State Department says Iran NEVER SIGNED nuclear deal and it's not 'legally binding' as it tells Congress to butt out of Obama's 'political commitments'

"The Obama administration has disclosed to Congress that this summer's controversial nuclear arms agreement with Iran was never signed and is not legally binding, according to a new report this week.

The State Department made the disclosures in a letter to Kansas congressman Mike Pompeo, a Republican, who had written the department to inquire why the agreement as submitted to Congress in July did not bear the signature of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani.

'The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) is not a treaty or an executive agreement, and is not a signed document,' Julia Frifield, an assistant secretary for legislative affairs wrote Pompeo last Thursday.

An Omnibus Climate And Energy Roundup

The Truth About Karl Marx

This is the second of two videos about Marx the person. We know about his philosophy but what do we know about the man himself?

My take is Marx seemed to like to tell everyone how to live their lives but was an abject failure and a financial parasite to everyone around him. Sounds like his rhetoric was about someone who felt the world owed HIM a living and nothing more.

Language warning both videos, but recommended if you have time.
