Alas, it was said the Obama Administration tried to negotiate her release,
but to no avail
.
"But to no avail" sums up the entirety of the Obama Administration.
Two questions that Obama will not be asked upon his return to DC:
1. Aren't you embarrassed to have been guests of billionaires over the past three months, enjoying luxury and extravagance not available to ordinary Americans?
2. Why wasn't your Administration able to secure the release of Aya Hijazi and other humanitarian workers in Egypt? President Trump was able to achieve those releases in three months, vs the 2 1/2 years they spent in prison while you were President?
