We knew in 1987;that Baker and other members of the inner circle met with Iranian officials and gave them literally millions of dollars to hold onto the hostages.

Democratic congressional leaders made the miscalculation to not impeach him for treason because he was a lame duck.

That this asshat is finally fessing up to his part in the scheme is news, but the deal with the Iranian leaders is 35 years old news.
