#3 Thought they would have at least run this money through the Clinton Foundation and labeled it "money for the children of Iran and the new baby milk factory."

#4 $400M in Euros will fund a lot of missions in Europe. Merkel and the rest get what they deserve with their globalist multicultural ridiculous leadership.

#6 Geez, the Demicrits spent almost ten years trying to hang some kind of Iran Contra thing on Reagan and never found anything more interesting than Oliver North.

This makes all of those "hidden conspiracies" of the Reagan years look like chump change...and it won't make it above the fold on the WaPo fish wrap as they have to reserve that to bash Trump for everything from eating KFC with a fork to breathing oxygen

#8 Obama is a liar. Textbook definition of materiel support to terrorism...um, disguised as a ransom payment...um, rationalized as a business settlement that "actually saved us money!

"US officials conceded that the Iranian negotiators involved in the prisoner exchange said they wanted the cash to coincide with the release of the Americans to prove a deliverable for the exchange" "It's not surprising that Iran would want to call this a ransom for domestic political reasons."

They probably have a whole fleet of them to service the Mexican drug cartels.
