This expansion of Iranian defenses complicates potential future operations for U.S. forces. America-first, national security concerns, and household energy prices are all at play here. The U.S. Senate is advancing sanctions legislation targeting countries purchasing Russian and Iranian oil. The bill includes potential 100 percent tariffs on top buyers like India and China. America-first, household energy prices, and national security concerns are all at stake here. That's the day from where we sit — thanks for spending part of it with us.
