Why is Hillary even a subject of a toon when we have a mentally ill “president” whose divisive lies, treason, and amorality are so strikingly disruptive and massively counterproductive? Hillary? Really?
Trump tweets and his lapdog Ramirez starts drawing a cartoon. No cartoon about Trump promising $25,000 to the soldiers family and then not sending it until the media called him out on it.
To hear Sean Hannity tell it, the media is ignoring “what is becoming the biggest scandal — or, at least, one of them — in American history.”
Hannity is jumping waaay ahead of the facts. So is Breitbart News, which has been running misleading headlines like this: “FBI uncovers confirmation of Hillary Clinton’s corrupt uranium deal with Russia.”
New reporting this week by the Hill has, indeed, added a layer of intrigue to the sale of a uranium mining company to Russia’s atomic energy agency, which was approved by the Clinton-led State Department and eight other U.S. government agencies. But the latest developments, as they relate to Clinton, are not as explosive as certain news outlets — eager to draw attention away from reporting on President Trump and Russia — would have you believe.
. . . . . .
The New York Times reported in 2015 that “as the Russians gradually assumed control of Uranium One in three separate transactions from 2009 to 2013, Canadian records show, a flow of cash made its way to the Clinton Foundation.”
It is virtually impossible to view these donations as anything other than an attempt to curry favor with Clinton. Donations alone do not, however, prove that Clinton was actually influenced by money to vote in favor of the Uranium One sale — or to overlook the FBI investigation. Again, there is no evidence that she even knew about the investigation.
Similarly, it is virtually impossible to view foreign dignitaries’ habit of lodging at Trump’s Washington hotel as anything other than an attempt to curry favor with the president. Reservations and room service alone do not, however, prove that Trump’s foreign policy is actually influenced by money.
Some people willing to give Trump the benefit of the doubt are denying Clinton the same courtesy.
Here we go again with a charge that has been proven false, yet FOX continues to spew this false story & you accommodate them by following along with blind faith. Wake up to what is happening today & quit rehashing old, false stories.
Lock her up, if you have the evidence. Lock up Donald, if you have the evidence. Lets get all the crooks out. But you can’t be serious if you think Clinton is “radioactive” and the rest of them aren’t.
The Senate is investigating Russia, Hillary Clinton, Obama, Uranium and bribes. Trump has accused the Clintons of corruption and accepting millions of dollars from Russia. The crux of his allegations stem from the Russian atomic energy agency Rosatum and its majority-stake acquisition of Uranium One. Uranium One had mines in the US in 2010. The money from Uranium One and UrAsia went to the Clinton Foundation charity organization. Those donations occurred before and during the 2008 campaign. Bill Clinton was also paid to give a speech.
There is still no evidence the Clintons were paid by Russians to push through the Uranium deal.
Have you noticed how hard these people have to dig to find enough smoke screens to distract us all from the real and present danger of Russian collusion in our election procedurals.???? We’re coming up on midterm elections. There are seats open that could change control in the House and Senate. So here we go again mud throwing and s*** slinging while trying to hang on to political offices that the holders have not kept in good faith, have done nothing to earn our trust, and hope that we will be distracted enough that we will either not vote or will lazily vote them back into office.
JLOCKE, the odor is from the Republicans repeatedly bringing up the same HRC “scandals” without any valid reason. Tax payers should not have to pay for EIGHT Benghazi investigations, especially when several Republicans ADMITTED that this was being done to affect HRC’s poll numbers. Here we go again with the uranium, which has been over-investigated for no reason. These attempts to distract from the Russia investigation may make Trump supporters happy, but the rest of us just consider it to be MORE reasons to investigate.
They keep hoping and flogging dead horses. It just ,…..I keep wondering what are they trying to hide under all of that Smokescreen? It just seems to me somebody’s got a really guilty conscience to keep digging up dead horses and flogging them and making big stinks to try and keep our attention off of other things.

Golly, if they can just find something to pin on Hillary, that will completely mean that Trump never colluded with the Russians.
And he didn’t even appoint a PAID FOREIGN AGENT to be National Security Advisor.
And Pence didn’t lie about it.
And Obama really was born in Kenya.
And Saddam really did have nucular weapons.

Yes, trying to mislead the public with new lows in cartooning. Too bad the facts do not back the cartoon.

Mr. Ramirez, why do you have endless fascination with Hillary? She is not topical any more. The election was almost a year ago.

“It’s not just the uranium thing. Hillary exudes an oder of so many scandals the hazmat suits are only sensible.”
===
Golly, if we could just find something to pin on Hillary, it would PROVE that Trump never colluded with Russia(Putin).
And that Saddam actually had nucular weapons.
And those bone spurs were real.
And no pussies were grabbed by Trump.
And Mexico will pay for it.

I see collusion among all the conservative cartoonists bringing this issue up all at the same time.
Scary if you think about it.

This issue is a lie that has been debunked by 16 Federal Agencies.
More right wing Fake News.
