Biden Administration Bypassing Americans, Violating US Law, to Appease Regime of Iran

By Majid Rafizadeh, GATESTONE •  September 9, 2023

  • The Biden administration has been accused of secretly bypassing US laws to reach a deal with Iran’s Islamist regime.
  • On August 10, the Biden administration apparently cut a “deal” excluding Congress and keeping the American people and U.S. regional allies in the dark — even though they are the ones who would be the most directly affected by a “deal.”

  • The United States agreed to pay $6 billion dollars and release a handful of Iranian nationals who are serving prison sentences in the US, in exchange for the release of five Iranian-Americans imprisoned in Iran. The sum comes to more than a billion dollars per head — possibly largest hostage ransom payment in America’s history — and that makes every American on foreign soil a juicy mark.
  • House Majority Leader Steve Scalise, GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik and House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul accused President Joe Biden on August 21 of breaking a 2015 law, the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act (INARA) by secretly negotiating and reaching a nuclear “understanding” with the Iranian regime alongside a hostage release deal.
  • “I urge the Administration to remember that U.S. law requires that any agreement, arrangement, or understanding with Iran needs to be submitted to Congress pursuant to INARA.” — US Rep. Michael McCaul, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, in a letter to President Joe Biden, August 15, 2023.
  • “At least $16 billion has now been made available to Iran without any congressional input—and more might be on the way. Another $6.7 billion is reportedly moving to Iran via the International Monetary Fund Special Drawing Rights… and reportedly … another $3 billion of regime assets frozen in Tokyo. India and China….” — Richard Goldberg, former White House Security official, thedispatch.com, August 15, 2023.
  • How could the Biden administration keep the American people and allies such as Israel in the dark when the Iran’s ruling mullahs have made it clear that a top priority is to attack the US, eradicate the Jewish state and “wipe Israel off the map”?
  • Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi… has openly called for the destruction of Israel: “This great movement that we are witnessing today in the form of protests is a symbol of the solidarity of the Muslim people that will lead to the destruction of the Zionist regime.”
  • The Biden administration’s endless preference for the openly-expansionist, terrorist-supporting, citizen-murdering regime of Iran directly puts US national security, the lives of our allies worldwide, and the lives of American people at risk.

The Biden administration has been accused of secretly bypassing US laws to reach a deal with Iran’s Islamist regime.

On August 10, the Biden administration apparently cut a “deal” excluding Congress and keeping the American people and U.S. regional allies in the dark — even though they are the ones who would be the most directly affected by a “deal.”

The Biden administration, determined, it seems, to continue appeasing the Iranian regime — called by the US State Department the leading state sponsor of terrorism — keeps indefatigably trying to revive then President Barack Obama’s 2015 “nuclear deal,” enabling Iran’s mullahs legitimately to have as many nuclear weapons as they like.

  1. BHO, J Kerry and others got back millions from the billions given back to the ayatollahs. Does the “demented one” expect something similar?
    Imperialists treat everybody more or less the same way: either you submit willfully, or you will experience chaos. Eventually they self-destruct.
    What is the purpose of preserving history if it is constantly ignored!
    Even a new Big Bang would change NOTHING!
    New theories suggest that the BB may not be a correct explanation of everything from NOTHINGNESS!
    I knew that much long ago! I am not a physicist nor even a cosmologist.

  2. The Outsourcing of Death and Destruction

    The puppet totalitarian government in Washington DC has outsourced the destruction of US national sovereignty to millions of illegal immigrants pouring across what once was our southern border.

    The puppet uniparty government in Washington DC is outsourcing the destruction of Israeli sovereignty to Israeli liberals intent on bringing down the Netanyahu government.

    This same globalist puppet government in Washington DC has planned to outsource the military destruction of the United States and Israel to Iran (and China). Despite those Republicans who speak out against what the Biden puppet government is doing vis a vis Iran, we see no action from them, only talk. This means they are part of the uniparty puppet government.

    Their plan: Iran will destroy the “Big Satan” and “Little Satan” by nuclear blackmail or the use of dirty bombs or other weapons.

    The uniparty puppet government in Washington DC has outsourced the killing of Americans through biochemical weapons disguised as vaccines and through government sanctioned death protocols in hospitals, while those hospitals pretend to treat their COVID infections.

    They have outsourced the killing of thousands of Americans to China and the drug cartels through Fentanyl brought in from the South.

    They think we do not know what they are doing. They do not think we see what they are up to. But we have eyes and ears everywhere, and we see everything.
