Trump’s Stunning 3AM Regime Change Speech to Iran, in Text AND Video.
President Donald J. Trump has issued the following statement on the joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran.
TRANSCRIPT:
A short time ago, the United States military began major combat operations in Iran.Our objective is to defend the American people by eliminating imminent threats from the Iranian regime, a vicious group of very hard, terrible people.Its menacing activities directly endanger the United States, our troops, our bases overseas, and our allies throughout the world.For 47 years, the Iranian regime has chanted “Death to America and waged an unending campaign of bloodshed and mass murder, targeting the United States, our troops, and the innocent people in many, many countries.Among the regime’s very first acts was to back a violent takeover of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, holding dozens of American hostages for 444 days.In 1983, Iran’s proxies carried out the Marine barracks bombing in Beirut that killed 241 American military personnel.In 2000, they knew and were probably involved with the attack on the USS Cole.Many died.Iranian forces killed and maimed hundreds of American service members in Iraq.The regime’s proxies have continued to launch countless attacks against American forces stationed in the Middle East in recent years, as well as U.S. Naval and commercial vessels in international shipping lanes.It’s been mass terror, and we’re not going to put up with it any longer.From Lebanon to Yemen and Syria to Iraq, the regime has armed, trained, and funded terrorist militias that have soaked the earth with blood and guts.And it was a ranch proxy, Hamas, that launched the monstrous October 7th attacks on Israel, slaughtering more than 1,000 innocent people, including 46 Americans, while taking 12 of our citizens hostage.It was brutal.Something like the world has never seen before.Iran is the world’s number one state sponsor of terror, and just recently killed tens of thousands of its own citizens on the street as they protested.It has always been the policy of the United States, in particular, my administration, that this terrorist regime can never have a nuclear weapon.I’ll say it again.They can never have a nuclear weapon.That is why in Operation Midnight Hammer last June, we obliterated the regime’s nuclear program at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan…

Report: Mike Johnson tells GOP donors that Neal Dunn may be terminally ill
The Panama City Republican has said he intends to serve out his term.
House Speaker Mike Johnson reportedly told donors in Florida that U.S. Rep. Neal Dunn may be terminally ill.
Punchbowl News’ Jake Shermanreported that several donors at a retreat shared news from the event. Multiple sources said Johnson told “a room of GOP donors” that the Panama City Republican “may have a terminal diagnosis.”
Florida Politics has reached out to Dunn’s Office for comment.
Dunn announced in January that he will not run for re-election to another term. Within weeks of his announcement, rumors began to swirl that the 73-year-old may leave office early, potentially setting up a Special Election and leaving his seat vacant.
But Dunn’s Office just this week tried to put a stop to those rumors, telling Florida Politics he had no intention to leave office early.
“As a dedicated public servant, he will remain in Congress to represent his constituents through the end of this term,” said Communications Director Eleanor Railsback.
The following day, however, Dunn missed the State of the Union address and his office was closed to visitors.
“Our office is closed today while our team attends our all staff meeting in the district,” a sign on the door of his Washington office reads. Normal business will not resume in the office until March 2.
That came after public urging by Johnson for Dunn to continue serving.
“I’ve encouraged him to stay and be part of this, and I think he wants to do that. And so you have to ask him all the circumstances,” Johnson told reporters on Feb. 11. Republicans of note hold just a 218-214 majority in the U.S. House.
A source close to Dunn believes the Congressman wants to continue to hold office, but that health issues could be the final determinant.
Should Dunn leave office early, whether because of resignation or death, it would fall to Gov. Ron DeSantis to call a Special Election to replace the Congressman, but there is nothing in state law dictating timing. The State Department has said it would take at least 130 days to fully run a Special Election.
The Midterm Election cycle, of course, is already underway. Florida’s statewide Primary is scheduled for Aug. 18.
But the state has rushed elections before, sometimes with the tight margins in the U.S. House in mind. After the resignations last year of GOP U.S. Reps. Matt Gaetz and Michael Waltz, Gov. Ron DeSantis called quick Special Elections.
DeSantis called on the Florida Secretary of State to formulate an election schedule in November. U.S. Reps. Jimmy Patronis and Randy Fine won those Special Elections on April 1.
But DeSantis has not always acted with such haste. When Democratic U.S. Rep. Alcee Hastings died in office, DeSantis allowed nine months to pass between his death and the Special Election to replace him.
Florida’s 2nd Congressional District, at least as currently drawn, is considered a safe GOP seat. Dunn in 2024 won re-election with 61.6% of the vote over Democrat Yen Bailey, as almost 58.6% of voters in the district supported Republican Donald Trump for President.

Iran launches retaliatory strike on Israel
The Jewish state and the US earlier started a “preemptive” attack on the Islamic Republic after nuclear talks failed to deliver a breakthrough
The Iranian military has launched a wave of retaliatory strikes on Israel after the Jewish state and the US attacked the Islamic Republic,although the extent of the damage remains unclear.
On Saturday morning, Israeli DefenseMinister Israel Katz announced that the country had carried out a “preemptive strike” on Iran “to remove threats against the State of Israel.”
US President Donald Trump later confirmed that American forces are participating, whilevowing to dismantle the Iranian nuclear program, “raze [Iranian] missile industry,”and “annihilate their navy.”
Tehran maintains it does not seek nuclear weapons, insisting its research program is for peaceful purposes only.
Following the US-Israeli attack, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reported several waves of missiles “launched from Iran toward the State of Israel.” The military said air defenses were working to intercept the projectiles but cautioned that protection “is not hermetic,” urging the public to seek shelter when sirens sound. The IDF also called on citizens not to share footage or disclose the locations of impacts.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), an elite branch of Tehran’s military, confirmed that the strikes are ongoing, saying that “in response to the aggression of the hostile and criminal enemy… the first wave of extensive missile and drone attacks by the Islamic Republic of Iran towards the occupied territories has begun.”
Israeli authorities have said there have been no reports of injuries, with media indicating that one Iranian missile had hit an open area in the northern part of the country.
In addition to Israel, explosions have been heard in the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Kuwait, which all host US military assets. An unnamed Iranian official told Al Jazeera that “all American and Israeli assets and interests in the Middle East have become a legitimate target,” adding that “there are no red lines after this aggression.”
The recent escalation comes after the US-Iran nuclear talks failed to deliver a breakthrough, with Trump saying that he was “not happy” with the negotiations. Iran maintains its nuclear program serves peaceful purposes only while warning that a broad regional conflict will have major repercussions.

🚨 STEPHEN MILLER NAILED why Democrats’ demands for judicial warrants for illegals is a INSANE
“There are 15 MILLION illegal aliens that Biden let into the country. If every one of them got the trial that you're asking for, it would take CENTURIES to remove them.
We’d be talking about this in THREE OR FOUR HUNDRED YEARS!
Their great-great-great-great GRANDCHILDREN would be the ones representing them in court!”
“Illegal aliens have to be removed, and they have to be removed QUICKLY. That is an ESSENTIAL COMPONENT of having something that we like to call a country.”

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth
@SecWar
This week, Anthropic delivered a master class in arrogance and betrayal as well as a textbook case of how not to do business with the United States Government or the Pentagon.
Our position has never wavered and will never waver: the Department of War must have full, unrestricted access to Anthropic’s models for every LAWFUL purpose in defense of the Republic.
Instead, @AnthropicAI and its CEO @DarioAmodei, havechosen duplicity. Cloaked in the sanctimonious rhetoric of “effective altruism,” they have attempted to strong-arm the United States military into submission - a cowardly act of corporate virtue-signaling that places Silicon Valley ideology above American lives.
The Terms of Service of Anthropic’s defective altruism will never outweigh the safety, the readiness, or the lives of American troops on the battlefield.
Their true objective is unmistakable: to seize veto power over the operational decisions of the United States military. That is unacceptable.
As President Trump stated on Truth Social, the Commander-in-Chief and the American people alone will determine the destiny of our armed forces, not unelected tech executives.
Anthropic’s stance is fundamentally incompatible with American principles. Their relationship with the United States Armed Forces and the Federal Government has therefore been permanently altered.
In conjunction with the President's directive for the Federal Government to cease all use of Anthropic's technology, I am directing the Department of War to designate Anthropic a Supply-Chain Risk to National Security. Effective immediately, no contractor, supplier, or partner that does business with the United States military may conduct any commercial activity with Anthropic. Anthropic will continue to provide the Department of War its services for a period of no more than six months to allow for a seamless transition to a better and more patriotic service.
America’s warfighters will never be held hostage by the ideological whims of Big Tech.This decision is final.

'That's too bad': Trump says Iran does not want to go far enough
17 hours ago
US President Donald Trump says Iran does not want to go far enough in negotiations, shortly after Oman's foreign minister said Tehran was ready to give up its uranium stockpiles and allow IAEA verification.
"They should make a deal, but they don’t want to quite go far enough, and it’s too bad," Trump told reporters in Texas.
"Look, we’ve been playing with them for 47 years, and that’s a long time. They’ve been blowing the legs off our people, blowing the face off our people, the arms. They’ve been knocking out ships one by one. And every month, there’s something else."
"You can’t put up with it too long. We’re not happy with the negotiation. They just don’t want to, they don’t want to say the key words 'we’re not going to have a nuclear weapon'. They have to say 'we’re not going to have a nuclear weapon' and they just can’t quite get there."
Trump said Iran wants "to enrich a little bit. You don’t have to enrich when you have that much oil. So, so I’m not happy with the negotiation. I say no enrichment, not 20%, 30%. They always want 20%, 30%. They want it for civilian, you know, for civil, civil. I think it’s uncivil. So I’m not happy with it."
"But they’re not getting to the right answer.And we’re not gonna see people… 47 years we’ve been doing this with them," he added.

"Iran has agreed to give up its stockpile of enriched material - zero accumulation - and allow for full verification by the IAEA of its nuclear program," CBS News reported citing Oman's foreign minister Badr Albusaidi who acts as a mediator in Iran-US talks.
"The most important achievement is the agreement that Iran will never possess nuclear material capable of producing a bomb. This is entirely new—unlike the deal negotiated during President Obama’s time—and makes the enrichment debate less relevant. With zero stockpiling, it becomes impossible to build a bomb, regardless of enrichment levels. This key point has often been overlooked by the media, and I want to clarify it from a mediator’s perspective," Oman Foreign Minister said in an interview with Face the Nation.
Asked about the rest of the stockpile in Iran, Albusaidi said there is an agreement on that too.
"There's no accumulation. So there will be zero accumulation, zero stockpiling and full verification. That is also equally important achievement. I think a full and comprehensive verification by the IAEA which is the agency in charge of of this this file," he added.
Oman Foreign Minister also said Tehran is open to negotiations for the rest of issues, including missile program.
"Iran, I believe, is open to discussing all issues, including ballistic missiles, though it insists this round remain focused on the nuclear file. Other matters can follow in due course under an appropriate framework. For now, the priority is to finalize a clear nuclear deal that defines each side’s obligations. We have also discussed and tentatively agreed that non-nuclear concerns could be addressed through a regional dialogue between Iran and its neighbors," he said.
