Original Note:
The Biden administration did not give "taxpayer money". They were frozen Iranian funds. After the exchange, Iran gained access to them, but each withdrawal must be accounted for and can only be used for non-sanctionable items. ZERO of it is in Iranian banks. https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/18/politics/iran-money-explainer/index.html
