  • Mark Levin Goes Off on GOP Senator Defending Trump’s Deal: ‘Should Never Be ...
    AP Photo/Alex Brandon Fox News host Mark Levin went scorched earth on Republican Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) on Thursday, following Marshall’s much-maligned appearance on CNN the night before. “The insanity of those defending parts of the MOU, or major matters left out of this MOU, is truly stunning,” Levin wrote on X, adding: Roger Marshall is a senator from Kansas. He argues that the Iranian terror regime, which has killed and maimed thousands of Americans, funded terrorism around the world, and tried to assassinate our president and his daughter Ivanka, needs ballistic missiles “to be able to defend themselves.” This man should never be elected dogcatcher. “I will add that the fact that ballistic missiles are not included in this MOU is an outrage,” Levin continued, pinpointing a major surprise from Trump this week in selling his deal. “To downplay the damage these missiles do (ask the Arab countries what they think about ballistic missiles) and the significance of not including them in any deal is utterly irresponsible. Iran’s ballistic missiles have always been a major issue and, in fact, the administration talked about the regime building a circle of protection around its nuclear facilities with ballistic missiles. And, no, if other countries have ballistic missiles, Iran should not. Iran is a terrorist regime that has killed our people, how many more times do we need to be reminded of this?” Levin concluded. Marshall joined CNN’s Kaitlan Collins the night before and was asked about Iran retaining its ballistic missile program, which Trump argued is only fair, as other countries also have missiles. Collins asked Marshall, “Are you okay with Iran having missiles?” Marshall replied by arguing, “I prefer that they not, but they have to defend themselves,” while making clear that Iran retaining long-distance missiles is a threat to the U.S. “You think Iran needs to be able to defend itself?” Collins followed up, as Marshall doubled down, saying Iran needs to be able to “defend themselves” and added, “otherwise we turn this into a forever war.” Marshall found critics across the political spectrum with his comments. Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) shared a viral clip of Marshall’s remarks and added, “3 minutes ago these guys were telling us Iran’s missiles were an existential threat to America and cheerleading an insane, illegal, and destined-to-fail war to get rid of all their missiles.” 3 minutes ago these guys were… [TheTopNews] Read More.

  • ‘That’s Not True!’ Fox’s Maria Bartiromo Spars With Ro Khanna Over Trump...
    Fox Business Network’s Maria Bartiromo pounced on Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) Thursday for criticizing President Donald Trump’s “America First” record and arguing that his Iran deal will take hundreds of billions of dollars away from Americans who need it most. Bartiromo began by accusing Khanna and Democrats of wanting to “upend this president’s agenda.” “Is that what is happening right now with this MOU with Iran?” Bartiromo asked about the Memorandum of Understanding. “No. I actually support the agreement and bringing the war to an end. I have always supported bringing the war to an end,” Khanna said. “I will say, though, that this agreement is not as good as what the JCPOA was,” he said of former President Barack Obama’s deal. “Most problematically, we’re going to be on the hook to raise $300 billion for Iran’s economic development and reconstruction. Not U.S. taxpayer money, but raising that money. Why aren’t we focused on the economic development and the reconstruction of Middleton, Ohio, or Johnstown, Pennsylvania, or putting $300 billion to be raised for childcare or healthcare for Americans?” Khanna asked. “All very important points, and good ones,” Bartiromo conceded before defending Trump. “In terms of your point, in terms of rebuilding America and Ohio, and all the middle-American states, I mean, that’s exactly what President Trump is doing. You know that!” Bartiromo exclaimed. “He boasts about $18 trillion investment into America. He got corporate America to either pay up on tariffs or build it at home. He’s the first president that actually focused on not relying on China when it comes to pharmaceuticals and semiconductors. So, you know that.” “And I gotta say,” she continued. “This deal seems a lot better than the horrendous Obama deal because Obama allowed Iran to have access to $100-plus billion. Let’s not forget all that cash — cold cash — on a plane headed to Iran. Which, what did they do with that money, congressman? They used that money to build up their ballistic weapons and support terrorist proxies. Am I wrong?” Bartiromo asked. “Maria, first of all, the president has lost 72,000 manufacturing jobs under his watch. So, I wish you were right because his rhetoric was about rebuilding Ohio, rebuilding Pennsylvania, but he has resisted having an industrial investment bank to actually support American manufacturers that would make things that were currently —” “No, I don’t agree with that!… [TheTopNews] Read More.

  • ‘Big’ Trump Fan Batya Destroys Iran Deal on CNN: ‘A Total Disaster! Really...
    NewsNation host and self-described “big fan” of Trump Batya Ungar-Sargon absolutely shredded President Donald Trump’s Iran deal, calling it a “total disaster.” Hours after the text of the deal was released, Trump signed the Iran memorandum of understanding at the Palace of Versailles during a dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron. The 14-point plan was met with derision from across the political and ideological spectrum. On Thursday’s edition of CNN News Central, anchor John Berman hosted Ungar-Sargon to talk about the deal, and despite still professing to be a “big fan,” the host trashed the memo thoroughly: JOHN BERMAN: You wrote, “The greatest superpower to ever exist, brought to its knees by a few minds, just a disaster for America.”. Expand on that. Why? NEWSNATION HOST BATYA UNGAR-SARGON: Thank you so much for having me, John. It’s always great to be with you. Look, it gives me obviously no pleasure to say this, but I think this deal is a total disaster! I agree with a lot of the people you’ve been quoting at the top of the show and also last hour. Iran has come out of this stronger than it was before. It’s getting $300 billion in sanctions relief. It also, in the MOU, it states that it commits not to charge tolls through the Strait of Hormuz for 60 days, John, meaning it has suddenly occurred to them that they can start doing that. They realized that it didn’t matter that we had complete military superiority and total military victory over them. If they could plant a few mines in that strait, they could bring the greatest superpower to ever exist in human history to its knees. And that is just such a disaster! I mean, what message do you think that signals to China right now? It’s really, really horrifying! And I’m very surprised that this administration would go down this road. JOHN BERMAN: So you woke up no doubt to see what the president wrote about some of his critics. I imagine you included. He said you are “jealous bad people” and stupid. That’s what he says of his critiques this morning. What would have happened imagine a world where a Democratic president? Signed this memorandum of understanding. What would the criticism have been? NEWSNATION HOST BATYA UNGAR-SARGON: I mean, you know the answer to that, right? There’s no Republican who, if a Democrat had signed… [TheTopNews] Read More.

  • iHeartMedia Brings AudioGraph Measuring to the Market
    iHeartMedia has announced a new tool that the media company is billing as the first to allow precise digital measurement of its broadcast audience. AudioGraph was created by Triton Digital as a “common identity solution” for radio stations. iHeartMedia cited 64 percent of audio consumption coming from broadcast radio, but the medium has always lacked “the targeting and measurement infrastructure available in digital.” It will launch with iHeartMedia inventory, and the companies plan to expand it across the broader industry in 2027. “There are more people listening today than 10 or 20 years ago, and that trust is something no technology can manufacture,” iHeartMedia Chairman and CEO Bob Pittman said in a release. He added that AudioGraph lets advertisers harness “trust and unparalleled reach” with precision. With AudioGraph, the company said advertisers can measure audiences for the first time using what it described as privacy-safe, ID-informed insights. Connectivity through demand-side platforms, or DSP, the release said, means that AudioGraph is compatible with other digital measurement platforms, in turn supporting the measurement or analytics partners that advertisers might already use. AudioGraph uses audience segments built from first-party listener data and TransUnion’s identity graph. The segments, in turn, inform advertising campaign planning using AudioGraph IDs, while “advanced predictive listening models” allow advertisers to reach audiences with greater accuracy, the company said. The company said campaigns using AudioGraph IDs can deliver a KPI outcome 75 percent higher than traditional demo-based plans. iHeartMedia has tested the solution with partners such as Magellan AI, PlaceIQ and GroundTruth, measuring audio listening to foot traffic and visits for a national home improvement brand. Magellan AI, which offers audio advertising intelligence and measurement services, expanded its relationship with iHeartMedia back in May, in an agreement that “brings broadcast radio attribution to advertisers.” The capabilities also extend to streaming and podcast environments, iHeartMedia said, which would allow advertisers to gauge their effectiveness across all of its inventory.  [Do you receive the Radio World SmartBrief newsletter each weekday morning?

  • Marjorie Taylor Greene Reveals Trump’s Ice Cold Response to Death Threats Agai...
    Screenshot via Mario Nawfal X Marjorie Taylor Greene claimed President Donald Trump had an ice cold response when she reached out over concerns about death threats she and her family were receiving. Greene told her tale about Trump on Mario Nawfal’s podcast and Stephen A. Smith’s Straight Shooter show this week. The former congresswoman left Congress at the beginning of the year, saying she wanted to avoid a “hateful primary” challenged boosted by the president and his team. While once one of his most vocal supporters in Congress, Greene has since turned into a vocal critic, breaking with the president on the Epstein files, the Iran war, and more. Greene told Nawfal she was receiving death threats when she signed her name to a discharge petition calling for the release of files related to the case of convicted child sex predator Jeffrey Epstein. The threats, she added, would often use language Trump deployed against her, like calling her a “traitor.” "It's your fault and you deserve it"… What Trump texted Marjorie Taylor Greene about her son's death threats. MTG was leading the fight to force the Epstein files into the open. What she says it cost her is hard to stomach. The threats started against her, then… https://t.co/RmsPR9QASS pic.twitter.com/lMNlcilI3G — Mario Nawfal (@MarioNawfal) June 18, 2026 According to Greene, she reached out to multiple White House officials and Trump about the death threats and the president hit with her an ice cold response. She explained: So it was after he started calling me a traitor because I wouldn’t take my name off the discharge petition and I was fighting him specifically to get the Epstein files released and I was receiving serious death threats, but we started getting death threats on my son that were coming from overseas and these were credible death threats and I sent a copy of the death threats, I sent it to Susie Wiles, James Blair, Kash Patel, JD Vance, and I texted a copy of it to President Trump and informed him, this is what you are causing to happen because you’re calling me a traitor, because the word traitor was in the death threat. And I said, no matter what our political disagreements are, our children should never have their lives threatened or be threatened in any way. And that’s what I told him. And he specifically told me… [TheTopNews] Read More.

  • Trump Offers Simple Message to Critics Amid Iran Deal Uproar: ‘YOU’RE WELCOM...
    (Vadim Ghirda/AP photo) President Donald Trump has a message for the critics of his 14-point memorandum of understanding to achieve peace in Iran. Taking to Truth Social on Thursday morning, the president unleashed an all-caps tirade summing up his view of the state of the union after he signed the deal at the Palace of Versailles in France the day before: OIL IS FLOWING, IRAN CAN NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON (THE WORLD WILL BE SAFE!), THE STOCK MARKETS ARE ROARING, JOBS ARE AT RECORDS, AND PRICES ARE DROPPING (AFFORDABILITY!). OUR COUNTRY IS STRONG, SAFE, AND RESPECTED LIKE NEVER BEFORE. “YOU’RE WELCOME!” President DJT The Truth post was seemingly a clapback to critics of the deal, which has been widely panned across the political spectrum, including on Trump’s favorite TV network, Fox News. On Thursday morning, the hosts of Fox & Friends opened the show with a heap of skepticism about the agreement, which Trump signed in Versailles, France, the day before. “There’s a lot we don’t understand,” co-host Brian Kilmeade said. “Why would they do this?” colleague Ainsley Earhardt asked, referring to the $300 billion fund established under the agreement. Meanwhile, Life, Liberty and Levin host Mark Levin called it “unthinkable” and Sunday Night in America with Trey Gowdy host Trey Gowdy said the deal will make Iran “richer.”The post Trump Offers Simple Message to Critics Amid Iran Deal Uproar: ‘YOU’RE WELCOME!’ first appeared on Mediaite.
