Mr. Chairman, most Americans would be surprised and disgusted to learn that Iran has been given approximately $50 billion in a sanctions relief package by the Biden administration. More to the point, it was done in exchange for a promise from Iran that they wouldn't produce weapons-grade uranium. That is it. That is all we apparently got. Think about the implications of this deal. The Ayatollah, who embraces chants of ``Death to America'' and ``Death to Israel,'' can produce even more deadly long-range missiles, but that is fine by Joe Biden. How about highly enriched uranium? Somewhere in Foggy Bottom, Antony Blinken is nodding his head: Sure, why not? The Ayatollah can put his country on the cusp of the nuclear threshold and hold it over us as a constant threat. He can continue to pocket billions of taxpayer dollars made available by the so-called adults in charge at our State Department. Mr. Chairman, I reserve the balance of my time.
