| 0:00.0 | So, Hillary and Obama lied again, because, of course, they did. President Obama claimed |
| 0:04.9 | last week $400 million sent to Iran at the exact same time Iran was releasing American |
| 0:10.1 | hostages. Not wasn't a ransom payment. It was all just a big old, big coincidence. Hillary |
| 0:15.1 | Clinton said, quote, the White House has talked about this, and this is kind of old news. |
