Trump already saved 2.7 billion to redirect toward Wall in the last couple weeks.

He has cut the EPA budget by an additional 31% for the next year. This is a 2.7 billion dollar savings and it is actually cumulative with his previous cuttings . So much winning.

EPA funding cut by 31 percent in Trump budget

Wrong.
Winning would have been Mexico paying for it.
Why do Trumpies have the memory banks of a stoned gerbil?

Defunding the EPA is a win.

It sure is. Who the hell needs a watchdog agency to make sure our air and water doesn't get polluted. I totally trust corporations to police that themselves.

So you're saying American businesses would have spent 65 billion dollars on air pollution controls without the EPA because they felt it was right thing to do.

I was being facetious with that post.

I suspect that but I wan't sure

A. It doesn't work that way.

B. Congress has yet to approve that ridiculous "budget".

Then explain how Obama sent $1.7 billion in cash to Iran without Congress even knowing about it?

Seriously: You're not that "naive", are you?

I believe in theory at least that money was supposed to have been held in trust since it was seized so Iran was getting their money and their interest back without the US taxpayers paying anything out of pocket. As for the wider story in the OP, meh, no real opinion one way or the other.

That's correct. Iran had deposited money in US banks to pay for American made weapons and before they were delivered the crises occurred. Carter froze the funds thinking it would bring Iranians to bargaining table. After over 30 years, the US negotiated a treaty with Iran to stop nuclear fuel production and the US would return their money. Both sides agreed to terms. Iran stopped producing nuclear fuel and the US returned their money. Trump then cancelled the treaty, applied sanctions and Iran says they will start making nuclear fuel again. Our allies continue to honor the terms of the treaty and seem to be ignoring US sanctions.

Obama's so-called "nuclear agreement" was shit. It was nothing more then a stimulus package that financed Iran's terrorist activities which have included being directly responsible for the deaths of over 1,000 American soldiers. Where the hell do you think all those roadside IED's came from and still come from? Iran, that's where.

And Obama paid for them. Obama was the one responsible for turning loose that money that killed your own countrymen. Just how the fuck can you even live with yourself?

Walking out on the agreement will not bring one penny back to the US and Iran says they're considering starting nuclear fuel production again. The other signers of the treaty say they will honor it and are now trading with Iran. I know republicans hated the fact that Obama made a treaty with Iran, but what did it accomplish walking away from it? Iran is now likely to become a nuclear power in the 5 to 10 years and both China and Russia will become major trading partners.
