These frickers are intentionally doing this, allowing millions of illegals to cross border unchecked, throwing billions around the world except here, holding down our oil & gas industry, handing decision making authority to WHO, the list is long.... to intentionally weaken America. They want America diminished so their NWO can become a reality.
EVERYTHING they do hurts America.

No negotiation skills. Spending money like it’s not there’s.

This is not a Griner situation.

The five Americans appear to have been arrested and been convicted of espionage for the horrible crime of being Americans visiting family in Iran. The US absolutely SHOULD be trying to repatriate them. I would have preferred to leave Griner in Russia indefinitely.

The $6 billion is not US money. It is Iran's money, sitting in Iranian accounts in South Korea, that we have caused to be frozen. The deal would involve our releasing the "hold" on those Iranian funds, on the condition that the funds be spent on "humanitarian" endeavors ... whatever that means.

I cannot find any info about the Iranians who are to be released here. Most articles do not even mention a prisoner exchange. Anyone have a link identifying them or their crimes?

It isn't. It is Iran's money that we have caused to be frozen.

6 billion is six billion. What are the possibilities of 100 million being used to retrieve the correct way by guys dedicated in this matter. Could correct future problems

More like $1BB and Joe and Co skim the rest. He just incentivized the kidnapping of Americans. What a dope.

Of course that means they can repeat the con again and again.
