PRESIDENT TRUMP SECURES DEAL TO STOP IRAN, PROTECT AMERICAKEY MESSAGE: President Trump announced a deal with Iran that delivers on the objectives he set from day one: dismantling Iran's path to a nuclear weapon, restoring stability in the region, and protecting America through strength—not appeasement.
Yesterday, President Trump announced a deal with Iran that would reopen the Strait of Hormuz, stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, and end Iran’s support for terrorism.
Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. President Trump drew that line and enforced it when no other President would.
President Trump ended the fighting on every front, including Lebanon. No forever war.
The Strait of Hormuz is open again, free of charge. A fifth of the world’s oil flows through it. That means relief at the pump and the grocery store.
Iran’s rewards come from its own unfrozen money, not from American taxpayers, and only after it performs.
No nuclear weapon, no full relief. Iran earns it or gets nothing.
President Trump’s approach is the exact opposite of Obama’s failed deal, which gave Iran piles of cash and a pathway to a nuclear weapon.
Obama never even got a signed document. President Trump did, from strength, after dismantling Iran’s program.
This deal achieves the core objectives President Trump outlined:
Iran has agreed to surrender its highly enriched uranium to be destroyed and removed from the country.
A robust inspections regime will verify compliance and prevent Iran from rebuilding its nuclear program in secret.
The agreement includes commitments aimed at ending Iran's support for terrorist proxies and destabilizing activities across the region.
The Strait of Hormuz reopens, helping restore stability to global energy markets and international shipping.
President Trump's military and economic strength shattered the regime.
Iran’s nuclear program is in ruins, its military is gutted, and its economy is collapsing.
The Iranian Navy has been completely annihilated, with the United States sinking more than 160 Iranian vessels.
The President took out Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader who spent decades ordering the deaths of Americans and arming terrorists across the region.
Vice President Vance: "Fundamentally, we have the leverage. We have the diplomatic, economic and military leverage, but we also are extending an open hand to the Iranians and saying, if you guys negotiate in good faith and you make that long-term commitment not to develop nuclear weapons, then we are going to make sure that your country is successful."
President Trump has been crystal clear. Iran will never be allowed to retain a pathway to a nuclear weapon under any circumstances, and Iran must turn over its enriched uranium to be destroyed.
Iran did not come to the table out of goodwill. It came because the regime had no other choice left.
Iran gets NOTHING if it does not comply with the deal.
If Iran fully complies, it will receive sanctions relief and gain access to previously frozen assets.
Sanctions relief and access to those frozen assets are contingent on Iran honoring its commitments under the agreement.
If Iran violates the deal or continues sponsoring terrorism, the benefits disappear.
The money Iran can access in the near term is Iran’s own frozen funds, not a dollar of American taxpayer money.
Vice President Vance: "We say to the Iranians, you are welcome to have access to an unsanctioned economy. You're welcome to be re-invited into the world economy, but only if you honor the commitments that you make in this agreement."
President Trump: “This Great Deal will bring Peace and Security to the whole Region. Many presidents have tried to make Peace with Iran, and all have failed before me. The Leaders of the Region have, for the first time, found a President who can help them achieve real Peace. With the opening of the Strait upon the signing of the Deal on Friday, for purposes of mine removal, oil will flow on both ends again for the Region, and the World!”
There is more work ahead to reach the final deal. But no President other than Trump could have brought us this far.BOTTOM LINE: President Trump said Iran would never obtain a nuclear weapon, and this agreement is designed to ensure exactly that. He negotiated from a position of strength to protect America and make the world safer.

DEMOCRATS' AUTOPSY CONFIRMS THEY'VE LEARNED NOTHINGKEY MESSAGE: A day late and millions of dollars short, Democrats’ leaked 2024 election autopsy release is a stunning admission of failure from a party still in denial about why Americans rejected them at the ballot box.Democrats said the quiet part out loud, acknowledging their candidates as “incapable of projecting strength, unity, and leadership.”Less than 24 hours after the report’s release, Democrats are already turning on each other.
Infighting within the party confirms Democrats have completely abandoned the American people.
The autopsy confirmed Democrats are unorganized, losing support from men and Hispanics, and the DNC has been hollowed out since 2008.
Meanwhile, Americans rallied behind President Trump, re-electing him on a mandate to restore safety in our streets, put money back in our pocketbooks, and restore respect for the United States on the world stage. While Democrats continue political soul-searching over what went wrong in 2024, the President and his administration are gearing up for the midterms.
Democrats clearly learned nothing in 2024, as they continue to support the rising stars of their party like creep James Talarico, Nazi-loving Graham Platner, and criminal sympathizer Roy Cooper. Chairman Joe Gruters: “Democrats’ autopsy confirms what Republicans have known all along: Americans hate them. It’s no shock to us that men in women’s sports and siding with illegal immigrants has left Democrats stranded with no path home.”
RAÚL CASTRO INDICTED FOR CONSPIRACY TO KILL U.S. NATIONALSKEY MESSAGE: The Trump administration is pursuing justice for the Americans killed by the Cuban regime in the 1996 Brothers to the Rescue shootdown, sending a clear message that acts of terrorism and violence against U.S. citizens will never be forgotten or ignored.This week, the Trump administration announced criminal charges against former Cuban leader Raúl Castro and five co-defendants for the 1996 shootdown of two civilian rescue planes over international waters that killed four American men.In February 1996, Brothers to the Rescue pilots Carlos Costa, Armando Alejandre Jr., Mario de la Peña, and Pablo Morales were killed after Cuban MiGs shot down their planes while they were assisting Cubans fleeing the Castro regime.
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche confirmed the charges include conspiracy to kill U.S. nationals, destruction of aircraft, and four counts of murder.Acting Attorney General Blanche: “Raúl Castro and five co-defendants participated in a conspiracy that ended with Cuban military aircraft firing missiles at those civilian planes and killing four Americans.”
FBI Director Kash Patel: "This superseding indictment charges Raúl Castro and five Castro regime co-defendants with conspiracy to kill U.S. nationals, two counts of destruction of aircraft, and four counts of murder and is a major step toward accountability.” The indictment expands on a long-running DOJ case first brought in 2003 and represents one of the most significant accountability actions taken against the Cuban regime in decades. Secretary of State Marco Rubio previously described the Cuban regime as “a kleptocratic communist system” and said the administration’s efforts are aimed at denying resources to those who “oppress and surveil the Cuban people.”
This indictment builds on President Trump’s goals of protecting America’s national security interests.
These charges send a clear message that America will never forget acts of violence against its citizens and will continue standing with the Cuban people against communist oppression.
