Tic, tic, tic…it was just a matter of time before this scandal blew up. On the election trail, then-candidate Trump brought up a not so convenient accusation against Hillary Clinton.
One that was universally ignored by the mainstream media and unaccounted for by the Trump hating loony left, as well as by weak-kneed Republicans.

Information has just come out revealing there was high-level collusion with the Russians alright. But it wasn’t Trump - who can’t even have Russian dressing on his salad anymore without hysterical accusations of foreign collusion.
Nyet. It’s lovely Hillary who may have the explaining to do when it comes to the Russians. While in recent years the political class in Washington has pivoted toward viewing the Russians as a renewed enemy, ole Hil’ likely dined on caviar and downed Russian vodka with Putin himself, while striking a deal to sell out America.
The deal, ok’d by Clinton and President Obama, allowed for a sale to Russia of a Canadian mining company in 2010. A company that has access to 20% of American uranium. Through financial and email records as well as eyewitness sources, it was found, for her role in the deal, Clinton received millions from the Russians to sign off on the sale as Madam Secretary.
FBI knew of Clinton corruption but sat on information
It is also being reported that the Clintons pocketed their haul before other officials gave their approval and without reporting it to the Government – another no, no. And it gets more delicious. It seems like the FBI and Department of Justice knew of the Clinton corruption in 2009. That whole James Comey not investigating Hillary Clinton for sending classified information through a private server is starting to make some sense.
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 benefitting Putin’s commercial nuclear ambitions.
