Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), who led 19 Senate Republicans in the initial call to freeze the $6 billion to Iran, called on the Biden administration to formally freeze the funds and re-direct it to Israel in an interview with Fox News Digital. "[The Biden administration] should rescind the waivers that allowed for that transfer of that money. And the advice that he has given President Biden is just out of step," Blackburn said. He was wrong on the deal they recently cooked up with the prisoner exchange and the $6 billion." And they're using that money to further their mission and to push terrorist acts around the globe," she added.
