Finally someone has the balls to admit the deal was so one sided, only Obama would have authorized it. Wonder why it was not a "treaty", only an agreement? Cause if the truth was really known, no one in their right mind would have signed it.

What was the deal? Serious question. What’s the truth?

Kerry: Iran’s Frozen Assets Are Far Less Than $150 Billion

“That is a fictional number [and] I don’t know where it comes from,” Kerry said during an interview on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, where he vigorously defended the final agreement with Iran as making the world safer. “They will get about $55 billion over a period of time

Ummm you do realize that was their money we just returned it. How does backing out help was the question posed. How does that help when we have already given the money back.

You switched stories after I posted.

In the first one you referenced the amount supposedly paid to the Iranians for the nuclear deal at $150 billion which I've read is incorrect.

In your edit, you changed that amount to $1.7 billion dollars.

Not to split hairs, but this is also incorrect. Whether you believe the governments claim they were returning money that already belonged to the Iranians or that was it all a bit of subterfuge to hide the payments for the hostages they released, it had noting to do with the nuclear deal either.

John Kerry's statement on the news that asshole (how the fuck was he elected?) was withdrawing from the Iran nuclear accord..

“Today’s announcement weakens our security, breaks America’s word, isolates us from our European allies, puts Israel at greater risk, empowers Iran’s hardliners, and reduces our global leverage to address Tehran’s misbehavior while damaging the ability of future administrations to make international agreements,” Kerry said. “No rhetoric is required. The facts speak for themselves. Instead of building on unprecedented nonproliferation verification measures, this decision risks throwing them away and dragging the world back to the brink we faced a few years ago.”

Kerry added, “The extent of the damage will depend on what Europe can do to hold the nuclear agreement together, and it will depend on Iran’s reaction. America should never have to outsource those stakes to any other country. This is not in America’s interests. We should all hope the world can preserve the nuclear agreement.”

This really is getting sickening.

C'mon Mueller, give us something, any fucking thing to impeach this fucking idiot.

The safety of the world depends on it.
