"Clinton handing Iran the blueprints to an implosion nuke, with all the numbers multiplied by 1.1, then telling the Russian courier that they had been multiplied by 1.1?"

Edited- I found the reference on the net to the story, sounds like pure hogwash due to several inconsistencies in the story.
First, the Iranians alrealy have design info for a weapon (compliments of A.Q. Khan). They don't need the CIA's or Clinton's help in building a bomb.
Info regarding that has been in the public domain for decades, not the least of which are several pictures readily available on the web-

Very first firing set for "The Gadget" (round tub on aft sphere)-
