Either Dianne Feinstein is out of her mind or she thinks President Trump is out of his. She wants Trump to reverse himself and support Iran getting $5 billion from the IMF (International Monetary Fund) ostensibly for humanitarian relief. If you believe that I have a bridge I’m selling really cheap.
Iran has demonstrated in the past where their priorities lie. They do not spend money on their people. Even when Barack Obama sent them pallets full of cash, little or none went to the citizens. It went to terrorists around the globe. I have no doubt that this five billion would as well.
Feinstein claims that money would be in this country’s best interest. I fail to see where she gets that from. We know who and what the extremist leaders of Iran are and that’s all we need to know to step in and keep the money from flowing to our enemy who will give it to others who are also enemies of ours.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., has urged President Trump to reverse a reported plan to block an Iranian request to the IMF for $5 billion in aid to fight the DTMNBN crisis — saying it is in the U.S. national interest to accede to the request.
“I am disappointed to see reports that your administration intends to block Iran from receiving $5 billion in humanitarian aid from the IMF to combat the DTMNBN pandemic,” Feinstein wrote in a letter dated Thursday to President Trump. “Providing these funds to Iran would help it respond more effectively to the disease and mitigate the risk of further destabilization in the region.”
The administration plans to block the request for an emergency loan, amid concerns that the anti-American regime still has billion-dollar accounts available to it, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Senior officials told the Journal that the loan would allow Tehran to divert the money to its economy — which has been stunted by the sanctions imposed as part of the U.S. maximum pressure campaign — or to finance extremist militant groups in the Middle East.
Iranian “officials have a long history of diverting funds allocated for humanitarian goods into their own pockets and to their terrorist proxies,” one of the administration officials told the outlet.
