Desperate to pursue a policy of appeasement at all costs.
“Biden Admin Withholds Secret Iran Agreement From Congress,” by Adam Kredo, Washington Free Beacon, January 23, 2022:
The Biden administration is withholding a “secret agreement” with Iran from Congress as negotiations over a revamped nuclear deal continue in Vienna, according to two Republican lawmakers.
Reports emerged late Friday that Russia proposed an interim nuclear deal to Iran with the knowledge of U.S. officials. The deal would reportedly lift some sanctions on Iran in exchange for a limited set of restrictions on the country’s nuclear program. Russia offered the deal to Iran on the sidelines of ongoing negotiations in Vienna, according to NBC News, which first reported on the document. Tehran is said to have rejected the interim deal, saying that it prefers a large-scale agreement that will provide it with billions in cash windfalls. Republican lawmakers say details of the agreement are being kept from Congress.
“Russia sent a secret agreement to Iran,” Rep. Michael McCaul (R., Texas), lead Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, told the Washington Free Beacon on Friday during a press call. “Russia is trying to take the lead now in the negotiations with Iran. This is a secret agreement. We haven’t seen it.”
The existence of this document indicates that the United States and international partners are eyeing an alternative interim agreement with Iran as efforts to ink a revamped version of the 2015 accord stall due to Iran’s increasingly hardline stance. Republicans in Congress say that, during the past year, the Biden administration has ignored requests for briefings on the status of talks and what a new deal will look like. The Free Beacon first reported last week that the Biden administration is obstructing more than a dozen congressional investigations into the negotiations and sanctions relief.
The Biden administration is required to present any new deal to Congress before it is signed due to a 2015 law, the Iran Nuclear Deal Review Act, that was passed after the Obama administration skirted congressional oversight to sign the original accord.
“Reports that the Biden administration is working with the Russians on a secret nuclear agreement with Iran are doubly concerning,” Rep. Mike Gallagher (R., Wis.), a member of the House Armed Services Committee, told the Free Beacon. “First, they create a conflict of interest with Russia as we are trying to prevent an invasion of Ukraine. Second, preemptive sanctions relief, and failure to transmit an interim agreement to Congress, would violate the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act. The administration needs to end their simultaneous surrender to Russia and Iran before it’s too late.”…
If a new deal with the United States is reached, Iran will see all economic sanctions imposed on it by the Trump administration removed. This includes sanctions on Iran’s oil sector, a key source of cash for the regime.

That disingenuous and insidious president impostor Joe Biden will stop a no deception to aid and support America’s enemy that wants to destroy her.
Biden is a treasonous villain of most dangerous sort.

Bribed-man is a two-faced double-dealer. How naive can anyone be to trust the word of the ayatollahs? The ayatollahs certainly know better than to trust Bribed-man.

Secret Iran deal? Threatening war with Russia? “Look were they ain’t” – Taiwan.

Putin is likely threatening invasion of Ukraine because he believes that Biden is weak.

That Obama — back to his old tricks, enabling the enemies of Israel in secret. This time with a corrupt dotard buffoon as a figurehead.

Yep, and today on TV a slip of honesty by the repugnant Jen Psaki.
“… This is an honor and a privilege and I love working for President Obam–Biden.”

Biden is the disaster which keeps “contributing.” The man’s entire life has been a waste. As I have written before, he is indeed the man with no qualities. If anyone can come up with a single redeeming quality Biden possesses I would be interested in knowing what it is (N.B., his being an example of what not to be does not count as a redeeming quality).
No big fan of abortion but I would have made exceptions in Joe Biden’s case and that of Anthony Fauci. America would be far better off if these two men had never lived in the first place. Yes, both this awful.

Joe Biden with his incessant striving to release and wave sanctions on that aggressive and hostile Islamic regime of Iran because, that Biden actually “owes” much to that Iranian “mullah regime.”.
This is so because those Muslim tyrants of Iran had actually meddled and interfered in the American presidential election by supporting the Biden bid for the Oval Office during the elections year of 2020.
So now in the year 2022 that that “mullah regime” with their stooge and useful idiot to archive they want to obtain on their Islamic agenda.
One of the many reliable sources that will confirm this is the video documentary TRUMP CARD by Dinesh D’ Souza.

“..those Muslim tyrants of Iran had actually meddled and interfered in the American presidential election by supporting the Biden bid for the Oval Office during the elections year of 2020.”
True, but most of the cyber attacks came from China.

That despicable “president” pretender Biden and his administration will give that aggressive hostile vicious tyrannical Islamic everything it wants.
Those demonically ambitious and sinister jihad –minded Muslims who have all the power in that hostile and menacing Islamic regime of Iran will continue in the unreasoning Islamic quest in the manufacture and construction of nuclear weapons. Therefore any so called “negotiation” with the officials of the Islamic “Republic” of Iran is a complete and total waste of time and effort.
For those disingenuous and outright lying officials of that aggressive, brutal and deceptive tyrannical Islamic state will only speak the truth only then it happens to suite them. Likewise, those in control and power in that “mullah tyranny” of Iran will only keep any of the promises they many happen to make only as long as it would suite them and no longer.
Furthermore, that fiendish President of Iran ,Raisi in power in that tyrannical Islamic regime of Iran it’s now a rather appropriate time to bring out the fact that if the founder of the current Islamic tyranny ,Ayatollah Khomeini would still be alive today ,he would spit on Joe Biden.
The reason is that Biden had publicly declared and claimed, “Islam is a non-violent religion” In other words he said that “Islam is not a religion of violence.”
Pseudo President Biden is a liar and the Muslim clerics of Iran know that.
For as Ayatollah Khomeini had clearly announced that “Those who know nothing about Islam pretend that Islam counsels against war….There are hundreds psalms and hadiths urging of Muslims to value war and to fight. …I spit upon those foolish souls who make such a claim.” [1]
There are also many places in the Qu ‘ran that instruct in violence and killing for the cause of Islam.
As found in ,for example Surah 2:191. 4:89.. 5:33. 9:5, 111,112 ,123. 47:4.
Therefore if Khomeini alive and well in this year of 2021 he would spit upon Joe Biden.

……………..
You *know* the appeasement is bad when you have to hide it from Congress (yes, there are some good members of Congress–but they are pretty few and far between).

Well, as Kathy Kirby put it … It’s no secret, any more!
