Mueller Now Connected to a Covered Up Bribery Scheme Involving Hillary Clinton - Duration: 12:45.

Mueller Now Connected to a Covered-Up Bribery Scheme Involving Hillary Clinton

Well, well, well.

It looks as if former FBI director Robert Mueller, who is now special counsel in charge

of the Justice Department's Russia investigation, allegedly hid evidence that was collected

as early as 2009 which shows Russian officials were involved in a bribery scheme with Hillary

Clinton's charity in order to expand their atomic energy business within the U.S

According to The Hill:

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.

Rather than bring immediate charges for the scheme though, the FBI and Justice Department

decided to continue "investigating" the issue for four more years – leaving the

American public and Congress in the dark about Russian nuclear corruption on U.S. soil during

a period when the Obama administration made two major decisions benefiting Putin's commercial

nuclear ambitions.

The details were revealed in a report earlier this week.

Apparently, the evidence was withheld from lawmakers while they were questioning the

Obama administration's approval of the sale of Uranium One to Russia's nuclear giant

Rosatom in 2010, which ultimately led to Russian control of 20% of U.S. uranium supply.

Then, in 2011, the administration approved Tenex, a subsidiary of Rosatom, in partnership

with the United States Enrichment Corp., to sell commercial uranium to U.S. nuclear power

plants.

Prior to that, Tenex was only allowed to sell reprocessed uranium recovered from dismantled

Soviet nuclear weapons under the 1990s "Megatons to Megawatts" peace program U.S. nuclear

power plants.

An anonymous person who worked on the case informed The Hill, "The Russians were compromising

American contractors in the nuclear industry with kickbacks and extortion threats, all

of which raised legitimate national security concerns.

And none of that evidence got aired before the Obama administration made those decisions."

"Former Rep. Mike Rogers (R-MI), who chaired the House Intelligence Committee during the

time the FBI probe was being conducted, told The Hill that he was never told of anything

regarding "Russian nuclear corruption," though many of his fellow lawmakers were concerned

about the deal, which was also approved by Hillary Clinton's State Department.

"Not providing information on a corruption scheme before the Russian uranium deal was

approved by U.S. regulators and engage appropriate congressional committees has served to undermine

U.S. national security interests by the very people charged with protecting them," Rogers

said.

"The Russian efforts to manipulate our American political enterprise is breathtaking.""

Ex FBI Agents Reveal A Shocking Truth About The Spy Sent Into The Trump Campaign - Duration: 12:55.

Ex-FBI Agents Reveal A Shocking Truth About The Spy Sent Into The Trump Campaign

The FBI's spygate is not going away.

In fact, every day new revelations come to light that show the FBI cutting corners in

their scheme to spy on Donald Trump.

Now former FBI agents are speaking out and what they have to say is bad news for Comey

and the anti-Trump FBI.

Cambridge professor Stefan Halper has been named in published reports as the spy who

worked to insert himself into the Trump campaign.

Halper contacted three Trump campaign aides – Carter Page, George Papadopoulos and Sam

Clovis – to try and build a relationship.

That was bad enough.

But now a bombshell report reveals that Halper was both an on and off the record source for

the media where he attacked Trump confidante Lt. General Michael Flynn and used fake news

to claim Flynn was involved with a Russian agent.

Halper – who apparently sees Russian spies in every closet and under every bed – was

apparently an unnamed source for stories claiming Flynn's relationship with Svetlana Lokhova,

a researcher at Cambridge who studied Russian intelligence, had crossed the line.

Flynn – who sat next to Lokhova at a dinner when he visited Cambridge in 2014 – was

the subject of media speculation for failing to disclose to intelligence authorities his

contact with a foreign national.

Halper played up the allegations and went even further by claiming Lokhova was a spy.

But the two merely sat next to each other at dinner, and such a contact would not have

warranted disclosure.

Lokhova tweeted that the accusations were meant to smear her.

Halper resigned from the Cambridge Intelligence Seminar in 2016 by making a public statement

about how the group had been infiltrated by Russians.

There is no evidence this is the case and Halper did not provide any proof to back up

his allegations.

The Daily Caller contacted two former FBI agents – James Gagliano and Ron Hosko – and

both blasted the FBI for allowing Halper to be a media source.

Gagliano told the Daily Caller that these press interactions could harm any legal case,

"This is something that is highly irregular and not something that I would have ever tolerated

with any of the folks working for me.

The road is fraught with peril when somebody is speaking off the cuff or speaking to the

media and putting themselves in a position where that can then be used as discovery material

when we do bring a case."

Hosko went further saying Halper speaking to the press could undermine his credibility,

telling the Daily Caller, "an informant's interactions with the press could create circular

reporting that would serve to make their information 'appear more valuable or more true" than

it actually is."

Halper – and the FBI's – credibility are in tatters.

The Bureau allowed an asset to violate protocol on how a spy should operate.

That calls into question what other shortcuts they used in this matter.

And Halper has established a reputation of being a wild-eyed academic who sees Russian

infiltration around every corner.

Halper has twice made baseless accusations of Russian spies lurking at Cambridge and

falsely accused one Trump campaign aide – Michael Flynn – of being compromised by the Russians.

Critics wonder if Halper was chosen to spy on Trump campaign aides precisely because

of his history of overhyping Russian plots—knowing they could count on him to provide hyped intelligence

that could be used to justify further spying on the Trump campaign.

There is evidence this could be the case.

A FISA warrant against Carter Page was renewed multiple times and finally ended in September

2017.

Coincidentally, that was the month Halper cut off contact with Page.

Did the FBI use an unreliable spy to cook the books on the intelligence used to justify

the warrant to spy on Page?

The Democrats Sealed Their Own Doom In 2018 With This Fatal Mistake - Duration: 11:09.

The Democrats Sealed Their Own Doom In 2018 With This Fatal Mistake

Democrats and the media rejoiced over Donald Trump's new executive order ending family

separation for illegal aliens caught crossing the border.

But Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi's glee was short lived.

That's because the party sealed their own doom with this fatal mistake.

Trump's new executive order demands that families remain together in detention facilities

while they await their criminal proceedings to play out.

This new order will run up against the 1997 Flores decree which mandates that illegal

alien children can only be held for 20 days.

A 2015 U.S. District Judge Dolly M. Gee – who was appointed by Obama – extended that protection

to illegal alien children who tried to enter the country illegally with their parents.

Trump's executive order instructs the Justice Department to argue before Gee that she should

lift her order, but few experts believe that will be successful.

But Democrats overplayed their hand.

After Trump signed his executive order, prominent Democrats blasted out statements making it

clear that what they really objected to was immigration enforcement of any kind.

California Democrat Kamala Harris – a top-tier contender for the 2020 nomination – ripped

Trump's decision and made it clear she is staking her ground on complete open borders

and amnesty for any illegal alien who can successfully sneak into America.

Harris tweeted:

"TRUMP'S EXECUTIVE ORDER DOES NOT FIX THIS CRISIS.

IT GIVES NO SOLUTION FOR THE THOUSANDS OF CHILDREN WHO HAVE BEEN TORN AWAY FROM THEIR

FAMILIES AND REMAIN SEPARATED."

Journalists also whined.

MSNBC's Kasie Hunt complained that illegal immigrants would still be prosecuted for a

crime:

"THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER DOES NOT END THE ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY — EVERYONE WILL CONTINUE

TO BE PROSECUTED WHICH PUTS A SERIOUS STRAIN ON RESOURCES."

Republicans took note that Democrats don't really care about family separation or treating

children humanely.

What they want is open borders—an issue to club Republicans with in the November election.

Florida Senator Marco Rubio tweeted:

"THE INK ISN'T EVEN DRY ON THE NEW EXECUTIVE ORDER ENDING SEPARATION POLICY & SOME DEMOCRATS

ALREADY ARGUING THAT KEEPING FAMILIES TOGETHER ISN'T ENOUGH.

NOW THEY WANT THEM & THEIR PARENTS RELEASED AFTER UNLAWFUL ENTRY KNOWING FULL WELL THAT

HIGH % WILL NEVER APPEAR FOR HEARING."

But Democrats are walking into a trap.

If Judge Gee strikes down Trump's executive order, then the terrain shifts to much more

favorable ground for the President and the Republican Party.

In a recent Economist/YouGov poll, Trump's zero tolerance policy had a 46 percent approval

rating, with just 37 percent of Americans disapproving.

And when Americans were presented with four options – not enforcing immigration law

by releasing the families, detaining the families together until their deportation hearing,

separating children from their parents, or sending the adults to jail and the children

to juvenile detentions centers – Trump's new plan of detaining families until their

deportation hearing received the most support at 44 percent.

The Democrats plan of open borders and "catch and release" won the backing of just 19

percent of Americans.

The Democrats position is a fringe position, and Trump's position is the one supported

by a plurality of Americans.

Once the fight shifts to enforcing the law – and keeping families together – or effectively

dissolving America's borders, it will be the Democrats who are on the run.

That's why red state Democrats – ten of whom are running for re-election this year

– sounded notes of caution when asked if the Democrats unified opposition to Trump's

plan was sustainable.

Maryland Senator Chris Van Hollen told Politico he was not certain the Democrats could remain

united once Trump's more popular proposals took center stage:

"BUT ASKED WHETHER DEMOCRATS WOULD REMAIN UNITED AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATION'S LATEST

MOVE, VAN HOLLEN SAID THAT "WHERE THAT CONVERSATION WILL GO, I JUST CAN'T SPECULATE UNTIL I

SEE THE DETAILS."

Democrats may have celebrated too soon.

Trump may have ceded one inch of territory to gain a mile of favorable ground.

If the 2018 midterms are contested over the clash between open borders or enforcing the

rule of law, Trump and the GOP could blunt the expected

blue wave.

Trump Ending It For All 'Non-Citizens,' Panicked Illegals Deporting Themselves In Droves – America… - Duration: 6:21.

Trump Ending It For All 'Non-Citizens,' Panicked Illegals Deporting Themselves In

Droves – America Wins!

Progressive leftists consistently cite Americans as lacking compassion if they do not support

illegal immigration and open borders policies.

On the contrary, most Americans do not have an issue with immigration at all.

The issue lies in whether they have chosen jump our borders in defiance of U.S. immigration

laws or if they have chosen to go through legal channels.

Illegal aliens utilize benefits paid for with the tax dollars taken from hardworking American

citizens and intended for the use of American citizens.

Yet people who have never paid into the system are partaking of the benefits.

Leftists will argue that illegal aliens do not qualify for welfare, yet the facts do

not lie.

In a shocking new report from the Migration Policy Institute, it reveals that American

taxpayer-funded welfare is used by 10.3 million non-citizens!

More than half of all non-citizen children and teens in the United States are receiving

taxpayer-funded welfare, mostly Medicaid, while nearly half of all non-citizen adults

legally in the country are on welfare.

That is a staggering 54% of teens and children receiving some form of public welfare and

nearly half of adults.

The Census Bureau charted the growth in the use of taxpayer-funded programs for financially

poor new immigrants and found the biggest rise in the use of welfare, roughly triple

over the last 10 years.

According to an analysis by the Center for Immigration Studies, the use of Medicaid by

immigrants has gone up nearly as much.

According to the Migration Policy Institute –

"In a just-released study of welfare use by U.S. born Americans, naturalized citizens

and non-citizen aliens, the Migration Policy Institute found that of the 22 million non-citizens

in the country, 10.3 million are on at least one welfare program.

The report said that 54.2 percent of children and teens up to age 17 receive at least one

of four major public welfare benefits while its 46.3 percent for those aged 18-54 and

47.8 for older aliens.

By comparison, 32 percent of the U.S. born population of 270 million receive some welfare.

Of those, 45.8 percent are children and teens, 30 percent are aged 18-54 and 22.5 percent

are age 55 and older."

According to the Washington Examiner, the report is a warning that the current Trump

administration is following through with its campaign promises regarding immigration.

New rules are being considered making it significantly more difficult for illegal aliens to receive

a green card if they or one of their dependents are receiving Medicaid, cash welfare, food

stamps, and/or Social Security benefits.

MPI also revealed the Trump administration is considering changes in the standard for

when receipt of public benefits can be used as grounds for the deportation of legally

present noncitizens.

MPI states of the report significant key findings are:

Based on the experience of the 1990s immigration and welfare reforms, it is reasonable to expect

that the rule will discourage millions of immigrants from accessing health, nutrition,

and social services.

These "chilling effects" are likely to stretch beyond immigrants themselves to affect

U.S.-citizen children whose parents may disenroll them from services for fear of immigration

consequences.

These impacts are likely to weigh most heavily on states with large immigrant populations

and those with inclusive public-benefit policies, such as California and New York.

Further estimating the new draft proposed rules could and likely will significantly

reshape future legal immigration as it will give the Trump administration as well as that

of future administrations broad discretion to deny a much larger share of applications

from prospective immigrants as well as those already currently residing within U.S. borders

who are seeking a green card.

MPI estimates that the law would have a "chilling effect" on immigration and thereby cut welfare

use by aliens significantly

According to the report – "Although it is difficult to estimate precisely how many

people would alter their behavior in response to the proposed change in public-chart policy,

if immigrants' use patterns were to follow those observed during the late 1990s there

could be a decline of between 20 percent and 60 percent — and that even some members

of groups exempt from the new rule [e.g. refugees] would likely withdraw from public programs."

The Washington Examiner also reports

Steven Camarota, the center's director of research and the study's lead author, highlighted

those two Census data points in noting that it has happened despite the increase in education

levels for immigrants.

He also found that new immigrants are twice as likely to live in poverty as native-born

Americans.

According to a report entitled Better Educated, But Not Better Off from Steven Camarota, Director

of Research for the Center for Immigration Studies –

"The share of new immigrants in poverty was slightly higher in 2017 than in 2007,

and the gap with natives widened slightly.

Overall, new immigrants remained twice as likely to live in poverty as natives.

In 2007, 6 percent of new immigrants were on Medicaid; by 2017 it was 17 percent — an

11 percentage-point increase.

The share of natives on Medicaid increased from 7 percent to 13 percent — a six percentage-point

increase.

New immigrants are now more likely to use the program than natives.

The share of new immigrants living in households receiving food stamps roughly tripled from

4 percent to 13 percent from 2007 to 2017.

Among natives, food stamp use also increased, but not as much, from about 6 percent to 10

percent.

New immigrants are now more likely to live in a household on food stamps."
