A far left wing OPINION rag is not a reliable link. It was NOT their own money. It was United STates taxpayers CASH and a lot of it was used to finance the terrorist attack on Israel.
You watch FOX as if it were news.
You must really hate facts.
I OWN the facts. And facts don't care about your feelings, Adolf.
What you think are facts are your opinions...you just can't seem to find anyone to back those up....

Paying Ransom to Iran
A day after the deal with Iran over its nuclear program was implemented in January, the Obama administration paid $1.7 billion to Iran to settle an old Iranian claim (unfinished business from the 1970s). At the same time, the Islamic Republic released four Americans it held in prison. The timing...www.hudson.org
Let's look at the details. Administration spokesmen argue that the $400 million paid out was Tehran's money to begin with. But that's not true. The $400 million was a payment received from the shah of Iran for a weapons deal with Washington that was never consummated because he was toppled by the Islamic revolution in 1979. Thus Washington held the money. Later, American victims of Iranian terrorism won judgments against the Islamic Republic in U.S. courts, and the Clinton administration, as a Newsweek article reported in January, promised that the settlements would be paid out of the $400 million. But the Clinton White House never reimbursed the Treasury Department, nor did the Bush administration. The $400 million that Obama aides say belongs to Iran should have long ago been distributed to Iran's American victims and their families. Instead, it was U.S. taxpayers who compensated the victims of Iranian terror. And then we paid $400 million a second time, in January, to the Iranians themselves. The $1.3 billion of interest that the United States is supposed to have owed the Iranians is simply a fiction the Obama administration contrived to sweeten the pot, since the United States was under no legal obligation to pay Iran money that was no longer Iran's. Yes, it was ransom, billed to the U.S. taxpayer.
But Krauthammer says the revelation that the administration was sent funds – not hard currency - to Iran just two days later raises more questions than it answers: “The president says that we have to send the 400 million in cash because we don't have a banking relationship and we can't write a check. Two days later, they wire the money or they send a check through the banking system, uh, and you say we couldn't do it because of sanctions, well the sanctions were still in place two days later.Krauthammer on Obama administration Iran payment: 'Can they not stop lying about this?'
Syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer said Wednesday on “Special Report with Bret Baier” that the Obama administration’s acknowledgement it paid $1.3 billion in interest to Iran just days after sending the $400 million hard currency raises the question “can they not stop lying about this?”www.foxnews.com
“This is one lie after another, and it's an administration attempting to cover its tracks, not because anything illegal happened here, although that's possible, but because it's hugely embarrassing. And it just, I mean Iran has been taking advantage of this knowing that this administration can be walked all over humiliated be forced to abandon all its red lines, for example can launch missiles, we say and do nothing, with impunity.”
Two completely different and diverse sources prove you WRONG.
Any intelligent American would be scared to have the Democrats back in power EVER, not just Nov 3rd. They are the FOURTH REICH, and America cannot handle two years of NATIONAL SOCIALISM, Adolf.
There was a court judgment saying the U.S. did owe billions, and the U.S. settled with Iran for pennies on the dollar.You have NEVER presented any FACTS whatsoever. I have and I always back them up with reliable sources.

Trump already recreated concentration camps and is aggressively populating them with asylum seekers and critics of the regime.

You happen to think Trump earning $2 billion from his crypto business is not indicative of corruption, even when substantial investments in it came from the UAE and Qatar? His dinners for investors in his meme coin, giving access to non-citizens is not corrupt? His son had a $5 billion deal with Qatar to build a golf course...oh, and they paid in bitcoin....
You sound hysterical....I like it!
I don't remember anyone "excusing" Biden for the inflation, I do remember economists offering differing opinions....one was that the late government stimulus spending in December 2020 and in mid 2021 caused a surge in spending. Another was that the surge in spending came at the end of the pendemic and inflation jumped in 2022...Take your pick.
See above /\....NOISE
