>No way congress passes that appropriation

No way congress passes an appropriation you just invented, which even the most optimistic Iranian propagandists are not claiming to be happening?

I mean yeah. Most random things you can come up with are likely to be things that congress will never pass.

Who invented? It's the headline of the article, attributed to Vance. Yes, there's been a lot of conflicting messaging about it.

It’s the Trump admin signature big number that goes on all documents, not a reference to real money that exists or is genuinely expected to exist.

You're saying once the deal is signed the president will say "lol Iran, the gulf coalition doesn't exist, you get nothing"?

[nixon_why69]

Sure, I'm just saying congress wouldn't fund that if asked.

[joxdosba]

Of course they wouldn’t, the admin is claiming the seemingly non-existent ”gulf coast coalition” will fund it.
