Mike Pence: “We will never ever pay ransom to terrorists or terrorist states.”

And I think that’s broadly held by most Republicans and most Americans.

Maximum pressure worked. America’s military strength worked. The blockade worked. Iran came to the table because the regime’s existence teetered on a knife’s edge.

The president deserves tremendous credit for taking the fight directly to Tehran, and every American should welcome the prospect of peace.

It's deeply offensive to me that you could have a fund that could even possibly compensate people who assaulted police officers or vandalised the Capitol on January 6.
