Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign manager, John Podesta, played a central role in another potential Russian collusion scandal that has not yet been investigated.
Podesta, the former chief of staff to President Bill Clinton, served on the board of Joule Unlimited, a now defunct alternative energy company, from January 2011 to January 2014. He resigned from the company’s board to accept the powerful job of Counselor to President Barack Obama.

During Podesta’s tenure on the board of Joule Unlimited, a significant investment in the company by a firm owned by the Russian government escaped review and scrutiny by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS).

In September 2011, eight months after Podesta joined the board of Joule Unlimited, Rusnano, a venture capital fund wholly owned by the Russian government, announced it was investing one billion Russian rubles, $35 million, in the company, which accounted for 46 percent of the $75 million invested in it up to that time from its launch in 2007. Founders Afeyan Noubar and Dr. David Berry invested an estimated $10 million in the 2007 first round. The venture firm Noubar heads, Flagship Ventures – now known as Flagship Pioneering – led a second round investment of $30 million in 2010, as the Boston Globe reported.

Curiously, the CFIUS failed to initiate a review of the transaction despite statutory and administrative guidelines that any such transaction in which a foreign country or foreign company obtained more than a ten percent interest in an American company was reviewable.

“CFIUS has significant discretion to determine when a foreign entity has sufficient control to confer jurisdiction,” according to Overview of the CFIUS Process, a report prepared by the law firm Waltham & Lakins, a leading practitioner before CFIUS:

As a practical matter, the scope of CFIUS’ jurisdiction is often ambiguous. This ambiguity is illustrated by the one “safe harbor” explicitly established by CFIUS’ regulations, which provides that investments resulting in a foreign person having an ownership interest of 10% or less of the outstanding voting interests in the US business are not within CFIUS’ jurisdiction, if those investments are held “solely for the purpose of passive investment.”

While this formulation appears straightforward, a closer read reveals that the “passive” nature of the investment can be called into question in light of “other” facts deemed relevant by CFIUS — e.g., contractual or other arrangements between the foreign investor and the target. (emphasis added)

This should be hysterical.

So...this connects how?

Will you start posting pizzagate stuff with QAnon to add to your illogical claims with "URANIUM WWWOOONNNNN!!!!" "BENGHHAAAZZZIIIIIII" and "NO GO ZONES IN EUROPE!!!!!!!!!"

Lolololol

I could whack you on the head with a book of truth, and you'd deny it happened.

Please whack me over the head with these receipts from reliable sources that are based in empirical data.

It shouldn’t be too hard.

Oh I missed where Podesta was not targeted by Russian hackers but was the inside man running the deep state conspiracy against Trump well before Trump ever decided to run! Breitbart should get a Pulitzer for this cutting edge investigative piece!

Brietbart..... The puppet propaganda machine of Steve Brannon...

One step below tha National Enquirer in accuracy....

Keep trying, maybe they will connect Podesta to a nudie.

And the msm lied to all of you for over two years about how much evidence there was on Trump, and you all still believe them. Guess what, when someone finally leaks the entire Mueller report, there still won't be any. I guess the all the gullible on the left like being played for fools.

Rocket, you missed one.

Angela Merkel admits German NO-GO zones are 'a REALITY'

ANGELA Merkel has admitted German no-go zones are a “reality” in shocking comments which add to fears there are places in the country where outsiders and even police offices are afraid to visit.

The German Chancellor, who is approaching her fourth term in office, confessed there are places in her nation “where people are afraid to go”.

Her shocking comments come after a shock report revealed gangs of men are preventing people from straying into once vibrant areas of the country for fear of violence and abuse that even law enforcement has been unable to control.
==============

Please note the date on this article is 3/1/18. Just because the french, british, belgian, swedeish, and other European governments refuse to admit they've lost control of parts of their countries, doesn't mean they don't exist.

Countless hearings.. 2+ years of Republican control of congress and the white house and now, when it appears that Barr may have mislead the American people, this stuff suddenly comes up..

Yikes,,,,

This is impossible Erik. The Lefties in here keep telling us how they are so intelligent and wise, how they are smarter than the rest of us. There's no possible way they could ever be taken in by untruths and falsehoods. </sarcasm font off>

If you haven't noticed yet, Republicans aren't all in for Trump. A lot of them declared themselves 'never Trumpers' during the election. Obummercare wasn't repealed because the repubs that voted 100% when obummer was in office, changed their votes when Trump was in office and would have signed the bill. They had no spine when it mattered, and it was the exact same bill.

Ahh yes, the last gasp at the Russia conspiracy. I'd suggest not holding your breath.

GOP is totally in the hands of Trump and have compromised their values to support the man totally. What happened before Trump got elected is ancient history. Just look at Ted Cruz and Ben Carson ... both said vitriolic things about trump before the election - both sniveling lackies now.

As for the OP - Breitbart is not a reliable news source and neither is the Express which is a rag in the UK - 2 or 3 steps below "The USA Today" ... With that said - if there is ANY evidence of any wrong doing by Clinton, or the Dems and it can be validated and substantiated - then 100% I would want it investigated and prosecuted if relevant. But this simply looks like another Whatabout by Breitbart.

While I think there is FAR more actual evidence of Clinton committing crimes than there is Trump committing collusion, I would be a hypocrite to continue to whine about Hilary.

It's over AND she lost, this needs to be put behind us.

She assisted in the sale of 20% of US uranium to Russia, and her husband got a half million dollar donation to their foundation for a speech in Russia. This sale was not reviewed by the democrat controlled government, and 30000 emails disappeared. This needs to be investigated so it can't happen again. Lots of dems getting paid by Russia here.

LOL All evidence to the contrary... Fact is, had McCain voted to kill OBAMACARE (learn to spell will ya) it would have been dead and 28 Million Americans would be without Health Insurance today.

As for Republicans that don't support Trump, you are dreaming....

Define "support Trump".

I think there is a whole lot of Trump that I don't support. I think you mean, have a deranged world view that everything Trump does, says or tries to accomplish is a racist, bigoted, criminal conspiracy.

There is like 80% of America in the middle. I'm not even a Republican, I don't support Trump in a lot of thing he does, but I'm a "trumpian" to deranged leftist for not disagreeing with EVERYTHING he does no matter what it is.

Unless you speak like Maxine Waters apparently you're a "Trumpian".





Last night for example I tweeted about how objectively idiotic this is.

Well we'll stop in 8 years then, since the two investigations are so alike.

Alt-right propaganda regurgitation machine. She was completely and totally exonerated!

Incorrect. The fbi never investigated this. The fbi dropped all of it after comeys speech on her emails. The fbi does not exonerate anyone.

They dropped it because there was nothing to pursue! Just a lot of conspiracies theories from the alt-right. Comey was a Republican, everyone who investigate Hillary was a GOPer and after years of being cooperative in investigation after investigation she was not charged for anything, no evidence ever came out that made her look guilty of an intentional crime.

But I share your issue with her using those private servers, there should have been a price paid for that, but the rest is just political attacks.

Thanks, next time maybe use something more reputable than express...it's the UK equivalent of the National Enquirer. I did my own homework and I found sources that elaborate on what you posted.

Here's the rub, though. You claimed "no-go zones" governed by Sharia Law in the UK. You still have yet to prove those exists with such acknowledgements by leaders. Until that happens, you're still taking an L on this.

Comey is as much a Republican as you are, and there was plenty to persue. Just the fact that she had classified info on her server was enough to charge her, not to mention the deletions of that data. Intent doesn't matter, as per the statute.

You really think a government official will admit they've lost conrtol of their country. These zones have been there since the 80s. The cops know it, the fire department knows it, the people know it. The government hides it. Talk to someone from there.

I see one main problem in all of this.

We have an AG who was hand picked by Trump. It would only be logical that if there was any truth to this an investigation would have already been launched. Why would they hesitate?

If there is any actual evidence that calls for an investigation I'm all for it.

But let's be honest here, if any such evidence actually existed, the GOP would be on it like white on rice. Trump has been calling for Hillary to keep being investigated since he was running back in 2015.

If they could come up with any legitimate reason to do so, it would already be taking place.

The threat is always more impactful than the act..

Every president hand picks an AG. I don't see why that's your new constant saying. As if obummers got picked by someone else or something.

I can't believe you're being this obtuse. Wait a minute, yes I can.

The point is the GOP is running the Justice Department. If there's any dirt on Hillary she would be under investigation right now. Trump has been asking for investigations of Hillary for years now. So why wouldn't the people he hired be doing those investigations if they had any evidence to base them on?

I don't like Hillary. I think she's as crooked as Trump is.

So if you think there's evidence that Hillary needs to be investigated you should contact your representatives. Because from your accusations it seems like the people in charge in Washington, the Republicans are letting you down.

I mean how bad is it that there's all this evidence on Hillary and the Republicans refuse to investigate her?

Also, these investigations are not supposed to be public. So they just might be investigating her. And you want to talk about obtuse.

Well if she is guilty of anything I hope they find out.

But yeah, if the GOP had anything on Hillary, FOX news would be shouting it to high heaven. But then you know that.

As I said before, read Gregg Jarret's book. He's been researching everything from uranium one to the Russia hoax. From interviews I've heard, he's got her like Woodward and Berstein had Nixon.

Oh most definitely.... I'm sure the evidence is as iron clad as what sheriff Joe and his posse together when they said that has proven Obama wasn't American. You know, despite the uranium one thing has actually been proven not to be true. Smh

Should also mention the ironclad evidence that was purported about Pizzagate and the Body Bag stories of the Clintons assassinating political foes .....

So typical. Did you even look any of it up before dismissing it? The wilfully ignorant will eventually destroy the world.

I actually agree with pitt on this issue. it wouldn't/shouldn't take them this long if they were investigating her.

the right has screamed about the length the Mueller investigation took, then if there was something on Hillary - it should have been concluded by now.

The Uranium One issue was debunked - by facts and evidence. So all I need to know is you are thumping your chest about a guy who is claiming to have proven a fake story that's already been put to bed. And Sheriff Joe and Trump said THE EXACT same thing about Obama ... and nothing ... people believed 100% in Pizzagate ... people claimed the same thing about the Clintons having people assassinated. . . . goes in the same file as those that claim Elvis is alive and well and that 911 was orchestrated by our Govt

Elvis is alive! I saw him at the Krispy Kreme this morning!
