Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that none of the $6 billion released by the U.S. for humanitarian aid in Iran was used to help fund Hamas’ attack against Israel on Saturday, which resulted in hundreds of deaths.

Anchor Dana Bash said, “While we’re talking about Iran, I have to ask you to, if you want to respond to what we’re hearing from Republicans who are over and over since this happened using word appeasement when it comes to Iran and they criticized the decision to unfreeze $6 billion in Iranian funds. I know and want to state that that money has not yet been unfrozen. Iran does not yet have it. But the accusation is that…your administration posture towards Iran has helped contribute to this. I want to give you a chance to respond.”

These people are serial liars. They would never admit it without glaring, horn blasting proof.

[Waverunner]

The scariest thing was Biden’s statement of support. You know that he is lying. After all our border is secure.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Oh, it was all just the money they printed out of nothing. The “borrowed” stuff. Got it.

[Tennessee Nana]

Liar Liar
Pants on fire

[Liz]

Never believe anything until the government officially denies it.

We gotta get that on a tee shirt.

[sjmjax]

If he actually believes that, he’s stupid and naive. Otherwise. He’s a disingenuous snake.

[popdonnelly]

How did that paying ransom to Iran work out for him?

[popdonnelly]

Blinken is a fugitive from the Obama Administration. Valerie Jarrett and her communist parents lived in Iran and were big supporters of Mossadegh.

[Political Junkie Too]

I know and want to state that that money has not yet been unfrozen. Iran does not yet have it.

If that's true, then rescind the deal and hold onto the money.

Why move forward with releasing those funds now while this war is going on?

-PJ

[GOPJ]

Are you saying Iran can take the money they’re now spending on heath and food and use the money Biden’s giving them for ‘health and food’ then use the money ‘saved’ for weapons, war and evil?

It’s that easy, right?

Or that knowing the money’s sitting there just upped their credit - kind of like it’s collateral for massive new loans for evil?

[bk1000]

Liar! The government has no money of its own. It is all “tax” money. They print it, we owe it.

[nopardons]

BTTT

[FreedomPoster]

It is a moronic statement. Money is the ultimate fungible resource.

[LibertarianLiz]

that none of the $6 billion released by the U.S. for humanitarian aid in Iran was used to help fund Hamas’ attack against Israel on Saturday

Yeah, Blinken, no one believes that. You are a lying liar who lies.

[NWFree]

He gave paloterrists hundreds of millions directly

President Retard is guilty of crimes against humanity

[mware]

The Biden Administration still RELEASED money that went to Iran.

[FreedomPoster]

That’s exactly what I responded to a Leftist, money is the ultimate fungible resource. They don’t understand basic, fundamental real economics.

[Toespi]

Well, MTG was on with Marjorie Taylor Greene this morning. She is wanting an investigation into the missiles used in this attack, serial numbers/identification to see if they were weapons left behind in Afghanistan.

[kiryandil]

In other words, U.S. taxpayer dollars funded the murderous assault.
