The Obama Administration’s Uranium One Scandal

Andrew C. McCarthy

"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 Facebook-ad buy, which started in June 2015 — before Donald Trump entered the race — was more left-wing agitprop (ads pushing hysteria on racism, immigration, guns, etc.) than electioneering. The Clintons’ own long-time political strategist Mark Penn estimates that just $6,500 went to actual electioneering. (You read that right: 65 hundred dollars.) By contrast, the staggering $500,000 payday from a Kremlin-tied Russian bank for a single speech was part of a multi-million-dollar influence-peddling scheme to enrich the former president and his wife, then–secretary of state Hillary Clinton. At the time, Russia was plotting — successfully — to secure U.S. government approval for its acquisition of Uranium One, and with it, tens of billions of dollars in U.S. uranium reserves.

"Here’s the kicker: The Uranium One scandal is not only, or even principally, a Clinton scandal. It is an Obama-administration scandal." . . . Read more here.

'Another missile test will mean WAR' Shock warning of Chinese BLITZ on North Korea

"CIA chief Mike Pompeo said on Thursday that North Korea could be only “months” away from gaining the ability to hit the United States with nuclear weapons."

Jinping

"President Jinping was said to be "boiling with fury" after North Korea recently tested a missile just as China was gearing up to host a pivotal global economic conference. 
"The former US ambassador to China Max Baucus recently claimed the only time he saw the Chinese leader use "undiplomatic language" was in relation to Kim Jong-Un.
"Professor Sho-Hu, who has ties to China's defence and foreign affairs establishment, suggested that the time may have come for a military solution to the problem. 
"He said: "The Chinese government is mad, China’s top leader is mad. China wants to punish North Korea.
" 'China once had special relations with the Soviet Union but they had war with that country.
" 'They also had a very special relationship with Vietnam but then they had a war with them in 1979
" 'The relationship between China and North Korea is worse than both of those.
" 'I will say, there are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies.' " . . .

UPDATE....NFL HELL: Several Stadiums Nearly Empty As Anthem Protest Backlash Rolls Into Week 7 (PHOTOS)

The thing to be sure of is the time these photos were taken. Are photos taken after kick-off and not just before or after the game?

The Gateway Pundit  "Several NFL stadiums are nearly empty post kick-off as the National Anthem controversy rolls into week 7. 
"Plenty of empty seats visible at the Hard Rock Stadium in Florida as the New York Jets play the Miami Dolphins."

"If the NFL thought Americans would ease the backlash against the league — they were sadly mistaken. Photos of empty stadiums from around the league show how dire a situation kneelers have spurred. Stadiums were nearly empty in Week 6, as well." . . . 


In a search for Oct 22 crowd photos this one came up, but Rams-49ers (it appears) was Sept 21:

Good luck protecting these people
