If it’s under oath it’s a good sign.....

There are none so blind as those who refuse to see.

[Know et al]

Intelligence Committee?

An oxymoron if there ever was one!

PODESTA AND THE CLINTON FAMILY BUSINESS There may be no Clinton Foundation office in Moscow or St. Petersburg, but it is not for lack of trying. Bill Clinton received half a million dollars in 2010 for a speech he gave in Moscow, paid by a Russian firm, Renaissance Capital, that has ties to Russian intelligence.

Podesta is considered an insider----a "decision-maker" for the Clinton Foundation.

The Clinton Foundation took money from Russian officials and oligarchs, including Victor Kekselberg, a Putin confidant. The Foundation also received millions of dollars from Uranium One, which was sold to the Russian government in 2010, giving Russia control of 20% of the uranium deposits in the U.S. — the sale required approval from Hillary Clinton's State Department. What's more, at least some of these donations weren't disclosed.

Earlier, The New York Times reported the Clintons' connections thusly: "Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal." Plus Bill Clinton pocketed $500,000 from a Moscow investment bank for a brief speech.

However, The NYT and Washington Post never reported Pravda's headline: “Russian Nuclear Energy Conquers the World.” Imagine if a Republican State Department approved such a deal?

More egregiously, Hillary's campaign chairman, and longtime Clinton crony, the ubiquitous John Podesta, acting as "The Podesta Group" (co-founded w/ his brother, Tony) lobbied on behalf of Uranium One, after most of it was owned by Russia.

I’d like to have him do the penile tests for pedophilia.

[M Kehoe]

Podesta needs to be interviewed by the FBI.

[Kalamata]

And also, is it being recorded? Is immunity being awarded to Podesta?

Until the intelligence agencies staffs are purged and replaced with true Patriots, I won’t hold my breath.

[Yaelle]

What did this guy always bring to the table? Seriously. Is he simply a more homely Ray Donovan, or what?

[yoe]

Podesta is a Saul Aliensky devote, helped put together the (Russian uranium deal with Hillary)

Podesta is anti-constitution, pro-communism/progressives, works with Soros...Podesta is a man who collects or distributes the proceeds of illicit activities...a shadowy person whose name like the Clinton's usually means underhandedness.

[Liz]

..... that answer, would throw a lot of light on the Ciintons.......

[Parley Baer]

“In Private? Because the Dems can’t risk televising the GOP questioning his Russia ties.”

This ^^^^^

[houeto]

Seriously, what would happen if the Republicans on these committees just said enough of this BS and simply stopped showing up to any meetings dealing with the bogus Russian fiasco?
