Default Uranium Deal? Another Trump lie....

Trump and his campaign claim that Clinton “gave” or “handed over” 20 percent of American uranium rights to the Russians. Through the Uranium One deal, the Russian state-owned nuclear energy company does now have control over 20 percent of U.S. uranium extraction capacity. But it cannot export the uranium.

In 2010, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States approved the sale of the majority of the shares to the Russians. The State Department was one of nine agencies on the committee that approved the deal. The deal was also separately approved by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

There is no evidence Clinton herself got involved in the deal personally, and it is highly questionable that this deal even rose to the level of the secretary of state. Theoretically, as Schweizer says, Clinton could have intervened. But even then, it ultimately would have been Obama’s decision whether to suspend or block the deal.

To date there are no credible felony charges against Hillary Clinton.

To date there are many lawsuits and liens against Trump Enterprises for non-payment of work done, fines against Trump Foundation for illegal payments to politicians, fines paid by the Foundation that were assessed by the courts against Trump Enterprises, and the admission by the Trump Foundation that it used Foundation money to purchase goods that embellished Trump himself.
