White House: We’re Not Incentivizing Iran to Take Hostages with Deal, Iran Already Sees Value in Taking Hostages
Breitbart ^ | 08/13/2022 | Ian hatchett

Other nations don’t need to take hostages to get money from the Democrats.

They just need to let the Democrats come into their country and commit crimes.

Then they can blackmail them and receive US Taxpayer money.

The final straw in knowing we're a banana republic hellhole is when most citizens hate and fear their corrupt 'leaders' and each year those leaders become more hated and more thuggish.

Nobody believes anything coming from the White House. Even talking turd collections such as CNN/MSNBC don’t believe. However, they are very good at lying about it.

Crazy. They’re just upping the asking price. Great job, Joe. Biden is stupid and doesn’t want to effectively deal with the never ending Iranian crisis which inevitably ends with a nuclear armed Iran.
