Morgan Ortagus: Biden’s world stage weakness will result in ‘largest ransom payment in US history,’ $1.2B per hostage to Iran

Morgan Ortagus, former State Department Spokeswoman, says that President Biden’s failure on the world stage will results in the “largest ransom payment in U.S. history” to Iran. Saying, “it's incredibly dangerous for every American who travels abroad.” Saying, while it “is commendable that the administration is trying to get Americans who are wrongfully detained wrongfully imprisoned out? Yes, of course, that's the job of the American government. That's what we should be doing. But it you know, any negotiation is not the fix. So just because you get an American home, even though we're happy about that, and by the way, it hasn't happened yet. But this is what's being reported that getting an American home shouldn't be the only end goal, you should you should have a negotiation that leaves the rest of America safe whenever they are traveling abroad.” Ortagus says that after the Russia deal to get back Brittney Griner, it showed the rest of the world that the United States will pay whatever price. Saying, “If this deal goes down, as reported, this is about $1.2 billion per hostage.”
