But Leftist Privilege will prevent him from ever being held accountable.
The Washington Free Beacon reported Wednesday that the Obama administration skirted key U.S. sanctions to grant Iran access to billions in hard currency despite public assurances the administration was engaged in no such action, according to a new congressional investigation.
And it gets even worse: The investigation, published Wednesday by the House Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, further discloses secret efforts by top Obama administration officials to assure European countries they would receive a pass from U.S. sanctions if they engaged in business with Iran.
This revelation comes after the news that came to light in February, that, according to Bill Gertz in the Washington Times, the U.S. government has traced some of the $1.7 billion released to Iran by the Obama administration to Iranian-backed terrorists in the two years since the cash was transferred.
There is a law that applies to this situation. U.S. Code 2381 says: Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.
In a sane political environment, Barack Obama would be tried for treason.
Barack Hussein Obama has planted seeds that will be bearing bitter fruit for years, and probably decades, to come. He is, without any doubt, the worst President in American history. Fillmore, Pierce, Buchanan? Yes, the doughface Presidents made the Civil War inevitable, but worse came later. Grant? Blind to corruption and out of his depth, but there have been worse than he as well. Wilson? That black-hearted Presbyterian bigot arguably gave the world Hitler and World War II, so he is definitely in the Final Four. Harding? Nah: his tax cuts and return to normalcy got the American economy, and the Twenties, roaring. FDR and LBJ gave us the modern welfare state and dependent classes automatically voting Democrat; the full bill on the damage they did hasnt yet been presented. Nixon? A crook and an economic Leftist, who betrayed Taiwan for the Peoples Republic; his record certainly isnt good. Carter? Nothing good can be said about his four years of sanctimony and incompetence.
But there is one thing Barack Obama has on all competitors: treason.
He showered hundreds of billions of dollars on the Islamic Republic of Iran. There are those who say, It was their money. It belonged to the Iranian government but was frozen and not paid since 1979. Indeed, and there was a reason for that: not even Jimmy Carter, who made the Islamic Republic of Iran possible, thought that money, which had been paid by the Shahs government in a canceled arms deal, belonged to the mullahs who overthrew the Shah. Likewise Reagan, George H. W. Bush, Clinton, and George W. Bush all thought that the Islamic Republic was not due money that was owed to the Shah.
Only Barack Obama did.
The definition of treason is giving aid and comfort to the enemy. The leaders of the Islamic Republic of Iran order their people to chant Death to America in mosques every Friday, and repeatedly vow that they will ultimately destroy the United States of America and the state of Israel. How was giving them billions and helping them skirt sanctions applied by the U.S. government not treason?
Other Presidents have been incompetent, corrupt, dishonest, but which has committed treason on a scale to rival the treason of Barack Obama?
The Iranians also operate a global network of jihad terror organizations, one of which, Hizballah, is quite active in Mexico now, with the obvious ultimate intention of crossing the border and committing jihad massacres of Americans. Obama has given a tremendous boost to these initiatives, as well as to Irans nuclear program, with his nuclear deal that has given the Iranians hundreds of billions of dollars and essentially a green light to manufacture nuclear weapons, in exchange for absolutely nothing.
There is no telling when the worst consequences of Obamas aid and comfort to the Islamic Republic of Iran will be felt. But they likely will be felt in one way or another. Even as President Trump moves swiftly to restore sanctions and put Iran on notice that its nuclear activity and global adventurism will not be tolerated, those billions cannot be recovered, and the Iranians have already spent a great deal for their jihad cause.
However this catastrophe plays out, there is one man who will suffer no consequences whatsoever: Barack Obama. Thats Leftist Privilege. Its good to be a powerful Leftist in Washington nowadays. Laws? Pah! Laws are for conservatives.
None of the other presidents were muslims. That’s why Iran got their money.
Notice however there are No black mass shooters
They’re always white males or musliks
What?
That the greatest jihad EVER was conducted from the White House, at the infidels expense?
The world of islam is still laughing at America’s ignorance.
Thank God that President Trump stepped up to the plate and took control from Hillary.
Christian Western European man and his descendants would have been cooked!
MSNBC snowflakes will 'miss' this story...
Bttt.

HOORAY Robert Spencer!!!
The reason Trump should release his tax records is that he said that after the audit he would. He made the statement despite no law requiring it.
that’s not treason it’s murder. Selling the rockets to ISIS or IRAN was treason.
An old joke comes to mind that followed the Polish Pope but the punch line is all that is important. God was asked after the Polish Pope if there would ever be a Black Pope and God answered of corse there would, but mind you maybe not in My lifetime.
Therin is the answer to your question.
We need to pick someone else’s lifetime.
Do you have a reference for that? I don't recall him ever saying he would. I do remember him saying several times he was not required to reveal them.
His campaign released this several times
At there end of this one he is vague but in context “you’ll be very happy” that’s what chuck todd is asking when will you release them.

FEBRUARY 27, 2016:
Trump revisits the audit argument on Twitter.
“Tax experts throughout the media agree that no sane person would give their tax returns during an audit,” he said. “After the audit, no problem!”

Tell Obama we won’t hang him if he produces the ORIGINAL paper copy of his birth certificate, the one actually signed and witnessed in original pen & ink. Otherwise, measure his neck...in inches, not metric.
“Leftist Privilege”
It’s not leftist privilege.
It’s a now-legitimate, extra-legal, extra-constitutional leftist government that operates with a power
that intimidates and coerces by way of threats and propaganda.
IMHO
I missed that. Do you mean that the 9/11 terrorists were actually from Iran (and not Saudi Arabia)? Got a link?
I do remember that.(now) Thanks.
Its only starting.
Conspiring to coverup Hillary’s Treason is Treason itself, and penalties merely for mishandling so many top secret documents is several hundred year sentence by itself.
Half the obama administration should be going to jail as well.
Barry Soetoro, like all men, has an appointment with the Judge God. He will not get away with anything. He persists at this point because his cup of Wrath is not yet full.
Only God at this point is capable of justice for Barry’s level of treason. But we have a promise, Vengeance is God’s, and He will repay.
Yeah, that's why they're dead.
