AP Photo/Evan Vucci Trump administration officials on Monday asked their Israeli counterparts not to continue bombing Iran’s energy infrastructure, Axios reported on Tuesday. It is the latest indication that the U.S. and Israel have different aims in the war they jointly started 10 days ago. The U.S. request comes after Israel bombed Iranian oil facilities that created clouds of black smoke above Tehran. The Axios report cited three sources familiar with the situation. It said the Trump administration pointed to three reasons why it does not want Israel to continue its attacks on Iran’s energy industry: The Trump administration cited three reasons for its request, according to a source with knowledge of the matter: Such strikes harm the Iranian public, a large portion of which opposes the regime. Trump aims to cooperate with Iran’s oil sector after the war — similar to the approach he has taken with Venezuela. The strikes could trigger massive Iranian retaliatory attacks on energy infrastructure across Gulf states. Hours later, The Wall Street Journal reported that even though President Donald Trump has claimed the war is just about over, “Israel has other ideas.” “There is some concern among White House officials that Israel wants the war to last after the U.S. expresses its desire to end the bombing campaign, the officials said,” the Journal said on Tuesday. “U.S. and Israeli officials say the Israeli message is it will stop its campaign in Iran whenever U.S. involvement stops.” The Journal noted that U.S. strikes have largely targeted the Iranian military, while Israel’s bombings have homed in on Iranian leaders and its energy facilities. Over the years, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly urged the U.S. to act against Iran. More than 1,000 Iranians have been killed in the bombings, including Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and dozens of top officials. An elementary school was hit in southern Iran, killing at least 175 people, mostly children. Trump administration officials reportedly believe the U.S. was responsible, though so far the president denies it. Seven Americans have been killed by Iranian retaliatory strikes.The post Trump Administration Reportedly Asks Israel To Stop Bombing Iran’s Oil Facilities first appeared on Mediaite.

Senator Roger Marshall (R-KS) insisted to CNN’s Kaitlan Collins that his previous statement about Iran’s nuclear missile program was incorrect, stating, “I was wrong.” Marshall joined Tuesday’s edition of The Source to discuss the U.S.’s ongoing operation in Iran and President Donald Trump’s justifications for the war. Collins confronted the senator with a clip of an appearance of his on Fox News in June of 2025, where he claimed that Trump’s Operation “Midnight Hammer” had destroyed Iranian nuclear operations for years to come. Read their exchange below: COLLINS: We’ve now learned that 140 service members have been wounded. And as you look at that, I think some people ask, why is this happening? Why, why are we at war with Iran right now? And I want something you said last summer, I just want to remember that about the strikes that took place in Iran in June. (BEGIN VIDEO CLIP) MARSHALL: I think it will take them years to restart their nuclear program. I think that they can’t control their airspace; they don’t have the will to do it. From what I’ve seen, I’m in shock and awe. You know, it’s just, it’s shocking how much damage we did to their facilities. (END VIDEO CLIP) COLLINS: You said there that you thought it could be years before they could restart their nuclear program. Did you see intelligence that changed your mind now, on that? MARSHALL: Look, I was wrong. They were restarting their nuclear program. That’s what– that’s the reports out of the White House that they were actually starting their nuclear program, but I think it goes way beyond this, and you’re absolutely right, there is a cost to war. And I mourn the loss of those seven soldiers with all my heart and pray for those families and the 140 that are injured. Eight of them are serious. Absolutely, I take that to heart. I hate war, once again. But I think you think back to the Iranians killed 241 Marines. I’d been in medical school then. Before that, they kidnapped and held hostage 60 some Americans for 444 days. Over the past several years, 160 attacks by Iranians on American forces as well. There is a price to pay for freedom, unfortunately. And I appreciate soldiers being willing to do that. COLLINS: Okay, so your view did change from last summer? I mean, we were told that it… [TheTopNews] Read More.6 hours ago - James Comer Says Trump DOJ Asked New Mexico Officials to End Jeffrey Epstein Inv...Rep. James Comer (R-KY) said President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice asked New Mexico investigators to shut down a 2019 probe into a ranch owned by convicted child sex predator Jeffrey Epstein. Comer joined Fox News’s Jesse Watters on Tuesday evening after New Mexico authorities searched a ranch in the state once owned by Epstein. Victims of Epstein have said they were trafficked at the ranch. This is the second time the property has been investigated. The property was being probed in 2019, but federal investigators reportedly took over and shut things down. Epstein died of an apparent suicide in 2019 while incarcerated awaiting sex trafficking charges. Comer, who chairs the House Oversight Committee, said on Tuesday: The federal government asked New Mexico to stop their investigation, I believe, back in 2019 of that ranch. So there’s just so many questions about how the government failed, the victims and how government failed in trying to prosecute Epstein sooner. I mean, this whole thing doesn’t make sense. Everyone has conspiracy theories on how Epstein was able to get away with it. Was it because he had powerful friends? Was it because he was an agent? We don’t know, but we’re gonna find out and I’m glad that they’re on the ground now in New Mexico searching that property. “Congressman, you said in 2019 the government told New Mexico authorities to stand down in investigating the ranch,” Watters replied. “Do you know what branch of the government?” Comer responded: It was the Department of Justice, I believe. And I believe it was because they had– I believe, it perhaps was Southern District of New York because they had taken over the investigation at that point. So, again these are questions that we have. We want to get the answers. Watch above via Fox News.The post James Comer Says Trump DOJ Asked New Mexico Officials to End Jeffrey Epstein Investigation first appeared on Mediaite.

- Josh Hawley Says ‘It’s Time To Declare Victory’ and End Iran WarSen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) told Fox News host Jesse Watters on Tuesday that the U.S. military operation in Iran has achieved all of President Donald Trump’s goals, claiming the time had come to “declare victory.” Hawley joined Jesse Watters Primetime to discuss the U.S. and Israel’s ongoing campaign in Iran. Watters asked the senator about Sen. Mark Kelly’s (D-AZ) remark that the war was “not going well” for the Trump administration, a point which Hawley vehemently disagreed with. “If you look at our overriding priority here, which is to deny nukes to these crazy people, how can you look at what’s happened in the last year?” said Hawley. He continued: I mean, you had Trump taking out the nukes back in June. Now you’ve had the last ten days. Does anybody really think these people are ever gonna try to make a nuke again? What would they make it with, like charcoal? This is an overriding success. Our military is astounding the world, and I agree with what the president said last night. You look at all the success we’ve had in the last ten days. I mean, this thing is a victory. I think we should be hailing our military as the heroes they are. We ought to be thanking them for their service, and we ought to be saying we’ve achieved our objectives here big time. When asked by the host if Hawley believed that Trump would look to end the operation or continue it, the senator claimed there was little left to do in Iran. “I think that he’s achieved his objectives the way he’s laid them out. You just put it beautifully, Jesse. What is there really that’s left to do that we haven’t already done?” he said. He continued: We have demonstrated to the world and anybody who’s watching, by the way, that we have overwhelming military superiority, and we know how to use it. We have totally destroyed forever their nuclear program. We have destroyed the ballistic missiles. We have destroyed their Navy. This has been a total success in whatever it’s been, 11 days. I thought the president’s remarks last night that he could declare victory today, and it would be a 100% victory, I think is true. I think we ought to say to our heroes, thank you for a job well done. This has been absolutely amazing. It’s been astounding, historic. Now it’s time… [TheTopNews] Read More.7 hours ago
- Republican Senator Apologizes for Iran School Strike as Trump Blames Enemy: ‘I...While President Donald Trump blames Iran for bombing its own school, which led to more than 175 deaths, Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) has a different idea, offering an apology on CNN. On Tuesday’s The Arena, Kasie Hunt asked Kennedy about speaking up the day before about the potential of the U.S. being behind a bombing that killed 175 people. A newly released video pointed blame towards an American missile this week for the strike. Trump has maintained that Iran is to blame. “You actually talked to NBC News last night about that strike on the girls’ school and you said it was terrible. We made a mistake. I’m just so sorry that it happened. Why did you feel like it was important to say that?” Hunt asked Kennedy. Kennedy admitted the ultimate investigation may prove him wrong, but he believes a U.S. strike was behind the school incident. He stressed, however, that it wasn’t intentional as that is “the sort of thing Russia does.” “I mean, we’re investigating, but I’m not going to hide behind that. I think that it was a terrible, terrible mistake,” he said. The senator explained: I think it’s the truth. I mean, we’re investigating, but I’m not going to hide behind that. I think that it was a terrible, terrible mistake. The investigation may prove me wrong, I hope so. The kids are still dead. But I think was a horrible, horrible mistake. I wish it hadn’t happened. I’m sorry it happened. I can assure you it wasn’t intentional. That’s the sort of thing Russia does. We don’t do that. You know, I don’t see any other possible explanation. And when you make a mistake, you ought to admit it. Most people understand no one’s perfect, but I don’t think our men and women who are fighting for us did it intentionally. I’ll never believe that.
