Over the weekend the John Kerry was hitting the media circuit trying to protect his and former President Obama’s failed policy in Iran.
Things did not go well for him on Sunday when he was cornered over comments he made about who would end up getting the money they gave to Iran. Kerry flipped out when he was shown a clip of comments he made back in 2016.
Late last week, President Trump said that the Iran Nuclear Deal helped fund terrorist operations.
“The missiles fired last night at us and our allies were paid for with the funds made available by the last administration,” Trump said from the White House, referring to settlement money the U.S. paid to Iran in 2016.
“Iran’s hostilities substantially increased after the foolish Iran nuclear deal was signed in 2013, and they were given $150 billion, not to mention $1.8 billion in cash,” he said. “Instead of saying thank you to the United States, they chanted ‘Death to America,’” Trump added.
Margaret Brennan, the host of CBS’s “Face The Nation,” asked Kerry about these comments and he said they were a “lie.” Then, Brennan showed Kerry a video of him in 2016 saying that some of the money they will give Iran will end up in the hands of terror organizations and then, he fell apart.
John Kerry gets completely flustered when he is shown a 2016 clip of him saying that he knew that the money Obama administration gave Iran would be used to fund the IRGC.
Notice the lip smacking thing he does when he tries to come up with an explanation.

Apparently, President Trump was watching because even he took the time to troll him.
John Kerry got caught essentially admitting that funds given ridiculously to Iran were used to fund attacks on the USA. Only a complete fool would have given that 150 Billion Dollars Plus to Iran. They then went on a Middle East Rampage! @foxandfriends @PeteHegseth
