The Biden admin’s days are numbered. Now the truth is finally coming out.
Because Biden and Harris have admitted to letting Iran get away with the unthinkable.
One of the most important jobs for the sitting U.S. President right now is to help ensure that Iran doesn’t get a nuclear weapon that can be used against one of their top enemies, which the United States certainly is. Though the American public is largely uninterested in any new war efforts, the threat of a nuclear Iran is one which no one can ignore.
Unless you’re Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, apparently. They’ve faced criticism for the past four years for their handling of the threat of Iran, with critics saying they’ve been appeasing Iran rather than working to ensure they are bankrupted and unable to build nuclear weapons.
Now, just weeks ahead of the election, the Biden-Harris administration is even admitting that Iran has been able to quickly grow its wealth to put towards nuclear programs, all because of their failed policies.
Iran Explodes In Wealth During Biden-Harris Tenure In White House
In early October, the Biden-Harris administration acknowledged that Iran has seen an increase in its wealth under its current policies and leadership. This admission comes at a time when Iran is recognized as the largest state sponsor of terrorism globally, actively supporting various terror networks throughout the Middle East, including Hezbollah and the Houthis. These groups have been implicated in attacks against U.S. and Israeli forces following Hamas’s assault on Israel on October 7, 2023.
The administration’s approach to Iran has seemingly softened sanctions in recent years, allowing the Islamic regime to amass billions in oil revenues. A recent report from the administration reveals the extent of Iran’s financial gains during this period.
Under the previous administration’s “maximum pressure” sanctions campaign, Iran’s oil revenues plummeted from approximately $65 billion in 2018 to $28 billion in 2019, and further down to $16 billion in 2020, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). However, after President Biden took office, Iran’s oil revenue began to rebound significantly: $37 billion in 2021, $54 billion in 2022, and $53 billion in 2023.

“Totally insane. This is not due to ‘sanctions evasion.’ This is by design,” remarked Richard Goldberg, a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, in a statement.
Iran’s oil industry is a key source of revenue, and under the Biden administration, Tehran has enjoyed greater access to these funds compared to the Trump era. While the Biden-Harris administration has not publicly lifted sanctions, the enforcement of these sanctions has been noticeably less stringent, allowing Iran to benefit financially.
The rationale behind this approach remains unclear, although the administration has long aimed to revive a nuclear deal. This multinational agreement, initially established by the Obama administration, permitted Iran to receive sanctions relief as long as it did not advance its nuclear program. The Trump administration withdrew from the deal in 2018, expressing concerns over Iran’s potential to generate substantial revenue while advancing its nuclear capabilities outside the terms of the agreement.
Iran continues to play a significant role in the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, which have resulted in tens of thousands of casualties and drawn in Western nations, including the United States. Following the Islamic regime’s launch of approximately 180 missiles into Israeli territory on October 1, retaliatory strikes by Israel against Iran are anticipated.
A little foreign policy convo last night on @cnn … Dem disarray at the highest levels on Iran and Russia, it seems to me. Plus Harris and Biden failed on Afghanistan, miserably. pic.twitter.com/7LCF1Ex1MY

Now there’s been early rumors indicating that the Biden-Harris administration is considering bypassing Congressional approval to assist Israel with a new attack on Iran, potentially starting a new war for the U.S. in the Middle East.
