Iran’s Hostage Industrial Complex

The White House is on the precipice of providing Iran with an enormous cash windfall in return for five American hostages. And it’s clear the full scope of the Biden administration’s engagement with Iran is being kept as secret as possible for as long as possible, thus undermining any Congr…
