Biden paying Ransom to Terrorist Iran

Senators Rip Biden’s Secret $6 Billion Payoff To Iran

Federal lawmakers are blasting President Joe Biden's decision to release $6 billion to the terrorist state of Iran, arguing the secret backroom deal will bankroll further terrorism and encourage the Islamic state to kidnap Americans.

Under the deal, the United States will release $6 billion in frozen assets, in exchange for the release of five Americans held prisoner in Iran. Federal law prohibits paying terrorists directly to secure American prisoners.

In a letter to Secretaries Blinken and Yellen, the Senators wrote, “When the Obama Administration released $400 million in liquidated assets to Iran in 2016, we warned that this dangerous precedent would put a price on American lives.”

“Seven years later, the current Democrat Administration is providing a ransom payment worth at least fifteen times that amount to the world's largest state sponsor of terror, in yet another violation of the United States' long-standing ‘no concessions' policy,” the senators write.
