Biden Administration Capitulation to Iran

August 11, 2023

Washington, DC – Congressman Joe Wilson commented on the Biden administration’s recent and ongoing capitulation to Iran.

“The Biden administration continues its reckless submission to the Iranian regime: 

  • Incentivized hostage taking of Americans by Iran, Russia, and China with a $6 billion deal. Former Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Commander has publicly called for taking thousands of Americans hostage for revenue.
  • The fungible $6 billion payments will be used to fund Putin’s murder of Ukrainians, attacks on Israel, and others targeted by Iranian missiles, drones, and terrorism.
  • Bypassing Congress by conducting secret nuclear agreements without legally required congressional review. 
  • Zero sanctions enforcement announcement for months as the regime exports record oil to the Chinese Communist Party.

This agreement does nothing to prevent Iran from becoming a hostile nuclear power and is a projection of weakness as dictators are working together to threaten freedom and safety around the world.”
