and so, if you ve got an investigation going on into vladimir putin, russia and their attempt to gain access to the world s uranium supply, including in the united states of america, why on earth do you approve the sale of a company that controls 20% of the united states uranium? it s mind-boggling. i ll say this, it wasn t just that the informant was raising red flags, there were very prominent members of the u.s. house of representatives, representative king, representative ross-layton, both experts on and seasoned in national security and foreign policy issues, raising red flags, writing letters and yet, this was approved. remember, 500 million half a million, i m sorry, $500,000. half a million for bill clinton s speech. that s one-fifth paid by that was paid by a russian
