McConnell on Iran Prisoner Swap: ‘Biden Awarding and Incentivizing Iran’s Bad Behavior’

EXCERPT:

McCONNELL: "Today, five American hostages are on their way home from unjust detention in Iran. Unfortunately, the deal that secured their release may very well be the latest example of President Biden rewarding and incentivizing Tehran's bad behavior. Over the past two and a half years, the administration's weakness and desperation have emboldened, emboldened massive state sponsor of terror and would-be nuclear-armed aggressor. Take the $6 billion the United States has reportedly just released to the Iranian regime. Administration officials have insisted that this money is subject to strict oversight and may only be used for humanitarian purposes. Iran’s president, on the other hand, understands that money is fungible.”
