-Source-The Hill- Eight years after its informant uncovered criminal wrongdoing inside Russias nuclear industry the FBI has identified 37 pages of documents that might reveal what agents told the Obama administration then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and others about the controversial Uranium One deal. Theres just one problem: The FBI claims it must keep the memos secret from the public. Their excuses for the veil of nondisclosure range from protecting national security and law enforcement techniques to guarding the privacy of individual Americans and the ability of agencies to communicate with each other. Sound familiar? Its a lot like the initial reasons the bureau was reluctant to turn over documents in the Russia collusion investigation such as former FBI agent Peter Strzoks stop Trump" texts or the revelation that Clinton and the Democrats funded the Steele dossier. The FBIs declaration and list of withheld documents entitled simply Uranium One Transaction" were posted recently inside its Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) online vault. The bureau actually released a handful of documents but it wasnt a big stretch of either freedom or information. It actually just released already public letters from members of Congress demanding answers in the Uranium One case. I was the reporter who first disclosed last fall that a globetrotting American businessman William Douglas Campbell managed to burrow his way inside Russian President Vladimir Putins nuclear giant Rosatom in 2009 posing as a consultant while working as an FBI informant.
