    Political Strategist Says Democrats Will Target Trump’s Family After Midterms

    Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville is escalating his rhetoric against President Donald Trump, warning that Democrats will aggressively target not just the president—but his family—if they win back power in the 2026 midterms.

    In a new video this week, Carville predicted sweeping GOP losses in November, framing the expected outcome as a political knockout that would leave Trump exposed to a wave of investigations.

    “Let’s talk about your future, your post-November future,” Carville said, anticipating widespread defeat of Trump and the GOP. “The Democrats are going to investigate you to no end.”

    “They’re going to start going after you. Then they’re going to start figuring out where all the money stolen is,” he continued. “Then they’re going to go after your stupid jacka– kids and their spouses and all the other bulls— that you see, and they’re going to investigate the s— out of you.”

    The comments build on a broader—and increasingly aggressive—set of predictions from Carville, who has repeatedly argued that Democrats are poised for major midterm gains. Across multiple recent appearances, he has claimed Republicans are heading toward significant losses, citing voter frustration over inflation, dissatisfaction with Trump’s leadership, and fallout from the administration’s handling of the Iran conflict.

    Carville has gone even further, suggesting those losses could trigger a chain reaction inside Washington: Democratic control of Congress, immediate impeachment proceedings, and a flood of investigations into Trump’s finances, conduct in office, and inner circle.

    Trump himself has warned that a Democratic victory would lead to exactly that scenario, arguing that impeachment and investigations would follow quickly if Republicans lose control of the House or Senate.

    Carville, however, is not just predicting investigations—he is openly embracing them. He has previously urged Democrats to center their messaging on accountability, including proposals for commissions to examine alleged “war profiteering” tied to the Iran conflict, which he has called a “catastrophe of the first order” and a “racket war.”

    In his latest remarks, Carville also raised the possibility that Trump could face scrutiny beyond U.S. borders.

    “When it comes to the stuff you’re doing in Iran, I got to tell you, you’re getting really, really, really close to war crimes here. You’re probably going to cross the line,” Carville warned. “And the one thing that Democrats are going to insist on in the 2028 election is that if you’re indicted by the international courts and I think it’s in Hog or Hague or somewhere in the Netherlands, we’re not going to protect your a–, not gonna protect you.”

    He added that Trump’s political support could quickly erode—even within his own party—if Republicans suffer major defeats.

    “You know who’s going to turn on you?” Carville asked. “What’s left of the Republican senators.”

    Carville has repeatedly floated a dramatic endgame: that the mounting pressure—from investigations, impeachment threats, and political isolation—could ultimately push Trump to resign early and seek a pardon from Vice President JD Vance. Still, he has argued that even a presidential pardon would not shield Trump from state-level or international legal exposure.

    “I got news for you, dude. You’re done,” he said. “And we’re going to enjoy watching your downfall. Thank you very much.”

    The White House quickly fired back. In a statement to Fox News Digital, a spokesperson said, “James Carville is a stone-cold loser who clearly suffers from a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.”

    Carville’s latest comments are consistent with his long track record of blunt—and often controversial—political predictions. In recent years, he has repeatedly forecast Trump’s political collapse, including predicting a Democratic victory in 2024 and even suggesting Trump’s second administration would “collapse in 30 days.”

    Now, with the 2026 midterms approaching, Carville is once again making a high-stakes call—this time not just about electoral outcomes, but about what he believes will be an aggressive, wide-ranging effort to investigate Trump, his family, and those closest to him if Democrats take back power.

    Pelosi Leaves Door Open To Impeachment If Dems Retake Power

    Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi declined to rule out a future impeachment effort against President Donald Trump if Democrats regain control of Congress, leaving the decision to a potential new majority while emphasizing that the party’s immediate focus remains on policy priorities.

    In an interview Tuesday with MSNBC’s Ali Vitali, Pelosi was pressed on whether Democrats would consider impeaching Trump during his second term, particularly amid ongoing voter concerns about “corruption.” While she did not directly endorse such a move, Pelosi made clear that the possibility would ultimately depend on the actions of a future Congress.

    “Well, I think that, I’m not, that’s just not where we’re starting with this, but when we get power, we will have power to go there to do what we said we’re going to do, lower the cost of living. Some people say you should use other language, but lower the costs of living, A. B, fix what they have done to the healthcare system with their trillion dollars from Medicaid, half a trillion dollars for Medicare, and the money from SNAP. I do believe that food is medicine as well, especially for children, and again fight their corruption. So that’s what we’re setting out to do,” Pelosi said.

    Recent polling has fueled speculation about a potential shift in power. Several surveys show Republicans facing a difficult midterm environment, with Democrats gaining ground in key battleground districts and generic ballot polling tightening or tilting left. That has raised the stakes of questions about what Democrats might do if they reclaim the House.

    Vitali followed up, asking Pelosi directly whether she believes Trump has committed impeachable offenses in his second term.

    “We have a convicted felon who’s president of the United States. That was then, this is now. I think, that that’s subject to review. But I don’t think that’s something, that’s not where you start. That’s what you have to do because of what he has done. That’s subject a great review. We had great review as to what were the grounds for impeachment. And that’s up to a new Congress to come to that decision. But the fact is that, people want to know what we’re doing for them,” Pelosi responded.

    Pelosi repeatedly emphasized that impeachment is not a political starting point but a process that requires evidence and deliberation.

    “You’re asking about what comes next. That’s up to the new Congress. And that’s up to them to decide where we go of reviewing what he’s done. And that requires power, all the kinds of things that build a case. It’s not just about, ‘I feel like doing this,'” she added.

    Trump, for his part, has already predicted that Democrats would pursue impeachment if they regain control, framing it as a likely political outcome of a Democratic victory in November. His allies have echoed that warning, arguing that impeachment would be a central focus of a Democratic-led House.

    Pelosi, however, sought to contrast that narrative by stressing economic and policy concerns as the party’s primary message heading into the midterms. She pointed to lowering costs, restoring healthcare funding, and addressing nutrition programs as top priorities.

    The former speaker also reiterated that she has no regrets about leading the House in impeaching Trump twice during his first term, decisions she has long defended as necessary and grounded in evidence.

    Her comments mark a notable shift from late 2025, when she told USA Today’s Susan Page that there was not sufficient cause at that time to pursue impeachment again.

    “If he crosses the border again,” Pelosi said in that earlier interview. “But that’s not an incidental thing. You say, ‘We’re going to do that.’ No, there has to be cause. There has to be reason. We had review. This was a very serious, historic thing.”

    Pelosi, who announced she will not seek re-election when her term ends in January 2027, appears to be leaving the question of impeachment deliberately open-ended—framing it as a decision for future lawmakers rather than a defined campaign promise, even as political pressure builds on both sides ahead of a potentially pivotal midterm election.

    Veteran Political Strategist Predicts Trump Will Exit White House Early

    Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville is doubling down on his prediction that President Donald Trump will not complete his second term, arguing this week that mounting political pressure could force him out of office within the next year.

    In a Wednesday video for Politicon, Carville mixed his trademark blunt insults with a strikingly specific forecast: that Trump will “cut a deal” and resign from the presidency by April of next year. The longtime Democratic operative said he believes Republicans are headed for significant losses in the 2026 midterms—losses he argues will fundamentally weaken Trump’s standing in Washington.

    Carville declared he’s so confident in Democrats’ chances in midterm elections that he’s predicting the GOP losses will feel like a “punch” from Mike Tyson for Trump.

    “Let’s talk about your future, your post-November future. First, people are not going to return your phone calls. They’re going to correctly think, you know… they’ll say, well, he’s got two years left. He can do damage. No one gives a s**t about him. The Democrats are going to investigate you to no end,” he predicted.

    The comments build on Carville’s earlier assertions that a Democratic sweep of the House and Senate would leave Trump politically isolated and increasingly irrelevant in Washington. In prior remarks, Carville suggested that “everything that he tries blows up in his face” and argued that a Democratic-controlled Congress would effectively sideline the president.

    His latest prediction goes further, outlining a scenario in which Trump faces not only political marginalization but a wave of investigations from multiple fronts. Carville pushed for probes into alleged financial misconduct, claiming that “money stolen” by Trump and his family should be examined. He also suggested Trump could face scrutiny from international bodies over his handling of military strikes against Iran—a conflict Carville has previously described as a “catastrophe of the first order” and a “racket war.”

    Carville argued that even Republican allies on Capitol Hill would eventually turn on Trump if the party suffers major midterm defeats.

    “You know who’s gonna turn on you? What’s left of the Republican senators. There may be 43 to 45 of them left. Now the House is gonna vote to impeach you. You’re gonna be impeached in 2027… these senators can’t stand you. These Republican senators, they can’t stand you. They have to be there because of their politics, back in their states, but it’s gonna be apparent to them that you’re a loser. You’re a losing f**king bet.”

    Trump himself has acknowledged the political stakes surrounding the midterms, warning that a Democratic victory would likely bring renewed impeachment efforts and aggressive congressional investigations. He has framed the election as a critical firewall against what he describes as partisan attempts to undermine his presidency.

    Carville, however, argued that the pressure from investigations—combined with electoral losses and eroding Republican support—could ultimately push Trump toward resignation. He predicted the president would seek a deal that includes a pardon from Vice President JD Vance, allowing him to exit the White House before facing further consequences.

    “We refer to it as a come-to-Jesus moment. You’re gonna assess where you are, even through your cloudy, stupid, fat-addled brain, you’re gonna figure out, I gotta get the hell out of here. You’re going to cut a deal and you’re gonna resign. [Vance] is going to pardon you. He’s got to pardon a lot of other people, but he’s a creepy, ambitious little twerp. He’ll do whatever he can to get into the White House. But they can’t pardon you for state crimes. They can’t pardon you in the International Criminal Court.”

    While Carville is known for his provocative rhetoric and long-shot predictions, his comments reflect broader Democratic messaging ahead of 2026. He has repeatedly urged candidates to focus on issues like war profiteering tied to the Iran conflict and to promise aggressive oversight if they regain power.

    Whether Carville’s prediction proves accurate remains to be seen. But with early polling suggesting potential Republican vulnerabilities and both parties already bracing for a high-stakes midterm battle, his remarks underscore just how consequential the 2026 elections could be—not only for control of Congress, but for the trajectory of Trump’s presidency itself.

    DeSantis Signs Bill to Rename Florida Airport After Trump

      By

      Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) quietly signed legislation Monday to rename Palm Beach International Airport after President Donald J. Trump — a move that underscores how Trump’s name is being embedded across Florida’s physical and political landscape.

      The measure would rebrand the airport as President Donald J. Trump International Airport, pending administrative follow-through. While the law references Federal Aviation Administration involvement, the FAA has made clear it won’t stand in the way.

      The agency told The New York Times it “does not approve airport name changes,” calling them a local matter, and said its role would be limited to “administrative tasks to include updating navigational charts and databases.”

      If finalized, the new name would take effect July 1, 2026.

      A coordinated push around the Trump brand

      The renaming effort didn’t emerge in isolation. On Feb. 13, 2026, Trump’s family business filed a trademark application covering the airport’s name — along with potential use of the DJT airport code for merchandise.

      The Trump Organization has said Trump and his family will not receive royalties or licensing fees tied to the change. Still, the trademark filing signals a broader effort to formalize and control how the Trump name is used in connection with major infrastructure.

      Palm Beach is already ground zero for Trump’s post-presidency footprint, anchored by Mar-a-Lago just minutes from the airport. The renaming effectively turns a key gateway into a branded extension of that orbit.

      And it fits a longer pattern: Trump’s name has been affixed to hotels, towers, golf courses, and residential properties worldwide — a branding strategy that blends real estate, politics, and personal identity more tightly than any modern U.S. political figure.

      Celebration — and backlash

      Eric Trump quickly celebrated the move on X, writing:

      “Palm Beach International Airport is now officially…. ‘President Donald J. Trump International Airport!’”

      But the decision is already drawing sharp criticism, especially over cost and priorities.

      Politico reported that Florida lawmakers initially set aside $2.75 million for signage, branding, and website updates tied to the change.

      State Rep. Fentrice Driskell, the Florida House Minority Leader, blasted the move:

      “Your money is being misused to celebrate the man who caused gas prices to rise to over four dollars a gallon, grocery costs to shoot up, and health care prices to spike,” she said. “Republicans are out of touch when it comes to the real issues impacting Floridians. The people of Florida did not ask for this. It’s clear Tallahassee Republicans care more about political stunts than they care about your wallet.”

      Not just an airport — a broader legacy play

      The timing is notable.

      The airport news coincided with newly unveiled renderings for Trump’s planned Presidential Library in Miami, a waterfront project designed to cement his legacy in his adopted home state.

      While details are still emerging, the proposed library signals a long-term institutional presence — the kind typically associated with past presidents’ archives and policy centers. Combined with the airport renaming, it points to a coordinated effort to anchor Trump’s post-presidential identity physically across Florida.

      Taken together, the moves suggest something bigger than a naming change: a deliberate expansion of Trump-branded landmarks — from transportation hubs to cultural institutions — concentrated in one state.

      Florida isn’t just where Trump lives.

      It’s increasingly where his legacy is being built in concrete, steel, and signage.

      Report: Pentagon Mulls Deploying Anti-Drone Lasers Near Hegseth, Rubio Homes in DC

      The Pentagon is weighing the deployment of “powerful” anti-drone technology to a Washington, D.C., military installation that houses two top Cabinet officials, according to a report published Tuesday.

      Officials are considering sending a laser-based defense system to Fort Lesley J. McNair, where multiple drones of unknown origin were detected earlier this month, The New York Times reported, citing four people briefed on the discussions. The installation sits less than four miles from the White House and is located within some of the most tightly controlled airspace in the country.

      The proposal, however, faces logistical challenges. The Times noted that deploying such a system over Washington’s high-traffic airspace could complicate efforts, given the risks associated with operating advanced counter-drone technology in a densely populated and heavily regulated flight zone.

      The deliberations follow a series of recent drone incidents that have raised security concerns across multiple U.S. military installations. Earlier this month, unidentified drones were spotted over Fort McNair on at least one night, prompting heightened monitoring and internal discussions about potential responses. The sightings also led officials to consider relocating senior officials who reside at the base, though they ultimately remained in place, according to prior reporting.

      The incidents in Washington are part of a broader pattern of drone activity near sensitive military sites.

      On March 9, personnel at Barksdale Air Force Base in Bossier Parish, Louisiana, were ordered to shelter in place after an unmanned aircraft was observed overhead. Although the order was lifted later that day, additional drone sightings were reported at the base throughout the week.

      Officials have not publicly identified the source of the drones in any of the incidents, and investigations remain ongoing. The recent activity has underscored growing concerns within the Pentagon about the vulnerability of domestic military installations to unmanned aerial systems, particularly as global tensions continue to rise.

      Eric Trump Unveils First Renderings Of Proposed Donald J. Trump Presidential Library

      A newly released animated video is offering the first public look at renderings of former President Donald Trump’s proposed presidential library in downtown Miami, showcasing a waterfront skyscraper and museum complex.

      Trump shared the video on Truth Social early Tuesday, while his son Eric Trump posted it on X with additional details about the project. Eric Trump described the development as a “lasting testament” to his father and his legacy.

      “Over the past six months, I have poured my heart and soul into this project with my incredible team,” Eric Trump wrote. He added that the waterfront landmark would stand as a tribute to “an amazing man, an amazing developer, and the greatest President our Nation has ever known.”

      “These images have never been seen by the public — until today. Enjoy!” he added.

      Eric Trump, who has been leading the project’s development, serves as president of the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Foundation and is one of its trustees.

      The video, set to orchestral music, opens with aerial views of the proposed waterfront site, featuring landscaped grounds with palm-lined walkways, fountains and green space. It then reveals a towering glass structure topped with a spire.

      Renderings show Trump’s name displayed in gold lettering across the building’s facade, along with a large American flag draped down the center. The design includes a presidential aircraft resembling Air Force One on the ground floor, as well as gold escalators reminiscent of Trump Tower in New York City.

      Additional images depict military aircraft displayed inside the complex and a large auditorium-style space featuring a gold statue of Trump, a stage and large digital screens.

      The plans also include replicas tied to Trump’s time in the White House, including the Oval Office, the West Colonnade and a ballroom.

      The proposed library is being designed by Miami-based architecture and engineering firm Bermello Ajamil and would be built on a roughly 2.6-acre waterfront site.

      In late September, Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis and the Florida Cabinet approved transferring the Biscayne Boulevard parcel to the Trump Presidential Library Foundation. The site was briefly tied up in a legal dispute after a federal judge paused the transfer from Miami-Dade College before allowing it to proceed in December.

      The property is currently used as an employee parking lot for Miami-Dade College’s Wolfson Campus and sits next to the historic Freedom Tower, which served as a resource center for Cuban immigrants fleeing communism in the 1960s and 1970s. The 100-year-old building is widely regarded as a symbol of Miami’s immigrant heritage.

      The surrounding area includes luxury high-rise apartments and waterfront views facing the Kaseya Center, home of the NBA’s Miami Heat, as well as Dodge Island, a major cruise port.

      The parcel has been appraised at more than $66 million, according to media reports, though it could sell for at least $360 million, The New York Times reported, citing a real estate consultant.

      Trump’s post also included a link inviting supporters to donate to the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Foundation. Other trustees include Michael Boulos, the husband of Tiffany Trump, and Trump attorney James Kiley.

      Trump carried Miami-Dade County by 13 points, becoming the first Republican to do so since 1988.

      The unveiling comes as former President Barack Obama’s presidential center in Chicago is scheduled to open in June. President Donald Trump was notably left off the guest list for the opening of the Obama Library.

      DOJ To Pay Ex-Trump Adviser Michael Flynn $1M

      The Justice Department has agreed to pay roughly $1.2 million to former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn, settling a lawsuit in which he claimed he was politically targeted during Trump’s first administration, according to ABC News.

      The payout falls far short of the $50 million Flynn initially sought when he filed the lawsuit in 2023. Still, the settlement is likely to raise fresh questions about whether Flynn benefited from his continued loyalty to President Trump.

      A federal judge dismissed Flynn’s case in 2024, siding with a Justice Department motion filed during the Biden administration and ruling that Flynn failed to meet the legal standard for malicious prosecution. After Trump returned to office, however, Flynn’s attorneys moved to revive the case. The department later confirmed in a court filing that it had entered settlement discussions with Flynn’s legal team.

      In a statement, a Justice Department spokesperson framed the agreement as corrective action: “Those who instigated the Russia Collusion Hoax and Crossfire Hurricane abused their power to mislead the American people and tarnish the reputations of President Trump and his supporters. Today’s settlement, secured by this Justice Department, is an important step in redressing that historic injustice.”

      Flynn had previously pleaded guilty to lying to FBI agents during a January 2017 White House interview about his contacts with then-Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak, part of the Mueller investigation.

      In 2020, under Attorney General William Barr, the Trump Justice Department moved to drop the case entirely, sharply criticizing the FBI’s handling of the investigation and arguing the charges should never have been brought. The move drew skepticism from a federal judge in Washington, D.C., who questioned the department’s reasoning. Flynn was ultimately granted a full pardon by Trump after the 2020 election.

      Since leaving government, Flynn has remained closely aligned with Trump’s inner circle and built a large following online, where he has promoted a range of conspiracy-driven claims.

      John Kennedy here. The last fundraising deadline passed — and we came up short. Now the woke crowd is celebrating, saying “Kennedy’s finished.” Let’s prove them wrong. Chip in $25, $50, or whatever you can to close the gap and keep fighting.

      Trump Official Refers New York AG Letitia James For Prosecution – Again

      A senior Trump administration official has made new criminal referrals against New York Attorney General Letitia James.

      Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte said in a letter Wednesday to prosecutors in Florida that James may have falsified information on a homeowner’s insurance application submitted to Fort Lauderdale-based Universal Property Insurance. In a separate letter to prosecutors in Illinois, Pulte alleged that James may have also provided false information on an application to Allstate.

      The referrals mark the latest development in a series of legal actions pursued by officials in President Trump’s administration against James, a longtime political adversary. In a Truth Social post Wednesday night, President Trump wrote that James had been “referred again for criminal prosecution for alleged homeowner insurance fraud.”

      One of the referrals was sent to Jason Reding Quiñones, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida. Quiñones is currently leading an investigation into Obama-era officials, including former CIA Director John Brennan, related to intelligence findings that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election to benefit Trump. Last year, Quiñones also sought records connected to special counsel Jack Smith’s investigations into Trump.

      The second referral was sent to Andrew Boutros, the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois.

      Abbe Lowell, an attorney for James, rejected the allegations and criticized the administration’s actions.

      “abusing their power to pursue a vendetta against her by trying to rename, refile, and repeat baseless allegations.”

      “These desperate tactics will fail — just as every previous attempt has failed — and exposes an Administration that has abandoned its responsibility to the American people in favor of petty political payback,” Lowell said.

      The new referrals follow a previously dismissed federal case against James. Last fall, she was charged in federal court with bank fraud and making false statements to a financial institution, based on allegations that she misrepresented details about a property in Virginia to secure more favorable mortgage terms. James denied wrongdoing, and the charges were later dismissed.

      The earlier indictment came after Pulte referred James for possible mortgage fraud, though the charges ultimately focused on a different property than the one cited in his referral. A federal judge dismissed the case in November, ruling that interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan had been unlawfully appointed. A separate case brought by Halligan against former FBI Director James Comey was also dismissed, and two federal grand juries later declined to re-indict James on bank fraud charges.

      According to the original indictment, James purchased a Virginia home in 2020 using a mortgage that required the property to be used as a second residence, but she allegedly rented it out as an investment property to obtain a lower interest rate.

      James has argued that she is being targeted for political reasons, particularly after she sued Trump in civil court during the period between his presidential terms. A New York judge found Trump and his company liable for fraud and ordered them to pay hundreds of millions of dollars, though an appellate court later overturned the financial judgment.

      In court filings last year, James’s attorneys accused Pulte of using the Federal Housing Finance Agency — which oversees Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac — as a “weapon to be brandished against President Trump’s political enemies.”

      CBS News previously reported that prosecutors have also examined financial transactions between James and her longtime hairdresser, Iyesata Marsh, as part of a separate line of inquiry. Pulte has since sought a protective security detail, citing threats he said were connected to the case.

      Top Trump Admin Official Shares Big Prediction About Energy Prices

      By

      Energy markets could see a sharp reversal if tensions ease in the Middle East, as U.S. officials signal that a diplomatic breakthrough with Iran may be within reach.

      The outlook comes after President Donald Trump said earlier Monday that negotiations with Iran have been “very good and productive,” announcing a five-day pause on planned U.S. strikes against Iranian energy infrastructure to allow talks to continue.

      Against that backdrop, U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright said oil prices could fall significantly if a deal leads to the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global shipping route that has faced disruptions in recent weeks.

      Wright made the comments during an appearance on FOX Business’ “Varney & Co.” with host Lauren Simonetti, emphasizing how closely energy markets are tied to developments in the region.

      “They would go down quite a bit. If we see a pathway to have the Strait of Hormuz open soon and energy flowing again, you’d see energy prices drop pretty significantly,” Wright said.

      Global markets have been reacting to reduced traffic through the strategic waterway, one of the world’s most important energy chokepoints. Even temporary disruptions have driven fuel costs higher for consumers.

      Wright suggested that the trajectory of energy prices will depend largely on whether Iran chooses to de-escalate and engage in negotiations.

      “That could happen if a peace agreement is reached… If Iran thinks enough is enough, and they’re willing to make a deal… Then there’ll be a deal,” Wright said.

      For now, officials caution that short-term volatility is likely to continue as negotiations unfold, though a sustained diplomatic breakthrough could quickly stabilize markets.

      Top Iranian Official Responds To Report He’s Trump’s Secret Negotiating Partner

      A senior Iranian official identified in media reports as a potential backchannel to President Donald Trump has publicly denied any involvement in negotiations with the United States.

      Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, Iran’s parliamentary speaker, rejected the reports after The Jerusalem Post described him as the “top person” Trump had suggested his administration was engaging with behind the scenes.

      In a post on X, Ghalibaf dismissed the claim and accused the U.S. of spreading misinformation.

      “Iranian people demand complete and remorseful punishment of the aggressors. All Iranian officials stand firmly behind their supreme leader and people until this goal is achieved. No negotiations have been held with the US, and fakenews is used to manipulate the financial and oil markets and escape the quagmire in which the US and Israel are trapped.”

      The denial comes amid conflicting signals from Washington about the state of diplomacy. Just hours earlier, Trump said his administration had engaged in “very good and productive conversations” with Iran and announced a five-day pause on planned military strikes targeting Iranian energy infrastructure.

      “I AM PLEASE TO REPORT THAT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND THE COUNTRY OF IRAN, HAVE HAD, OVER THE LAST TWO DAYS, VERY GOOD AND PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS REGARDING A COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION OF OUR HOSTILITIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST,” Trump wrote. “BASED ON THE TENOR AND TONE OF THESE IN DEPTH, DETAILED, AND CONSTRUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS, WITCH WILL CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE WEEK, I HAVE INSTRUCTED THE DEPARTMENT OF WAR TO POSTPONE ANY AND ALL MILITARY STRIKES AGAINST IRANIAN POWER PLANTS AND ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE FOR A FIVE DAY PERIOD, SUBJECT TO THE SUCCESS OF THE ONGOING MEETINGS AND DISCUSSIONS.”

      The pause marked a sharp shift in tone after Trump had warned over the weekend that Iran could face “total decimation” if it failed to comply with U.S. demands regarding the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global shipping route.

      Speaking to reporters before boarding Air Force One, Trump hinted at the existence of a high-level Iranian contact but declined to identify the individual.

      “A top person,” Trump said, offering no further details.

      When asked whether Iran’s newly named supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, was involved, Trump said the U.S. had not heard from him. Khamenei has not appeared publicly since his appointment and is widely believed to be gravely injured.

      “Don’t forget: We’ve wiped out the leadership phase one, phase two and largely phase three. But we’re dealing with a man who I believe is the most respected and the leader, you know it’s a little tough, they’ve wiped out — we’ve wiped out everybody,” Trump added.

      Trump’s claims of active discussions followed his announcement that strikes would be temporarily halted to allow negotiations to continue. However, Iran’s Foreign Ministry has also denied that any talks are taking place, underscoring the uncertainty surrounding the diplomatic track even as tensions remain high following U.S. threats tied to the Strait of Hormuz.
