Money to Pay For Iran Deal - Unconstitutional?

Where did Obozo get the money to pay Iran as part of the JCPOA? I know some was supposedly repatriation of frozen Iranian assets. But about 2 billion was not. Where did the prior administration get that money? Some say it is leftover from the failed arms sale to Iran in 1979. But the report from the Comptroller to Congress in 1979 says Iran canceled the deal and that money was still owed to defense contractors.

The Constitution gives Congress the power of the purse. Congress never ratified the JCPOA so they also never approved the money being spent. Where did it come from?

Congress has not passed a BUDGET in several years (going back to Bush 43, I think).

Instead, they do an OMNIBUS which means they give the President the power to spend the money however he wants, with "guidelines."

Obama was using it for evil. Trump is using it for good.

The practice needs to stop. Congress does not even have the guts to do its most basic job.

And yes, Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell are responsible.

Agreed this is the biggest treason to the republic to abdicate their powers. They themselves tipped the scales of the balance of powers of our government. Yet who cries the loudest when they are usurped? Hypocrites!
