Original Note:
President Biden did not give $6B to Iran. The State Dept took steps to advance a prisoner exchange negotiation by issuing a waiver to unfreeze $6B in Iranian assets, frozen under US sanctions, for humanitarian spending. It was reportedly issued the week before the 11th. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/biden-admin-clears-way-prisoner-swap-deal-iran-lifts-freeze-6-billion-rcna104474
