under the obama administration there was operation choke point which was an operation by the obama administrationsqueeze legal firearms dealers out of the banking system. there is a concern here based on what she said about oil industries that she will use her position to do the same with industries that are opposed to what the biden administration and democrats want to do. >> sandra: we will continue to follow every bit of that. lawmakers have a lot more questions. katie, thank you. come back soon. >> john: president biden signed 3 pieces of bipartisan legislation in support of local and federal law enforcement. highlights include faster benefits for first responders disabled in the line of duty and suspects who kill or try to kill federal officials abroad can be prosecuted in the united states. the justice department will give it a grant worth 139-million dollars to hire more than 1,000 new police officers nationwide. police department across the country face recruiting issue and rising crime and calls to reduce police funding. it's amazing to see the reversal by democrats on this defund the po

shockingly, in the last year of the obama administration, when president obama was making nice with theastro dictatorship, the u.s. actually abstained on the u.n. vote denouncing america. it was totally shameful. the point is this, at the u.n. and in international relations generally, you cannot expect the rest of the world to respect you if you don't respect yourself. this embarrassing abstention was unfortunately not just limited to cuba. in president obama's closing days, the u.n. security council took up resolution 2334. you remember it. it was an anti-israel wishlist. it declared illegal all israeli activity in all territory that changed hands in 1967, including the jewish quarter of jerusale'' old citys and the holiest j ewish site. in a breathtaking betrayal, the obama administration abstained on resolution 2334 and allowed it to pass. when i got to the u.n., i found out what really happened. the resolution passed because the u.s. pushed it and told other countries we would not exercise our veto. it was a slap in the face to our brothers and sisters in israel, and a real blemish

that's what happened in 2009 the first year of the obama administration and the second year of the obamatration they got crushed. that is likely to happen again a year from now. >> martha: when we come back i will ask you about president trump and glenn youngkin and the way youngkin handled the virginia race. we will take a quick break and talk about and what you see about the path for this bill they want to vote on. right after this break. stay with us. >> passing such legislation is not easy. but the long hours we are putting into it will be well worth it. liberty mutual. they customize my car insurance, so i only pay for what i need. how about a throwback? you got it. ♪ liberty, liberty - liberty, liberty ♪ uh, i'll settle for something i can dance to. ♪ liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty ♪ ♪ ♪ only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty ♪ >> martha: rejoined by senator minority leader mitch mcconnell. it was interesting to see the way that glenn youngkin orchestrated the issue of former president trump. kept him at arm's distance but able to turnout the vote and

you were inside the obama administration when they lost the house and the senate. the democrats are not wanting to repeat that. yet again come midterms in a year or so from now. what would you have done differently back then or advised to have been done differently to be applied now? >> look. i think when we look back at 2010 david axelrod's the presidential adviser and told the president he would lose the house and the senate. i think it's time to get past the debates on capitol hill. past the build back better plan. combine it and talk to the american people what's in it and why we did it. right? we want to come out of this pandemic stronger. we want to put in front of the american people that because of build back better the health care is cheaper. prescription drugs will be cheaper. child care will be cheaper. things that go into the middle class economics that many families sitting at the kitchen table discussing. i think a lot of things came into making the infrastructure bill got done. one of them was the president is more involved in those discussions. i th

at that point, that was toward the end of the obama administration. people recall that president obama, when he campaign for office, particularly his second term, he promised to end the war and bring all u.s. troops home by this time the second term ended. that did not happen. at that time people assume the world was coming to an end. it was not a conclusive end but they thought it was coming to an end that the troops would come out and still the government had been portraying has asked access, that we could leave an afghan government would be strong to defend itself. here is general flynn who will be the new national security advisor saying no, it is nonsense, we've been losing and wind down since 2006 onward. then i want to know what that the under interview say with the other commanders and diplomats and other people. i thought after we won or lost that they would give up and give us the other documents we requested. the other interviews with 400 other people played a role in the world. the inspector general dug in their heels and said no we will no

president oversaw the american rescue plan, which we saw after the last great recession under the obama administration that he oversaw, and it was very effective. he knows what he's doing. this is his plan. we have administration expertise to get it done. so i'm very confident we can get it done. >> brennan: but this will only really work if you can fix some of the bottled necks in the globlg supply chain to get the cement, to get all the workers hired here. we're seeing a record number of workers quitting their jobs. companies are saying they can't even find laborers. so how do you deal with the fact that you have all these economic headwinds, including rising consumer prices? can you unstick those? >> well, you put a lot in there. let's start with the people leaving their jobs. people are leaving jobs, but they're leaving jobs for better jobs. they're not leaving the job market. they are getting better jobs under this biden economy. and part of the what the bipartisan infrastructure bill does is it will ease supply chain issues, and it will also ease the inflationary pressures, which is why you see

at that point, that was toward the end of the obama administration. people recall that president obama, when he campaign for office, particularly his second term, he promised to end the war and bring all u.s. troops home by this time the second term ended. that did not happen. at that time people assume the world was coming to an end. it was not a conclusive end but they thought it was coming to an end that the troops would come out and still the government had been portraying has asked access, that we could leave an afghan government would be strong to defend itself. here is general flynn who will be the new national security advisor saying no, it is nonsense, we've been losing and wind down since 2006 onward. then i want to know what that the under interview say with the other commanders and diplomats and other people. i thought after we won or lost that they would give up and give us the other documents we requested. the other interviews with 400 other people played a role in the world. the inspector general dug in their heels and said no we will no

you were a climate change negotiator in the clinton and the obama administrations.making great strides on the environmental issue. to what degree do you think president biden should also be given credit on that front? i think president biden deserves enormous credit. he has started by appointing an all—star team. secretary kerry has decades of experience on this issue and brings enormous stature to the role of presidential climate envoy, and that is the beginning. we could go down the list of his cabinet secretaries, his national climate advisor, gina mccarthy — they're all extraordinary. and then, he has made very serious commitments on the part of the united states to significantly reduce emissions. it's developing regulations to address this issue, pushing policies within our congress and has already accomplished a lot. i think president biden is doing a greatjob on this issue. very briefly — you were at the first ever cop. how did this one compare? one major difference, alice, is the difference in profile. 25 years ago, this issue did not bring heads of state to

cheryl atkinson had her computer center phones illegally spied on by the obama administration doj. the biden years. >> emily: so true, it's as if it is halloween. a new report says more people this christmas are claiming to give secondhand gifts this year. what secondhand gift with the panel give to someone they love, and someone they don't have so much. a kamala harris bobblehead is on our list. that gives you a hand. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ newday's low rate refi offers their lowest rate in history. two and a quarter percent. just 2.48 apr. save thousands every year and there are no upfront costs. not one dollar. the newday low rate refi. take advantage of these record low rates so you and your family can save. ♪ ♪ >> emily: admitted of inflation and the supply chain crisis, 56% of people are open to receiving a secondhand gift for christmas. what secondhand gift would we give to someone we love or someone we don't love? >> kayleigh: a momento from my time at the white house, president trump handed out these golden keys. i don't think i would ever give it away but maybe if i really loved you and

yes, it's true, the obama administration, they hit, with the democrats helping them, they hit between $1.5 and $1.6 trillion deficit in one year. well, this administration, this democrat majority, are working very hard to eclipse that by a lot. we were warned back when we had over $1 trillion deficit more than one year that gee, the agencies that rate countries, commis, and their currency, their debt, they may have to rate, downgrade our debt. standard and poor did that. because we wouldn't get our spending under control. not enough. if any other rating agency had downgrade our debt then the cost of borrowing money would have gone up dramatically and we would have ended up spending more, paying interest than we were taking care of seniors who were counting on their fixed income. so there's some dark days ahead if we continue on this course of spending money we don't have. it's like everything this administration can see to throw money at that might help create more democrat party voters, they're throwing money at it. so people were shocked, including democrat friends, who are shocked

the republicans impose obama on the administration. they oppose obama on health care. and when ida's in of us say, okay well or what are we going to do for republicans, they shut us, down and said no we are not gonna talk about how our agenda is, we're going to talk about obamas. you will see that under republican control with mccartney become speaker during a biden era. but you will also see them play off more on the culture wars and on the grievance politics of the conspiracy theories on the anti-truth campaign related to january six and whatever it might be, because it's angry populist threat it will elevate them it's the only thing that will keep them there if they don't have a policy agenda, which they. don't >> we've played that members of congress again called forth some stuff to get offered some messages and i said this many times on the show that being an angry jerk to an elected representative is kind of what your writers in american, and it's almost literally the definition of a free country you know you can get up in a meeting, you can yell at them that's f

congress was not as enthusiastic about this deal as the obama administration was. and congress put certain restrictions on it. this was something democrats and republicans voted on together to force the president to reassert iran was complying with the deal every six months or so. when trump came to office he was no fan of this deal. he used the opportunity of this six-month renewal congress mandated to take the opportunity to not sign the renewal and effectively withdraw the united states from the nuclear deal. it's a concrete example. we are feeling that effect today. we are a couple of days away from negotiations to figure out if there is a way the united states can reenter the deal in a way that satisfies american national interests in terms of trying to keep iran's nuclear deal under check and whether iran even once to have the united states -- wants to have the united states reenter the deal. it's a profound and important role and i think one that cannot be overlooked when talking about foreign-policy. i frequently try to include legislators talking about dis

biden did that as vice president when we did the recovery package at the beginning of the obama administration. we have got to implement it right, and then we have to go out and sell our success. you're right, glenn youngkin did okay in the suburbs. but some of the sushes we're talking about, terry mcauliffe won louden by 10 points. we won handily. we won prince william handily. we won fairfax overwhelmingly. you're right, there were some jurisdiction where's we didn't perform the way we used to. but i do attribute that to democrats in congress not delivering. and, again, the republicans were hungry. when you lose every year-- we have an election every year. when you lose 12 years in a row, people want to win. more power to them. >> brennan: quickly, how do you assess the trump factor here? is that what drove rural voter turnout? you had this sort of endorsement from afar? >> it's-- it's an interesting one. i-- i think the fact that youngkin kept trump up on the of the state proved smart because virginia's a battleground state. it's not a blue state, but virginia republicans are no dummies, an

in your reporting did your research what the obama administration had for their pandemic plan that thetrump administration either ignored or recommended or and the shorter version is how much time might have been lost if they didn't act on the existing administration . >> that's a great question. a few days before trump was inaugurated there was a meeting in the eisenhower executive office building with essentially all of obama's candidate all trumps incoming cabinets and it took a tradition that had started a couple administrations before they walked through various catastrophic events to try to prepare the new cabinet for how to respond one was to take an active shooter in a college campus . one was a tornado or hurricane and the third was a pandemic , like a flu . and someone shared with me a photograph of everyone in the room . it was like mike flynn, mattis, all these people and what was striking about it was almost all those people were gone when the pandemic came. the first health secretary lasted like a year. i don't even know if they were paying attention during the briefing b

know i have been involved in peace making both in the clinton administration and then in the obama administration the clinton administration, it blew up in our face and in the obama administration, when i was a special envoy, it failed again. the parties were further apart at the end of the negotiations than at the beginning and that was th last negotiations that's been held so i wanted to go back and try to learn from the master of game, as the title of the book, how to make peace and how not to make peace because he was so successful at laying the foundations of arab-israeli peace process in the 1970's. judy: you say he was successful at laying the foundation and yet peace still eludes the middle east. there have been a movement here, a movement there, but it still isn't reality. and you write about the art of diplomacy as much as the strategy that he pursued. why does that matter? >> well, first of all, significant progress has been made. it depends on how you look at the glass. the peace treaty between israel and egypt and the two agreements he negotiated between israel and egypt laid the fou

>> i served under the obama administration. we did have some battles. we had to sue the obama administration during the course of litigation but years before that massachusetts and regulating greenhouse gases was a case we won. i am so grateful to wake up this morning with the biden harris administration. we have been pushing them onad initiatives and we will keep pushing for opportunities to partner with them on addressing climatedr change including healh care and dealing with the fundamental economic -- standing up for reproductive rights. many of our states joined the u.s. department of justice to successfully hold that banned from going forward in taxes. one of the things that has been so -- this directive is what the trump administration did with the constitution and the rule of law. it is so worth brushing to have an administration that believes inng data but the consequences f those years were significant and we live with every day. we need the democratic ags both the federal partners and local partners to really push back going in a direction of

it was taking a strong line, but in the end the obama administration did not, nato did not, the europeanse threat of doing that consistently in the seven years since then, and there have been other moments in that period when there's been this acceleration of russian troop concentrations on the border with ukraine, but this in the past few weeks seems to be the most serious effort at least to knock very hard on europe's door, to send a scare across the western alliance. >> and what's the right response, bobby? because as we've mentioned ukraine is not part, it's not a member of the european union. there is a general understanding among nato countries that an invasion or an attack on one is an attack on the other and that doesn't fit when it comes to ukraine either. there have been a lot of noises on ukraine to become more western facing and integrated with the west. it is integrated to some degree with russia. what's the right thing to do if russia may or may not overtly or covertly try to interfere with ukrainian issues again? >> at this point we are in the message-sending part of this f

there's a lot of veterans of the obama administration in this white house.e big things a lot of folks say from the obama administration was not getting enough credit for the passage of obamacare. we see the white house getting the president out there now to show some specific examples of how this law is going to benefit people in specific communities. today he'll be in minnesota at a technical school and make the case that students being trained there will have jobs coming out because of this infrastructure bill and those will be high paying union jobs, is one message we expect to hear from the president. you mentioned the signing of this veteran's bill today, the supply chain issue and of course this new covid variant which seem to be overshadowing everything as we await more insight. >> we just saw president biden take to the podium there flanked by the vice president. we are going to keep an eye and ear on the president's comments and bring you any news as warranted. shannon, thank you. >>> package delays, higher prices at the grocery store, now even scho

we heard larry summers who also held the job that you now hold with obama administration that expressncerns about democrats not taking inflation seriously and only exacerbating the problem with these bills. now you have senior advisor in the obama administration writing this, build back better can be deemed paid for only if one embraces budget gimmicks assuming the most important initiatives will be allowed to expire in a few years, the result the frontload spending while tax revenues arrive only over a decade the responsible budget estimates the plan will add $800 billion or more to the deficit over the next five years. exacerbating stationary pressures. you are saying ratner in summers are both wrong? >> respectfully larry summers has been a critic of the policies of this administration nina said the bill back better bill will not increase inflation it makes much needed investments in the economy. it is been a while and washington since we've done the hard work of paying for it bill over ten years. that's what this bill does it has long-term investments like childcare, providing pre

on more of the benefits and protection costs of their drivers, so compared to the trump or obama administration, it is a less friendly regulatory environment. taylor: we have heard that about bringing back good paying, union jobs, this effort to reclassify these gig workers as full-time employees or unions as well. you mentioned the regulatory risk in the prop 22 in california, was initially it was like uber, doordash and lyft had won the battle, although the war is not over. what can we take away about that long-term war? >> i think it means it will be a series of battles in different states. i am hoping that with the other states learn from california's experience is that what drivers really want is keep the flexibility, keep the independent contractor arrangement, but wrap some good benefit rounded. we sometimes forget that full-time employment did not come in the 20 century packaged with benefits. we painstakingly constructed these benefits around full-time employment over the century. now we need to decouple them from the employee arrangement and offer them alternative work arrangements. l

i remember in 2009, the first year of the obama administration hearing the same arguments.he problem with what jason said is the reality of the world we live in. we have 50 democratic senators. so to get anything done almost assuredly requires the tie breaking vote of the vice president. at that is before we even dealt into the idea that in reality, you need 60 votes. so while i appreciate the passion behind it, we i don't think the statement lives were we honestly live in our government and in governing our country. i understand the frustration and i think that if you look at something like build back better, i think the process of this has far overwhelmed the substance of the. i can imagine if we had started it at two trillion, and we are wiggling this down to 1.75, or 1.75 children. people will think that this is a huge victory then starting at three trillion, two and a half trillion. and i think it's just a hard message when you are governing the country to have a little patience. but i do think that we are on the compass, you mentioned passing something as big as tilli

i spoke with someone from the obama administration who said, former president obama felt as though heing figure within the african-american community and within the nation, writ large. so this is going to be a momentous day at the national cathedral, jose, and it gets underway shortly. >> and i know some of the folks, the presidents that honored him and he honored them through his service. but you've been talking to a lot of people that worked with him or for him over the last couple of weeks. how are they remembering him? >> reporter: i have, jose. and i spoke with one person today who served in the obama administration, who said that when they think of colin powell, they think of the word "character," because that is the type of person who he was. he had a character that really guided his principles and his decisions. he had a strength of character, this person said, remember, he delivered that speech in 2003, at the u.n., to advocate for the war in iraq. what wound up being based on faulty intelligence. and this person said, colin powell had the character to come out and say that h

>> during the biden administration, nor during the obama administration did we execute the zero toleranceolicy that the trump administration promulgated and cruelly enforced. >> i would say the policies you have been implementing are complete tolerance for illegal migrants crossing our border. how many illegal aliens crossed into the country in 2020? >> i don't have -- >> i have the numbers from cbp in front of me, 458,000. how many illegal aliens have crossed into the states in 2021? >> i believe the number picking out of that approximately 1.7 million, the number of recidivists, so in other words, unique individuals approximately 1.3, 1.4 million. >> okay. >> would be my estimate. >> i have 1.7, but that fine. somewhere in between 2.5 to 4 times as much. >> no, because the 1.7 million figure to which you refer, senator, includes recidivists. >> let's say it's 1.3. it's still 2 1/2 times. are you satisfied that 2 1/2 times as many illegal migrants have crossed into this country this year as compared to last year? >> no, i'm not, but worse is to promulgate and operationalize a policy that

he left at the end of the obama administration, and the beginning of the trump administration.t was an outstanding team. most them stayed. i also inherited his policy he set in motion, including around opennoids where he set in motion an aggressive set of measures, increased regulation for immediate release on opennoids and started the discussion over the availability of opyoids which resulted in bipartisan legislation. rob did a lot. i was the beneficiary of a lot of things he set in motion. >> brennan: opyoids, of course, something that may couple in any hearing. thank you for your perspective. the former f.d.a. commissioner dr. scott gottlieb. we'll be right back. . >> brennan: you heard and have seen pictures of those fully loaded ships sitting in southern california's ports. tonight on "60 minutes," bill whitaker takes a closer look at the deep flaws in america's supply chain. we'll be right back. because his plan is backed by the team at fidelity. a group of investment professionals manages ben's ira for him, analyzing market conditions and helping him stay on target. he

things for years, including about the muslim community, when he left the military under the obama administrationed for restricting the rights of muslim-americans. not surprised at all to see what he said over the weekend. michael flynn is not a serious person but he's a dangerous person because so many people take him seriously including the former and potentially future president of the united states and wasn't long ago michael flynn was in the oval office giving advice to the president about how to overturn the election, so whenever something like this is said, we have to take it seriously, and people of good faith, of all faiths have to speak up against it and say it's un-american. >> listening to this one might say why is he doing this and when you look at the motive for it, it seems that it may be because in qanon circles where he is courted a lot of folks, they kind of turned on him and suggested that he was a satanist and here he is trying to prove no. does that matter at all in what he's saying? >> well, no, it doesn't matter. michael flynn is a former general, former national security a

in the obama administration, before that assertion of executive privilege, eric holder testified multiple times before several committees in congress. the justice department turned over thousands of pages of documents. and then they withheld a smaller set of documents over which the department asserted privilege. steve bannon did none of that, as the indictment made clear. not only was he not a member of the administration at the time, he didn't come and say there are certain things i can testify about because they aren't plausibly covered by executive privilege, they're communications with people outside of government, and he didn't provide any documents and then say there are certain other documents i've withheld altogether. he just completely blew off the committee, which i think is why we see him indicted and his statement, more his attorney's, was completely unmoored in previous factual representations of how executive privilege works. >> chuck, it seems pretty clear that what steve bannon is trying to do here is to politicize this whole process and claim that it is a witch hunt as t

>> a lot of people who work in this building behind me, they are obama administration veterans and they know therefore it's not good enough to pass something big, but you have to go out and sell it and explain it to the americans people. that's what we're seeing this morning. they're noting this is something not just president biden promises the american people, but president trump promised and failed to deliver on. however, the getting to that 2 million jobs per month figure estimate that they want to hit here for the economy, that's going to require the second part of this agenda, the agenda that helps more women work outside the home, including universal pre-k, elder care, child care costs. here's white house chief of staff ron klain earlier on "meet the press." >> i understand that voters are tired, americans are tired of how long it's taken to get the economy moving, to get covid under control. i think that frustration wears on people. but i think what the american people are going to see is we have put in place the strategies, the actions to turn that around. they are in a show-me

i remember in 2009, the first year of the obama administration, hearing those same arguments.blem with what jason said is the reality of the world we live in. right? we have 50 democratic senators. so to get anything done almost assuredly requires the tie-breaking vote of the vice president. and that's before we even delve into the idea that in reality you need 60 votes. so while i appreciate it, the passion behind it, i don't think the statement honestly lives where we currently live in our government and in governing this country. i understand that frustration, and i think, you know, if you look at something like build back better i think the process of this has far overwhelmed the substance of it. i can imagine if we'd have started at 2 trillion and were whittling this down to 1.75 or 1.5 trillion, people might think this is a huge victory rather than starting at 6 trillion or 3 1/2 trillion and then 2 trillion. and so i think it's just -- it's a hard message when you're governing the country to have a little patience. i do think we're on the cusp as you mentioned of passin

we understand the way to open the taliban that predated, tell us how the obama administration killing but modern ending the fighting in afghanistan and negotiation established during the obama administration. >> you are right, obama approved the search of troops other than u.s. troops so it was in december of 2009 is hr laid out. he did that at west point. the next month inside the white house what we consider possible for mother or rumors and possibility the taliban might want to talk to the united states that process developed 2010 and by november 2010, administration officials authorized by president obama in the head of the political office based in cutter and germany assisted by german intelligence so parallel to the troops surge, there wasn't to explore, there was nothing certain about this or even likely about this but in terms of success for the conservative effort consummate and bring into alignment military and vertical dimensions with the killing of bin laden in 2011 followed a couple of months later and at the beginning of the search itself and they began to taper off in t

they won't accept that. >> one of the things the biden administration is doing is working to the u.n. to roll back or reversing some of the obamanistrations sanctions. one of them as i understand allows iranian diplomats more access to the united states. is that the right move? >> in. and keep in mind that access was restricted under the trump administration because the iranian regime right now, gillian, as we speak, are holding americans hostage. literally chained to the floor of their notorious prison in tehran. one of the prisoners was supposed to be released as part of the i ran deal and the iranians reneged on that and the poor man has been the last six years. trump said if you're going to do that to our people, we're not going to let your diplomats run an and enjoy our universities and have free access across the united states. now again, we're back to instead of maximum pressure, let's call it maximum concessions. the biden administration is desperately trying to find things that they can give away. again, you know, practically begging the iranians to come back to the table. >> what would happen if negotiations wholesale

plus go back to your book quote during the obama administration the fbi issued off three to the media to advance gun control agenda. to what are you referring? >> guest: i was working in the department of justice up until january of this year it's really disappointing to see the problems with the fbi crime data and their unwillingness to look at the six errors that are there per the case were talking about they put together an annual report that has come out on what they call a dif shooting cases where guns are fired in public and nobody may be shot and they put out a report, their first report a month before the november 2014 election where they got massive national news coverage in every national news outlet a story about how active shooting cases have increased dramatically from 2000 through 2013. one of the many problems with the report was how they gathered the cases that they had. they used something called google news searches rather than what people may know as computer databases. the problem is when you google news searches cases have the fallout over time but if you are talk

that was want what was announced by the obama administration, but that's what the coyotes told people. we have had an enormous surge that has not stopped during the biden administration from individuals that have been told who knows what, when there is an announcement that individuals can be paid up to $450,000 if they were separated from the border. do you have reports yet of kay on theys using that kind of information? there's leaked information that there could be pages from the federal government to individuals that were illegally crossing in the last four years of $450,000. the biden administration has argued with that number. they have not denied that approximately see. policy. you wouldn't know, but are you getting that saying if you come now and you're separated you may get a payment? >> no, sir, we have not received any type of intelligence in that, specific to that. >> terrific. i hope we never do, but i know we will see incentives. i thank you for the additional time. >> that's fine. thank you, senator langford and thank you to our witness e with that we've reached the end

turning to iran, perhaps more than anything else, first and foremost this administration wants to return to the catastrophic obama-biden iran nuclear deal. and the dismantle meaningful sanctions against the theocratic regime in iran. from the earliest hours of the administration, the effort began to do exactly that. as part of that push, the administration is quietly and sometimes secretly reduced pressure on iran and released frozen iranian funds. but the ayatollah wants to see just how much he can get. and he may not think that president biden will ever do anything meaningful. if the u.s. isn't going to impose pressure on iran, there's no reason for the ayatollah to return to the deal at all. he doesn't need to take yes for an answer for a deal because he's getting everything anyway. and so since the very early in the administration, the biden-harris officials have contemplated what has been called a, quote, less for less agreement in which they would reduce some pressure on iran for something less than full compliance. you'll only nuke some of us. once again, madam president, we only know about the existence o
