Washington Post reporter Jason Rezaian has been held in Iran on charges including espionage for over one year, and an Iranian court has reportedly convicted him:

An outrage compounded. WashPo reporter #JasonRezaian sentenced by Iran. But sentence not made public. http://t.co/nPi2gV3JhM @brianstelter

State Dept: no "official confirmation" of #JasonRezaian verdict, but Iran should drop charges http://t.co/bGOqXlsdqV h/t @JustinFishelABC

The White House made excuses for why the release of prisoners was not included as a demand in the Iran deal.
Fox News’ Adam Housley joins those who are astounded that, in spite of all this, the White House and other Dems are celebrating an “historic” nuke agreement:
So we make this "essential" nuke deal w/Iran and they launch missile tests and now convict the American reporter of espionage #whatajoke

This is completely unacceptable what the Iranians are doing. Jason Rezaian is a reporter for the Washington Post. Where is U.S. outrage?

Hardly surprising considering we’re talking about an administration that wants everybody to believe that “death to America” is just political rhetoric intended for a domestic audience.

Yep, that’s what the Ayatollah Khamenei said.
