“Where did the dough come from?”
The State Department misplaced and lost some $6 billion due to the improper filing of contracts during the past six years, mainly during the tenure of former Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, according to a newly released Inspector General report.
Were there any heads that rolled - nope = Sanctioned.
Some of it probably came from this “rainy day fund” they created — You know, to avoid pesky things like oversight.
The money on the pallets was Swiss francs, euros and other currencies. If they had been U.S. dollars, it would have been a violation of Federal law if it was discovered to be ransom money. Obama protected himself by making sure it was not U.S. dollars in that shipment.
The hostages told of sitting in the airplane waiting to take off. They were told the plane would not take off until another plane had landed. That plane held the money shipment. If that plane had not landed, the hostages would not have left the airport and would not have been released. Folks, 2 + 2 = 4.
Don’t focus on the wood pallets. Focus on the money. The money was Swiss francs, euros and other currencies. Why wasn’t it U.S. dollars? Now, go and do your homework.
The answer is in my post #22.
Well, OFFICIALLY it’s a piece of a payment made against a lawsuit in the so called World Court, but surely this couldn’t be paid without some corresponding allocation by Congress. UNOFFICIALLY of course yes it was a ransom, that’s how both Obama and Iran treated it.
One piece missin in your inquirey, how do we REALLY know it was only 400 million
for example, Monica only gave bj’s, says who ? A rapist ???????
Go here to put some focus on the money:
Here is the money fact:
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.
So Obama deliberately dodged the law by using foreign currency from foreign banks and hiding the smuggling operation from Americans.
Could this be a cunning move by Trump who jolly well DID see that video (if not another one) but “apologized” anyhow in order to propel the issue into prime time.
Can Congress abrogate its own law to authorize this kind of payment? Otherwise this sure looks like not just a smoking gun but a whole smoking armada.
What I hope is the alternative media will start dissecting this event so that the real truth emerges. Then, we will have Congress move towards sanctions. Maybe we will have a President step out of office directly into prison.
Don’t be so sensitive. It was not an order, just a Friendly suggestion. I thought you would find out for yourself, with delight, how much egg Obama has on his face over the ransom situation. Sean Hannity mentioned to Newt,today, the ransom for hostage situation. There is a video of the hostage talking about the holdup in the airplane waiting for the cash plane to land. It is on Drudge today with an interview with one of those on the plane. This issue is exploding.

Heh! Heh! Heh! - - - - GO TRUMP GO !!!!!!
This incident illustrates the criminal nature of the Obama Regime and it will be even worse if Hillary is elected. America is wide open to the robbery of its wealth by the Democrat criminal syndicate. Our nation has never seen anything like it. Our media is an accessory to the sort of larceny that took place in Germany under Adolf Hitler. They don’t call her Hitlary for nothing.
That’s very eloquently and accurately put jr.. Who would or could ever think thirty years ago when a great man like Ronald Reagan was in office that the moral character of both the current president( I hate to call him that.) and the former suckedretary of state would be so abysmal.
Can an Air Force General go out and buy several commercial airline jets on his signature authority? I don't think so.
Can a Treasury Department Head transfer $400 million in cash to another federal Department with no paper trail or Congressional authorization?
No, some laws were most likely broken in this one and that is what people need to focus on.
The Obama Administration has a habit of not following the rules/laws. Look at what tripped up the President on his stopping of deportation. Look what tripped up ObamaCare. Obama doesn't follow the rules (just like Hillary) and sometimes that will come back to bite a person in their butt.
I hope that the Big Zero spends a horrible last few months dodging testimony in court cases.
I understand... on top of the gross payment, there is various procedural law, I’d sure like to know even what “fig leaves” were invoked for this purpose, what was even pretended to be legal.
Problem is, virtually nobody is caring what procedural law is now. It seems to dissolve with an EO from Big Ears in most cases, with a few sacrifices to courts when he wants to let it happen. Obamacare would have died if we cared about procedural law — it was a Frankenstein monster without key organs and should not have been able to live.
At any rate this is why Trump has gotten as popular as he has, even though he isn’t always the nicest orator in the world. He is promising “No more Calvinball.”
