Senior Obama administration officials in their final days in office are seeking to cover up key details of the Iran nuclear deal from Congress, according to documents and sources who spoke to the Washington Free Beacon about continued efforts by the White House to block formal investigations into secret diplomacy with Tehran that resulted in a $1.7 billion cash payment by the United States.
As leading members of Congress petition the Obama administration for answers about what many describe as a $1.7 billion “ransom” payment to Iran, Obama administration officials are doubling down on their refusal to answer questions about the secret negotiations with Iran that led to this payment.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R., Fla.), a vocal opponent of last year’s nuclear deal with Iran, has been seeking answers from senior Obama administration officials since at least late September.

By any sane assessment, giving your enemies billions of dollars to destroy the US and Israel is the biggest scandal of all time.
More islamist duplicity from the enemy islamist CIC.
And demonstrates how thoroughly corrupt the MSM is for not investigating and reporting on this. You can bet that if this were a Republican the corrupt MSM would dig and go wall-to-wall with it. Remember the reporter who bought a house next to Sarah Palin? Or the NY TIMES asking its readers for help investigating the Palins? But Democrats... nothing.
You can take it to the bank that Trump will air out everything those crooked bastards did.
Especially if BO stays in Washington and fights everything Trump tries to do. Trump will shut him up.
bammy betrayed his country.
Exactly. I don’t think the man child has any idea who he’s dealing with.
Especially if BO stays in Washington and fights everything Trump tries to do. Trump will shut him up.”””
