for years now, i have been seeing the meme about shrink wrap currency pallets going to Iran. it is always used as proof of something wrong or illegal. i remember back when it happened. the US was negotiating with Iran about a Nuclear Freeze. part of the conditions of the Iranians was that the sanctions be dropped and their money on deposit in the US, which had been frozen, be returned. they did not want a check. they wanted cash. so, they got it. my memory could be wrong about this, but that is what my memory tells me happened. this meme might be a case of cherry picking. only repeating the part of the story that supports your view of things.
Your partially correct. You missed the part where money transfer was withheld from congress and never voted on by congress who have to ratify treaties before the money could be sent.
There is also the timing. The cash was sent in the middle of negotions and just after iran took hostages.
tl;dr Nothing will happen, the only change will be a ratcheting up of the current improprieties.
Time is on the side of the commies. The longer they can keep it from going hot, no matter how far they go, the better for them. I think the problem, and I do see it as a problem, is many think this current war will be a Civil War 2.0. Who wants to fight their brother? That image is undeniably brutal and is sufficient to ward off what should come; The People taking lead and prosecuting the wrongdoers except it would bring harm to yourself and your neighbor. Therefore, it is the 'patriots' themselves who are keeping things in check, disallowing the proper outcome of this string of malfeasance perpetrated at the highest levels of government.
Ok well and fine, let's keep it from going hot. Let us strive to preserve the Union but by less severe means. Well, do we see that happening? And remember, time is on the side of the wicked ones. For the longer things remain as they are now - the constituency up in arms but not truly up in Arms - the more the people will become inculcated to the Rule of Men, the more the people will accept this 'new normal'. And the further the commies will push in their disregard for established law, dismissing and dismantling the U.S. Constitution inclusive.
Rather, it is more accurate to perceive the hostilities as like the French Revolution. I need not detail the hows and whys of that carnage and how it escalated. Yet those hostilities will not come as long as the Patriot holds the perception that CW 2.0 is on the horizon. And the commies will keep on truckin'.
You said a mouthful edutcher. That scenario has manifested in my family. I and another sister are on the far right side of what ever line is being drawn today. Four other sisters and my only brother are on the far left side of that line. We have tried to have "normal" family gatherings which no politics and religion was to be discussed. Two sisters could not abide by the rule and spouted leftist crap. So, no longer will the one sister and myself and our immediate family do not attend. Sad and disheartening that it has come to this.
same here but only with one sister. last time I saw her I said let's leave politics out Okay? two seconds later, the evil patriarchy, the evil white man is the fault of everything bad about the world and the reason she is a dismal failure(she is white) etc etc etc She is so eaten up with hate and rage that it is impossible to be around her.
Problem for the Lefties is, as they ruin things, Conservatives find something else to take its place. We are very adaptable that way. They are eating their seed corn.
And time is not on their side. Black America is finally waking up, it would seem, and, even if it isn't, aborting more babies than they bring to term makes them a vanishing breed. Much the same for white Lefties.
Pew has noted that large swathes of Moslems, especially, younger ones, brought to this country fall away from the faith after they come here. Too much freedom, too many rights, especially for women. Similar for Hispanics. After 2 or 3 generations, they assimilate.
I think the tipping point has been passed. A lot is going to happen in Trump's trial (if, in fact, there is one). If he can so destroy the Democrats as a party, retribution may be swifter in coming than many think.

Who wants to fight their brother?
DeleteHow many families who used to do holidays together don't anymore?
It just may be coming to that.

Continue to invest in lead and brass. Our Founding Fathers would've been stacking bodies by now.
