President Obama is apparently getting really tired of all the alleged misinformation surrounding the Iran nuclear deal. So tired, in fact, that he's turned to Twitter.
In order to combat deal's critics, the White House has launched @TheIranDeal, a Twitter account that will supposedly fact-check "misinformation and falsehoods" about the deal, as well as tweet out handy facts. The Twitter profile also links to a new WhiteHouse.gov page that similarly fleshes out the deal with videos and graphs.
