Investigation follows regime-backed Hamas war against IsraelMembers of the U.S. House of Representatives are demanding the Biden administration explain its scheming in secret with Iran over its nuclear options, actions that potentially violate federal law.
The demand on Wednesday comes in light of the Iran-backed Hamas war that was launched against Israel with an attack that killed hundreds, including babies who were beheaded by the Islamist intruders.
The announcement comes from the House Oversight and Accountability Committee, headed by Rep. James Comer, R-Ky.
It is working with the Subcommittee on National Security, the Border, and Foreign Affairs Chairman Glenn Grothman also to raise concerns "about the administration’s use of officials with sympathetic ties to the Iranian regime to negotiate with Iran."
The letter to U.S. Department of State Secretary Antony Blinken demands documents, information, and a briefing.
"The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the Biden Administration’s efforts to conceal details about its ongoing secret nuclear negotiations with the Islamic Republic of Iran from Congress, ignoring statutory obligations for congressional oversight. The Administration’s lack of transparency is even more troubling in light of press reports about Iran’s direct role in this weekend’s horrific attack on Israel by Hamas and additional revelations that former Special Envoy for Iran (SEI), Robert Malley, and members of his negotiating team may have had compromising ties to the Iranian regime. We request documents, information, and a briefing to assist the Committee’s investigation of these matters," said the letter.
The committee confirmed, "The United States made recent concessions to Iran, potentially in violation of the Iranian Nuclear Review Act. These concessions occurred as Mr. Malley—the Administration’s top negotiator with Iran—is under investigation for the alleged mishandling of classified material. Mr. Malley already had a history of appeasing United States’ adversaries, including meeting with the terrorist group Hamas. The ongoing investigation into Mr. Malley’s security violations are so serious that he was suspended from his position without pay."
