US Imported 14% of Its Uranium Back from Russia in 2016 After Hillary Sold Them 20%

In 2010 13 members on the secret CFIUS Court approved the sale of Uranium One to the Russian owned Rosatom.

The CFIUS membership included Hillary Clinton, Robert Mueller, Rod Rosenstein, Robert Gates, Eric Holder and several others. Obama Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner chaired the committee at the time.

The CFIUS Committee, including Hillary Clinton, approved of the sale of 20% of US uranium to the Russians.

In June 2010 Bill Clinton was paid $500,000 for a speech he gave in Moscow.
He later toured the President’s residence in Novo-Ogaryovo.

The Clinton Foundation received $145 million from donors linked to Uranium One and UrAsia at the same time as CFIUS approved the uranium sale to Russia.

The Clintons got rich and the US sold its uranium to Russia

Now this…
In 2016 the US imported 50.6 million pounds of uranium.

In 2012 US nuclear plants bought 58 million pounds of uranium. 83% of the uranium was from foreign sources. 38% of the enriched uranium was purchased from foreign sources.
Via the US Energy Information Administration:

Owners and operators of U.S. commercial nuclear power reactors buy uranium in various forms as well as enrichment services from other countries. U.S. nuclear plants purchased 58 million pounds of uranium in 2012 from both domestic and foreign suppliers; 83% of this total was of foreign origin. About 38% of the enriched uranium needed to fabricate fuel for U.S. reactors was supplied by foreign enrichers.

Today the US imports uranium from several countries including RUSSIA!
