Try reading.
You read that entire post and ONE thing you take exception with is the % of uranium?

Because that's the reality. Folks are quibbling over small amts. of uranium.

Folks have no issue with Russia playing like kids with the election but oh no -- don't have less than 3% of the real production of uranium...no uh uh.

That means distruction for the universe.

No congress was not supposed to interview him this week. His attorney said just last week that she was scheduled to be on vacation in California this week (possibly next week as well?) and would then need an extra week or two to discuss his testimony with him prior to speaking in front/being grilled by congress.
Thanks for the update but Wikileaks is your only source regarding Mueller, no other media major media source covered the FBI director carrying uranium to Russia.

Yes, but we do.


See how that works?

Wikileaks is not a credible source? No one debates that Robert Mueller delivered the samples of uranium to Russia. That doesn't even seem to be in question. The fact that the MSM didn't cover it, should tell you all you need to know about the MSM.

Now to be clear, I'm not suggesting it was connected to the U1 scandal. It was a separate issue & may or may not have been nefarious. I was responding to the poster who claimed uranium wouldn't be delivered via airplane. My point is proven, that uranium absolutely could/would be delivered via airplane. Thus my Robert Mueller reference. What should make any reasonable person raise an eyebrow is: why would the Director of the FBI, a domestic law enforcement agency, be specifically requested by the Russians to make said delivery?

Oh the WaPo, nice source. I'll go with the actual US Nuclear Regulatory Commission's own estimate that U1 included “20 percent of the currently licensed uranium in-situ recovery production capacity in the U.S.”

Both Canada and Russia have ample uranium resources ,why the need for America to ship uranium to Russia covertly through Canada ?

Sounds like a big deflection to me.

Oh, that's rich. Do you even know what "in-situ" means? Once, again, try reading - but here is the relevant paragraph from the WaPo no less geezus h c..... it's no gd wonder this country is in trouble - people spewing baseless information all over the internet for the lazy and stupid.

Clue: Production capacity does NOT mean reserves. So, let's try again:
Quote:
“represent approximately 20 percent of the currently licensed uranium in-situ recovery production capacity” in the United States.

But that did not mean 20 percent of U.S. uranium reserves.


In-situ recovery (ISR) is one of two ways to obtain uranium from underground; it’s the main method in the United States. It’s generally used for low-grade ore that would be otherwise too expensive to mine. A solution is pumped into the ore deposit to dissolve the uranium.

The resulting liquid is then pumped back out, dried so it becomes “yellowcake” and placed in 55-gallon drums before it is taken to a uranium conversion facility for eventual use in a nuclear power reactor.

Moreover, the 20 percent number was a 2010 estimate that has now been overtaken by events, such as additional mining licenses being issued. The Energy Information Administration has a current list of ISR projects, and the Uranium One assets now represent much less than 20 percent production capacity because other U.S. operations have been approved.

“The NRC has licensed additional in-situ uranium facilities since the 20-percent figure was estimated (and it was an estimate),” an NRC spokesman said in an email. “Our current estimate would be closer to 10 percent.”

The spokesman added: “Note also that even the original figure does not include conventional mines, and was nowhere near saying they controlled 20 percent of U.S. uranium reserves.”
This issue is WAY TOO COMPLICATED and SCIENTIFIC for any layman to be commenting on.

Until an actual nuclear physicist can demonstrate a clear and present danger to the US by this so-called sale, I call bs on the entire issue.

Default The Story CNN and MSNBC won't cover: Uranium One

The Uranium One scandal in perspective: Bill Clinton Received $500 K from the Putin regime, five times more than it allegedly spent on Facebook ads that the "media-Democrat complex claims swung the election away from Hillary to Donald Trump.

Here's the story that CNN, MSNBC, et al. won't tell you:

Uranium One Deal: Obama Administration Complicit, Not Just | National Review

Notice that the Facebook ad buy began in June, 2015, well before Donald Trump entered the race. But Democrats never let facts get in the way of their lies. The Putin regime paid the $500 K for one speech by Bill Clinton, part of a multi-million-dollar influence peddling scheme to enrich Bill and Hillary (then Secretary of State) in order to gain their approval of the Uranium One acquisition deal.
