Barack Obama came into office looking to be Vladimir Putin's BFF. One of his first actions in office was to scrap a proposed missile shield for Eastern Europe. During his 2012 re-election campaign, Obama had declared that the Taliban was decimated, He had already declared the war in Iraq over, and ISIS was the JV.
He lied about every one of them. Then he went on to vigorously defend Russia.
During one of the debates, Mitt Romney named Russia as the number one geopolitical foe. In response, Obama scolded Romney for his naive view:

The Cold War is over. The 80's want their foreign policy back. Russia was no threat. That wasn't the end of it. Obama promised to be more flexible for Putin:

That still wasn't the end of it. obama learned of Russian meddling in US elections in 2015- at least- and did not one thing about it (Until after the election).
And that's still not all.
The US does not have enough uranium
Two Colorado-based uranium producers on Tuesday jointly asked the US Department of Commerce to investigate uranium imports that they said threaten national security, saying uranium from state-owned and state-subsidized companies in Kazakhstan, Russia and Uzbekistan fill nearly 40% of US demand while domestic production meets less than 5%. "The domestic uranium mining industry needs US government assistance to survive the foreign onslaught -- particularly from Russia and Kazakhstan -- that has undermined the US uranium industry while new players -- particularly China -- will soon make the situation worse," Energy Fuels and Ur-Energy said in a petition they jointly filed with the department.
Despite that, the obama administration, including Hillary Clinton, decided that it would be a good idea to sell control of 20% of US uranium to Vladimir Putin. Some key points:
- Investors with ties to Uranium One and UrAsia donated millions to the foundation in 2010 and 2011. These donations were disclosed. In addition to this, Bill Clinton was paid $500,000 to speak in Moscow in June 2010, the same month that the Russians closed the deal for the majority stake in Uranium One. The speaking fee was one of Clinton's highest, according to The Times.
- The concern was American dependence on foreign uranium. The Times notes that while the US "gets one-fifth of its electrical power from nuclear plants, it produces only around 20% of the uranium it needs, and most plants have only 18 to 36 months of reserves."
- Four members of Congress signed a letter expressing concern over the deal, and two others drafted legislation to kill it. One senator contended that the deal "would give the Russian government control over a sizable portion of America's uranium production capacity" as well as "a significant stake in uranium mines in Kazakhstan." The Nuclear Regulatory Commission made assurances that the US uranium would be preserved for domestic use regardless of the deal.
- Final say over the deal rested with the foreign investment committee, "including Mrs. Clinton whose husband was collecting millions of dollars in donations from people associated with Uranium One," The Times notes.
- After the deal was approved in October 2010, Rosatom's chief executive, Sergei Kiriyenko, said in an interview with Russian President Vladimir Putin: "Few could have imagined in the past that we would own 20% of US reserves."
And money poured into the Clinton Foundation. (Excerpt) Read more at floppingaces.net ...

If “Obama” did not have the Order of Lenin by 2010 at the latest, there’s no justice.

Who, in their right mind, would make such a deal?
Likewise, Iran?
Likewise, ISIS?
Who cares,seemingly, more about illegal occupiers than the legal citizens?
Something stinks real bad.

Obozzo is a Marxist and loyal the creed of Lenin and Stalin.
If it had not been for the Palin inspired fightback of 2010 and Trump calling him out from 2015 Obozzo would have taken us under a Commie dictatorship

He’s just the poster boy and leader for the marxist -muslim coalition, “death to America” crowd.
That is why Hillary and him gave up so many things on Americas safety security and prosperity.
That is why Benghazi as their attack on Western Christian European man and his descendants.
All at America’s expense.

“Barack Obama came into office looking to be Vladimir Putin’s BFF. One of his first actions in office was to scrap a proposed missile shield for Eastern Europe. “
Actually, that missile battery was supposed to be designed to prevent an Iranian missile from attacking us or Europe. Removing is wasn’t pro-Russian, it was pro-Iranian.
