Surely such a deal would have to be approved by Congress, right? Would they really have the votes?

I would campaign that the deal be fulfilled with private money instead of public funds. (Or, act to show - roots and consequences - that this should be the proper procedure.)

Why was it bad for Obama to release much less than this to assure the earlier joint agreement? We heard a lot about how bad that was. Pallets of cash they said, real bad.

This would be an incredible $1,800 from each taxpayer sent overseas to the Iranian regime. On top of what’s already been spent and the inflation caused. In any other time in history just this alone (ignoring all the other scandals) would lead to something like a landslide 100 seat swing in the house. The fact polls show we’ll be lucky to see 10 seats switch shows how incredibly broken our information environment has become.
