Iranian state media reported Thursday that production of 20 percent enriched uranium — the last level before leaping to weapons-grade material — has far exceeded expectations.

Iran is producing half a kilo of uranium enriched  to 20 percent purity per day, the head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization said Monday, constituting a clear violation of the 2015 nuclear accords.

Iran has started work on uranium fuel for a research reactor in the capital of Tehran, the U.N. nuclear watchdog said on Wednesday, constituting the latest violation of the nuclear deal.

Iran announced Monday it has begun enriching uranium up to 20 percent, far beyond the limits set out in the 2015 nuclear accords, a move which Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said proved the Islamic Republic was seeking nuclear weapons.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), nuclear watchdog for the United Nations, reported on Friday that Iran has a stockpile of uranium over ten times the limit set by the Iran nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani bragged on Thursday that Iran is now enriching more uranium than it was before President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday exposed a secret facility in central Iran that he said was used for nuclear weapons research until the Iranians realized Israel knew of its existence. At that point, according to Netanyahu, the site was hastily “wiped out” and the evidence of nuclear research was “destroyed.”

Samples taken by the U.N. nuclear watchdog at what Israel’s prime minister called a “secret atomic warehouse” in Tehran showed traces of uranium that Iran has yet to explain, two diplomats who follow the agency’s inspections work closely say.

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei vowed on Tuesday that Iran will continue violating the nuclear deal until European powers meet Tehran’s demands.

Iran was told on Wednesday by U.S. President Donald Trump to be “careful with the threats” as they could “come back to bite you like nobody has been bitten before!”

The diplomatic chiefs of the EU, France, Germany and Britain said Tuesday they were “extremely concerned” and urged Iran to reverse its decision to breach a limit on enriched uranium reserves under a 2015 nuclear deal.

The Iranian atomic agency confirmed Monday the country will soon exceed the limit for its uranium stockpiles set out in the failed Obama-negotiated JCPOA nuclear accord.

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran quadrupled its uranium-enrichment production capacity amid tensions with the U.S. over Tehran’s atomic program, nuclear officials said Monday, just after President Donald Trump and Iran’s foreign minister traded threats and taunts on Twitter.

The Commerce Department is responding to requests from domestic uranium producers Energy Fuels and Ur-Energy to decide whether imported uranium is a risk to our nation’s safety.

Iran’s stockpile of uranium stands at close to 950 tons despite global bans and a failed nuclear deal with the U.S., the chief of the country’s nuclear agency reassured the nation on Wednesday.

According to a “diplomatic source” quoted by South Korean media, the United States knows where one of North Korea’s two uranium enrichment facilities is located and expects dictator Kim Jong-un to reveal the existence of both facilities to the world and invite international inspections.

“We don’t know what Mueller knew,” said Ron Hosko, former assistant director of the Criminal Investigative Division at the FBI, hedging against assumptions that former FBI Director Robert Mueller was familiar with federal investigations of Russian state attempts to procure uranium assets in the United States and Canada via illicit measures.

On her Saturday Fox News Channel show “Justice,” Jeanine Pirro warned that the United States of America needs to cease the selling of uranium to other countries so Americans are not “held hostage to people who want to kill us.”

The Senate Judiciary Committee is looking into the 2010 sale of U.S. uranium to Russia under then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and whether then-FBI Director Robert Mueller alerted the Obama administration about its investigation into Russians involved in the deal, according to Newsweek.

“Uranium deal to Russia, with Clinton help and Obama Administration knowledge, is the biggest story that Fake Media doesn’t want to follow!” Trump wrote on Twitter.

Iran’s nuclear chief said Saturday that the country had requested to buy 950 tons of uranium concentrate from Kazakhstan over the next three years to help develop its civil reactor program.

Iran has received authorisation from world powers to import 130 tonnes of natural uranium, Iran’s Atomic Energy Organisation spokesman Behrouz Kamalvandi said Thursday.

Iran is once again testing the limits of the nuclear deal, also known as the JCPOA, by stockpiling much more uranium than it needs for civilian energy generation.

Enraged by the 10-year extension of America’s Iran Sanctions Act, which was recently voted through Congress and will likely be signed into law by President Obama, “moderate” Iranian President Hassan Rouhani declared that Iranian nuclear scientists have been ordered to draw up plans for a nuclear-powered surface fleet.

Donald Trump reminded Ohio voters that his rival, Hillary Clinton, allowed a Russian uranium deal that posed a stark conflict of interest.

Breitbart News National Security Editor Dr. Sebastian Gorka, author of the best-selling book Defeating Jihad: The Winnable War, joined Trish Regan on Fox News’ The Intelligence Report to discuss the latest WikiLeaks revelations about the Clinton Foundation. Asked why Hillary

If Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is really down in the state of Florida as the statewide polls seem to suggest, then records could be set for his opponent Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton on Election Day.

A new animated ad, inspired by the New York Times best-selling Clinton Cash: A Graphic Novel, shows how then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton helped transfer 20 percent of America’s uranium stockpile to the Russian government.

President Barack Obama attempted Tuesday to defend the Clinton Foundation against criticism that Hillary Clinton and her husband used it as a vehicle for self-enrichment and bribery, accepting donations from foreigners and companies with business before the State Department.

TEL AVIV – Confronting the U.S. is the only choice Iran has left, Iranian Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani warned Wednesday.

Left-leaning FactCheck.org was forced on Thursday to make an embarrassing correction after they incorrectly attributed a quote from Peter’s Schweizer’s Clinton Cash that never appeared in the book.

If anyone is still keeping score on Barack Obama’s horrible Iranian nuclear deal, the confirmed discovery of weapons-grade uranium particles at the Parchin facility is another major blow.

For more than a year, the mainstream media has failed to ask Hillary Clinton some very basic questions about a series of extremely troubling deals. Why?
