On Tuesday morning, leading Republican presidential candidate and 45th President Donald Trump voiced his anger on Truth Social after the Biden administration agreed to a prisoner swap with Iran that led to $6 billion being released to the radical Islamic regime on the anniversary of 9/11.
The deal would allow for $6 billion in frozen funds to be unsanctioned by international banks that were the result of oil sales from countries like South Korea and Qatar, per Newsweek. In addition to releasing the money, the Biden administration will also be handing over five Iranians in American custody.
In response to the move, President Trump has called for Republicans to take action following the terrible deal.
"So, lets get this straight! We did a hostage TRADE with Iran," Trump began. "We gave them 5 very tough, smart people that they desperately wanted. We likewise got back 5 people BUT, we also gave them 6 BILLION DOLLARS!"
"How much of a kickback does Crooked Joe Biden get?" Trump asked. "Does anyone realize how much money 6 Billion Dollars is? When I was President, I got back 58 hostages for ZERO money. Remember Pastor Brunson?"
"It sets a TERRIBLE precedent," the 45th president explained. "Republicans, call out the 25th Amendment, NOW! Biden is INCOMPETENT!"

Sounds like something Zero would do...
If I didn’t know better, based on bidens actions and his erogance, I’d almost surmise that he’s trying to throw this election....or, plans to declare martial law during the election.
Aid and comfort to the enemy
Who do you think is behind all of this? Biden, who can’t find his way to the bathroom?
Obama has been calling the shots in this administration - this is Obama’s 3rd administration to destroy America (and possibly the world).
“Sounds like something Zero would do...”
As usual, they tried to blame it on Trump. The State Department guy mentioned “the previous administration” several times.
I frickin’ HATE the State Department.
Putin got Biden to do this.
Paying.. More will be captured.. 6 bil is a huge ransom.
They.. Dems.. are dumb.. Ignorant.. And Jo wants his share of 6 bill.
Ya can’t train dumb.

“A billion here, a billion there; pretty soon you’re talking about real money.”-—Sen.Everett Dirksen.
Forbes Magazine:
In the 1950s, Senator Everett McKinley Dirksen of Illinois, one of the great legislators and orators in our history (16 years in Congress and 18 in the Senate until his death in 1969) was said to have remarked, in his deep, throaty, baritone voice, “A billion here, a billion there; pretty soon you’re talking about real money.”
For the sake of historical accuracy, Dirksen did not say all that, as it turns out. According to The Dirksen Congressional Center, Senator Dirksen actually did say “a billion here, a billion there,” but not the rest. The Center identified a man who had asked Dirksen about the second part of that quote and received the following reply from the senator: “Oh, I never said that. A newspaper fella misquoted me once, and I thought it sounded so good that I never bothered to deny it.”
Obama has been calling the shots in this administration - this is Obama’s 3rd administration to destroy America (and possibly the world).

Trump isn’t alone.
But I doubt it was Biden’s idea. Sounds more like a bozo move to me.
No. They are evil to the core.
10% of $6 billion for the big guy is $600 million.
No one can’t tell me that these ghouls — God-hating, Christian-hating, America-hating, sexual perverts don’t have meetings where they discuss ways to smear, tarnish, pollute the heart and soul of the nation.
Yes they are evil...
Not just Donald Trump furious all AMERICAN’S are.
Biden never met an enemy of America he didn’t like.
