Republicans have castigated President Joe Biden's administration for freeing up $6 billion in funds for Iran's Islamist regime, money that likely contributed to Tehran's funding of Hamas, the genocidal terrorist group that slaughtered more than 1,400 Israelis and took about 200 hostage Oct. 7.
The Biden administration's policies freed up far more than $6 billion for Iran.
Referring to Iran, Greenway described the released $6 billion as "a fraction of the overall revenue that the Biden administration consciously has allowed them to have."
According to The Daily Signal's calculations, Iran has received approximately $70 billion more under Biden than it would have under Trump.
Biden agreed to release the $6 billion South Korea owes Iran as part of a prisoner exchange in August.
Assuming Iran has netted another $11 billion from petrochemical sales in the past six months, the Islamist regime has received approximately $53.8 billion since March 2021.
This represents a $3.8 billion increase over the $50 billion Iran would have received from petrochemical exports had the rate stayed the same since 2020.
