ANALYSIS – In what should be one of the biggest bombshell stories of the year, recent reporting has uncovered that the Iranian terror regime successfully infiltrated both the Obama-Biden and Biden-Harris administrations at very high levels.
This is a very big deal.
One of those key U.S. officials likely compromised by Iran include Robert Malley, the Biden administration’s discredited special envoy on Iran. He was placed on leave in June following the suspension of his security clearance.
Malley led Obama’s effort to reach a nuclear deal with Iran, the horrible Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), signed in July 2015 without Senate ratification.
“Malley’s suspicious interactions with his aides of Iranian descent contributed to his downfall,” the Tehran Times wrote in a recent column. While the State Department has declined to comment on why Malley was suspended, the FBI is also investigating him, suggesting actions more serious than just mishandling of classified information.
And at least one of these potential Iranian agents is shockingly still operating in a critical position in the Biden Pentagon.
In addition to better understanding Barack Obama and Joe Biden’s obsession with having a nuke deal with Iran at any cost, this new intelligence also provides more background for Obama’s 2015 cash payoff of hundreds of millions of dollars to Iran, and Joe Biden’s similar ransom payment of $6 billion just a few weeks ago.
According to a report by Semafor, a highly credible new global news outlet, Tehran began its influence operation in early 2014, focused primarily on protecting its ongoing nuclear weapons program.
The Iranian effort was primarily geared toward aggressively promoting a nuclear deal between Tehran and Washington, eventually finalized in mid-2015.
As Semafor noted: “Iranian Foreign Ministry officials initiated a quiet effort to bolster Tehran’s image and positions on global security issues — particularly its nuclear program — by building ties with a network of influential overseas academics and researchers.”
“They called it the Iran Experts Initiative [IEI].”
Semafor continued:
The scope and scale of the IEI project has emerged in a large cache of Iranian government correspondence and emails reported for the first time by Semafor and Iran International. The officials… congratulated themselves on the impact of the initiative. At least three of the people on the Foreign Ministry’s list were, or became, top aides to Robert Malley, the Biden administration’s special envoy on Iran, who was placed on leave this June following the suspension of his security clearance.
Ariane Tabatabai was one of the three who agreed to be the core group of the IEI.
A first generation Iranian American whose Iran-based father is a university professor close to former Iranian president Hassan Rouhani, Tabatabai ended up as a diplomat on Malley’s Iran nuclear negotiating team after Biden took office in 2021.
But what is even worse, Tabatabai currently serves in the Pentagon as the chief of staff for the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations, a highly sensitive position that requires a top Pentagon security clearance.
Tabatabai, according to these emails, checked in with Iran’s Foreign Ministry before attending policy events, asking for advice and guidance.
In the weeks leading up to Obama’s signing off on the Iran nuke deal, Iranian officials were also bragging internally on how Tabatabai published several articles, including in Foreign Policy, along with interviews to the Huffington Post and Iran’s Fars News agency, which is linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), generally supporting Tehran’s talking nuclear talking points.
Meanwhile, Team Biden is doubling down on keeping this likely IRCG asset in the office for the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations. As Semafor concluded:
Both the State Department and Pentagon declined to comment on the substance of the correspondence related to the IEI, but said they support Ariane Tabatabai and the vetting process involved in the approval of her security clearance. “Dr. Tabatabai was thoroughly and properly vetted as a condition of her employment with the Department of Defense. We are honored to have her serve,” the Pentagon said in a statement.
What a dangerous crock of nonsense. But wait, there’s more!
According to the Washington Free Beacon, in addition to all this, “Iran has repeatedly demonstrated in the past several months that it has access ‘to restricted U.S. State Department emails or government servers,’ according to a letter sent Wednesday to the White House by congressional Republicans…”
The Free Beacon continues:
The series of leaks, which have appeared in Iranian state-controlled propaganda outlets, “constitute a significant security breach of U.S. government property by a foreign adversary” and could indicate there is a mole inside the Biden administration, according to Reps. Kevin Hern (R., Okla.) and Joe Wilson (R., S.C.) and Sen. Bill Hagerty (R., Tenn.). The probe is being handled by the Republican Study Committee, Congress’s largest Republican caucus, and could force the Biden administration into admitting Iran has breached sensitive U.S. networks.
It’s time for congressional Republicans to close ranks, end their chaos, and force Biden to clean house and remove any, and all, Iranian agents, or sympathizers, in his administration.
And they need to do all this very publicly.

Obama And Biden White Houses Impacted By Undue Influences: Report
