Jones: “It won't be American money, but I'm not sure that's relevant, because if it's the Qataris giving them the money, if the money is still going to terror, then that's a problem”

LAWRENCE JONES (CO-HOST): Let's talk about the deal. I think this continues to be a big news story because we haven't seen the text. The vice president was on yesterday, he reacted to it, he said a lot of the things that we are hearing out there is propaganda. But some reputable sources are starting to tell us some of the stuff that's in the deal, and I have three main concerns. And I think president kind of alluded to it, at first we were going to destroy the dust, I'm hearing that in the deal that they plan on downblending it, meaning it won't be quite nuclear, but at any point, the Iranians could ramp back up and decide to make that nuclear. Also, when it comes to the money, it is true that in the deal it won't be American money, but I'm not sure that's relevant, because if it's the Qataris giving them the money, if the money is still going to terror, then that's a problem, and I don't believe that they have left their radical ways.
