Proving for the millionth time just how clueless she is, Hillary Clinton compared alleged Russian interference in the 2016 election to the September 11th attacks earlier this month. “We had really well-respected security, intelligence veterans saying this was a cyber 9/11, in the sense it was a direct attack on our institutions,” Clinton claimed. “That may sound dramatic, but we know that they probed and tried to intrude into election systems — not just the social media propaganda part of their campaign.”
“This is an ongoing threat,” she declared, adding that the Russians are “not done.”
Well, that’s one insanely insensitive way to blame the American public for your loss, essentially claiming that everyone who voted against you was a victim of a “cyber 9/11.”
It’s particularly funny given that Hillary’s accusing the Russians of conspiring against her here – when she had no problem conspiring with them just over a half-decade ago. Hillary wasn’t comparing the Russians to al-Qaeda when they were giving her money – and they were. As we reported on October 18th, “the Obama administration was well aware that the Russians used bribery, kickbacks, and extortion to get a stake in the U.S. atomic energy industry, but still approved the 2010 deal giving Moscow control of one-fifth of America’s uranium. And not only did the Obama administration know about the crimes – they actively covered them up.”
Naturally, Trump was all over the news:
Uranium deal to Russia, with Clinton help and Obama Administration knowledge, is the biggest story that Fake Media doesn't want to follow!

Hillary didn’t push back against the reports until yesterday, calling them “baloney.”
“I think the real story is how nervous they are about these continuing investigations,” she said on C-SPAN.
“I would say it’s the same baloney they’ve been peddling for years, and there’s been no credible evidence by anyone. In fact, it’s been debunked repeatedly and will continue to be debunked,” she continued.
That’s when Hillary really tried to deflect charges that she conspired with the Russians. “But here is what they are doing, and I have to give them credit. [President] Trump and his allies, including Fox News, are really experts at distraction and diversion,” she said. “So the closer the investigation about real Russian ties between Trump associates and real Russians, as we heard [Attorney General] Jeff Sessions finally admit to in his testimony the other day, the more they want to just throw mud on the wall.”
Well, the investigations will be continuing, so it doesn’t seem like Congressional Republicans are very nervous.
According to Politico, two separate GOP-led panels are launching probes of the Obama-era uranium deal. From the report: “Two more Republican-led congressional committees will probe the Obama administration’s decision to approve the sale of American uranium production capability to a Russian state-run energy conglomerate, a key GOP lawmaker announced Tuesday.”
And Trey Gowdy will also assist in the investigation! More from the same report: “Rep. Devin Nunes, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said he’d be linking up with the House Oversight panel led by Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.).”
