As a public service announcement, for the sheep
who get their 'news' from Bullshit Mountain, therefore only seeing what the Repub propagandists WANT them to see, here are the facts on the Trump dossier and the Uranium sales that the clowns are bitching about, provided by a Denver Post Letter writer.
(1) The opposition research on Donald Trump was originally compiled by Paul Singer, a major GOP donor who did not want Trump to be the nominee; he stopped when Trump was nominated. The Clinton campaign continued it using a British spy who was an M16 Russian expert. Doing opposition research is a staple of candidates from all parties.
2) The purchase by Russia of Uranium One needed to be approved by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, of which the State Department was one of nine agencies that approved the purchase. Russia does not have a licence to export uranium outside the U.S., so it had no impact on national security and the purchase was approved in part to get Russia on board with the Iran nuclear deal. Secretary Hillary Clinton most likely was not asked to weigh in, as the purchase was not considered controversial at the time.
