If M$Greedis does not shut up Trump on the release of the Iran hostages

by playing and replaying the wife of one of them who made it clear that they were in discussions for over a year and she had met with Obama almost a year ago, and official reports on these discussions, we must make a HUGE scene across social media.

Enough of this corporate lying shit and the free pass

Pastor Saeed Abedini was held in Iran since 2012 and sentenced in 2013 to eight years in prison for the crime of spreading Christianity through Iran.

Abedini’s wife told Wolf Blitzer it’s a “joyful day” for her family and they can’t wait until her husband calls so they can hear his voice again.

She talked rather effusively about how much President Obama privately assured her that he’s doing everything he can to secure Abedini’s release, and he made sure the State Department was “continually updating us” on the negotiations.
