"Hillary Clinton gave them 20 percent of our uranium — gave Russia for a big payment."

"Looking back to the uranium deal in question, The Washington Post gave Trump's claim four "Pinocchios," the publication's highest mark for inaccuracy, in its fact-checking analysis.

The Post concluded that Clinton's State Department was merely one of nine other agencies on a committee that was responsible for approving a Russian state-owned nuclear energy agency's purchase of the US's 20% uranium extraction capacity, and that there was no evidence that Clinton was personally involved in the deal."

WHY would we want to give an "enemy" ANY uranium? Isn't that used to make nukes? WHY would we want Russia to have more nukes? The state department should have said NO. EVERY department should have said no.

Actual reading seems to be a lost talent...


"President Donald Trump is trying to deflect criticism over his administration’s alleged ties to Russia. His solution? Tell everyone to look at “crooked Hillary” instead, of course.

Trump tweeted late Monday night: “Why isn’t the House Intelligence Committee looking into the Bill & Hillary deal that allowed big Uranium to go to Russia?”

What’s he talking about? Well, there obviously isn’t an especially presidential level of detail in there. But we presume he’s referring to allegations, first aired in 2015, that the Clinton family benefited from a “pay for play” scheme, whereby U.S. uranium reserves were supposedly transferred to the Russian owners of a mining corporation in return for donations to the Clinton foundation.

One problem, though: it’s false.

Trump probably just gets his information off of the TOTV Political Forum or some other such resource even though he has the nation's intelligence services and those of other's too at his beck-and-call.

Donald Trump inaccurately suggests Clinton got paid to approve Russia uranium deal.

First, the State Department did approve of Russia’s gradual takeover of a company with significant U.S. uranium assets, but it didn’t act unilaterally. State was one of nine government agencies, not to mention independent federal and state nuclear regulators, that had to sign off on the deal.

Second, while nine people related to the company did donate to the Clinton Foundation, it’s unclear whether they were still involved in the company by the time of the Russian deal and stood to benefit from it.

Third, most of their Clinton Foundation donations occurred before and during Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential bid, before she could have known she would become secretary of state.

The bottom line: While the connections between the Clinton Foundation and the Russian deal may appear fishy, there’s simply no proof of any quid pro quo.

Trump has "used" so many good people who want real change.

He has lied himself into office, because in my opinion, so many of his supporters WANTED SO BADLY to have what they could consider a champion.

Trump played on that and sadly continues from the WH.

How could anyone believe one single word that comes out of his mouth. He is using twitter to perpetuate this image of. "superman" by simply spewing things, true or not, to play into people's fears, wishes and dreams.

Our allies and others in the world know he is a liar of epic proportions and especially if HE PERSONALLY is called on his lies.

And they thought Hillary was a choir girl? I don't think so...
