“Well, obviously, he has represented himself as a friend of the United States. But there is a big discussion about him giving away the fact that we had Iran's secret codes and to be able to get intelligence on what they are doing inside Iran. Now that is major. That is major. That is just another investigation that is going on. But how much did we pay him a month? Does the gentleman remember that number? Was it like $365,000 a month? I believe that that was the number that they had. And if I can, I pulled my credit card out last time. I pulled it out of my wallet, and my wife said, do not pull that credit card out. And I told her I was using it as a prop. But with a little help from my graphics people, when we start looking at this we are looking at really $477 billion, which is $4.7 trillion dollars in debt right now. And this is, of course, the U.S. Treasury that this money is coming out of. So not only did we pay for a double spy to be able to share information with Iran, had a relationship, a very close relationship and family ties to Iran, which I must say that day in and day out we are trying to do what we can to make sure that we play down the nuclear threat in the region, but we paid him. We paid him almost $400,000 to provide this information.”
