To help clear things up a bit:

In traditional hostage swaps, we get our hostages returned and we return some enemy agents back to their country.
For example, we freed a major Russian arms dealer and in return we got a pothead WNBA player.
But Biden somehow managed to negotiate an even worse hostage deal with Iran in which the Islamic terror state gets $6 billion and we free 5 Iranians… who then remain in the United States: https://www.voanews.com/a/us-grants-conditional-clemency-to-2-iranians-staying-in-us-after-prisoner-swap-status-of-3rd-unclear/7277094.html
Why aren’t they all in Tehran? Because the same folks negotiating a new Iran Deal got us the best deal ever.
Iran gets $6 billion and we get to keep their agents: https://www.algemeiner.com/2023/10/05/biden-pardons-new-york-times-writer-charged-iran-agent-new-influence-operation-exposed/
I’m not sure how the next hostage deal could get any worse, but I have every faith that the Biden administration will find a way. Maybe next time the provisions will also name Iran’s agents to top positions at the Pentagon.
Sorry, that one already happened too: https://www.frontpagemag.com/chief-of-staff-of-pentagon-counterterrorism-office-served-iranian-gov/
Does she still have her job? Obviously.
So maybe in the next deal, Iran gets to name three of its agents as cabinet members. And then the next president.
Folks, we are at war.
It wasn’t 6 Billion dollars Biden gave Iran. It was actually 16 billion....The Six billion was made public, but he kicked in another ten billion a week later, and that was kept fairly quiet.

You shouldn’t post articles like this - they will anger the NeverTrumpers.
Who the he!! Is pulling this clowns strings? Insane communists are running this country!
I’m afraid to ask if it can get any worse.
Totally.

Thank you for posting. That a great article, so I quoted your whole comment for visibility.
I’m shocked our journalists in the USA haven’t broadcast this travesty. Shocked! 😱
Yes we are. Lord help us all.
Paging Joe Biden,
Jimmy Carter is on line 2....
Thanks for spreading it around. I have been trying for a month to get people to grasp that, with little success.
...paging Joe Biden
Valerie Jarret on line 1
She said your message was delivered to Israel and Iran sends their regards.
They needed more after the measly few billions Obama sent them on wooden pallets on US cargo planes:
“The reason that we had to give them cash is precisely because we are so strict in maintaining sanctions and we do not have a banking relationship with Iran that we couldn’t send them a check and we could not wire the money.” (President Barack Obama, 8/4/16)
Money was hundreds of pounds of Swiss francs in cash.
From the Hill, quotes from President Trump:
Said the president in part, “Iran’s hostilities substantially increased after the foolish Iran nuclear deal was signed in 2013 and they were given $150 billion, not to mention $1.8 billion in cash. … Then, Iran went on a terror spree, funded by the money from the deal and created hell in Yemen, Syria, Lebanon, Afghanistan and Iraq. The missiles fired last night at us and our allies were paid for with the funds made available by the last administration.”
((Democrats “quibbled” that not all the money went to terrorists, some was properly owed for the Shah of Iran’s downfall era and so on.))
OBAMA & VALERIE JARRETT-—who was born in IRAN.

Flush Joe and Barack now.
