“includes the release of five Iranian citizens held in the U.S.”
So...Iran gets 5 prisoners back, plus 6 billion dollars?
That Biden bunch is a shrewd bunch, USA in a lose/lose deal!

Biden continues the Obama tradition of negotiating with enemies like a drunk girl at a frat party.

I understand all five were dual citizens, Iran/US. Were they being held in prison? Had they committed any crimes in Iran?? Or were they living in their homes in Iran wanting a free ticket back to the USA??

$6 billion is a lot of money Iran can use for their nuke program.

A going rate of over a billion an American prisoner?

Sounds like time for Iran and friends to take a few more American prisoners!

No mention of the names of the Iranians given to Iran, or explanation of why one is going to a third country and two are remaining here in the US?

Very curious about the two remaining and what they were charged with in the US in the first place.

Key thread. Of this group of five, only Namazi even remotely deserved to be freed, and none were worth a fraction of the price paid.

Iran has absurdly instructed Hamas that The White Hospice will pay even more for the kidnapped Americans, without even including the rest!

What was the takeaway from the Imbecile's press confab today?

"Since the president’s last statement on Saturday afternoon, Biden announced Monday that he has “deployed experts” to help “consult with and advise Israeli counterparts on hostage recovery efforts.”

No forces on readiness, no national prayer plea, no attempt at unity, NOPE, the White Hospice just completely telegraphed to Hamas -- we are going to give you more hostage payoffs. Like billions. You all wait and see.

Stephen Miller, you need to have President Trump pre-empt this with a flaming arrow shot over The White Hospice bow this coming Monday in Iowa.

"Anyone in the United States Government who pays ransom, who even talks ransom, for any American hostage, will be prosecuted under 18 US Code §2339B by the TrumpII Administration and taken into federal custody on Day One. Yugely.

And I quote: "The Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 added specific code to the Federal criminal law directly prohibiting the so-called President Biden from negotiating with terrorist. 18 USC §2339B prohibits facilitating material support to designated foreign terrorist organizations when discussing no ransom nor negotiations with terror groups who kidnap US persons for money. On Day One of the TrumpII Administration, I will force Hamas to release ALL of their prisoners, and WITHOUT a single. American. dollar. paid. in. ransom."
