🧵 (1/3) I'LL SPARE YOU THE GRAPHIC.

A friend sent me a RW meme making the rounds accusing #Hillary, #Obama, and #Biden of providing #Iran w/nuclear material, claiming #DonnieDumbass is just "cleaning up their mess."

The meme itself is a total mess. 1st, it goes back to the false claim Hillary sold uranium to #RUSSIA (not Iran) as part of the #UraniumOne deal. Uranium One is a CANADIAN company of which the U.S. held a 15% stake. B/c the buyer was Russia, *Obama* had to approve the sale.

The graphic then (falsely) accused #Obama of "giving #Iran $17B that it then used on it's nuclear program."

This too is more #GOP stupidity & propaganda.

Obama never "released" a single dollar. #Iran had to "appropriate" their purchase with the State Dept, upon which WE purchased what they needed, insuring none of it went to weapons.

Most went for food & medicine. The funds were released in exchange for ALLOWING IN UN INSPECTORS TO MONITOR THEIR NUKE PROGRAM.

#Biden's role was purely while he was VP… *not* as president… falsely claiming he had his own deal with Iran that gave them $16B.

They are referring to the same unfreezing of frozen #Russian money seized when they attacked #Ukraine. 🤦‍♂️
