(Alex Brandon/AP photo) President Donald Trump said that there will be no peace deal in Iran unless there’s an “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER” in a social media post on Friday as he vowed the U.S. will bring Tehran “back from the brink of destruction.” Trump took to his Truth Social platform to sound off on the regime Friday morning as the war entered its seventh day, writing: There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER! After that, and the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s), we, and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners, will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction, making it economically bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. IRAN WILL HAVE A GREAT FUTURE. “MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN (MIGA!).” Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP The post came a day after Trump spoke withTIME magazine’s Eric Cortellessa for a profile of the ongoing U.S. military operation in Iran that killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and other top officals over the weekend. Cortellessa depicted the moment after the Saturday strike that killed the ayatollah. “I’ve killed all their leaders,” Trump said. “That room is gone.” When Cortellessa asked whether Americans should fear an expansion of strikes to within the United States, Trump responded, “I guess.” The president added: “But I think they’re worried about that all the time. We think about it all the time. We plan for it. But yeah, you know, we expect some things. Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”The post Trump Vows There Will Be No Iran Peace Deal Without ‘UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER’ first appeared on Mediaite.

CNBC anchor Rick Santelli exclaimed twice over a February jobs report that showed unexpected losses and a sharp drop in the workforce — each of which elicited a stunned “Wow!” Experts were expecting an increase of around 50,000 jobs ahead of the Employment Situation report for last month. On Friday morning, the Bureau of Labor Statistics released a February jobs report that saw 92,000 jobs lost and 69,000 more in downward revisions: Total nonfarm payroll employment edged down by 92,000 in February, and the unemployment rate changed little at 4.4 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Employment in health care decreased, reflecting strike activity. Employment in information and federal government continued to trend down. … The change in total nonfarm payroll employment for December was revised down by 65,000, from +48,000 to -17,000, and the change for January was revised down by 4,000, from +130,000 to +126,000. With these revisions, employment in December and January combined is 69,000 lower than previously reported. On Friday’s edition of CNBC’s Squawk Box, Santelli broke the news with intermittent dismay: CNBC ANCHOR RICK SANTELLI: Yes, here we go! This is the big Feb job job jobs report! Non-farm payrolls minus 92,000! Minus 92,000. That is a biggie! Minus 92,000 last month 130k downgraded to 126,000 Well, what would that comp to? Minus? Oof! Wow! 185 in December of 2020. There’s where our comp is. Now, that means we have a revision over two months now of minus 69,000. … The unemployment rate moves up one tick to 4.4%. We’re expecting it to remain at 4.3. 4. 4 equals where we ended up last year to find a higher number you’re going to November. So Dec was 4.4, November 25 was 4 .5. If we look at labor force participation? Wow! A big drop! 62.0. We were expecting 62.5, 62.0 would be the weakest and I have to really go back on this. 62.0 would equal Dec of 21 to find a smaller number.

(AP Photo) Russia is providing Iran support in targeting U.S. forces, according to an exclusive new report from the Washington Post. Citing three people familiar with the ongoing conflict, the Post reported the suspicion that Russia is providing technical assistance to Iran in helping to identify and target U.S. forces to strike. Since the U.S. and Israel launched strikes on Saturday against Iran, six U.S. service members were killed in Kuwait by an Iranian drone. “It does seem like it’s a pretty comprehensive effort,” one of the people familiar with the situation said. Another said Russia’s support for Iran may boil down to U.S. support for Ukraine, a country Russia has invaded and battled for years. “The Russians are more than aware of the assistance that we’re giving the Ukrainians,” the person said. “I think they were very happy to try to get some payback.” According to the officials, Russia is providing Iran with “targeting information to attack U.S. forces.” Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth appeared to push back on this, however, saying Iran allies Russia and China are “not really a factor here.” “The Iranian regime is being absolutely crushed,” White House spokesperson Anna Kelly said. “Their ballistic missile retaliation is decreasing every day, their navy is being wiped out, their production capacity is being demolished, and proxies are hardly putting up a fight.” President Donald Trump had laid out a timeframe of a few weeks for his military operation against Iran, but he’s also warned it could expand beyond that and end up including other countries, like Cuba. The strikes thus far have killed much of Iran’s leadership, including the country’s supreme leader. Trump said this week that he expects Iran to respond, possibly with attacks on American civilians. “I think they’re worried about that all the time,” he said. “We think about it all the time. We plan for it. But yeah, you know, we expect some things. Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.”The post Russia Helping Iran Target U.S. Forces for Strikes, Washington Post Reports first appeared on Mediaite.

President Donald Trump’s public messaging in the hours before initial joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran was part of a coordinated effort to mislead Tehran and keep Ayatollah Ali Khamenei naively exposed, according to a senior Israeli official. The claim, reported Friday by Fox News chief foreign correspondent Trey Yingst, suggests the president played a key role in a broader “deception campaign” designed to convince Iranian leadership that no attack was imminent, which allowed Israeli forces to target and kill the country’s supreme leader while he remained above ground. The revelations came after Israeli Defense Forces released images from Thursday night showing a barrage striking what it described as Khamenei’s bunker complex. WATCH: ~50 Israeli Air Force fighter jets dismantled Ali Khamenei’s underground military bunker beneath the Iranian regime’s leadership compound in Tehran. pic.twitter.com/Nw0tvvQMRX — Israel Defense Forces (@IDF) March 6, 2026 Providing more details on the facility, Yingst reported that the Iranian leader never entered the bunker before he was killed. “At the time of the strike, when Operation Epic Fury began, when the Ayatollah Khamenei was actually killed, he was above ground, he did not go into this bunker and that is why the Israelis were able to kill him in part, because he didn’t think that he was going to be targeted,” Yingst told Fox & Friends. According to Yingst, Israeli officials said that false sense of security was part of an effort coordinated strategy at senior levels between Washington and Jerusalem: “There was a deception campaign, I am told by a senior Israeli official, to make the Iranians think this attack wasn’t even going to begin.” The official told Fox & Friends that despite visible military preparations, Khamenei’s inner circle failed to move him underground. Part of the strategy involved signals meant to lull Tehran into complacency, including public posts and statements from Trump himself. “There were a number of posts made and statements by President Trump in the 24 hours leading up to the beginning of this operation,” he said. “All of this meant to deceive Iranian leadership,” Yingst reported. He added: “This official said the result was exactly what planners had hoped for. Khamenei stayed above ground in the opening strike of Operation Epic Fury found him right there.” One day before strikes began, on February 27, Trump mused negotiations with Iran were difficult but insisted: “I’d rather do… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - Morning Joe Hosts Mock ‘Crazy’ $220M Ads That Reportedly Got Noem Fired: ‘...Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough laughed out loud as the show’s crew mocked the $220 million ads that showed Kristi Noem parading on horseback, which reportedly got her fired as Homeland Security secretary. President Donald Trump reportedly grew furious after Noem said that he had commissioned the ad spend during a grilling before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday. The president reportedly called Senator John Kennedy (R-LA), who scolded the former cabinet member, after the hearing to rage that Noem had “lied.” The president fired Noem late Thursday and nominated Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) as her replacement. Contrary to Kennedy’s claims and reports from insiders, Trump denied that there was a “last straw” in his decision, speaking to NBC News, and praised Noem’s work. Still, MS NOW’s Morning Joe crew rounded on the “crazy” ads, which feature Noem on horseback in the mountains, spliced with clips of the president. “It was a campaign ad of her!” Scarborough said. “It was crazy!” “The ads with her on horses with her cowboy and full hair and make-up. The advertisement, of course, encouraged undocumented immigrants to self-deport. Weird,” co-host Mika Brzezinski quipped as she reported. Producers rolled back the clip of Kennedy warning Noem that the ads put Trump in a “terribly awkward position” before cutting back to the studio. “Yeah, I mean, it certainly did,” Scarborough said. “I mean, you just look at those ads and you’re like, really? They spent $220 million on those campaign ads? “Like movie shoots!” Brzezinski chimed in, laughing. Scarborough continued: “Yeah, exactly. I thought I was seeing, like, a scene out of North by Northwest. Yeah.” The ads began to roll on-screen before the hosts began mocking it live, while watching: “There we go, there we go.” “Pan off into the sky,” Brzezinski said sarcastically. “There she is, representing America at its best.” “It’s great cinematography, I wonder how much that cost – oh wait, it cost $220 million!” Scarborough said before folding in laughter. “And she blamed Donald Trump!” He too began to remark on the ad: “Oh Look! We got rockets, assassination attempts…” “This is her way of saying, ‘Don’t come,’” his co-host joked. “Kristi Noem: I am America!” Scarborough jeered. “I don’t even know what that was. Is that a scene from The Shining? It’s all so scary. Take this down! Take this down, now!” “I feel bad for the horse,”… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
