- President Donald Trump didn't miss an opportunity to take a shot at Democrats in his Wednesday address to the nation following Iran's missile strike on US-occupied bases in Iraq on Tuesday night.
- The president repeatedly disparaged the 2015 Iran nuclear deal negotiated by the US, China, France, Germany, Russia, and the UK, which Trump controversially abandoned in 2018.
- But then Trump went further, questionably claiming the 2015 deal "paid for" more than 20 missiles Iran fired at Iraqi bases in retaliation for the US's assassination of the country's top military general last week.
- Politifact rated a similar claim made in a viral Facebook post (that "Iran will be shooting at our soldiers with bullets, etc., purchased with the $150 billion Obama gave them") "mostly false."
- As part of the nuclear deal, Iran regained access to an estimated $56 billion worth of frozen assets the country already owned. It is unclear what Iran has used its unfrozen funds for, and Trump offered no evidence to support his claim.
