Krauthammer: $400 Million Payment To Iran Was ‘Quid Pro Quo’ for Release of Prisoners and ‘Money Laundering’

On Wednesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Special Report,” columnist Charles Krauthammer said that the payment of $400 million to Iran as four Americans were released from the country back in January will go “straight to” terrorists, and wasn’t only a “quid pro quo.” It was also “money laundering.”

Krauthammer said, “It was illegal. It isn’t only the optics. It isn’t only that they are just looking ridiculous in denying that it was a quid pro quo. Obviously, it wasn’t a coincidence. The reason that it was objected to by Justice, there is a statute that prohibits us from engaging in Iran dealing with dollars.

The CEO would be in jail right now.” – READ MORE
