Dems Say Uranium One Key Witness Flops Before Congress, Provided 'No Evidence' on Clinton

Democratic staffers provided The Hill with a summary of what William Douglas Campbell told congressional Republicans during closed-door meetings last month. Campbell is a Florida businessman and ex-lobbyist who GOPers propped up for months because they believed he was a key witness whose testimony would show that Russia used the Obama era deal to bribe Hillary Clinton while she ran the State Department.

Campbell used to be an informant for the FBI during their investigations into Vadim Mikerin - a Russian businessman who worked for a subsidiary of Rosatom, the nuclear power company that purchased Uranium One. Even though Campbell wore a wire in those days, federal investigators determined he was not a credible witness, and they ultimately discarded his testimony from their case.
