Mitt Romney: Clinton Foundation donations sure 'looks like bribery'
The GOP's failed 2012 presidential nominee has some very harsh words for the likely 2016 Democratic nominee regarding a big investigative report in The New York Times. The Times report shows that from 2009 to 2013, Hillary Clinton's State Department approved deals that handed Russia's atomic energy agency control over "one-fifth of all uranium production in the United States."
The problem, as my colleague Ryu Spaeth explains, is that "the Canadian magnates behind the deal had donated tens of millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation, while a Russian investment bank with an interest in the deal paid Bill Clinton a cool $500,000 for a single speech in Moscow."
