Rep. Louie Gohmert, an outspoken House Republican from Texas, is calling for a congressional investigation of John Podesta’s role with Rusnano, a state-run company founded by Russian President Vladimir Putin, The Daily Caller News Foundation’s Investigative Group has learned.
Podesta — Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign chairman and former President Bill Clinton’s White House chief of staff — first made contact with the Russian firm in 2011, when he joined the boards and executive committees of three related entities: Boston-based Joule Unlimited; Rotterdam-based Joule Global Holdings; Joule Global Stichting, the company’s controlling interest. All are high-tech renewable energy enterprises.
Three months after Podesta’s arrival, Joule Unlimited accepted a 1 billion ruble investment from Rusnano, amounting to $35 million in U.S. currency. The firm also awarded a Joule board seat in February 2012 to Anatoly Chubais, Rusnano’s CEO, who has been depicted as a corrupt figure.
One potential legal problem for him relates to the time he joined former President Barack Obama’s White House staff in 2014 as a senior counselor and failed to reveal his 2011 Joule stock vesting agreement in his government financial disclosure form.
Further, he failed to disclose 75,000 common shares of Joule stock he received, as disclosed in a WikiLeaks email.
After Podesta began working at the White House, his lawyer indicated in a Jan. 6, 2014 email that he had not yet finished the legal work on the private transfer of the stock to a family-owned entity called Leonido Holdings, LLC.
Gohmert’s call for an examination of Podesta’s Russian ties comes as Washington is in the grips of a set of allegations about Russian ties to President Donald Trump and his aides, as well as charges of Russian influence during the presidential election.
Gohmert is troubled about the Podesta-Russia connection, telling TheDCNF, “this certainly needs to be reviewed to see if there really is something nefarious going on with these activities.” Gohmert sits on the House Judiciary Committee and is vice chair of its subcommittee on crime, terrorism and homeland security.

Well, well, well...real honest to God scandal!
Here Podesta is describing how his manhood looks compared to the average man...

...oddly enough it is also demonstrating how much the American people trust this POS.

If the democrats accuse republicans of doing something, its likely because they themselves are doing it.

That axiom has been true for decades...yet the E-GOP has yet to grasp it and routinely cover for their pals in the DemonRat party...they must have a lot of embarrassing dirt on them, eh? Maybe it wasn't just DemonRats ordering Comet pizzas...

Methinks an old Cold Warrior's metal is hard to soften...a condition I can understand and appreciate...

...but caveats as to proof aside, by continuing the false meme that Russia helped Trump (while avoiding Clinton & Podesta dealings!) only serves to give fuel to the bogus claims of the Trump Presidency being not entirely legitimate, so once again it's the Red Team/Blue Team/ Same Team (DeepState/BigGov) BS!

The Trump Effect continues to flush them out, eh?

Color me shame-faced. Here all this time I thought Dickhead Cheney was an exception to the belief that everyone in the GW administration were scumbags. I'll never look at him the same way again.

One would think Cheney might have the smarts to know what he is doing to hurt one without cause and to ignore the other with cause is a double-whammy to the interest of Liberty...so one can only assume he doesn't give a shat about that and owes too much to the Deep State apparatus...

Well, fool me once...
