- Trump Rages At Iranian Leaders, Says They Kill ‘Young Kids’ Like ‘They Are...
President Donald Trump said Iran’s “very evil” leaders kill protesters “like they are candy.” Speaking to reporters from the Oval Office with Lebanese President Joseph Aboun at his side, Trump took a variety of questions, including one in which he was asked how long it could take to “stamp out” Iranian threats to full shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Trump pointed in part to the reported executions of two young men on Sunday, who were hanged for helping demonstrators in Iran earlier this year escape government violence during the country’s massive January protests. Erfan Esfandiari, 18, and Gol-Mohammad Mohammadi, 23, were among 59 men arrested during the protests earlier this year. Trump wasted no time claiming Iran’s nuclear capabilities have been decimated and pointing to the executions as justification for the American military campaign in the region: If we left right now it would take Iran 20, 25 years to rebuild. And we’re not finished at all. But if we left right now it would take them a long time. Years, years to rebuild. But we’re not leaving right now. So we have had a big impact on Iran. If we didn’t do what I did with — we got to two things. The Iran nuclear deal done by Barack Obama. I terminated that. If I didn’t terminate it you wouldn’t have Israel now because they would have had a nuclear weapon years ago. If we didn’t do the B-2 bombers knocking out the nuclear sites a year ago, one of the first things we did early in the administration, they would have a nuclear weapon. And you wouldn’t have Israel and in my opinion you wouldn’t have various other countries in the Middle East. They would all be gone. They would have been terminated, extinguished. I believe that by doing what we did, by terminating Iran, who is very evil people leading their country. You saw the number of protestors that they killed, 52,000 plus. Put a couple of them up today. Young kids. They kill them, they kill them like they are candy. It’s crazy what they do. They treat them so badly. They are just killing people at random over 52,000 people and nobody talks about it. But if I didn’t do the attack on their nuclear sites or if I didn’t terminate the Obama agreement with Iran, which was an absolute — an… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - ‘You Don’t Know Anything!’ Trump Snaps at Reporter Asking What His Plan Is...President Donald Trump went off on ABC News White House correspondent Mary Bruce during a Tuesday press conference in the Oval Office after she asked him about the Iran war, with the president saying she didn’t know “anything” about the conflict. “Mr. President, there are no signs that Iran is ready to stop fighting, so what is the plan? Is the plan to just keep fighting until they give up?” Bruce asked. The president was agitated by the question and bashed her for it. “How would you know there are no signs? Why, do you know something that I don’t know?” he shot back. ‘Well, they continue to attack our allies and kill Americans—” Bruce started to respond, before Trump cut her off. “You don’t know what the dialogue is behind the scenes. They want to meet desperately to try and end it, because they’re getting decimated. You don’t get that when you’re listening to your fake station, but you don’t know anything.” Bruce started to ask if talks were ongoing, as Trump continued peppering her with questions. “You know something I don’t know? Do you know something I don’t know?” he said. “Well tell us,” Bruce said. “I will tell you they want to desperately meet, and until they are ready to meet in a meaningful way, we have no interest,” Trump answered. The president previously branded Bruce a “terrible person” last year when she asked him questions about Jeffrey Epstein and his family’s business deals in Saudi Arabia. Their feisty exchange on Tuesday followed an Iranian attack on a military base in Jordan that killed two American soldiers last weekend. The U.S. has responded with more military strikes, which reached 10 consecutive days on Monday. “They did slip something through,” Trump said about the Jordan attack a bit later in the Tuesday press conference. He reiterated his administration’s goal is for Iran to never obtain a nuclear weapon.

- Trump Says Houthi Red Sea Blockade ‘Might Happen’ But ‘We’ll Take Care o...President Donald Trump said the U.S. would “take care of it” if Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels follow through on threats to blockade shipping in the Red Sea, as tensions across the Middle East continue to intensify. Speaking alongside Lebanese President Joseph Aoun during an Oval Office press conference on Tuesday, Trump was asked about the Houthi rebels maritime blockade of the waterway, aiming to disrupt one of the world’s most strategically important shipping lanes. “We’ll see what happens. So far it hasn’t happened. Might happen. But we take care of things. If something like that happens we take care of it,” Trump said. The president pointed to his administration’s previous military campaign against the Houthis, adding: “We’ve done that with the Houthis before. And we haven’t heard from them in a while, since we did what we did originally. That was about 45 days of very powerful action we took against the Houthis.” He continued: “And we’ve had no problem with the Houthis; they have had no problem with us for a long period of time, including during this conflict. I think that if there is something like that we’ll just have to take care of business.” His remarks came a day after the Iran-backed Houthi militia announced an immediate blockade against Saudi Arabia, saying it would stop Saudi shipping in the Red Sea. The move raises the prospect of renewed disruption at the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, the narrow waterway linking the Red Sea with the Gulf of Aden and a vital route for global trade and energy exports. The Houthis said the embargo was in response to what they described as an “aggressive siege” by Saudi Arabia, following claims that Riyadh had carried out strikes on Sanaa International Airport. The threat, however, comes as the broader confrontation between the U.S. and Iran continues after the collapse of an interim agreement aimed at keeping the Strait of Hormuz open. Iran has continued attacks on commercial shipping in the Gulf, while the U.S. has responded with sustained military operations and naval deployments intended to protect maritime traffic. Saudi Arabia has increasingly relied on Red Sea export infrastructure to move crude oil as attacks in Hormuz have disrupted tanker traffic, making any disruption at Bab el-Mandeb another potential flashpoint for global energy markets.

Prediction markets showed Darline Graham Nordone’s chances to win a full, six-year term for her deceased brother Lindsey Graham’s Senate seat soared after the president backed her. Trump was the first to suggest Nordone take over her older brother’s seat after his sudden July 11 death, calling it “a fabulous tribute to Lindsey!” Enten said prediction markets gave Nordone a paltry chance before Trump’s blessing: HARRY ENTEN: Darline Graham’s chances have rocketed up because rarely has the power of one man and his endorsements in primaries has been as strong [as] with Donald Trump. Why don’t we take a look here? Okay. Chance to win the South Carolina special Republican primary: Darline Graham on Friday, she stood at just a 14% chance, according to the Kalshi prediction markets. As I said, up like a rocket. Now an 80% chance as the Trump endorsement has come in again, the power of one man and Graham herself saying that in fact, she is going to run for a full term. We’re seeing an 80% chance. Look, that’s not 100%, but it is way, way higher than a 14% chance. She’s the clear favorite to fill that seat, at least win the primary. JOHN BERMAN: That’s a big change in a very short period of time there. What’s the president’s record when he endorses senate races in primaries? ENTEN: Yeah. Okay. So there’s a reason why this 14% became 80%. And that is because when it comes to Senate primaries, Donald Trump’s record is magnificent. You can see it right here. Okay. Trump endorsees won Senate primaries if non-elected incumbents. So we’re not just looking at elected incumbents, right? We’re looking at open seats or appointed incumbents who have never actually won the Senate seat. Look at this since 2022, it’s about 95% of the time. This year in fewer races, it’s 100% of the time. No wonder why the prediction markets and the conventional wisdom have moved so rapidly, once Trump made that endorsement, because at least in Senate races, Trump’s record this year 100%. And since 2022, nearly 100%, there has never been somebody I have seen as powerful in terms of their ability to move the electorate in primaries than the current president of the United States, Donald… [TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago
- Lil Wayne Praises Trump for Building White House Ballroom: ‘I’m So Glad!’ Count Lil Wayne out when it comes to complaining about President Donald Trump’s White House ballroom project. The “Fireman” rapper said he is all for the much-publicized and much-criticized ballroom the president is currently building during a Tuesday appearance on the Friends Keep Secrets podcast. “I’m so glad to hear Trump say — when they was mad at him about building the ballroom — and he was like, everything we do we have to do it on the damn lawn,” Wayne said. “So people who don’t know nothin’ hearin’ that thinkin’ he just bein’ Trump — no, for real, I was glad to hear him saying that.” Wayne said he was speaking about the need for the ballroom based on his personal experience. He performed at a 50th Anniversary of Hip-Hop event spearheaded by former Vice President Kamala Harris in 2023; Wayne remembered the event but had a hard time remembering Harris. “I did meet miss, uh… who was the vice president?” he asked. He then pointed at his buddy who tagged along, who reminded him, “Oh, Kamala.” Give Wayne a break for the hazy recall, though, because he was smoking a fat joint during the podcast. He shared his opinion one year after Trump announced he was building the new ballroom. Construction started in September 2025 and the East Wing of the White House was demolished a month later to make room – a move pundits like MS NOW’s Joe Scarborough complained about on TV. Others have floated conspiracy theories, like MeidasTouch podcaster Anthony Davis arguing Trump wants to “hunker down” in the ballroom and never leave after the 2028 election. After the latest assassination attempt against him at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in April, Trump argued the ballroom was vital for security reasons. “What happened last night is exactly the reason that our great Military, Secret Service, Law Enforcement and, for different reasons, every President for the last 150 years, have been DEMANDING that a large, safe, and secure Ballroom be built ON THE GROUNDS OF THE WHITE HOUSE,” Trump argued. “This event would never have happened with the Militarily Top Secret Ballroom currently under construction at the White House. It cannot be built fast enough!” Watch above. Jason Cohen contributed to this story. The post Lil Wayne Praises Trump for Building White House Ballroom: ‘I’m So Glad!’ first appeared on Mediaite.
