White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough wrote a letter on Saturday night to Senator Bob Corker (and the rest of the U.S. Congress) on behalf of the President regarding the ongoing nuclear talks with Iran.
In the letter, he demands that the U.S. Senate which has constitutional authority in treaty making must step back and let the White House navigate the diplomatic realm with Tehran. The White House argues that the deal is facing imminent collapse because the Congress, by continuing to promote sanctions against the terror regime, will supposedly push Irans hardliners over the edge and force them to leave the negotiating table.
McDonough appears to ensure Congress that they will have a say as part of the final negotiations with Iran.
We agree that Congress will have a role to play and will have to take a vote as a part of any comprehensive deal that the United States and our international partners reach with Iran.

“The White House argues that the deal is facing imminent collapse because the Congress, by continuing to promote sanctions against the terror regime, will supposedly push Irans hardliners over the edge and force them to leave the negotiating table.”
And what does that tell you, White House? Is it possible that it’s telling you that the hardliners have the ultimate control, and thus cutting a deal with Iran is crazy?
I hope the reply by the Senators is, pound sand.
So...oboy is asking mcconnell & boehner? Heaven help us
Demands = begs?

Most likely that there is not going to be a deal so they are trying to make a setup whereby they can huck the turd over onto the shoulders of the GOP.
Personally, I hope there is no deal. Then if we can survive for a few more months, and elect a Conservative, then move forward with military action against Iran’s nuclear sites.
“.........McDonough appears to ensure Congress that they will have a say as part of the final negotiations with Iran.”
Democrat says: “YOU HAVE MY WORD....”
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!
The Dems pleading “oh please don’t stop us from capitulating to the Devil”
Gee, maybe the Senate should have been kept in the loop since they have Constitutional authority.
The RINOs are just itching to surrender to Obama again.
No deal is better than a bad deal - which is all O'barry and his collection of clowns and misfits are capable of securing.
How about a compromise, Obama abandon his exhaustive ‘immigration’ policy, and Congress will step back from foreign relations.
Althou such a deal may end in the nuclear destruction of a few major American cities, that is perhaps better than the foreign cultural replacement of the American population by uncontrolled flood, of non-assimilate, legally non-submissive and disloyal invaders.
Rock and a hard place, and I think we can at least step around the rock.
“Stop interfering with our plan to surrender.”
You can’t trust a word from these slimeballs. I’d tell McDonough to pound sand.
FUBO!
IF the pResent of the White House knew what he could do and couldn’t do, we wouldn’t need 47 members to write a letter to Iran to let them know what OUR policies are.....
wouldn’t ya think??????????????
Stop interfering with my plan to see Tel Aviv, New York and London vaporized.
