Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) shared a few predictions during an interview on Face the Nation on Sunday — including his belief that President Donald Trump will “obliterate” Iran if it dares contest American control of the Strait of Hormuz. Graham told host Margaret Brennan that would happen after a few other predictions play out. The conservative senator started off by saying he felt the Memorandum of Understanding between the U.S. and Iran was “problematic,” but that he believed diplomacy was worth a shot. “Let’s try a diplomatic solution,” Graham said, “[but] I think it’s going to fail.” He then asked “What happens next?” Graham answered his own question by saying that he believes that Trump will “take the Strait of Hormuz over by force.” The U.S. “will control the Strait of Hormuz, we’ll charge a fee for all those who go through to pay for the operation, and we’re going to expand the Abraham Accords” to include Saudi Arabia by the end of 2026, Graham continued. “And if Iran contests control of the Strait of Hormuz by the United States, we will obliterate them,” Graham added. His interview comes after Graham has been one of Trump’s biggest supporters when it comes to the Iran war. A month before Operation Epic Fury started, Graham urged Trump to kill Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei — and also got Trump to sign his Make Iran Great Again baseball cap. Graham’s interview also coincided with Vice President JD Vance heading to Switzerland in an attempt to hammer out a peace deal with Iran on Sunday. Trump told Fox News earlier in the day that if Iranian leaders shuts down the Strait of Hormuz, they will pay for it with their lives. “You close it, and you won’t have a country,” Trump told Iranian leaders by phone, according to correspondent Trey Yingst. “You won’t even make it back to your f*cking country.” Watch above via CBS.The post Lindsey Graham Predicts Trump Will ‘Obliterate’ Iran If Strait of Hormuz Is Messed With first appeared on Mediaite.

(Photos: Jacquelyn Martin and Mark Lennihan) President Donald Trump went off on the “corrupt and unethical cowards” at The New York Times on Sunday after reading a story from the paper that said the Iran war had failed to eliminate the threat coming from the country’s theocratic regime. The president said the story by reporter Neil MacFarquhar — titled “What Changed After Almost Four Months of War? Analysts Say Not Much” — was dead wrong. Trump posted: The headline in the Corrupt and Failing New York Times: “What Changed After Almost 4 Months of War? Analysts Say Not Much.” REALLY? Their Military is DONE, their Navy is GONE, their Air Force is GONE, their Launching Pads, Missiles, Drones and Manufacturing of same, is almost GONE, their top two sets of Leaders are GONE, their Inflation is at 250%, their Economy is BROKEN, their Soldiers aren’t being paid, the Hormuz Strait is OPEN, THE OIL IS GUSHING, and the U.S. Stock Market and Jobs are at record HIGHS. That’s what’s CHANGED, you corrupt and unethical cowards, and MORE!!! President DJT The president’s post came a few hours after MacFarquhar’s story published. He wrote skeptics are “expressing bafflement” over what the Iran war has managed to change. “Neither the war nor the agreement ended what U.S. and Israeli officials regard as the main threats emanating from Iran. The country’s nuclear program, while heavily damaged, was not eliminated — its fate punted to future negotiation,” MacFarquhar wrote. He continued: The same goes for its ballistic missiles, which the deal does not address. Iran’s authoritarian regime endured, albeit with new leaders. Its proxies remain a threat to the region. Israel and Hezbollah, the Iran-backed militia in Lebanon, persisted in attacking each other. By Saturday, even the most significant immediate result of the deal — Iran’s reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, which Mr. Trump had identified as essential — seemed at risk. Iran’s military said it was closing the waterway again, because the United States had failed to stop the fighting in Lebanon. The U.S. military contested that, saying the strait remained open as the agreement stipulated. A rep for The Times did not immediately respond to Mediaite’s request for comment. The NYT story — and Trump’s response — coincided with Vice President JD Vance heading to Switzerland in an attempt to hammer out a peace deal with Iran.

Associated Press President Donald Trump claimed Sunday that he personally inspected the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool’s condition as U.S. Park Service crews continued to try to clean up the ever-expanding algae blooms. But instead of blaming the algae itself, or the massive amounts of hydrogen peroxide that most likely caused the blue coating to start peeling, Trump again blamed vandals. Trump returned to the White House Sunday from Camp David, where he spent the night for undisclosed purposes. White House reporters did not record a visit by the president to the reflecting pool. “Work will begin immediately on fixing the seriously vandalized Reflecting Pool,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “I just inspected it, and could only say to myself, and those gathered around me, WOW, who would do such a thing? SICK, DERANGED PEOPLE! We will fix it? [sic] President DJT.” The century-old reflecting pool began turning a vile shade of pea-green just days after crews completed coating the bottom with blue sealant and pumped in clean water. Crews dumped gallons of hydrogen peroxide into the pool in an attempt to kill the algae, but the blue bottom began peeling off in sheets, instead — even though Trump claimed his $14+ million renovation would last for 40 to 50 years. As more and more journalists and influencers reported on the slimy mess, and some tourists took pieces of the peeling sealant as souvenirs, Trump blamed the entire situation on “vandalism.” According to The New York Times, however, vandalism had little to do with the problem. The paper reported in May that Trump’s project ignored a “major underlying problem” with old, leaky pipes that needed to replaced, lest they allow algae to proliferate in the D.C. sun. But just yesterday, authorities arrested a 47-year-old former Olympian and charged him with “destruction of government property.” The Bethesda man, David Hearn, had paused his bike ride to take a look at reflecting pool situation and said he dipped his hand in the pool to experience what the detached blue liner “felt like” for himself. “I reached in there, and I was able to grab the end of that flapping piece, the already peeling piece,” Hearn said in an interview with The Washington Post. “It was still attached to the bottom. I didn’t remove anything.” Regardless, Hearn was cuffed, charged, and given a notice to appear in court in July. Trump, meanwhile, threatened “Years… [TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago - Joda Media Launches WeatherCenter.ai

(Photo via @PamelaGeller on X) It may have looked awkward, but the White House says it wasn’t. The Trump administration denied social media claims that Vice President JD Vance was snubbed by Qatari representatives during the big peace deal summit he is having with Iranian leaders in Switzerland on Sunday. That was in response to an X clip posted earlier in the day by Pamela Geller that showed Vance standing and smiling while leaders next to him hugged and kissed — while seemingly ignoring the vice president. Vance then looked a bit annoyed as the leaders lined up next to him. “Watch Qatar snub Vance,” Geller posted. ” So embarrassing.” Her clip racked up 2.1 million views on X and was shared by thousands of accounts. But a U.S. official told The Daily Wire correspondent Mary Margaret Olohan that framing was “complete nonsense.” The official told Olohan, “The U.S. delegation had just spent hours with the Qataris and there was no need to re-greet someone having just spent hours with. The decision to give statements together before meeting was done impromptu, which is why it wasn’t a staged greeting.” A U.S. official tells @realDailyWire that this supposed snub is “complete nonsense.” “The U.S. delegation had just spent hours with the Qataris and there was no need to re-greet someone having just spent hours with,” the official says. “The decision to give statements together… https://t.co/y81qMs7wQK — Mary Margaret Olohan (@MaryMargOlohan) June 21, 2026 That response comes as Vance has been working to hammer out a deal with reps from Iran’s theocratic regime and other countries. “I’m looking forward to starting the technical talks with the Iranians, the Pakistanis, and the Qataris,” Vance said on Saturday. He added, “We’re going to hopefully make progress on the nuclear issue, make progress on the Lebanon ceasefire issue — those are the two big things that I think we’re going to be focused on.” This isn’t the first time Vance has been sent to negotiate with the Iranians. He went to Pakistan in April — where he was flanked by special envoy Steve Witkoff and President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner — but no deal was reached following a marathon 21-hour negotiating session.The post Trump Admin Denies JD Vance Was Snubbed at Iran Summit After Awkward Video Hits Social Media first appeared on Mediaite. [TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago - ‘Get On a Plane and Come Back!’ Right-Wing Pundit On Newsmax Fumes Over JD V...Bryan Lieb, former executive director of Iranian Americans For Liberty, told Newsmax Sunday that the Iranians may not be taking the peace talks with Vice President JD Vance seriously. Vance met up with special envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kusher in Switzerland for high-level talks Sunday. “Listen, it’s my belief in watching just the first 20 seconds of Vice President Vance speaking, that maybe it’s time for him to get on a plane and come back home,” Lieb said. “What I think a lot of people maybe missed in the very beginning here, was the fact that the Iranians were supposed to be in the room when the vice president was speaking. And you can see visibly that when the Iranian foreign minister went up to the Pakistani president and he said, ‘Listen, we’re not going to be in the room when he’s speaking, and we don’t even know if we’re sitting down.’ And you could see the tension in the room.” Lieb continued, “I mean, this is just a game that we’re playing. You know, one moment, the Iranians are saying the Strait of Hormuz is closed. Then they’re saying it’s open. And you have President [Donald] Trump just an hour or two ago saying, ‘Open the Strait of Hormuz, watch your mouth, or I’m going to take your country over again.’ So, you know, this is par for the course, right? We’re dealing with terrorists here, and diplomacy with terrorists is very, very unpredictable.” Lieb added, “So, yeah, let’s see how this thing goes. Who even knows if the Iranians are in the room right now? We don’t know yet. So, time will tell. In a social media post Sunday, Trump wrote, “Iran must immediately stop their highly paid PROXIES in Lebanon from causing trouble. If they don’t, we’ll hit Iran very hard again, just like we did last week, only harder!!!” Meanwhile, the Strait of Hormuz remained closed, while U.S. Central Command claims it’s open for shipping.
