EXCLUSIVE — Members of Congress are raising concerns over how the Biden administration released aid to Iran and Gaza before the terror group Hamas launched a deadly attack against the Jewish state of Israel.
On Sunday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken was pressed over the $6 billion, telling NBC News,"Iran has unfortunately always used and focused its funds on supporting terrorism, on supporting groups like Hamas, and it's done that when there have been sanctions. It's done that when there haven't been sanctions.
Issa added,"The Biden foreign policy smart set has a lot to answer for — now, they must be held to account." Meanwhile, members of Congress are also eyeing how the Biden administration has delivered large sums in Palestinian aid, despite the Trump administration cutting such funding.
"The administration should not be enabling Hamas's deadly antisemitism that has manifested in the kidnapping, raping, and killing of so many innocent Israelis, including numerous U.S. citizens," Rep. Chris Smith , who sits on the House Foreign Affairs Committee and leads its Subcommittee on Global Health, Global Human Rights and International Organizations, told the Washington Examiner.
"In times of uncertainty, danger, and peril, people need to be able to trust in their government," Michael Chamberlain told the Washington Examiner.
