The latest report by the International Monetary Fund makes especially grim reading for the Iranian regime, as it shows the country’s foreign reserves have collapsed from around $140 billion in 2015 to just $4 billion today.
Iran’s perilous economic state has, unsurprisingly, prompted nationwide protests at the regime’s gross mismanagement of the economy.
With Mr Raisi’s triumph, the hardliners have secured victory for a man with the perfect qualifications for crushing anti-regime dissent…. Under his presidency, the Iranian people can expect more of the same as the regime intensifies its efforts to tighten its hold on power.
Mr Raisi’s comments effectively mean that Mr Biden’s hopes of expanding the terms of the nuclear deal are dead in the water. Consequently, rather than persisting with the nuclear talks in Vienna, the US leader should cut his losses, and end the charade of trying to revive the ill-considered nuclear deal with Tehran.
US President Joe Biden must give serious consideration to abandoning his ill-conceived plan to revive the nuclear deal with Tehran following the election victory of Iran’s new hardline president, Ebrahim Raisi.

The appointment of the 60-year-old Mr Raisi as Iran’s eighth president since the 1979 revolution means that, far from being prepared to make any further concessions in the nuclear talks, the regime under his leadership is certain to adopt a far more aggressive and uncompromising stance in its dealings with the US and its allies.
The hardening of Iran’s position can already be detected in the recent upsurge in attacks against US personnel based in Iraq by pro-Iranian militias.

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!
