New York Times: Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation as Russians Pressed for Control of Uranium Company
The headline in Pravda trumpeted President Vladimir V. Putin’s latest coup, its nationalistic fervor recalling an era when the newspaper served as the official mouthpiece of the Kremlin: “Russian Nuclear Energy Conquers the World.”
The article, in January 2013, detailed how the Russian atomic energy agency, Rosatom, had taken over a Canadian company with uranium-mining stakes stretching from Central Asia to the American West. The deal made Rosatom one of the world’s largest uranium producers and brought Mr. Putin closer to his goal of controlling much of the global uranium supply chain.
But the untold story behind that story is one that involves not just the Russian president, but also a former American president and a woman who would like to be the next one.
Update: For Clintons, speech income shows how their wealth is intertwined with charity -- Washington Post
WNU Editor: It always amazes me on the things that people do to make money .... especially from those who are rich and powerful. In this context .... this New York Times post is a must read. On a side note .... I advised Russian and Chinese companies on what is the regulatory/political/economic environment in Canada. When this story first broke out in Canada (where I now live) .... I did the necessary research and analysis .... and I said to myself that for such a deal to happen .... there had to be heavy political connections involved. Now .... I .... and everyone else now know who was involved.

Update #3: The more that I am thinking about this story .... the more that I cannot help but feel that someone is trying to knee-cap the Clintons. Someone in the White House maybe?

There are 21 months until the election.
The caucuses and primaries do not start for 8 or 9 months.
Hillary could and should be sunk with this revelation.
There is plenty of time for Pocahontas Warren of the high cheekbones, whose ancestor shot an Indian and house flipper extraordinaire, to get in the race. If Hillary is toast politically, allegiances will immediately shift to Warren or some other Democrat and they will be formidable. The will automatically get 40% to 48% of the vote.
While looking to torpedo Hillary candidacy (She is certainly undeserving.), people have to be prepared for other candidacies.
I have a question.
People including foreigners and foreign governments paid graft into the Clinton Foundation expecting results.
If Hillary fails and can't deliver, how much will she need secret service protection?
This question was raised on Earth Day by a pundit.
Sometimes karma happens in this life. I will make sure I have popcorn and crocodile tears.
