IMPORTANT READ!!-----Uranium One Deal: Obama Administration Complicit, Not Just Clintons| National Review

Uranium One Deal: Obama Administration Complicit, Not Just | National Review
"Not only the Clintons are implicated in a uranium deal with the Russians that compromised national-security interests.
Let’s put the Uranium One scandal in perspective: 
The cool half-million bucks the Putin regime funneled to Bill Clinton was five times the amount it spent on those Facebook ads — the ones the media-Democrat complex ludicrously suggests swung the 2016 presidential election to Donald Trump.

The Obama administration, with Secretary Clinton at the forefront but hardly alone, was knowingly compromising American national-security interests.
The administration green-lighted the transfer of control over one-fifth of American uranium-mining capacity to Russia, a hostile regime — and specifically to Russia’s state-controlled nuclear-energy conglomerate, Rosatom. 
Worse, at the time the administration approved the transfer, it knew that Rosatom’s American subsidiary was engaged in a lucrative racketeering enterprise that had already committed felony extortion, fraud, and money-laundering offenses..."
