During a message to supporters regarding President Biden’s disastrous Iran hostage deal last month, former President and 2024 GOP frontrunner Donald Trump said it would “put Israel in grave peril.”
“Biden’s ransom payment will be immediately used to stoke violence, bloodshed, and mayhem throughout the Middle East, putting Israel, the United States, and the entire world in very grave peril,” Trump said at the time.
The ransom payment, the infamous $6 billion in unfrozen Iran assets, was included in addition to prisoners during a swap with the Biden Administration.
Watch the clip above.
National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan was reluctant to provide full details on the state of the $6 billion dollars during Tuesday’s White House press briefing.

"You just laid out all the ways that Iran is complicit … is that reason enough to re-freeze the $6 billion that the U.S. helped unlock for them?"
