During an interview with NBC News on Monday, Vice President JD Vance said that Iran will get “benefits” for steps they take under the agreement. So, if they give up their stockpile of enriched uranium, that gives them benefits and they will get others if they cease funding terrorism. And “If they do less, then less, potentially nothing flows to them. And that’s the way that we’ve set it up.” Host Tom Llamas asked, “I want to understand this in the simplest terms, what does Iran need to do before they can be rewarded, what do they have to do…

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” Rep. Carlos Gimenez (R-FL) said that, with Iran’s military capabilities, “we should have just finished the job. I think we were 75% of the way there, and we should have just destroyed it all. I think some of it, some of their missiles and stuff lie underground. They may not be able to get to them for a while, because, probably, the entrances have been blown up. But, yeah, I would have wished that we could have gone a little bit further to degrade their military capability.” Co-host Pamela Brown asked, “The Trump…

The conflict in Lebanon has taken West Jerusalem far too long and cost too many lives, the US president has said Syria would do a “better job” fighting the Lebanon-based militant group Hezbollah than Israel, without “killing everyone else,” US President Donald Trump suggested on Tuesday, in a rare public criticism of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government.Israel sent its troops into southern Lebanon to fight Hezbollah in the wake of the US-Israeli attack on Iran. Despite a supposed ceasefire, and with Tehran making an end to the war in Lebanon one of its key demands in negotiations with the US,…

Fans of the Iran soccer team that grabbed a 2-2 draw with New Zealand on Monday at the FIFA World Cup were happy to defy the autocratic sports body and fly flags it had banned – specifically, the pre-revolution Iranian flag of old. Before the contest began hundreds hundreds of protesters rallied outside the stadium to call for an end to the ruthless Iranian Islamic dictatorship. They did the same thing once inside. Right across SoFi Stadium, the pre-revolutionary Iranian standard was visible throughout the crowd, with fans displaying it on flags and T-shirts alike. FIFA officials inside the stadium did…

Tuesday on MS NOW’s “All In,” Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA) said bigotry “seeps out of the White House like poison every single day.” Warnock said, “Jon Ossoff is my brother. I say that and I mean it. We didn’t know each other until we got in this fight together, and we certainly didn’t know that, our races would be so consequential for the future of the country. Obviously, running for the Senate in any circumstance is a big deal.  But who knew that Georgia would flip the Senate and then open the path? Give us all a way to fight, in…

What a difference a year makes! Last June, in the wake of the first joint Israeli-US attack on Iran, a joke was making the rounds in the Middle East. It described a bartender welcoming an American, an Israeli, and an Iranian into his bar, offering them beers and saying: “Congratulations, gentlemen; you have all won.” Not so this time. There’s no question that there is only one winner in the second war against Iran: Iran. There are also multiple losers, including America and Israel.Make no mistake. A truce doesn’t equal peace. Key issues are left for future talks, and there…

Maine Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner declared Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu an “international fugitive,” accusing him of war crimes and other “inhumane acts” – all without evidence. Platner issued his splenetic takedown of Netanyahu in an X post on Tuesday. “Benjamin Netanyahu is an international fugitive. He is charged with the war crimes of starvation as a method of warfare and of intentionally directing an attack against the civilian population; and the crimes against humanity of murder, persecution, and other inhumane acts,” he raged. His post comes days after an alleged former girlfriend of his claimed he cheated on…

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D-AZ) said that the Iran deal is “abysmal” but “this war needs to end. We need to cut our losses. It’s been catastrophic from the beginning, and it’s really destroyed the U.S.’s reputation on the world stage.” Ansari said, “The issue is that this war never should have happened to begin with. None of the objectives that Donald Trump tried to lay out — he changed the objective many times…whether it be destroying the nuclear program, whether it be regime change, whether it be the missile program, none of those…

The US Department of War casts xAI’s data centers as battlefield infrastructure of “paramount national security” Elon Musk’s Grok AI has become an integral part of America’s war machine, and its data centers must be treated like munitions production plants in future conflicts, according to a sworn declaration by the Pentagon’s artificial intelligence chief.The statement about Grok was submitted as part of an effort by US President Donald Trump’s administration to intervene in a lawsuit seeking to restrict the operation of xAI’s Colossus data centers in Memphis, Tennessee, over environmental concerns.Cameron Stanley, the chief digital and artificial intelligence officer at…

In the wake of the murder of an 11-year-old girl that shocked the nation, seven in ten people in France believe that there should be a national referendum to decide whether or not the country should reinstate the death penalty for serious crimes against children. According to a nationally representative survey of 1,010 adults by the CSA Institute for CNEWS, 68 per cent of French people would back a national referendum over bringing back capital punishment for major crimes against children. The poll found that women were more in favour of such a referendum than men, with 70 per cent of women…
