It would be hard to overstate just how much the media hates Trump. They leap to every conclusion and then put it out over the internet. I never liked this guy, Michael Wolff. But that’s who they’re using to try to turn us against Trump? I’m sure we’d find something or maybe lots of things not to like about him. But we know of his past exploits and have forgiven him.

Everybody’s up in arms about the Supreme Court ruling against Trump ICEE tariffs. I think he’s going to get his way. I heard him say so, and that’s enough. I think God is blessing him, and he said he’s going to do whatever he wants regardless of the ruling. That’s my take.

Prince Andrew has been stripped of his titles and may do life in prison. I have always thought the talk of what went on with Epstein’s island were exaggerated. But the look on Andrew’s face. He looks scared to death. I had hoped that these stories were off the mark. And I do think a lot of people, big names, went and were not engulfed in scandal. Alan Dershowitz for example, I think he brought his wife and kids. But who knows anymore.  

Somebody, or maybe lots of somebodies, wanted Epstein dead. The story of him in prison is unbelievable. Two guards, both asleep, cameras not working? Give us a break! Plus they’ve got some cameras that seem to show something. We may never figure it out. But apparently they’ve got autopsy stuff, and I’m not going to look. It seems assured that he is dead, and somebody’s going to dedicate their whole life trying to tell us we can’t believe our eyes.  

The Ayatollah is making threats. I don’t care if we have to destroy Iran’s capabilities. We’ve entered a good time in America and no weird holy men are going to do anything, despite all the threats. He better be careful. I don’t think Trump cottons to the Ayatollah making brash statements, especially when he can’t back them up. He better quit while there’s something left. All these people in the streets of Iran? What’s new.

U.S. Presidents Donald Trump and Joe Biden both tried to reach a nuclear deal with the kingdom to share American technology. Nonproliferation experts warn any spinning centrifuges within Saudi Arabia could open the door to a possible weapons program for the kingdom, something its assertive crown prince has suggested he could pursue if Tehran obtains an atomic bomb.

Already, Saudi Arabia and nuclear-armed Pakistan signed a mutual defense pact last year after Israel launched an attack on Qatar targeting Hamas officials. Pakistan’s defense minister then said his nation’s nuclear program “will be made available” to Saudi Arabia if needed, something seen as a warning for Israel, long believed to be the Middle East’s only nuclear-armed state.

It wasn’t immediately clear where the negotiations would be held after Tehran’s overnight announcement. American officials have not said where the talks would be held. President Donald Trump separately complained Monday about the pace of nuclear talks between the United States and Iran as the two countries start a new round of pivotal negotiations.

“I think they’re tapping us along,” he said in the Oval Office during a meeting with El Salvador’s president.

But US President Donald Trump must first agree there can be no “military option”, Araghchi said, and added that Iran would “never accept coercion”.

He also insisted the negotiations in Oman would be indirect, contradicting Trump’s surprise announcement on Monday that they would be “direct talks”.

Trump, who pulled the US out of a 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and world powers during his first term, warned that Iran would be in “great danger” if talks were not successful.

The post Iran says it is ready for nuclear deal if US stops military threats first appeared on Garner Ted Armstrong Evangelistic Association.

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s move to suspend his country’s involvement in the last remaining arms control treaty with the U.S. came as a disturbing surprise to multiple former officials who negotiated the pact and nonproliferation experts committed to ending the expansion of nuclear forces.

For more than 50 years, the U.S. and Russia — the world’s two largest nuclear powers — have had some form of an agreement in place that capped their ability to produce or deploy nuclear weapons. Putin’s announcement that he was suspending participation in the New START Treaty could end that era, with some of those experts debating whether this could launch another Cold War-style arms race. Tensions between the two nations over the war in Ukraine only increases those concerns.

“Putin’s clearly trying to inject nuclear leverage into both Ukraine and his relationship with the United States,” said Jon Wolfsthal, who helped negotiate the New START Treaty in 2009 as a member of the National Security Council. “And that should worry a lot of people.”

While Putin maintained in his speech Tuesday that Russia would not be the first to use a nuclear weapon, Russia has rattled its nuclear saber multiple times since the start of the war, referencing its nuclear capabilities and threatening Ukraine’s nuclear power plantswith bombs and shells. Secretary of State Antony Blinken told reporters on Tuesday that the U.S. is keeping a watchful eye on how the situation develops and is open to further talks.
