Fox News host Sean Hannity unloaded on the Democrats and the mainstream media Monday night, saying they had been “flat out lying” about which 2016 presidential candidate actually had close ties with Russia.
“The evidence is now incontrovertible, it’s overwhelming that the Clintons sold out our national security to the Russians, and the Obama administration did nothing to stop them and then they covered it up,” Hannity said. “Democrats and the media, they have been lying to you for over a year about what is really going on.”
The root of the Russia-Clinton connections was a deal to allow Uranium One, a Russian company, to buy a significant part of the American uranium supply.
Recently unearthed documents show former President Bill Clinton wanted to meet with Russian high-rollers during a 2010 trip to Moscow during which he was paid a $500,000 speaking fee.
Further reports have said Russia sought to gain influence with the Clintons in 2009, as the deal with Uranium One was nearing its 2010 approval. That effort ended when a Russian spy ring was broken up in 2010.
It has also been revealed that Special Counsel Robert Mueller, appointed to investigate Russia-U.S. connections, is now targeting the Podesta Group, a lobbying firm run by Tony Podesta, the brother of John Podesta, who was former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman.
“When it comes to Russia, it is clear that Democrats and their allies in the mainstream media have been flat out lying to the American people about what is really happening,” Hannity wrote Monday in a column for Fox News that was based on what he said in his monologue.
“It was always just a matter of time before their manufactured hysteria and conspiracy theories blew up in their faces and boomeranged back on the Democrats and the media,” he added. “Well, it is happening now.”
Hannity said the significance of Russia seeking to get close to the Clintons through a spy ring that was busted in 2010 comes in its link to Clinton’s email scandal.
“Think about this: At the exact same time Vladimir Putin and Russia were trying to infiltrate her inner circle, Hillary Clinton was using a private server that had top-secret special access programs, classified national security information on it,” he said.
“Clinton knew what was happening because her office commented on the Russia spy ring bust back in 2010. Yet, she recklessly continued to use the personal server, putting national security at risk.”
The conservative talk show host said that it was no coincidence that “Russian nuclear officials were giving $145 million to the Clinton Foundation. Were they simply feeling philanthropic?”
The question was rhetorical, of course.
“Putin wanted a piece of our uranium supply, our government knew he was illegally (trying) to get it, a former president met with him and pocketed a suspicious speaking fee and, what did our government do? The Obama administration, including Hillary Clinton and then-Attorney General Eric Holder let it happen. In 2010, the Uranium One deal was approved,” he said.
Hannity said he feared that connections among top Justice Department officials who were associated with the episode might keep the truth under wraps.
“If the Department of Justice won’t do its job and expose the Russia scandal, Congress will. Rep. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., says the House Oversight Committee is now investigating this Uranium One deal,” Hannity said, adding that an FBI informant from the time the uranium deal was approved wants to come forward and tell the whole truth.
“The Democrats and their handmaidens in the media should have been more careful about what they wished for,” Hannity concluded. “The Russia collusion story is finally coming out.”
