Wall Street Journal editorial board member Bill McGurn discusses the report that the Obama administration gave Iran brief access to the U.S. financial system. A Senate subcommittee report alleges that the Obama administration secretly sought to give Iran access to U.S. financial systems by sidestepping sanctions kept in place after the 2015 nuclear deal.

barak hussein bin soetoro operated with a “FU” attitude towards the USA.

back room secret dealings were his MO.

if bath house barry could skim off $100mm for michael’s “muslim girls fund” (which is being held by obammy foundation).....

if hussein could slip 2 x $500mm payments to fund the Paris climate accord on his way out the door....

if hussein could overthrow the head of state in Libya & rob their treasury.....

if hussein could open US financial systems to Iran.....

how much do you thin barak hussein bin soetoro cut out of the $140 billion he flew out to Iran in the dark of the night??

my guess is 10% Vig is standard for bookies & mobsters.

so I figure he’s cut about $14 billion out of the Iran transfer for his own 401K

How much did Obam cut out of the $140 billion he flew out to Iran in the dark of the night?

Obama's $1.3B giveaway to Iran was paid in cash Jan 22 and Feb 5 from a little-known fund administered by the US Treasury.The so-called Judgment Fund is made up of tax dollars Congress has permanently approved in the event it's needed....

SOURCE: fiscaltreasury.gov. -----The Judgment Fund was established to pay court judgments and Justice Department compromise settlements of actual or imminent lawsuits against the government. It is administered by the Judgment Fund Section, which is a part of the United States Department of the Treasury, Bureau of the Fiscal Service. The Judgment Fund Internet Claims System (JFICS) is the application used to process all Judgment Fund claims.

The Judgment Fund is a permanent, indefinite appropriation available to pay judicially and administratively ordered monetary awards against the United States. The Judgment Fund is also available to pay amounts owed under compromise agreements negotiated by the U.S. Department of Justice in settlement of claims arising under actual or imminent litigation, if a judgment on the merits would be payable from the Judgment Fund. The statutory authority for the Judgment Fund is 31 U.S.C. 1304.

If funds for paying an award are otherwise provided for in the appropriations of the defendant agency, the Judgment Fund may not pay an award. A federal agency may request that payment of an award be made on its behalf from the Judgment Fund only in those instances where funds are not legally available to pay the award from the agency's own appropriations.

Amounts paid vary significantly from year-to-year. Federal agencies are not required to reimburse the Judgment Fund except when cases are filed under the Contract Disputes Act (CDA) or the No FEAR Act (Notification and Federal Employee Antidiscrimination and Retaliation Act).

We can be contacted at judgment.fund@fiscal.treasury.gov or 202-874-6664.
