In case you haven't heard, Uranium is an international trade item. The USA imports more than it exports, in 2016 the USA imported 14% of it's nuclear fuel from (drum roll please ...) Russia.
Much of the Uranium mined in the USA is said to be of lower grade quality, and less valuable to the market.
This is a free market economy, businesses exist to buy and sell the stuff. It's not that difficult a concept but some people are still mystified by it.
Wait...so once again....the party of business has no flipping idea how business actually works?
So the Dems are accusing Trump of being in bed with Russia while they arranged a back door deal with Russia to give them uranium ?
Maybe this whole Trump-Russia connection, which has still yet to be proven, was a huge deflection.
People seems to be dismissing the uranium deal which happened in favor of finding some crime to impeach Trump with.
Hard to do without flying through the night at some point.
I know, but it makes is SO much more interesting to say they flew in the dark of night. Wonder if Hillary was piloting that plane ?
Oh, BTW, on that money we sent to Iran. It was THEIR money that we grabbed and we were simply returning THEIR property to them. Shows we were not thieves, at least back then.
]At this time, neither Uranium One, Inc. nor ARMZ holds a specific NRC export license, which would authorize them to export uranium to any other country. However, in 2012, RSB Logistics Services, a shipping company, received from the NRC an amendment to its export license to allow it to export uranium from various sources, including the Uranium One, Inc. Willow Creek site in Wyoming, to the Blind River conversion plant in Canada, and then return the uranium to ]the U.S. for further processing. That license stated that the Canadian Government needed to obtain prior U.S. Government approval before any of the U.S. material could be transferred to any country other than the U.S. Subsequently, the U.S. Department of Energy granted approval for some re-transfers of U.S. uranium from the Canadian conversion facility to European enrichment plants.
Funny, no mention of Russia there. FYI Russia has far more Uranium resource than the US, they do not need it, especially this type of specific product.

I'm not sure why you mention that it's low quality, less valuable. Looks like it's profitable anyway.

Bizarro world we live in.
Bizzaro world, is one in which people believe we gave Uranium to the Russians after having been shown time and time again that this never actually happened.

They do not need it, but they thought it was worth buying, with $145 million in donations to Clinton foundations. You people cannot dismiss Uranium One and make all of this go away, by claiming it's just low quality ore, and gee golly wow, the Russians don't really need it anyway.

Yeah, it's perfectly normal for the US government to fly in military planes loaded with pallets stacked with a few hundred million dollars worth of Swiss Francs.
It's not as if we have on-line banking. Nope, we have to trade US dollars for Swiss Francs, and then fly the money around the world.
Oh, and Uranium One? That's just low grade ore that the Russians don't really need anyway, don't ya know.
