On Wednesday, The Hill<\/a> posted an article that included a few rather blunt comments from Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Republican Sen.\u00a0John Kennedy\u00a0<\/a><\/span>(La.) dug into President Biden\u2019s foreign policy on Iran on Tuesday, claiming he would \u201ctake away\u201d the president\u2019s car keys if he were his son.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I look at\u00a0President Biden\u00a0<\/a><\/span>in terms of his international affairs, national security and his domestic policy over the last two years and change \u2014 if it were my father, I\u2019d take away his car keys, much less \u2026 the entire country, and I think \u2026 that\u2019s what most Americans are thinking right now,\u201d Kennedy said\u00a0in an interview<\/a>\u00a0on Fox Business\u2019s \u201cThe Bottom Line.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Senator also noted:<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Trump\u00a0<\/a><\/span>put tough, tough sanctions on Iran, so it couldn\u2019t export its oil,\u201d Kennedy said. \u201cThose sanctions are still there, but President Biden hasn\u2019t enforced them. So now, instead of \u2026 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.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Biden, because he thought if he was a nice guy, Iran would cooperate in terms of its nuclear weapons \u2014 he let them up, and on top of that, he gave them \u2026 tried to give them $6 billion cash,\u201d Kennedy continued, in reference to Biden\u2019s prisoner swap with Iran last month that allowed for the release of $6 billion in frozen Iranian funds.<\/strong><\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
