Iran's Cash and Gold payments from Obama, Remember the uproar from MSM and Congress? Oh. . .

Interesting how everyone in the House and the Senate were mums when it came to this massive amount of money. Can you believe the outrage if Trump tried something like this or the Uranium One deal with the Russians? Pretty sure you have to have a certain letter next to your name to get a free pass. Something how both Hillary and Obama's stuff was constantly just passeD through without another look. Ahhh, hush money, always aiDs in getting things done hanDily!

Remember when the Obama Administration was working out a deal with Iran on their nuclear accord? Then Iran was receiving $700 million every month. Remember the pallet of cash and all the odd attempts at explaining? Supposedly when speculation arose it was for the hostages, oh, no the Obama administration said, not at all. . .of course the policy was sited that ransoms are not paid out because then it becomes a way to encourage more hostage situations and terrorism. Yet, the hostages were released. Obama did his best to explain it all away as money owed for years and attempted to get MSM to explain it away as interest. There were many different currencies used wilst Obama's cohorts tried to claim was due to wiring laws they needed to get around and how much Iran just needed that cash. I suppose you can't trace cash which does seem far more beneficial when you have are required to stay within a nuclear deal and checks are going to be made (or so they are told).

The obvious concept of cash payments making it a bonus for Iran to circumvent more balances and checks is agreed upon by subcommittee chairman Rep. Sean Duffy (R-WI), noting that Obama’s cash payments rendered the money given to Iran “untraceable.” Duffy stated, “The Iranians wanted hard, cold cash going to their military to fund their terrorist network,”

According to the Washington Free Beacon,
"A total of $11.9 billion was ultimately paid to Iran, but the details surrounding these payments remain shrouded in mystery, according to Mark Dubowitz, executive director at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.

In total, "Iran may have received as much as $33.6 billion in cash or in gold and other precious metals," Dubowitz disclosed.

"If the White House could only send cash to Iran from the start of the JPOA period through the Tribunal payment that could amount to a grant total of 33.6 billion," he said. "Did any of this money go through the formal financial system? If so, the administration is not being truthful about the 1.7 billion. If many billions arrived in Iran on pallets [of cash] this would be a pretty astounding revelation."

Michael Rubin, a former Pentagon official and expert on rogue regimes, said that cash payments of this nature are "highly irregular."

"There’s no reason it needed to be paid now. After all, successive administrations, both Democratic and Republican, have delayed payments so as to avoid funding Iranian terrorism," Rubin said. "Likewise, if the United States freezes accounts linked to al Qaeda or Hamas, releasing it and saying, ‘It’s their money anyway,’ would not be a tenable explanation. Cash payments are highly irregular."

The Iranians have been clear that they "perceived the payment to be a ransom" despite the administration’s protestations, Rubin explained.

"Not only has the delivery of the millions of dollars been perceived as a ransom, provided as an incentive to seize more hostages …. but because the money was delivered in cash the payment bolstered the strength of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and augmented its ability to finance and conduct terrorism," he said.

Interestingly enough, it appears it was admitted to have been used as leverage as demonstrated by Brietbart when they considered ABC's, "amusing way of rendering the administration’s hard-won admission that the initial payment was indeed a ransom for hostages:"

This was the statement by ABC, "The Obama administration had claimed the events were separate, but recently acknowledged the cash was used as leverage until the Americans were allowed to leave Iran. The remaining $1.3 billion represented estimated interest on the Iranian cash the U.S. had held since the 1970s. The administration had previously declined to say if the interest was delivered to Iran in physical cash, as with the principal, or via a more regular banking mechanism."

Breitbart states, "Also confirmed: Iran’s loot was taken from the Treasury Department’s Judgment Fund, which allowed the administration to circumvent Congress yet again. McCarthy persuasively argues that it was also a blatant violation of federal law because paying the mullahs off with piles of foreign currency doesn’t actually bypass the sanctions that are still in effect."

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) reminds us where Obama’s pallets of cash are going: “President Obama’s disastrous nuclear deal with Iran was sweetened with an illicit ransom payment and billions of dollars for the world’s foremost state sponsor of terrorism.”

“President Obama’s secret $400 million ransom payment to Iran already set an incredibly dangerous precedent, and news that it was followed by two more plane loads of cash only makes this blunder even worse,” said Trump campaign spokesman Jason Miller, as quoted by Fox News. “Hillary Clinton’s support for President Obama’s approach to Iran, including the deeply flawed nuclear deal she helped spearhead, reflects the same bad judgment that characterized her foreign policy decision-making as Secretary of State.”

I don't know about you, but I smell a rat! At the very least something's quite fishy and apparently there are documents out there that can prove Iran was cheating on their nuclear deal! That smell is becoming quite rank! Please let me know your thoughts in the comments below. Godspeed!
