BILLIONS for a Foe — New Audit Proves Biden-Era Cash Flowed to Iran, Funding Terror and a Culture of Taxpayer-Funded Appeasement.

While Americans at Home Were Struggling During and After Covid — BIDEN Spent $160 BILLION on Funding TERROR!

March 3, 2026

— A Blockbuster Forensic Audit from the Watchdog Group Open the Books has proven what many feared:
—During THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION, roughly $160 BILLION in Financial Benefits were delivered to the Iranian Dictatorship — THE TERRORIST STATE OF PURE EVIL — through a combination of a Hostage-related Asset Release, Wide-ranging Sanctions Relief, and Lax Enforcement that Unlocked Oil Revenues. Open the Books’ CEO, John Hart, presents Transaction-level Data and Reconciled Government Records that leave no reasonable doubt — this was not mere “Policy Miscalculation”; —It was a Documented Transfer of Economic Advantage to a Hostile State that enabled Proxy Violence across the Middle East.

🔥 BIDEN PAID $160 BILLION TO THE TERRORIST STATE WITH THE MOST AMERICAN BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS!

🔥 BIDEN PAID $160 BILLION — PARTS OF WHICH WENT TO HAMAS AND FUNDED THEIR OCTOBER 7 MASSACRE ON ISRAEL!

This is not an Accusation resting on Inference. It is a chain of Evidence — Public Records, Energy Information Administration Figures, and Contract and Grant Disclosures — that proves Taxpayer-funded Policies Materially strengthened Tehran’s Fiscal Capacity and, by Extension, its Ability to Underwrite Terror Proxies and Develop Nuclear Weapons and ICBM Missiles aimed at Nuking the United States and Europe with MILLIONS OF LIVES LOST.

What Open the Books Has Proven

Open the Books’ accounting arrives at a stark number — $160 BILLION — broken down into:
A $6 BILLION Release tied to a September 2023 Prisoner Exchange and approximately
$154 BILLION in Sanctions-Relief Value and Enforcement Forbearance that permitted Iran’s Oil and Financial Channels to rebound.
The Organization matched Government Statements, Treasury and State Department Authorization Memos, and International Trade and Revenue Data to demonstrate how these moves converted into Real Funds available to the IRANIAN TERROR DICTATORSHIP.

John Hart laid out the documented mechanics on Fox Business: First, a targeted $6 BILLION Asset Release used to secure the Freedom of detained Americans; second, Systematic Easing of Oil-related Enforcement and Waivers — including a Renewal allowing Iraq to buy Electricity from Iran with Funds convertible into Euros — that cumulatively restored Tens of BILLIONS of Dollars in Revenue to Tehran. The Audit traces where Regulatory Relaxations coincided with sharp Upswings in Export Receipts and identifies the Instruments that made Conversion and International Use feasible.

Concrete Mechanisms and Confirmed Flows

Open the Books’ Report is explicit about the specific Mechanisms that produced the proven Flow of Funds:

1. The $6 BILLION Prisoner-Exchange Release — proven: Government Transaction Records and State Department Briefings confirm the unfreezing of Sanctioned Assets in September 2023 in direct Exchange for five Americans held in Iran. Despite Public assurances that the Proceeds would be limited to “humanitarian transactions,” Open the Books shows how the fungibility of State Budgets created an undeniable budgetary effect:
   Freeing $6 BILLION in Funds that reduced Tehran’s need to spend domestically and thereby Liberated other Resources that could be diverted to Terror Proxies like Terrorist Armies like Hezbollah and Hamas.
   ‎‎‎
2. Oil sanctions Non-enforcement, 2021–2023 — proven:
   The U.S. Energy Information Administration Data demonstrate that Iranian Petroleum Export Revenues rebounded dramatically during the Period when Enforcement slackened, climbing to Tens of BILLIONS Annually.
   Open the Books traced Waiver Documents, Currency-Conversion Memoranda, and Export Statistics to show that Policy Changes regarding Escrow Requirements and Enforcement Discretion converted into real Economic Benefit — including a Documented $10 BILLION Waiver tied to Iraqi Energy Purchases after November 2024 that allowed Tehran to access convertible Currency rather than Locked Escrow Dinars.
   ‎‎‎
3. Grants and programmatic payments touching Iran — proven:
   While Congress has long prohibited direct foreign assistance to Iran, a documented Web of Grants, Educational Exchanges, and Research Contracts with Institutions that used Iranian-based Partners shows Taxpayer-funded Touchpoints. The group located Grant Records, Subaward Filings, and Departmental Expense Reports — including small but noteworthy Items such as a Subaward from a U.S. Academic Grant to an Iran-based Medical School — that confirm Taxpayer Funds reached Organizations with ties to Iran, sometimes without Real-time Public Oversight.
   ‎

Why this is a National-Security Breakthrough — not just a Policy Disagreement Open the Books’ work converts Theory into Verified Fact:
—Taxpayer Policies produced Material Financial Advantage for a DICTATORSHIP that funds Hamas and Hezbollah. The Audit Documents how increased Oil Receipts and The $6 BILLION Release created Fiscal Breathing Room allowing Tehran to divert Resources to Proxy Actors.

The facts are stark:
The October 7 Atrocities and subsequent Increases in Regional Violence are now demonstrably financed in Part by the very liquidity THESE BIDEN POLICIES GENERATED!

This is NOT Partisan Rhetoric.
It is a Recorded Ledger of BIDEN’S Policy Decisions, Regulatory Waivers, and Fiscal Outcomes.
To treat this as merely a debate over Diplomatic Options would be to ignore the proven Causal Link between BIDEN’S U.S. Policy Choices and Iran’s Capacity to fund Terror Proxies.

Accountability beyond the Revelation with the Facts established, the next Steps are Procedural and Urgent:

• Congressional Subpoenas and Oversight Hearings — mandatory: Committees with Jurisdiction must subpoena the memoranda, waiver approvals, and interagency communications authorizing the enforcement relaxations and the asset release.
  Officials at State, Treasury, USAID, and HHS must provide transaction-level records and explain how monitoring and escrow mechanisms were applied — or why they were not.
  ‎
• Forensic GAO and Inspector-General Audits — mandatory: The Government Accountability Office and Inspectors General should immediately undertake Forensic Audits to trace the $6 BILLION and to quantify how Sanctions Non-enforcement translated to the $154 BILLION Figure.
  Independent Auditors should reconcile Export Data, Collection Accounts, and Conversion Operations to generate an Incontrovertible Public Record.
  ‎
• Immediate Policy Fixes — Required: Any Waiver or Permission that allows Funds to be converted into Internationally Tradable Currency must be rescinded or restructured into Ironclad Escrow Arrangements. Future releases of assets must be accompanied by enforceable legal instruments preventing fungibility, and any foreign-aid program tangentially touching hostile states must be suspended pending full accounting.
  ‎
• Real-time Public Transparency — Demanded: Open the Books’ Central Policy Reform is now plainly necessary: Every Nation that receives U.S. Security or Economic Assistance must have a Real-Time, Searchable Database of Government Spending. That same Standard should be applied to Waivers and Escrow Accounts connected to hostile regimes so Taxpayers and Watchdogs can monitor Flows Contemporaneously. Congress should explain any such arrangement to the Tax Payers BEFORE they are entered into. The Biden Administration’s actions is TREASON and should never have been allowed by any measures!

A broader Problem of Marxist Bureaucratic Opacity and Mission Drift — proven in parallel Open the Books paired its Iran Findings with a Wider Audit of Federal Spending that shows a Pattern:
Outlays have ballooned far faster than headcounts at Agency after Agency, and Record-keeping is poor enough that Dozens of Defunct Entities still appear in the Federal Register!
The Watchdog Documented MASSIVE INCREASES in spending at NIH, the Department of Education, FEMA, USAID, and others — Instances where Taxpayer Dollars were routed through NGOs and Grantees without Searchable Public Ledgers.

Open the Books’ Auditors probed Programs from Migrant-aid Disbursements to USAID Cultural Projects and found numerous examples where Money left U.S. Hands and entered Opaque Networks. If Money flowing to a Hostile Regime could be proven with Government Records in the Iran Scandal, then the same scrutiny can and must be applied to ALL Foreign-facing Expenditures — Especially those that carry a Strategic Risk. If not — Taxpayers may very well end up footing the bill for a Terrorist Attack that sees them killed! WHICH EVER WAY YOU TURN THIS — THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!

Expected “Defenses” And Why They Fall Short

Defenders of the Biden Administration will invoke “the moral complexity” of hostage diplomacy, “humanitarian rationales”, and “the impossibility of guaranteeing absolute non-fungibility in a global financial system”. Those are familiar “arguments”, but they DO NOT NEGATE THE FACTS NOW ON PUBLIC RECORD: Transaction Approvals, Waiver Terms, and Revenue Data confirm Availability of Funds to the Dictators in Iran. “Humanitarian intent” does NOT erase the Documented Fiscal Effect.

Strategic Engagement and Targeted Aid can be Vital Instruments of Statecraft. The proven Failure here is a total Absence of Ironclad Controls, Escrow Protections, and Public Accounting that would have prevented Taxpayer-funded Resources from effectively enlarging the Fiscal Capacity of a State Sponsor of Terror. Until this has been cleaned up completely, Strategic Engagement and Targeted Aid cannot and should not be used, lest it Power another Enemy of the United States unwittingly.

A Mandate For Congress And For The Administration

This Revelation reframes Oversight as National Security Policy. Congress must act decisively: Subpoena the Records, demand Forensic Audits, freeze Programs where necessary, and pass Statutory Protections that prevent Fungibility of Released Assets. The Executive Branch must adopt Real-Time Transparency for any Instrument that moves Public Funds in International Transactions.

Open the Books has done the Hard Work of Proof — Assembling a Ledger that holds Officials’ Decisions to the Light — And discloses what can only be deemed as TREASON by the Biden Administration. The American People, having seen the Documented Trail, Deserve Swift, Corrective Action and an Institutional Redesign that makes repeating this Scandal impossible. To put it succinctly:

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE NEEDS JUSTICE! Biden and everybody involved with this Proverbial IRAN GATE, the Scandal of funneling Taxpayer Dollars into Industrial Terror — Terror that is aimed at those very same Taxpayers — should face Charges of having committed TREASON. It is the only thing resembling Justice. And such proceedings will also have the highly necessary Effect of preventing such Treasonous Acts of taking place in the Future.

This is not a Game of Partisan Accusation. It is a Confirmed Account of how Treasonous Policy Choices translated into Economic Power for one of the most Hostile Regime on the Planet. A Regime who slogan was “Death To America” with a Nuclear Program and an ICBM Program to back that Policy up! A Regime who’s Aim was to unleash a Nuclear Armageddon on their “little satan” — Israel and their “big satan” The United States, killing Tens of Millions of Americans in the Process.

The Duty now is Simple: Accountability, Audit, Reform, and JUSTICE! — And to ensure that Taxpayer Dollars are never again Converted into Leverage for those who wish America and its Allies Harm.

I warned the TRUMP Administration that several Presidential Documents that requires the President’s own signature was signed by Autopen, making them NULL AND VOID in my Article titled ‘Biden’s Last-Minute Family-Crony Pardons are INVALID‘

⚠️ ⚠️ ⚠️

I NOW HEREBY WARN THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION that Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. has committed TREASON against the United States of America while performing duties as “president” and should be
ARRESTED IMMEDIATELY together with Co-Conspirators on the charge of TREASON according to
18 U.S.C. § 2381 — Treason.
