We pay the ransom to Iran, whether you knew it or not

For three years, the Obama administration has been sending blood money to Iran to the tune of $2 billion in taxpayer funds, and the beat goes on. According to the Washington Free Beacon, a recent State Department communication reveals that the U.S. is likely to gift the terrorists with billions more of our money.

The State Department disclosed the information after Rep. Mike Pompeo (R. Kan.) sought more information in January about the Obama administration's payment of $1.7 billion to Iran as "ransom payment" to obtain the release of several U.S. hostages.

The State Department stalled Pompei's request, but assistant secretary Julia Frifield finally responded, "We apologize for the delay in responding." Then the letter goes on to justify the ransom money.

It seems like nobody on either side of the aisle have done anything to reign in Obama's flamboyant spending and this may be contributing to the popularity of a guy from New York City whose lack of political correctness has made him an attractive GOP candidate.
