A federal indictment connected to the infamous Uranium One deal
facilitated by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the Obama
administration was announced Friday.
What happened?
The Department of Justice announced an 11-count indictment against Mark
Lambert in connection to a Russian bribery scheme involving the Uranium
One sale. Lambert is the former co-president of a Maryland-based
transportation company that provides services for the transportation of
nuclear materials to customers in the United States and abroad, the DOJ
said in a statement.
He was charged with one account of conspiracy to violate the the Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act and to commit wire fraud, seven counts of violating
the FCPA, two counts of wire fraud and one count of international
promotion money laundering, the DOJ said. More from the DOJ:
The charges stem from an alleged scheme to bribe Vadim Mikerin, a Russian
official at JSC Techsnabexport (TENEX), a subsidiary of Russias State
Atomic Energy Corporation and the sole supplier and exporter of Russian
Federation uranium and uranium enrichment services to nuclear power
companies worldwide, in order to secure contracts with TENEX.
beginning at least as early as 2009 and continuing until October 2014,
Lambert conspired with others at Transportation Corporation A to make
corrupt and fraudulent bribery and kickback payments to offshore bank
accounts associated with shell companies, at the direction of, and for the
benefit of, a Russian official, Vadim Mikerin, in order to secure improper
business advantages and obtain and retain business with TENEX.
A National Review expose on the Uranium One scandal explains that TENEX is
the commercial agent responsible for the sale and transportation of
uranium to the U.S. It is also a Kremlin-controlled company and a
subsidiary of Rosatom, Russias state-controlled nuclear company.
More details:
The bribery scheme deal was first reported last October. According to a
report from The Hill, federal investigators began collecting evidence
about crimes surrounding the deal in 2009.
The Hill reported the FBI had gathered substantial evidence that Russian
nuclear industry officials were engaged in bribery, kickbacks, extortion
and money laundering designed to grow Vladimir Putins atomic energy
business inside the United States. The report added:
Federal agents used a confidential U.S. witness working inside the Russian
nuclear industry to gather extensive financial records, make secret
recordings and intercept emails as early as 2009 that showed Moscow had
compromised an American uranium trucking firm with bribes and kickbacks in
violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, FBI and court documents
show.
They also obtained an eyewitness account backed by documents
indicating Russian nuclear officials had routed millions of dollars to the
U.S. designed to benefit former President Bill Clintons charitable
foundation during the time Secretary of State Hillary Clinton served on a
government body that provided a favorable decision to Moscow, sources told
The Hill.
The report went on to state the DOJ kept Congress and the American public
in the dark about corrupt Russian nuclear activities happening on U.S.
soil during a time when the Obama administration made two major decisions
benefiting Putins commercial nuclear ambitions.
What is the Uranium One scandal?
The Uranium One scandal is a controversy in which the Obama administration
permitted the sale of U.S. uranium mining facilities to Russias state
atomic energy company, according to NBC News. Multiple government
agencies had to approve the sale and the Clintons were key players in
securing the deal.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions initiated further investigation into the
scandal last month. He has even looked into the possibility of opening a
separate probe to investigate Clintons involvement in the deal.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.
Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.
ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its
supporters can dispute that.
Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.
Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.
