US Unloads Seized Iranian Oil Amidst Bipartisan Pressure and Controversy

The US has begun unloading an oil tanker suspected of carrying Iranian oil off the coast of Texas, just days after a bipartisan group of lawmakers wrote a letter to the White House questioning the delay. The offloading was reportedly delayed due to fears of Iranian retaliation, but the Biden administration has now taken action. Lawmakers demanded answers on the delay, emphasizing that American citizens and companies should not fear retaliation for assisting in lawful law enforcement activities. While the offloading is underway, there are concerns about the long delay and the need for stronger actions to end Iranian aggression. The White House stated that the delay was not influenced by the lawmakers' letter and that offloading the tanker is a complicated process.

GOP Senators Accuse Yellen and Biden Administration of Lying About Social Security Plan.

During a Senate Finance Committee hearing on Biden's budget, Senator Bill Cassidy (R-La.) accused Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen of lying when she said that President Biden is ready to work with Congress on reforming Social Security. Cassidy argued that a bipartisan group of senators has repeatedly requested to meet with Biden about Social Security, but they have not heard anything on their request. Finance Committee Chairman Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) admonished Cassidy for breaching Senate decorum, but Cassidy later insisted that he did not call Yellen a liar.
