Politico’s bombshell report is leading to a Congressional investigation, reports the Washington Free Beacon.
According to the Politico report, Obama allowed Hezbollah to run cocaine through the U.S. as a bargaining chip to secure the awful Iran deal. Professor Jacobson covered the story extensively here.
Wednesday, the Free Beacon reported a Congressional investigation was imminent:
Lawmakers are launching an investigation into Obama-era efforts to thwart a longstanding U.S. investigation into the Iranian-backed terror group Hezbollah, according to multiple congressional officials and insiders who spoke to the Washington Free Beacon.
The Obama administration worked behind the scenes to thwart a decade-long Drug Enforcement Agency investigation into Hezbollah and its highly lucrative drug trade in Latin America, according to a report in Politico. These officials are believed to have run interference on the investigation in order to avoid upsetting Iran and jeopardizing the landmark nuclear accord.
