Iran petitioned the Hague for 10 billion. We haven't paid them anywhere near that amount.

That money belonged to the country of Iran which was hijacked by the Mullahs. These suckers will pocket the money. Is that really too difficult for you to understand?

August 10, 20233 yr Ooops. Republican Congressman Accidentally Admits There’s No Proof of Biden Corruption Republican Representative Nick Langworthy tried to defend the GOP investigation into Joe Biden’s alleged corruption—only to end up admitting that they still don’t have any proof. Republicans have insisted for months that Biden is guilty of corruption and influence peddling overseas, despite producing no actual evidence. But they continue to claim they have proof that he and his son Hunter Biden accepted millions of dollars in bribes. But Langworthy fumbled that point big time on Thursday during an interview with Fox News. Fox correspondent Gillian Turner pointed out that Republicans have yet to produce "a smoking gun: clear-cut, undeniable proof of the president’s involvement.” "Well, we’ve never claimed that we have direct money going to the president, but many members of his family have received money from foreign governments,” Langworthy said. Turner interrupted to correct him: "That is precisely the claim that the chairman of your committee, James Comer, and also Jim Jordan have made many times,” she said, referring to House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan, who alongside Comer has spearheaded the charge against Biden. "We are putting an investigation together laying out the facts on the business dealings of this family,” Langworthy said awkwardly, trying to recover. Langworthy did not fare much better in the rest of the interview. He also said that Hunter Biden’s former business partner Devon Archer had testified to the Oversight Committee under oath, which Turner again pointed out was not true. (And regardless of how he testified, Archer also refuted many of Republicans’ talking points against Joe Biden.) Republicans’ main justification for continuing to investigate Biden is that they already have proof of his wrongdoing and are now just trying to expose the breadth of his crimes. Many Republicans, including House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, are starting to suggest opening an impeachment inquiry into Biden so that they can access more information and witnesses that will lead them to the truth. But Langworthy’s stumble reveals the actual truth: Republicans have nothing on Biden. The reason they keep pushing forward is because they are looking for something to actually substantiate their allegations.

I think most fair minded people would agree that the mullah regime is illegitimate at this stage. Why would anybody release that money to a bunch of criminals? That money should be held in trust for a legitimate regime.

We pulled out of a deal that was working, got nothing for it and, of course, Trump was lying about the "better deal” he was going to get. So we burned our diplomatic capital for nothing. The whole thing is pretty much a case study in why you shouldn’t elect a game show host president. Of course Biden’s a straight up bad ass so I suppose there’s an outside chance he could pull something off despite Trump’s F up but it’s a long shot.

Did you know that Iran "has been on the verge" of breaking out a nuclear weapon since at least as early as 2008. If you did just a cursory amount of Internet research, you'd know that Iran hasn't allowed proper inspections of its nuclear facilities for quite a while now. Best not to comment on things you are ignorant about.

Again, Trump gave them a nuke, plain and simple, and we got absolutely nothing in return. It’s impossible to overstate how stupid it was.
