Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas) is seeking to fine the State Department for illegally withholding the release of a key report on Iranian human rights abuses that was supposed to be released earlier this year, but was withheld, according to sources, in order to appease Iran as negotiations over its nuclear program approach a June 30 deadline.
Angered by this delay, Cruz is gearing up to file legislation this week that would fine the State Department 5 percent of its budget for every 30 days it postpones releasing the report, according to a copy of the bill viewed by the Free Beacon.

Of course, once they release it, the budget gets restored, including retroactive funding.
It was Contempt of Congress.
Will a fine really matter?
Why is no one ever put in prison for lying and
with-holding docs?

Ted Cruz Ping! How about taking away Kerry’s bicycle for a month? And no ice cream.
I will vote for the person who forces accountability.
Right now, Cruz has my vote.
And Hillary is dead last
Where is Kerry anyway? He can’t be out of commission for a month due to a broken leg. He really is a sissy.
This traitor sold out his country for his pals at Goldman Sachs , Hedge Funds Billionaires, and Semiconductor Billionaires..
John F’ing Skerry has to present this report in person? What’s he gonna do, read it to us?
This is ridiculous. The report could be released via a .pdf on the State Department’s web site and a press release.
I guess Skerry wants to “present” the report so he can downplay the bad parts.
The fact this report has been held since Feb 25, four months, tells me it will not be good for nobama and his effort to give Iran the bomb. (FWIW, I suspect they already have it.)
Good.
