Biden's Iran screw-up

 Jazz Shaw:

Yesterday we looked at the news that the Biden administration had caved to the demands of Iran and waived some of the sanctions currently imposed on them in a bid to get the talks in Geneva moving and restart the “Iran deal” that Barack Obama and Joe Biden originally set up in 2015. The waiving of sanctions was done in secret, with the White House not even informing Congress for ten days after the move was made. This was supposed to be the carrot that would tempt the Iranians into making some concessions regarding their covert nuclear weapons program.

It didn’t take long to learn how well that was going to work. Reuters is reporting that the envoys from Iran not only failed to offer any new concessions, but they “walked back” all of the previous concessions they had proposed. In the process, they put the gains they made from Biden waiving some of our sanctions in their collective pockets and walked out. There is no projected date for when the talks might resume.

...

Biden's foreign policy has been one of the most incompetent in history from Afghanistan to Iran.  His team seems as bad as he is.

Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
