NOW PLAYING

Talks between the U.S. and Iran are on hold, on Day 2 of a 60-day window for negotiations, as Israel launched new strikes in Lebanon against Hezbollah.

President Trump, facing opposition from many in his own party over the memorandum of understanding signed with Tehran, railed against those opposing his deal on Friday morning in a social media post.

“The War has diminished Iran! It doesn’t, any longer, have an Air Force, a Navy, Antiaircraft Equipment, Radar, or practically anything else, and yet the Dumocrats say that Iran is better off now than it was four months ago. Can you imagine getting away with that??? How stupid can some people be???” he posted on Truth Social. He also pushed back on the idea Iran is getting money from the deal.

Republicans in the Senate have more questions and concerns about Trump’s peace deal.

Meanwhile, Iran is celebrating what Tehran views as a major victory against the U.S.

Trump on Friday will head to Camp David for the weekend, a presidential retreat he has visited only one other time this term, last June.
