"While the Administration says this money was part of a $1.7 billion settlement with Iran to resolve a failed 1979 arms deal, the timing certainly makes it seem like a ransom paid to Iran. Such a policy puts Americans more at risk, not less, and we need to get to the bottom of this." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
