Funding Iran directly funds terrorism because the Iranian regime is effectively a terror state. Back in the Senate, Obama fought against the classification of the Revolutionary Guard, a key Iranian political-military institution, as terrorists. He's remained consistent since then.
3. This is simply treason. Obama is aiding and abetting the murder of Americans. He's funding terrorism. He's funding Iran's wars in the region, which aside from Israel, include campaigns in Iraq and Syria that have dragged the United States in.
The Obama administration secretly organized an airlift of $400 million worth of cash to Iran that coincided with the January release of four Americans detained in Tehran, according to U.S. and European officials and congressional staff briefed on the operation afterward.
Wooden pallets stacked with euros, Swiss francs and other currencies were flown into Iran on an unmarked cargo plane, according to these officials. The U.S. procured the money from the central banks of the Netherlands and Switzerland, they said.
Note the secretive Air America type tactics.
Since the cash shipment, the intelligence arm of the Revolutionary Guard has arrested two more Iranian-Americans. Tehran has also detained dual-nationals from France, Canada and the U.K. in recent months.

Obama picked up foreign money from foreign banks, put them in an unmarked cargo plane and then flew them to Iran. This is not the normative way of transferring money to foreign governments.
This is the way criminals operate. Criminals like Obama.
...
Iranian press reports have quoted senior Iranian defense officials describing the cash as a ransom payment.
And the best part is it was illegal...
The $400 million was paid in foreign currency because any transaction with Iran in U.S. dollars is illegal under U.S. law.

Congress did nothing to stop Obama.What did they expect him to do?follow the constitution.
Obama could launch a nuke on Isreal and this cowardly congress would do nothing but B.S. About it.
I’m done with the G.O.P. Because of that.
As an Independent I will be voting for Donald Trump.I would do anything to avoid seeing queen hillary occupying the White House.
But in other news Trump didn’t endorse Ryan.
But all anyone is talking about is Trump saying MEAN things about the Khans.
Yeah, well so what? Donald Trump said something that hurt someone's feelings, so let's focus all of the media's attention on that instead.
8 years of Secret Deals with the Scum Of The Earth
Let me get this straight: It's illegal for the U.S. to use our dollars when dealing with Iran, but it is perfectly legal for us to use dollars to purchase Euros and other foreign currency and then use that in dealing with Iran? Sounds like a distinction without a difference.
North should file his lawsuit immediately!
This needs to be the number one story.
How does the capture of that US speedboat with the sailors crying and surrendering fit into this?
Nixon, the crook president lost his DC support because those elected officials in DC did not want to be seen as supporting a crook thus they would also be viewed as crooks. In DC today they are all crooks and they don’t care what the people think anymore. It is way past time to do a thorough clean out of all the DC crooks along with their Wall Street bosses, right down to the janitors who clean the federal buildings. But no, this country is allowing one of the biggest criminals in US history to run for the WH and yes, ANYONE who supports this criminal hag are themselves criminals at heart. We are sooooooooo effed! I see this country going the way of Germany following WW2.
I would hope that a Trump administration would investigate all possibilities of charging Obama, the Clintons and other prominent Democrats with various crimes committed over the past decades. Bring it all to court and deal with it there.
High office should not be considered some sort of automatic amnesty or a ban on investigation.
Maybe it was all a setup to provide Obama with cover for financing the Iranian nuclear operation?
Obama couldn’t just give them $400 million for no reason, but if the Iranians had some hostages, he could justify paying a “ransom” to get them back...
Hand-written note seen attached to each pallet of cash: “To my muzzie homies with love, Val”.
"so my EBT cod steel goan be goot, right?"
Point is there’s a legal cover story (or two, or three) to mitigate charges of treason. That ensures he’s never convicted of the _point_: giving $400B in unmarked _cash_ to _terrorists_.
Leftists are masters of the “one off”: justifying the illegal by rationalization, abusing the vastly complex legal system they’ve built. D@mn near anything is legal if you just know how the system actually works and don’t care to be constrained by it. (A la: “Oh, you want a truckload of new machine-guns? We’ll just ask agency head Mr. Foobar to write a letter declaring you’re acting under the auspices of the Bohica Department, and our guy in BATFE will approve the paperwork per the 922(o) exception. The S/Ns will be guarded as private tax info, so they won’t show up anywhere. Just don’t tell anyone, but considering what you want to do with them I’m sure you won’t.”)
In this country since 2009, it's called the "Federal Income Tax". In other countries, it's called the "Jizya Tax"
AND NOTHING WILL EVER BE DONE ABOUT IT
Everyone I know is absolutely livid by this. What the hell can a person do? Nothing. That's what. Sit down, shut up and take a bite from the big ol $4!7 sandwich.
The ferrule gubbamint has too much power. Power to lock you up and or destroy your life via the IRS. We've been “lawed” into a corner. Patriotic Americans cannot gather and discuss anything...if they do, if their group has been infiltrated by the alphabets, you can be thrown in jail for conspiracy, sedition, threats/intimidation.
The illusion of freedom is what we live under. There are no more days of true freedom of speech and dissent. Don't believe it...go out to your favorite blog and start running your mouth. Depending on what you say, could have a couple of SUVs driving up in front of your house. The gubbamint monitors everything now days.
expect the out right ignoring of us law by Obama to get worse the closer he is to leave office and expect it to get real bad after the election and before the new president takes over.
