Sen. Jack Reed: "Reuters is reporting that part of the deal is $24 billion in sanctions relief for the Iranians. So this is not a 'we win and you do what we say.' This is, 'how can we open up the straits? What will it cost us?'"

The Straight that was OPEN before Trump started bombing Iran after tearing up the prior multi-national agreement that was keeping Iran from enriching uranium to weapons grade? So now just gives them billions? The thing Trump accused Obama of doing?

Fact is and it is not 20/20 hindsight, the straight should have never been closed and controlled by Iran. The straight should have been secured by the U.S./Trump/Hegseth at the outset of the Trump started war of choice.

Everything he touches turns to crap. As should have been predictable, he betrayed the Iranian dissidents. As should have been predictable, he now wants to stop Israel from responding to attacks by Iran's proxy. Iran will be stronger in the region as the result of this war. He's a total dickhead.

You lick those Iranian feet!! And give them what they want! You increased entire world’s gas prices. And US stop whining about the prices - you pay nothing compared to Europe. So start licking asses

Before we walked away from negotiations we had a cart load of relief to offer Iran. Unfreezing assets, lifting sanctions, normalization of diplomatic relations, & booming business. And all for guarantees about nuclear proliferation. Now it is everything in the cart + the $35+Bn in war, lives lost!

Remember when Fox and the GOP criticized Obama for giving the Iranians access to their own money? Aapparently they don’t. Now these MAGA idiots can’t even get as good a deal as Obama got… And before anyone compares the cash amounts, look at the amount of enriched Uranium Iran has now vs in 2016. 🤨

I believe it is frozen assets, but so was the money in Obama’s deal (and it was a lot less). I’m also not sure what they aren’t telling us. Trump is desperate for a deal. Trump has a Netanyahu problem that isn’t going away so they may end up giving them money for a deal that blows up In their face

Could it be that having a diplomat who speaks persian leads to better outcomes when negotiating with Iranians than when you use a failed real estate developer who is closely allied to Iran's implacible enemy.

Since we killed a bunch of their children, it seems reasonable they get more and we get less...but why didn't it occur to our government that if we hadn't attacked them, we've have $24 billion to spend HERE, where we're told the budget has to make hungry kids hungrier?

Looks like the Iranians will get their $25 million per ship tariff…it’s just that Trump has agreed to pay for the entire world’s access. $24 billion is passage for about 1000 ships at US taxpayer expense.

Assuming this isn't another TACO/market manipulation incident, any news organization that does not run a side-by-side comparison of the details of Obama's treaty and its cost with Trump's "deal" and its cost is guilty of gross journalistic malpractice. Of course FOX, OAN, and their ilk will not.

I’m old enough to remember Trump complaining about Obama giving Iran $1.7 billion OF THEIR OWN MONEY. Now the orange pedophile wants to give them $24 billion. That is the art of THE CAPITULATION.

What 'will' it cost us? What has it already cost us? & how much more will this deal cost us? And it was all b/c Trump couldn't stand the deal that had Obama's name on it. That's why it's cost so much - b/c Trump is a pathetic, think skinned, baby

Would have cost nothing if Trump didn't try to distract from him being a pedophile and robbing this country blind.... Which he's still doing. Hope everyone enjoys the taxpayer birthday party for that asshole. Fuck every MAGA voter.

Meanwhile, Hegseth is claiming we've strapped Iran over a barrel and they're going to have to sign a deal today because Trump is personally pointing a gun up their ass. I cannot wait for this nightmare of delusional psychopathic children running our country to end.

For $24 billion we could build a time machine, go back to before Trump was conceived, and show his would be parents the utter failure he would become and save us trillions.

So that's $24 billion plus estimates of another $50 - $70 billion in military hardware. Thats before you even look at lost GDP and the added costs to civilians in the US and around the world. There is no winner, just deaths, destruction and hardship to innocent people who had no say in the matter.

Repugs & Dump whined about a plane full of cash Obama unfroze of Iran's $ a crime by a weak president. Yet crickets when their boy sends 1000X the amount & they will celebrate his "great" "deal." Staggering hypocrisy. Just like the deficit. For some reason their reality is always better? IT AIN'T!

Trump is purposely bankrupting America. He didn't need to fuck up Obama's agreement with Iran, let alone kill innocent people to do it. He's in it for the sport. He's a very sick person.

He IS a very sick person I think his massive ego (narcissistic personality disorder) drives him to destroy things so he can feel powerful. He wants to destroy anyone who doesn't worship him. And even them sometimes. The fact that he is getting away with stealing our money also feeds his disorder

Once again, taxpayers are paying for the Tubby Tangerine Tyrant's DISASTROUS DECISIONS. He can't bully, threaten, abuse or outmaneuver the Iranians, so now he's giving them whatever they want to let him off the hook. "PLEASE, HELP ME!! OPEN THE STRAIT!"🤬😭 💰💰💰🤞Then he'll LIE & talk about his DEAL🤮 NO

So we destroyed a country, murdered its people, lost 14 of our own, and now we are going to pay to rebuild something that should have never been destroyed! Thats not WINNING at all!!! We Are the Losers, and it affected every country in the world! The WORST president and administration EVER!! 😡

$100B+ in Pentagon war costs added to the deficit/debt, the loss of life incl Iran civilians, depleted stocks of critical u.s. munitions <interceptors and cruise missiles>. plus the higher energy prices and consequential inflation facing much of the world.

UPDATE: the Ford has returned to Norfolk for repairs on its sewage system, among other things. A 17.3 million dollar contract has been awarded. Work will take months.

This whole Iran fiasco, was orchestrated by a Brooklyn Jew who changed his name to Netanyahu. He does not have the blood of the Jewish Hebron shepherd or the poet of Jaba. He is a Zionist settler pig. He is an ashenazi. This is the reality of the middle east Jewish fate.

So Trump is giving Iran $24 billion of our tax dollars to "open up" what was open before the war, and killing thousands of people and costing us $30+ billion I higher fuel prices already taken out of our wallets at the pump. Way to go rapist.

It's not a deal at all, it's Trump's way of disguising a surrender as a deal so he doesn't look weak. Lives lost, billions spent, weapons wasted, oil price surge, global impact from war etc, all that so Trump can pretend he mastered a deal when infact its worse than Obama's deal that he tore up 🤣🤣🤣
