Well all the leftist talk about treason and Trump lately, I guess it’s no surprise that the corrupt Democrat media complex is hiding the fact that Obama signed legal waivers, giving Iran $10 billion in cash and gold. The cash and gold were moved through third-party countries in the Middle East and Europe after Asian nations unfroze Iranian oil revenues and wired the funds to various banks. Also included is the Muslim country of Oman, leftist Switzerland and Nuslim Turkey. Yet, not a peep from the corrupt media about this latest Obama-Jarrett-Iran fiasco. Lurch Kerry was also likely a part of this deal.

Some of the payments were previously reported; however, others went unreported. One unreported payment included $1.4 billion to Iran in the time period between when the Iran deal was finalized in July 2015 and when it went into effect.
The U.S. Treasury Department has a policy of criticizing large cash payments because, according the the WSJ report, “they could be used by criminal gangs, narcotics traffickers or terrorist organizations. International sanctions, however, have long restricted Iran’s access to global financial and banking systems, making other forms of payments necessary.”
Some observers worry that this might translate into funding terror regimes such as the Assad regime in Syria, the Lebanese militia Hezbollah and the Houthi political movement in Yemen.
The Obama administration says it played no role in the $10 billion cash and gold payments to Iran, contending that the countries who unfroze the oil revenues and made the banking transfers acted of their own volition. U.S. officials also note that Iran felt payments related to the Iran deal were coming too slowly, and that “a final deal might not have been possible if they hadn’t found ways to get Iran some of the monthly $700 million payments during the 18 months of negotiations.”
