Tehran is willing to give Washington “everything,” Trump claims, as he predicts a deal within two weeks The US will declare “total victory” over Iran within two weeks, President Donald Trump has said, claiming Tehran was “willing to give us everything.”Trump made the remark on Monday, hours after Iran and Israel agreed to halt their most intense fighting since an April ceasefire. Earlier that day, Iran declared an end to its attacks on Israel but warned it would respond with “crushing” force if Israeli military operations in Lebanon continued. Tensions had spiked on Sunday after Israel struck Beirut despite…
U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed the two crew members of a U.S. Army Apache Helicopter that crashed near the Strait of Hormuz are uninjured and “fine”. A U.S. Army AH-64 Apache, a helicopter gunship well suited to patrolling waterways and hunting small attack boats, was lost on or near the Strait of Hormuz on Monday. Its two crew members were rescued and it is not immediately clear why the crash happened. U.S. President Donald Trump made a brief statement on the loss as he boarded Air Force One overnight, stating: “the pilots are fine… nobody injured. We are going to issue…
People laughed at President Trump when he began to push Republican-dominated states to do what Democrat-run states had already done decades ago: redistrict their state’s congressional seats to their partisan advantage. The usual-usuals among the Republican Party’s oh-so-smartest assured us this would backfire. But Trump understood that Democrats had long ago redistricted to within an inch of their lives and that Republicans hadn’t. The advantage in that war could only go to the GOP. You see, Illinois has 17 total congressional seats, and 14 are held by Democrats when only 54 percent of Illinoisans voted Democrat in the most recent…
Karim Khan, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), was suspended late Monday following a two-year probe investigating him over long-standing sexual harassment allegations. Khan will remain suspended from the ICC pending a yet-to-be scheduled special secret ballot vote from the court’s 125 member states that will decide his future at the organization. The Assembly of States Parties, the ICC’s management oversight and legislative body, majorly voted to suspend Khan during a Monday night meeting, referring the case to disciplinary proceedings. “The assessment of the Bureau was based on the report of an investigation undertaken by the United Nations Office…
The Reflecting Pool in Washington, DC, is wowing skeptics after months of criticism from the radical left. The Trump administration has continued to debunk criticisms of the Reflecting Pool restoration process. The establishment media has been one of the worst offenders, penning articles picking apart the shade of blue chosen for the bottom of the pool and more. The Washington Post ran to a “color consultant” who believes the shade will look “very dismal.” The New York Times also targeted the improvements made to the pool. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum pointed out that former President Obama’s administration closed the Reflecting Pool for two years, spending a whopping…

Disgraced crypto tycoon Sam Bankman-Fried has filed a formal request for a pardon from President Donald Trump to erase the fraud charges tied to his failed cryptocurrency business. The plea for leniency comes after Trump said in January he was not planning to grant the FTX founder – who has always maintained his innocence of any and all charges of fraud – any clemency. Bankman-Fried is barely two years into his 25-year sentence after he was convicted of multiple federal charges related to FTX, the cryptocurrency exchange he founded and led, and its related company Alameda Research. Forbes reports the 34-year-old’s…
ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith went on a tirade against President Donald Trump on Monday and said that the Commander-in-Chief has “no business showing up” to Game 3 of the NBA Finals in New York City. Smith delivered his broadside on Monday morning’s edition of ESPN’s First Take, during which the left-wing commentator called Trump a “narcissist” for wanting to attend the Game 3 trial between the Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs to be held at Madison Square Garden in the Big Apple. He prefaced his comments by saying that he doesn’t like the president’s attendance at the game at…
BELGRADE, Serbia — More than a million people traveled to the Church of Saint Sava over the past several weeks to witness a holy relic of the Virgin Mary, a piece of a belt she wore when pregnant with Jesus Christ. The belt, on display for 24 hours a day, seven days a week for the last couple of weeks, was flown in from Mount Athos in Greece, where it is normally kept — the first time in centuries the relic had been returned to Serbia. Holy relic of the Virgin Mary’s belt in the Church of Saint Sava in…
The Department of Justice has filed cases to de-naturalize 17 legalized migrants after decades of widespread citizenship fraud in the nation’s immigration system. “Gaining U.S. citizenship is a privilege and under the steadfast leadership of President Trump, this Department of Justice maintains a zero-tolerance policy for the abuse of this process,” Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a department statement. “American citizenship is a privilege, and it must be earned honestly,” said DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin. “If you come here break our laws, and lie in your immigration proceedings, you forfeit that privilege,” he added. Federal law allows the deportation…
