The Biden Administration is talking tough about Russian sanctions and energy independence—but how is that reflected in their policy choices? We break down how the administration’s entry into Putin’s Iran Nuclear Deal, flirtation with Venezuelan oil imports, and staunch refusal to become energy independent is hurting the economy, the environment, and the image America projects to the world. Is it really an Iranian nuclear deal if it includes lifting sanctions on Russia? We also review the lowlights of a very non-memorable State of the Union. How long until “Nationalize the Police” becomes a leftist hashtag? Maurice revisits some of his earlier remarks on Russia.
