NYC Mayor Mamdani lashed out at Israel yesterday for eliminating Ahmed Wishah, an Al Jazeera “journalist” Palestinians posted an obituary of Wishah, the journalist 👇🏻

Reporter: The Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his forces are not leaving Lebanon. That is a sticking point. Trump: Who did he tell that to, you? Reporter: He said it publicly in Israel. Trump: Well, we'll just take a look at it. Reporter: But what would you do to make sure that he doesn't? Trump: Well, I'm not gonna tell you what I'm gonna do, but it gets solved. I'm a problem solver. I get problems solved real fast, including with BB. Go ahead.

Oh Wow. Trump ended an interview with NBC's Kristen Welker mid-conversation in Wisconsin, calling her a liar to her face before walking off. Trump: "The elections are like a 3rd world country. You're Crooked...let's call it Quits . I've had enough." Welker asked him to stay, saying she had traveled to Wisconsin for the sit-down. Trump: "I've sat in the rain with you for an Hour! I've given you enough time. You ought to straighten out your press. You know what? A country can never be great with a dishonest press. Let's GO."

Here’s the dynamic when it comes to the nuclear negotiations, as I see it: Inside Iran, there isn’t one unified position. It’s a split. For the IRGC, the nuclear program, ballistic missiles, and weapons stockpiles are not bargaining chips. They see them as the core of regime survival. Give that up, and you lose deterrence, leverage, and ultimately control. From their perspective, disarmament is not a deal, it’s surrender. And if the outcome is losing power either way, their logic shifts: fight, escalate, and if necessary embrace martyrdom over capitulation. On the other side, parts of the political leadership appear more pragmatic. They understand the economic and military pressure and are at least open to exploring a deal to preserve what they can. That’s the deadlock. One side sees compromise as survival. The other sees it as the end.
