Rep. Mike McCaul, R-Texas, ridiculed the agreement orchestrated by the Biden administration for Iran to release five Americans in exchange for $6 billion in assets and jailed Iranians.
“Reagan said trust but verify. I have to use the word naïveté,” McCaul, chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, said during an appearance on “Fox News Sunday.”
“Look I want to get these Americans home more than anybody. And one of them is a critical asset,” McCaul said. “I agree with that, but we have to go in eyes wide open; $6 billion that is now going to go into Iran and prop up their proxy war terror operations, and their nuclear bomb aspirations. They are now starting to talk about the JCPOA all over again, which in my judgment leads down a course to a legal nuclear bomb in Iran. Prime Minister Netanyahu came out strongly against this. I think we’re going back to the mistakes of the past.”
