Russian Spy Ring Got Close to Hillary Clinton; Previously, State Department Denied Russian Spy Ring Got Close to Hillary Clinton

Breath deeply. Namaste. Prayer-hands. Warrior Pose.

Hillary Clinton may sometimes not be entirely truthful with you.

As Hillary Clinton was beginning her job as President Obama's chief diplomat, federal agents observed as multiple arms of Vladimir Putin's machine unleashed an influence campaign designed to win access to the new secretary of State, her husband Bill Clinton and members of their inner circle, according to interviews and once-sealed FBI records.
Some of the activities FBI agents gathered evidence about in 2009 and 2010 were covert and illegal.
A female Russian spy posing as an American accountant, for instance, used a false identity to burrow her way into the employ of a major Democratic donor in hopes of gaining intelligence on Hillary Clinton’s department, records show. The spy was arrested and deported as she moved closer to getting inside the secretary's department, agents said.
Other activities were perfectly legal and sitting in plain view, such as when a subsidiary of Russia’s state-controlled nuclear energy company hired a Washington firm to lobby the Obama administration. At the time it was hired, the firm was providing hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in pro bono support to Bill Clinton’s global charitable initiative, and it legally helped the Russian company secure federal decisions that led to billions in new U.S. commercial nuclear business, records show.
Agents were surprised by the timing and size of a $500,000 check that a Kremlin-linked bank provided Bill Clinton with for a single speech in the summer of 2010. The payday came just weeks after Hillary Clinton helped arrange for American executives to travel to Moscow to support Putin’s efforts to build his own country's version of Silicon Valley, agents said.
...
"There is not one shred of doubt from the evidence that we had that the Russians had set their sights on Hillary Clinton’s circle, because she was the quarterback of the Obama-Russian reset strategy and the assumed successor to Obama as president," said a source familiar with the FBI’s evidence at the time, speaking only on condition of anonymity, because he was not authorized to speak to the news media.

How did the Russian spy going by the name Cynthia Murphy get close to Hillary Clinton? Through her biggest weakness, of course -- money. Murphy got close to a Hillary fundraiser named Alan Patricof.

Back in 2010, when the spy story broke, Hillary Clinton's office issued a statement that there was “no reason to think the Secretary was a target of this spy ring.”
Court documents and agents who worked the case suggest otherwise, saying the Russians were specifically targeting her department and any intelligence they could get on the new administration’s emerging foreign policy.

The article goes on to note an informant for the FBI -- whose disclosures about the Uranium One deal have made recent news -- reports that he kept hearing about Russian efforts to buy their way into Hillary's inner circle. That informant's lawyer, Victoria Toensing, states:

"I can confirm that my client while working undercover for the FBI and in the employ of the Russian energy firm TENEX witnessed numerous, detailed conversations in which Russian actors described their efforts to lobby, influence or ingratiate themselves with the Clintons in hopes of winning favorable uranium decisions from the Obama administration," attorney Victoria Toensing said.

Definitely click on the article because it links the spy ring encircling the Clintons' with the enormous amounts of Russian cash the Clintons were taking at the exact same time. But I can't excerpt the whole thing.

The informant is being blocked from going public by a Non-Disclosure Agreement the Obama administration forced him to sign.

That may change, though. Charles Grassley has invited him to speak to the Senate Judiciary committee. A majority vote on that committee would produce a subpoena, which would trump any NDA (and presumably immunize him against any attempted action against him for breaching it).

The NDA may not even be legal, but I know a lot of Benghazi whistleblowers believe it is, and aren't willing to talk without that grant of congressional immunity. (Which, bizarrely, Congress won't give them.)

Nope, no uniparty here.

Remember when Joe Wilson IV was sent on a mission for the CIA by his wife Valerie Plame and immediately wrote an article for the NYT? It was full of lies of course, he had reported that Iraq had tried to buy uranium from Niger, then argued the other in his NYT article...but more to the point...why didn't that send him to prison?

42 After I read this article, it seemed to push two items: #1) The FBI/DOJ was all over this and did their job, #2) The spy ring never got close to Hillary due to #1.

So now we can see how Hillary/MSM will spin this. Hillary was the targeted VICTIM. It was taken care of by FBI/DOJ, so move on, there is nothing to see here.

The biggest problem they have is how to answer the question, "If you knew about the illegal activity by these companies, why would you approve of the uranium sale?"

Of course, why should they answer this question when it will never be asked to them directly by the MSM?

If congress does not investigate and ask the hard questions, this story will disappear in a month.

PJMedia, Fernandez has a piece about how the Russians spent very little money and with the powerful leverage of social media, got a great return on their investment.

We were warned about this, back in the early days of the internet, by newspaper editors who warn us that without well educated and highly skilled newspaper editors, the news media would focus on the fad of the moment, and really important news would be buried in trivia.

So don't try to say we weren't warned that this would happen. Experts told us this would happen, and we didn't listen.

All you really need to know is that it would be an ahistoric trajectory change for a DOJ counsel heading a bunch of clinton donors to seriously pursue charges against a hillary confidant and high-level functionary. Podesta was also hillary's lackey in the obama white house, after she left SoS.

Hillary has a vacuum the size of God in her soul. I don't care if she was Confirmed at age 14 or supposedly wanted to be a minister. She lacks the fruit of the Spirit. Granted all Christians need a continual infilling and reliance on the Holy Spirit and we need growth in our "fruit"but she has never seemed full of love joy peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, humility and self control. Hillary hasn't really addressed her hunger for God and the hunger comes out in other ways-for money, for power. When people don't have the presence of God their lives often waste away. She's isolated and alone even though she might not know that and she's in trouble.

Right, an NDA is void if the subject of the NDA is illegal. Hot tip: you can't contract to something that is illegal and expect a court to uphold it.

That's when I found out some of them can go up to 30 mph and, yeah, no, once you break about 10 mph you aren't a bike with some assisted pedaling, you are a scooter and I can see why people would be peeved that you are using a "bike' lane.

Democrats always get to investigate themselves ... and at best find a scapegoat. Freddie/Fannie ... Gorelick on the 9/11 commission despite having built "the wall" that hid intel from the FBI ... IRS's Lerner ... Benghazi ... Hillary's insanely illegal server and the many people carrying around classified material.

At this point any insider has been aware of the crimes/bribes/mishandling ... and are culpable. But they are still there investigating themselves, while good men leave in droves. Subpoenas are ignored, deives wiped with a cloth ... nothing matters ... no one wants to wake up and find they committed suicide, or have their home invaded in a Mueller dawn raid.

167 Other activities were perfectly legal and sitting in plain view, such as when a subsidiary of Russia's state-controlled nuclear energy company hired a Washington firm to lobby the Obama administration. At the time it was hired, the firm was providing hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in pro bono support to Bill Clinton's global charitable initiative, and it legally helped the Russian company secure federal decisions that led to billions in new U.S. commercial nuclear business, records show.

========

First of all, what does "pro bono" mean in this context? I thought it meant free legal services. Why would a lobbying firm do that?

Second, it seems the reasoning is "because this firm was already giving CGI hundreds of thousands a year, there is nothing unseemly about it continuing to do so after it took on the Russian company as a client". My question would be, why was it ok for the lobbying firm to make payments to Hillary's organization at any time when it was lobbying her in her role as a public official? Seems like a conflict of interest.

Third, it may have been legal for it to make proposals on behalf of its Russian client. But was it legal for the administration to accept them if they were against US interests?

Agents were surprised by the timing and size of a $500,000 check that a Kremlin-linked bank provided Bill Clinton with for a single speech in the summer of 2010.

Bike lanes make me laugh with rage, because the whole conceit of a bike is that it's somehow An Holy Vehicle that has all the same rights and privileges as all other vehicles AND DON'T YOU DARE SUGGEST OTHERWISE. Which then proceeds to go so far below the posted limit on a road that it's actually illegal, and to roll stop signs because MUH MOMENTUM.

Uggh. So, recognizing that bike use on many roads is a micropenile fuckery, is the answer to ban bikes on classes of roads or require their users to actually adhere to the laws thereof? Fuck no. Bikes NEED TO BE on those roads, dammit, and because poor baby can't be expected to follow the laws, we will carve out SPECIAL EXTRA ROADS!!! Out of the existing roads. Because so many bike riders make their vehicles the special snowflake of things with wheels.

HATE

At the same time, I think 30mph seems pretty sane in a bike lane if the road speed is anything like that. If bikes are going to go 5mph they might as well be on a footpath for all the good the bike lane's doing.

222 At some point around 2010, the Russians must have felt pretty good about Hillary. They had her e-mail account so they had any information on that. There was every indication she would do the same thing as president. And they had just managed to buy her cooperation on the Uranium One deal.

So why did they NOT want her as president in 2016? Well, for one, she was happily screwing up the Middle East by wrecking Libya, and then moving on to Syria, a Russian client. Next, the blackmail potential of her e-mail server evaporated when Russia realized how eager the media was to jump on any grenade Russia tossed. Lastly, I am thinking Hillary proved to be a bad Chicago politician...she refused to stay bought. Russia likely asked her for something, reminding her of the 145 million they gave her Foundation and she told them that was a short term lease payment, long since expired and if they wanted further favors, they would need to renew the lease.

233 in most states, the size of the engine determines whether you are riding a bike or a motorcycle.

There are always going to be edge cases that make it hard to distinguish, but scooter v motorcycle in the general case isn't that hard to define. Scooters have a step through frame design and they have automatic transmissions. They usually also have linked brakes, which is fairly rare in motorcycles.

Motorcycles have a step over frame design, manual transmission, and typically have independent front/rear braking systems.

The motor/engine size is probably better as a bright line distinction.

Yeah I think the poor grieving mom is really being manipulated and
abused by the people around her. They want to turn her into this black
icon of abuse and hopefully troll Trump into saying something nasty but
he is just ignoring her so far.

Yup, she's Cindy Sheehan 2.0. Hated the way they used that grieving mom, encouraged her rage, amplified her attacks on Bush, and then dropped her as soon as she stopped being useful.

Bourbon in my coffee?
Polonium in my tea?

What are all these crazy questions you are asking me?
Don't turn on the lights, I don't want to see.

Open up the window, let me catch my breath.

240 Such a weird time to be alive. All this stuff, in a real world, would
have all sorts of consequences for the perps, and we'd be talking in
hushed tones about nooses and electric chairs...

But not in 21st century America.

Everything is subjective.

Democrats have good intentions= not ever guilty

Republicans are evil and have bad intentions= guilty without a trial.

Copy, past and print the above so you can reference it in the future. It's a handy guide to our world!

241 I have yet to encounter/see a bike in a bike lane either when driving or in front of my house where they put one in around 2010. It is useful as a place to walk when there is no sidewalk.

I think a lot of it was wishful thinking or hoping they could be self-fulfilling.

City commissioner: why don't people ride bicycles more and make or job of controlling traffic easier?
Other Commissioner: I bet if there were bike lanes, they would!
Commision: UNANIMOUS VOTE

The thing is, bike lanes are some of the worst places to ride a bicycle on. All that crap that gets in the road like broken glass and gravel and stuff gets kicked to the side by the cars going by... into the bike lane.

243 70 Intimidation only works if there's fear of enforcement though. You can't intimidate me by having me sign something that in no way can be enforced.
=====================

I don't agree with that. The threat of heavy legal costs to defend yourself is daunting, even if there is a possibility you might recover those costs someday after winning your case.
