SECRET SIDE DEALS WITH IRAN CONCERNING INSPECTION OF THEIR NUKES
(Mr. POE of Texas asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute.)
Mr. POE of Texas. Mr. Speaker, it seems the Iranians are not the only
ones we can't trust. Apparently, there
[[Page H5454]]
are some secret side deals with Iran concerning inspections of their
nukes. The administration conveniently withheld this from Congress.
Susan Rice said:
These documents are not public, but nonetheless, we have
been briefed on those documents. We know their contents. We
are satisfied with them, and we will share the contents of
those briefings in full in a classified session with the
Congress, so there is nothing in that regard that we know
that they won't know.
Let me get this straight. We are supposed to trust the person who
lied to the American people on national television about Benghazi?
Mr. Speaker, what else are they hiding? Maybe the details of the side
deal are stored on a server somewhere. We know we can't trust the
Iranians to follow the deal.
Now, we can't trust the administration to let us know what is in the
deal. Let's hope these secret side deals are not as hard to get a hold
of as the former Secretary of State's emails.
And that is just the way it is.
