DEVELOPING: Iranian Regime Officials Resigning, Democrats Weep Over Unemployed Bureaucrats

Jets and missiles are reported in the air over Lebanon and Israel as the ceasefire appears over with Hezbollah... THEN the White House announces a three week ceasefire. We'll bring you the latest. Democrats go into tear-filled fits over former USAID bureaucrats who used to make six figures a year doing nothing now struggling to find jobs. Yet another Democrat sex scandal. That's the third one this month. Some of it trickles into the California gubernatorial primary debate last night. Yikes. Shootings in Louisiana and abroad as influencers glorify "some" kinds of murders.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has reportedly agreed to work with the United States on communicating with Iran regarding its nuclear program, as well as its regional proxies.

The report was confirmed by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, who stated that “Russia believes that the United States and Iran should resolve all problems through negotiations.”

Peskov added that Moscow “is ready to do everything in its power to achieve this.”

Meanwhile, President Donald Trump has relayed mixed messages about his stance on Iran, vowing to apply “maximum pressure,” while also stating that he plans on working on a “verified nuclear peace agreement with Iran.”

Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baghaei, stated that it is “natural” for countries to offer help with various issues, given the significance and the current political climate in the Middle East.

“It’s possible that many parties will show good will and readiness to help with various problems,” he stated on Monday. “From this perspective, it’s natural that countries will present an offer of help if it’s needed.”

The talks between Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in Saudi Arabia on February 18th regarding the Ukraine war also reportedly included conversations surrounding Moscow potentially facilitating talks between the U.S. and Iran.

However, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei stated in February that President Trump cannot be trusted following the withdrawal of the nuclear agreement between the U.S. and Iran, signed by former President Barack Obama.

The Obama-era deal curbed Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for the lifting of economic sanctions placed on Iran.

Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, Russia has strengthened its ties with Iran, signing a strategic cooperation treaty in January, signaling a long-term alignment.

MAGA Foreign Policy: The Iranian Regime | Victor Davis Hanson

For the first time in decades, the Iranian regime is defenseless. Will President Donald Trump seize on the moment and finally depose the brutal theocracy before it gets “the bomb,” or instead pursue another “maximum pressure” campaign, cutting the ayatollah off from the rest of the world? Victor Davis Hanson lays out these options and what role the MAGA worldview may play in the Trump administration’s decision-making on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “Remember that fable from our youth when the mice got together and they said, ‘The cat is picking us off one by one. We need to put a bell around his neck so we could be warned.’ And everybody said, ‘That's a great idea.’ “The next item of business among the mice assembly was, who will bell the cat? What I'm getting at is the Europeans, I think even the Chinese and Russians, don't want on their border a nuclear Iran. The Americans, the Israelis, everybody knows they should not—that theocratic regime should not get the bomb. But who bells the cat? ... “Maybe the correct stance of the incoming Trump administration is to go back to the maximum-pressure campaign of Mike Pompeo and Donald Trump and have strict sanctions on oil exports, maybe even a blockade, to put the pressure on so the people then throw the theocracy out themselves. “But on the other hand, people are going to argue, 'Wait a minute, there are no Iranian air defenses. For one of the few times in history, that regime is naked. There is no Assad. There is no Hezbollah. There is no Hamas. There is no Houthis that are capable of, as surrogates, attacking the Israeli state. “‘So, maybe you could attack Iran—just this brief window—because Israel, in a series of brilliant air responses, has destroyed its ability—Tehran's ability to defend itself.”
