Fox News
Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., told FOX News that it is "vitally important" that the U.S. government freeze $6 billion in assets it was prepared to give Iran and called on NSA Jake Sullivan's resignation.
"When you look at what happened with the first Iran deal, when you look at what has happened with the second Iran deal, when you look at the easing of sanctions that has allowed Iran to up their oil sales… the advice that he has given the president has not served the American people or our security well," she continued. Gabriel Hays is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.
She advised freezing the money that was to be given to Iran as part of a prisoner swap, to withhold funding from the country that is the world’s preeminent state sponsor of terror, which has Israel as its "number one target."
It funds "90%" of Hezbollah and Hamas, the latter of which unleashed the attack on Israel that resulted in the deaths of more than 1,200 people in the country, Blackburn said.
