's intentions as it "flexes muscles" in uranium markets.

Later a memo surfaced that undercut Hillary's public story on the controversial Russian uranium deal, and its connection to the Clinton foundation.

SOURCE: Circa.com / FR Posted by ameribbean expat

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

In one cable sent to Hillary Clinton, US officials in Brussels warned Russia was about to strong-arm US ally Ukraine into a deal for "long-term supply of nuclear fuel" that could "shut" the US company Westinghouse out of the market and extend Moscow's influence over Europe. (Read more at circa.com ...)

THE NYT REPORTED: Money poured into The Clinton Foundation from a constellation of people with ties to Uranium One or UrAsia, the company that originally acquired Uranium One’s most valuable asset: the Kazakh mines. Without those assets, the Russians would have had no interest in the deal: “It wasn’t the goal to buy the Wyoming mines. The goal was to acquire the Kazakh assets, which are very good,” Mr. Novikov, the Rosatom spokesman, said in an interview.

BILLYBOOBOO TO THE RESCUE---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.

president Clinton (L) 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.

Time for Hillary to have her own exercise equipment malfunction. The pathological lying will be getting more difficult to believe than she’s used to.

Hillary is a lawyer who has made a career out of denying/not remembering as a strategy to avoid conviction. I wouldn’t expect any other response from her honestly.
