Cancel 2018.2
Oh, hi
Consider the fact that Bill and Hillary Clinton received large sums of money directly and indirectly from Russian officials while Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State.
Bill Clinton was paid a cool $500,000 (well above his average fee) for a speech in Moscow in 2010. Who footed the bill? An investment firm in Moscow called Renaissance Capital, which boasts deep ties to Russian intelligence. The Clinton Foundation itself took money from Russian officials and Putin-connected oligarchs. They took donations from:
-- Viktor Vekselberg, a Putin confidant who gave through his company, Renova Group.
-- Andrey Vavilov, a former Russian government official who was Chairman of SuperOx, a research company that was part of the “nuclear Cluster” at the Russian government’s Skolkovo research facility;
-- Elena Baturina, the wife of the former Mayor of Moscow, who apparently gave them money through JSC Inteco, an entity that she controls.
The Clinton Foundation also scored $145 million in donations from 9 shareholders in a Canadian uranium company called Uranium One that was sold to the Russian government in 2010.
I described the deal in my book "Clinton Cash," and the account was confirmed by the New York Times in a 4,000 word front page article.
The deal required cabinet-level federal approval, including Hillary Clinton’s State Department. The deal allowed Rosatom, the Russian State Nuclear Agency, to buy assets that amounted to 20 percent of American uranium. Rosatom, by the way controls the Russian nuclear arsenal.
The flow of money to the Clintons is troubling because some of those donations were hidden and not disclosed by the Clintons. President Obama had required that the Clinton Foundation disclose all contributions as a condition of Hillary Clinton becoming Secretary of State. (They ignored that agreement in this case.) We uncovered those donations by going through Canadian tax records.
Everyone got what they wanted in this deal: the Canadian investors made a nice profit; the Russians got a strategic asset; and the Clinton Foundation cashed in a lot of money.

I have a hunch liberals will ignore this.
