Original Note:
To clarify: 1: None of the 6B was taxpayer money. They were frozen Iranian funds. 2: The money is not in Iranian banks 3: The U.S. government has direct oversight and control on all withdrawals, making it impossible to use except for non-sanctioned items (food, medicine) https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/18/politics/iran-money-explainer/index.html
