I miss the good old days when every RWnut on this forum was pissing himself with joy that HACKED emails might sink Hillary.
Don't count your chickens. Currently, Hillary Clinton is running all around the world desperately trying to divert attention from the Trump/Russia investigation has been turned on its head and is now investigating the Clinton/Uranium One corruption along with the Trump Dossier.
One question on the uranium one "corruption".
Logically, how does an alleged bribe to Clinton somehow guarantee the approval of a deal that Clinton had no authority to unilaterally decide?
How did that work?
If you base your question on Hillary saying that her State Dept was one of nine agencies that need to approve the deal, than you have to ask yourself first, did any of the other eight agencies knew about ongoing FBI investigation on U1 when they approved it. Keep in mind that all those agencies were Barry's appointees, and they'll normally support each other opinion.
If they did know, than they're all in it together, corruption goes much deeper and they're all accountable for it.
If they did not know, than Hillary cannot use them as cover and excuse for her wrongdoing.

Of course that's the basis because it is true.
It's actually 14 and the SoS has no authority on the council.

Why would any of them know about an investigation that potentially involves them?
Keep in mind that all those agencies were Barry's appointees, and they'll normally support each other opinion.
Simply not true. Your conjecture. Each department is reviewing the deal for potential national security concerns within their purview.
