Sean Hannity melts down over report that the Trump administration is abandoning Uranium One investigation

After report that Trump administration is abandoning Uranium One investigation, Hannity continues to claim there was wrongdoing

Written by Media Matters Staff

Published 01/10/20 10:45 PM EST

According to a report, U.S. attorney John Huber will close the two-year review of the U.S. government’s decision not to block the sale of the company known as Uranium One without bringing charges. According to The Washington Post, “Huber has largely finished and found nothing worth pursuing” and that the inquiry will involve “no criminal charges or other known impacts.”

Fox News was heavily invested in pushing this pseudo-scandal. A main propagator of the conspiracy theory was Fox News’ Sean Hannity, whose show at one point in 2017 was virtually built around it. Following the report about the end of the investigation, Hannity continued to claim there was evidence of wrongdoing by Hillary Clinton.
