FBI informant alleges Russia expected payback in the Uranium One deal for donations made to the Clinton Foundation

  Not all that long ago there were reports that there was an FBI informant who was going to expose the alleged pay to play scheme between the Clinton Foundation and the Uranium One deal. But since that initial report we have not heard anything more about this but now perhaps that has changed.

  According to this story the informant has issued a statement to three Congressional Committees that alleges Russia routed money to the Clinton Foundation with the expectation they could influence the Obama regime and Hillary Clinton. Here is more:

An FBI informant connected to the Uranium One controversy told three congressional committees in a written statement that Moscow routed millions of dollars to America with the expectation it would be used to benefit Bill Clinton‘s charitable efforts while Secretary of State Hillary Clinton quarterbacked a “reset” in U.S.-Russian relations.

The informant, Douglas Campbell, said in the statement obtained by The Hill that he was told by Russian nuclear executives that Moscow had hired the American lobbying firm APCO Worldwide specifically because it was in position to influence the Obama administration, and more specifically Hillary Clinton.

Campbell added in the testimony that Russian nuclear officials “told me at various times that they expected APCO to apply a portion of the $3 million annual lobbying fee it was receiving from the Russians to provide in-kind support for the Clintons’ Global Initiative.”

“The contract called for four payments of $750,000 over twelve months. APCO was expected to give assistance free of charge to the Clinton Global Initiative as part of their effort to create a favorable environment to ensure the Obama administration made affirmative decisions on everything from Uranium One to the U.S.-Russia Civilian Nuclear Cooperation agreement.”

He accused Obama administration officials of making decisions that ended up benefitting the Russian nuclear industry, which he said was seeking to build a monopoly in the global uranium market to help President Vladimir Putin seek a geopolitical advantage over the United States. 

  APCO is denying any connection, claiming these were two separate departments working apart from each other and it just coincidental. Douglas Campbell was also interviewed by the three committees–the Senate Judiciary Committee, the House Intelligence Committee, and the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. 

  Democrats are calling into question Mr. Campbell’s credibility and while he was not under oath during these interviews, from what I understand, it is still a crime to lie to the Congress so Douglas Campbell would have nothing to gain and everything to lose by providing the Congress with false information.
