ICYMI: Rubio Slams the Revival of the Iran Nuclear Deal
Iran oil is fueling Russia’s war machine – US must not lift sanctions on Tehran

… Recent reporting reveals that Iran is supplying Russia with illicit oil supplies to finance his war in Ukraine. This is alarming to say the least, because America and its allies are on the verge of providing a $10 billion windfall to the terrorist regime in Tehran.
For reasons that are still unclear, the Biden administration has long sought to revive the failed Obama-era 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. Reports suggest an agreement is imminent…. [R]emoving sanctions and allowing the sale of Iranian oil across the globe would be a massive victory for Tehran — and a massive loss for the U.S.

Americans deserve better. The family of Bob Levinson deserves better….
