Blame Sean Hannity. Or give him all the credit. The intrepid talk show host has been claiming for months that there is nothing to the Trump-Russia allegations, that the real tale of Russian collusion is linked to Hillary Clinton. The fact that very few people have taken this seriously has only caused the firebrand conservative to dig in deeper and repeat his talking points both more often and more fervently.
His insistence the Russian story would “boomerang” against the Democrats has been largely based on his communications (both on- and off-air) with Julian Assange and investigative reporters John Solomon and Sara Carter.
It seems like only yesterday justice was closing in on the Travel Office, Whitewater, the Clinton-era transfer of missile technology to the Chinese government, Fast and Furious, Solyndra, IRS harassment of conservative groups, the Clinton emails, Benghazi and a dozen others.
We might have believed Sean Hannity’s predictions, but we’d seen this movie before. Then came Tuesday. John Solomon and Alison Spann of the Hill and Sara Carter of Circa News had a story that may have broken open the largest national security scandal since the Rosenbergs.
In 2009, the Obama Justice Department began investigating a Russian plan to expand Russia’s atomic energy business by acquiring uranium in the United States. Through bribery, kickbacks, money laundering and extortion, the Russians were able to acquire 20% of the uranium mining rights in the United States. Shareholders in the Russian firm Rosatom funneled $145 million to the Clinton Foundation in the months leading up to the Obama administration’s approval of the transaction.

Need only look at the DOJ, FBI, IRS, CIA, NSA & the press. All the above mentioned are almost completly corrupt.
I disagree. There is significant corruption in the FBI and in the NSA, but most people in each organization are good, patriotic Americans.
Boy Scouts accept girls. Left is right. Up is down...
When it comes to republican politicians we discovered red is blue
The fox (Rosenstein) is checking to see if the fox is stealing the eggs. That’s going to turn out well. Might as well write the memo now. Acted recklessly. No prosecutor would prosecute. SWMNBN testifies before Congress. Laughs in their faces and cackles “What difference does it make”.
Then it’s back to lying, stealing and perverting in the Fake Congress. And we’re stuck with the bill.
I hate the clintons with every fiber of my being. They are traitors on par with the worst traitors this country has ever had. That they and any party that has participated in their traitorous misdeeds are still walking free show how corrupt this countries institutions are. From Loral/Hughes to this uranium deal, a working US justice system would have Hillary Clinton to Robert Mueller lined up before a firing squad for the crimes they have committed against the United States.
WHEN nothing becomes of this Uranium cover-up, it ultimately will be up to we the people to either march on Washington with our weapons in hand, demanding the cleanup that is so desperately needed, or just wimper on, only willing to complain on message boards and blogs but unwilling to do any of the tough work that must be done to purge the filth that has corrupted damn near every govt institution.
With all of the unanswered questions swirling around the Las Vegas shootings, the core of the issue is “how much do we trust the media and the government to tell us the truth?” How candid has the press been in reporting the Orlando and the Santa Barbara terrorists’ connections to Islam? Whatever happened to Major Nidal Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter? Oh, that was just workplace violence, remember? What’s the media been saying about the Wasserman-Shultz scandal? So, can we believe anything the mainstream media is or isn’t saying about the Obama/Clinton Russian connection? Obama so politicized every branch of our government that we may never be able to salvage our democracy. We’ll certainly never hear the truth except the snippets and glimpses the likes of Hannity and a few others can provide.
Most may be good, but the people in key posutions are not. Look at Sessions and anyone at the top of the DOJ
MiniTrue protects the guilty.
I'm afraid that the true motive may be an unwillingness to besmirch the highly-melinated who roam the land as sacred cattle do in India.
Corrupt organizations uses pyramid like hierarchies so that information is compartmentalized and people only know what they need to know.
Hey, that sounds just like defense and intelligence agencies—what a coincidence!
I respectfully have to disagree. Most of the people manning these agencies came there during the Clinton administration. The good people, the patriots, the Republicans, were driven out over the course of the past two decades. There are some dedicated men and women who want to do the right thing working in Washington, but they are the exception rather than the rule.

Great analogy!
Sessions said that it will be up to Rosenstein to decide if Rosenstein investigates his own investigation.
Very predictable since Sessions has already said that he will recuse himself of all investigations about Hillary.
Yet we still have a few Sessions defenders.
‘Recusal’ is by definition self-actuated. The AG recused *himself* from Hillary and Russia, leaving the DAG as acting AG in those matters.
Congress can authorize their own special counsel with investigative and prosecutor powers any time they want.
