Telling It Like It Is

On Wednesday, The Hill posted an article that included a few rather blunt comments from Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana.

The article reports:

Republican Sen. John Kennedy (La.) dug into President Biden’s foreign policy on Iran on Tuesday, claiming he would “take away” the president’s car keys if he were his son.

“When I look at President Biden in terms of his international affairs, national security and his domestic policy over the last two years and change — if it were my father, I’d take away his car keys, much less … the entire country, and I think … that’s what most Americans are thinking right now,” Kennedy said in an interview on Fox Business’s “The Bottom Line.”

The Senator also noted:

President Trump put tough, tough sanctions on Iran, so it couldn’t export its oil,” Kennedy said. “Those sanctions are still there, but President Biden hasn’t enforced them. So now, instead of … producing and exporting 500,000 barrels a day, Iran is exporting 1.4 million a day, and its foreign reserves have doubled. We had Iran down, and we were choking them economically.”

“President Biden, because he thought if he was a nice guy, Iran would cooperate in terms of its nuclear weapons — he let them up, and on top of that, he gave them … tried to give them $6 billion cash,” Kennedy continued, in reference to Biden’s prisoner swap with Iran last month that allowed for the release of $6 billion in frozen Iranian funds.

The war in Israel would end quickly if the economic sanctions were put back on Iran and the aid to Gaza was stopped. The actions of America and the European Union are funding this war. The war in Ukraine could be stopped with American energy independence. All we need to do is drop the cost of oil so that Russia cannot afford to continue to war with Ukraine. Unfortunately too many people make too much money during a war, and those people make massive campaign donations.

Quotes From Senator Kennedy

On Wednesday, Townhall posted an article that featured Senator John Kennedy’s comments on the Biden family scandal.

Here are some of the wonderful quotes:

Noting that “it’s almost always the cover-up and not the crime” that proves most damaging, Sen. Kennedy added he is “repeatedly amazed at how many smart people there are in Washington, D.C. who have no sense.”

…”I do know this — and I think the American people can see it — the Washington managerial elite, the establishment if you will, is working harder than an ugly stripper to cover up whatever happened,” said Kennedy. “And that’s all that Congress is asking for, is the facts.”

…”To the point that they have no sense,” Kennedy continued, “the elite in Washington think that the American people don’t see that they’re covering up and that they’re being obstructionist. Maybe it’s a reflection of the contempt they have for the American people, but any fair-minded person can see that our efforts to get to just the facts are being obstructed,” said Sen. Kennedy.

“It started with Hunter Biden’s laptop,” Kennedy explained of the D.C. establishment’s demonstrated track record of working to cover for Hunter Biden. “They tried to convince the American people it wasn’t real and it was,” he reminded. “And I think many people in the federal government knew almost from the inception that it was real, and so a lot of folks lied to the American people.”

No one says it quite like Senator Kennedy.
