While the focus was on Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, something the Obama administration did on a Friday evening was flying under the radar:

Oh great. Obama administration further eases Iran sanctions, puts news out Friday of holiday weekend. https://t.co/Cb539VB0Ly

From the AP:

Shortly before 6 p.m. Friday at the start of the Columbus Day holiday weekend in the United States, the Treasury Department published new guidance for businesses that said some previously prohibited dollar transactions with Iran by offshore banking institutions are allowed as long as they do not enter the U.S. financial system.

Will this culmination in Iran being sent another pallet of cash? We’ll see.

Fundamental transformation continues. https://t.co/HFpHbCG8qi
