he United States and its negotiating partners agreed "in secret" to allow Iran to evade some restrictions in last year's landmark nuclear agreement in order to meet the deadline for it to start getting relief from economic sanctions, according to a think tank report published on Thursday.

The report, which was released by the Washington-based Institute for Science and International Security, is based on information provided by several officials of governments involved in the negotiations. The group's president David Albright, a former U.N. weapons inspector and co-author of the report, declined to identify the officials, and Reuters could not independently verify the report's assertions.

"The exemptions or loopholes are happening in secret, and it appears that they favor Iran," Albright said.

It should, but the Pinkos who dominate the so-called “news” media won’t make sure that the public never even hears about it (unless it can be twisted into some kind of attack on Trump)

The Uniparty in Washington was fully behind the Iran deal while the GOP made noises to oppose it.

The Corker Bill from Senator Bob Corker (R-TN) set the bar to stop the deal at 2/3 giving plenty of GOP members and Dems, too, the chance to look good and vote against it while the deal went through.

Rush Limbaugh said on his show that big companies like Boeing wanted to do business with Iran and unfreezing billions in assets for that business to take place was paramount.

The AIPAC (Israel Lobby) group still considers Dems who supported the deal in Congress as ‘pro-Israael’ with no electoral consequences for them. The Israel Lobby supports them all.

Opposition to the Iran deal was another ginned up issue to suck conservatives in through the anti-Trump GOPe front “Consevative Media”-”Conservative Movement” in this country.
