In late February, President Biden ordered an air-strike on Iran-backed militias in Syria. The week before, the Biden administration joined with European partners in offering to begin talks with Iran for the first time in four years. However, when Tehran told the United States it wanted the devastating Trump-era sanctions lifted before showing up to the negotiation table, the Biden administration said no deal.
At face value, Joe Biden seems to be exacting tougher policy on Tehran than was expected of an administration operating in the shadow of the Obama-era nuclear deal.
Even Jared Kushner, a former senior adviser to President Trump and one of the main architects of the Abraham Accords, commended the Biden administration’s Iranian approach in an op-ed published in the Wall Street Journal this week. The piece encouraged the new administration to continue leading with strength in the often unstable region.
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
