Obama says money to fight Zika virus is 'running out'

[Fang]

But, didn't Obama just send 400 million to Iran to fund terrorism? WTF?

So what does Obama do? He blames Republicans in Congress who say the money Obama wants was reserved for ebola.

Obama, never let a good crisis go to waste, right?

NO HE DID NOT. It was frozen IRANIAN money. At no point could we simply transfer that money into American treasury.

Two issues have ZERO to do with each other.

Frozen for good reason.
They should have never received a dime of it back.

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

The money doesn't run out until the end of September. That's two months from now. This is nothing but liberal fear mongering.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Maybe Mooch shouldn't be jet setting all over the globe on the taxpayer dime

 

[tyroneweaver]

/obama/dems won't accept zika money unless planned parenthood money is attached.
So there you have it. And of course the gop will be blamed.

He could have rounded up those millions and not told the Iranians, Like he didn't tell us

489 million dollars from ebola was supposed to go to zika. Only 189 million has been used. So where's the other 300 million?
Maybe it did go to Iran.
No ones pressing the issue either.

 

[easyt65]

Perhaps if Obama had not STOLLEN that $500 million he said was for Zika but gave it to the UN instead for their new Global Warming initiative.

If I was Congress I would tell him to go back to the UN and ask for it back, since it was never his to give since he by-passed Congress and lied about the money.

 

[Sundance508]

Well, that 400 million he sent to our Iranian friends and allies could have been well spent down here in Floriday fighting the skeeters.

??? Source?

Earlier this year, the Department of Health and Human Services shifted $374 million from other programs to fight Zika in the U.S., with $222 million allocated to the Centers for Disease Control. The funds have rapidly been depleted during the summer mosquito season.

Obama administration is rapidly running out of money to fight Zika

So his only option was to convert it to foreign currency, fly it in an unmarked plane at night, just so he could circumvent US law. If he gets away with this then Trump will be able to do anything he should so desire. We all ready know Hillary will.

You want the real cheap answer to Zika? The same answer that saved America before from mosquito infestation, use DDT.

??? Circumvent US law? What law was circumvented?

We had an agreement made with Iran where we lift the sanctions and release their money back to them in exchange for nuclear arms control compliance.

We are now releasing that money to them.

What of this is causing you righties to go bonkers with conspiracies about law circumvention and Zika virus complaints?

The reason that they had to send foreign money and do it as did Obama was to circumvent the sanctions which by law is a crime to violate. Obama admits that when he says he had to do it that way because there are no banking connections. Of course there are none the sanctions are still in place. He admits to doing things for the sole purpose of circumventing the law and that still is not enough for the left wing to see the clear and present danger.

That is seriously stupid.

How else are funds supposed to be released??? It's right there in agreement that funds will be unfrozen, how exactly can that be done if not by cash or bank wire???

There was no circumvention, but rather direct compliance with the agreement!

You are seriously naive or are having a short circuit.

Then why did they not send US dollars since the debt was in US dollars?
