Department of Justice head Jeff Sessions told Senator Chuck Grassley Wednesday that his concerns over Hillary Clinton's potential conflicts of interests on the Uranium One deal "will be reviewed."

From Fox News:

A top Senate Republican is probing potential "conflicts of interest" for Hillary Clinton and the Obama administration regarding the 2010 approval of a controversial uranium deal with a Russian company, amid new details about donations from "interested parties" and an FBI corruption probe involving employees of the same Russian firm.

"This committee has an obligation to get to the bottom of this issue," Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, said Wednesday, at the start of a hearing with Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

Grassley on Wednesday released a series of letters he fired off last week to 10 federal agencies, addressing those issues in detail and raising the question of whether the committee that approved the transaction was aware of the FBI probe. The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) included then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Asked about the concerns at Wednesday's hearing, Sessions told Grassley the Justice Department will take "appropriate" actions.

"I hear your concerns and they will be reviewed," Sessions said, without responding directly to a question from Grassley on whether the Justice Department has also probed whether the Russians "compromised" the Obama administration to "smooth the way" for the deal.

"It wouldn't be appropriate for me to comment on any ongoing investigation," Sessions said.

We need some concrete action out of the DOJ.

Just as a reminder, the Obama administration was running guns to Mexico as part of a plot to try and restrict the Second Amendment. Obama's DOJ set up billion dollar slush funds to bankroll liberal activist groups.

Meanwhile, Sessions' DOJ is struggling just to bust criminals. He does deserve credit for busting 412 "new Americans" who defrauded medicaid for $1.3 billion, but now is not the time for half measures and pussyfooting around. We need serious investigations into the Obama administration and the Clinton clan's corruption and we need it now.

Wow, FBI confirms report that James Comey drafted letter exonerating Crooked Hillary Clinton long before investigation was complete. Many..

...people not interviewed, including Clinton herself. Comey stated under oath that he didn't do this-obviously a fix? Where is Justice Dept?

As it has turned out, James Comey lied and leaked and totally protected Hillary Clinton. He was the best thing that ever happened to her!
