Usha Vance Addresses Possibility Of Becoming First Lady In 2028

Second Lady Usha Vance is taking it day by day.

During a recent interview, the second lady responded to speculation her husband, JD Vance, is angling to be the next Republican presidential nominee.

“People do ask about it,” Usha Vance told Meghan McCain on her podcast “Citizen McCain.”

While she acknowledged the possibility of her husband, Vice President JD Vance, running for president, Usha Vance emphasized that she moved into the Washington area with “no intention whatsoever” of considering his political future. However, she pointed out that she also had no intention of being involved in politics four years ago.

For now, Usha Vance said she is focused on the present, though she did not completely dismiss the idea.

“My attitude is that this is a four-year period where I have a set of responsibilities to my family, to myself, to obviously the country and that’s really what I’m focused on,” Usha Vance said. “I’m not plotting out next steps or really trying for anything after this.”

She continued, “In a dream world, eventually I’ll be able to live in my home and kind of continue my career and all those sorts of things. And if that happens in four years, I understand. If that happens in some other point in the future, I understand. Just sort of along for the ride and enjoying it while I can.”

As vice president, Vance is considered the political frontrunner to be the Republican nominee for president in 2028.

“I really am just not focused on politics. I’m not focused on the midterm elections in 2026, much less the presidential election in 2028. When we get to that point, I’ll talk to the president. We’ll figure out what we want to do,” Vance told Lawrence Jones in a “Fox & Friends” exclusive interview in April.

In March, Tucker Carlson, co-founder of the Daily Caller News Foundation, forecasted that Vice President JD Vance will emerge as the Republican Party’s presidential nominee in 2028. Carlson’s statement, made on the “VINCE” podcast, sheds light on the increasing influence of Vance within the party and the likelihood of him becoming the successor to Donald Trump’s political legacy.

Despite Donald Trump declining to endorse Vance during a February Fox News interview, where he stated there were “a lot of very capable people” in the Republican Party, Carlson is optimistic that the former president will ultimately support the vice president in 2028. Trump’s comment, which may have seemed like a rejection to some, was interpreted by Carlson as a temporary stance, not a definitive end to any future support.

“I think people want to leave a legacy, all of us do, and great men especially do. And the only person in the entire Republican Party from my position who’s capable of carrying on the Trump legacy and expanding it, making it what it should fully be, is JD Vance,” Carlson explained. He also praised Vance’s loyalty to Trump and his profound service, indicating that Trump’s current withholding of endorsement may have been a strategic decision.

Rosie O’Donnell Demands ‘Recount’ Months After Trump’s 2024 Landslide Victory

    Comedian and longtime critic of Donald Trump, Rosie O’Donnell, promoted a demand for a “recount” of the 2024 presidential election, despite President Trump’s historic victory over former Vice President Kamala Harris.

    In a post shared to her Instagram Story, O’Donnell amplified a message from influencer Joe Braxton, who alleged that Tesla and X CEO Elon Musk had somehow “hacked and stole the election.” The post claimed Musk manipulated the results and later covered his tracks by deleting evidence and purging those who could expose the alleged scheme through his DOGE efforts.

    The claim directly contradicts certified results and independent audits showing that Trump won both the popular vote and all key battleground states, securing an overwhelming victory, especially as the first Republican to win the popular vote in 20 years.

    O’Donnell’s amplification of the recount call has drawn attention not only for its baselessness, but also for its irony.

    For years, the comedian accused Trump and his supporters of denying the 2020 election results. But now, after Trump decisively defeated Kamala Harris in 2024, it’s O’Donnell herself who appears to be indulging in election denial — something she once vehemently opposed.

    Political commentators online were quick to note the reversal. “Rosie O’Donnell is now the election denier,” one user wrote. “She’s become the very thing she once mocked.”

    This isn’t the first time O’Donnell has claimed election interference without evidence. In a widely criticized outburst last month, she claimed that Trump had repeatedly “admitted” the elections were rigged and expressed disbelief that “no one does anything about it.”

    Observers were quick to point out that Trump was referring to the 2020 election — not the one he just won. The confusion further fueled criticism that O’Donnell’s political commentary has become increasingly erratic and detached from facts.

    Since Trump returned to the White House in January 2025, O’Donnell has been a loud opponent of his second-term agenda. She recently claimed that the GOP’s signature tax reform and spending bill — dubbed the “Big, Beautiful Bill” by Trump — would lead to mass suffering.

    “Millions of people are going to go hungry. Millions of people are going to die,” O’Donnell said during a recent video tirade, offering no evidence for the dramatic claim.

    Musk, who acquired X (formerly Twitter) and has become a polarizing public figure in politics, has not been linked to any election irregularities. Federal and state election officials have found no credible evidence of statistically significant fraud favoring Trump in the 2024 election.

    Adding to the controversy surrounding her public image, O’Donnell also recently appeared in HBO’s Sex and the City reboot, And Just Like That…, where she played a lesbian nun who has a one-night stand with Miranda Hobbes, portrayed by Cynthia Nixon. The storyline was widely condemned by Catholic groups and religious leaders, who labeled it sacrilegious, offensive, and “deliberately provocative.”

    This Trump Cabinet Member Is On ‘Thin Ice’

    The tides are turning against this Trump Cabinet member…

    Michael Wolff, the Trump biographer who has long studied the president, revealed on The Daily Beast Podcast this week that the Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is getting increasingly close to being fired.

    Over the weekend, the U.S. launched an attack on three nuclear enrichment sites in Iran. Despite Trump’s declared victory, however, early intelligence assessments suggest that the strikes did not destroy the facilities at all.

    “It’s always important in the Trump script, the fallback is always who to blame, who to blame,” Wolff told The Daily Beast’s Joanna Coles. “Just have to have someone to blame. Tulsi is in the line of fire.”

    To Trump, he added, she is a “stooge” at this point.

    Reports of the still-existent nuclear sites are at odds with Trump’s repeated claims that the strikes “completely and totally obliterated” the facilities.

    Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told CNN: “This alleged assessment is flat-out wrong and was classified as ‘top secret’ but was still leaked to CNN by an anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community.”

    But now that the assessment is available for the public to judge for themselves, Wolff said that Trump is in search of someone to throw under the bus.

    “There is an investigation that is going on,“ said Wolff. ”They will try to find someone to blame. Within the White House, within the West Wing, what they are saying as of this morning, who this is being pinned on, is Tulsi.”

    White House staff have confirmed that the leak is already being investigated.

    “President Trump’s Peace through Strength foreign policy is a tried-and-true approach that keeps America safe and deters global threats,” White House Communications Director Steven Cheung told the Daily Beast in a statement. “Efforts by the legacy media to sow internal division are a distraction that will not work. President Trump has full confidence in his entire exceptional national security team. DNI Gabbard is an important member of the President’s team and her work continues to serve him and this country well.”

    Watch:

    Gabbard was awkwardly snubbed by President Donald Trump this week after he dismissed her Congressional testimony that countered the administration’s justification for bombing Iran.

    “The intelligence community continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme Leader Khomeini has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003,” she said in March.

    But this month, Trump publicly slammed Gabbard when her comments resurfaced.

    “I don’t care what she said,” Trump said of Gabbard’s comments. “I think they were very close to having them.”

    Trump later doubled down, telling reporters that Gabbard was “wrong” about the issue.

    Gabbard bowed down to Trump’s assertions, quickly posting on X that the “dishonest media is intentionally taking my testimony out of context and spreading fake news as a way to manufacture division.”

    Rubio Cracks Up At Trump’s Reaction To NATO leader Calling President ‘Daddy’

      Secretary of State Marco Rubio couldn’t keep it together when Donald Trump gave his reaction to NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte calling the commander in chief “daddy” earlier Wednesday. 

      During their bilateral meeting in The Hague, Netherlands, Trump discussed the U.S.’ role in brokering a fragile ceasefire between Israel and Iran, saying both countries were like “two kids in a school yard” who “fight like hell” for a short time before “it’s easier to stop them.” 

      Rutte interjected, “Then daddy has to sometimes use strong language.” 

      Trump had used profanity in front of reporters outside the White House before boarding Marine One on Tuesday, saying about Israel and Iran that they “have been fighting so long and so hard that they don’t know what the f— they’re doing. ” 

      At a subsequent press conference Wednesday, Rubio broke into hysterics when a reporter from Sky News asked Trump about the remark. 

      The reporter reminded Trump that Rutte, “who is your friend.… He called you daddy.” 

      “Do you regard your NATO allies as kind of children?” the reporter asked. 

      Trump responded lightheartedly, and Rubio could be seen standing next to him starting to smile and laugh. “No, he likes me. I think he likes me. If he doesn’t, I’ll let you know. I’ll come back, and I’ll hit him hard. Okay?” Trump said jokingly. 

      “He did. He did it. Very affectionate,” Trump added of Rutte. “‘Daddy, You’re my daddy.'” 

      Watch:

      NATO leaders on Wednesday committed that the member states would contribute 5% of GDP annually to defense and security obligations by 2035. 

      “You’re obviously appreciative of that,” the reporter said. “But do you hope that actually they’re going to be able to defend themselves, defend Europe on their own?” 

      “I think they’ll need help a little bit at the beginning, and I think they’ll be able to,” Trump said. “I think they’re going to remember this day and this is a big day for NATO. You know, this was a very big day.” 

      “It’s been sort of an amazing day for a lot of reasons, but also for that,” Trump added, referencing how the greater contributions were decades in the making. Trump claimed it was not possible until he came along.

      Special Envoy Steve Witkoff Accuses CNN’s Anonymous Sources of ‘Treason’

      U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff accused several anonymous CNN sources of “treason” on Tuesday.

      In an exclusive report from CNN, three sources briefed on intelligence of the operation claimed that the damage done to Iran’s nuclear program “likely only set it back by months” despite Trump’s claims to have “completely and totally obliterated” it by U.S. bombing.

      “This leaked intel assessment, it’s an early look at what was actually accomplished on the ground,” said Fox News host Laura Ingraham during an interview with Witkoff. “But it was leaked. Somebody decided to leak this from the DIA and it’s being used in the media, and it’s all over today, that, ‘Aha, Trump said it obliterated, but it’s not obliterated. It’s set back months, but it’s not over.’”

      Witkoff replied, “Well, it goes without saying that leaking that type of information, whatever the information, whatever site it comes out on, is outrageous. It’s treasonous. So it ought to be investigated, and whoever did it, whoever’s responsible for it should be held accountable.”

      He concluded, “It could hurt lives in the future. This leaking is a completely unacceptable thing.”

      CNN spoke to seven anonymous sources in total, who described the Defense Intelligence Agency’s (DIA) assessment of the Trump administration’s strikes. Two of the sources “said Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium was not destroyed,” according to the CNN report, while “one of the people said the centrifuges are largely ‘intact.’”

      “Another source said that the intelligence assessed enriched uranium was moved out of the sites prior to the US strikes,” CNN reported.

      White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth lashed out at CNN’s report, calling it “flat-out wrong.”

      “This alleged assessment is flat-out wrong and was classified as ‘top secret’ but was still leaked to CNN by an anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community,” Leavitt said. “The leaking of this alleged assessment is a clear attempt to demean President Trump, and discredit the brave fighter pilots who conducted a perfectly executed mission to obliterate Iran’s nuclear program. Everyone knows what happens when you drop fourteen 30,000 pound bombs perfectly on their targets: total obliteration.”

      While Leavitt tried to pin the leak on a single source, CNN — in its report — cited “three people briefed” on the U.S. intelligence assessment.

      Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, in a separate statement, likewise claimed the sites were leveled in the blasts:

      Based on everything we have seen and I’ve seen it all, our bombing campaign obliterated Iran’s ability to create nuclear weapons. Our massive bombs hit exactly the right spot at each target and worked perfectly. The impact of those bombs is buried under a mountain of rubble in Iran. So anyone who says the bombs were not devastating is just trying to undermine the president and the successful mission.

      In a statement to Mediaite, a CNN spokesperson said, “CNN stands by our thorough reporting on an early intelligence assessment of the recent strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, which has since been confirmed by other news organizations. The White House has acknowledged the existence of the assessment, and their statement is included in our story.”

      Conservative Pundit Candace Owens Says She’s Embarrassed She Supported Trump

      The MAGA base is split over President Trump’s recent foreign policy moves…

      Popular conservative pundit Candace Owens said she’s “embarrassed” she supported Donald Trump in the 2024 election following his decision to bomb multiple nuclear facilities in Iran.

      “This is not the candidate that I voted for,” Owens told Morgan in a wide-ranging interview on his YouTube show Piers Morgan Uncensored.

      Owens has long been a supporter of the president and was among the many prominent media supporters that urged Trump to stay out of the conflict. This faction of the MAGA movement noted that Trump campaigned on extracting the United States from foreign conflicts, and clashed with pro-war supporters of the president like Laura Loomer, who recently dubbed Owens, “Tehran Candy.”

      “It’s all of the same rhetoric dating back to 9/11. All of the same tactic trying to smear people who are against this war as ‘jihadists,’” Owens told Morgan, arguing that conflict between Israel and Iran was “simply not our business.”

      “There was no imminent threat to the United States when Trump made this decision to do what Bibi wanted,” Owens said, referring to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “This was not Trump’s decision it was Bibi Netanyahu’s decision. And that is the reason that he did it. We’re very aware that Israel is dictating our foreign policy, and we’d now like that to stop.”

      Owens, who first voiced opposition to the United States’ potential bombing last week, said she now sees her support of Trump in a different light.

      “He’s been a chronic disappointment,” said Owens. “And I feel embarrassed that I told people to go vote for him because this wasn’t going to happen and it is happening.”

      Owens said there was “no imminent threat” to the United States while slamming Trump’s Sunday strikes. However, Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, and others have alleged that Iran was nowhere near obtaining nuclear weapon capability, which the president adamantly denied.

      “I don’t care what she said. I think they were very close to having one,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One on Tuesday.

      Watch:

      Other well-known voices within the MAGA base have also criticized the President’s recent move against Iran.

      Republican firebrand Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) engaged in an explosive argument with Fox News host Mark Levin online which eventually spilled over to another interview on One America News.

      Speaking to OAN’s The Matt Gaetz Show, Greene stepped up the MAGA civil war by laying into Levin and questioning his support for President Donald Trump.

      The two conservatives have clashed over Levin’s support Trump’s bombing of Iranian nuclear sites, while Greene has opposed it. She told CNN on Monday: “I got elected on the exact same campaign promises that President Trump got elected on. We promised: no more foreign wars, no more regime change.”

      Earlier in the day, she wrote in a lengthy post on X that Trump’s decision to authorize US strikes on Iranian nuclear sites over the weekend “feels like a complete bait and switch” on the MAGA agenda.

      Tucker Carlson Claims Murdochs Asked Him To Run Against Trump

      Conservative pundit Tucker Carlson says the Murdoch family empire, which owns Fox News along with The Wall Street Journal and a number of other international media properties, urged him to run for president against President Trump in the 2024 election.

      “The Murdochs really hate Trump,” Carlson said during a recent episode of his online commentary and interview show. “I got fired in April of 2023. In May of 2023, they asked me to run for president against Trump and said they would back me.”

      Carlson, as he has done before, seemingly scoffed at the idea of a run for president, saying, “I’d never get elected, plus I like Trump.”

      The pundit, who has criticized Trump in recent days for his posture toward the Middle East, conceded he was “frustrated” with the president but still holds him in high regard.

      Carlson claimed Lachlan Murdoch, the eldest son of media mogul Rupert Murdoch, urged the pundit to run against Trump weeks after the network ousted him, and suggested he offered support through Fox, the Journal and other major media properties owned and controlled by the family.

      Last week in a newsletter, Carlson accused Trump of being “complicit” in Israel’s strikes against Iran that sparked the current days-long exchange between the two Middle Eastern powers. The newsletter arrived in the inboxes of Carlson’s readers under the headline: “This Could Be the Final Newsletter Before All-Out War.”

      Trump responded to Carlson’s criticisms while attending the Group of Seven Summit in Canada.

      “Somebody please explain to kooky Tucker Carlson that, ‘IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON!’” Trump posted on Truth Social

      Carlson launched his own media company following his ouster from Fox News. Since its launch in 2023, Carlson has used his newsletter as a perch to interview and criticise top lawmakers and newsmakers, including the president.

      House Overwhelmingly Votes To Sink Trump Impeachment Effort

      The House on Tuesday overwhelmingly voted to quash an effort by Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) to impeach President Trump over the U.S. strikes on Iran.

      The chamber voted 344-79 to table Green’s resolution, which charges Trump with abuse of power. One hundred-twenty eight Democrats voted with Republicans to table the measure.

      Green has sought for months to trigger a vote on impeaching Trump, slamming his handling of foreign and domestic policy issues.

      The congressman on Tuesday reupped that effort, filing a resolution accusing Trump of failing to seek authorization from Congress before striking three sites in Iran over the weekend, which Democrats have taken issue with.

      “In his conduct of the office of President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, abused the powers of the presidency when he disregarded the doctrine of separation of powers by usurping Congress’s power to declare war and ordered the United States military to bomb another country without the constitutionally mandated congressional authorization or notice to Congress — cognizant of the fact that should another country’s military bomb a facility within the United States of America, it would be a de facto declaration of war against the United States of America,” the impeachment resolution reads.

      Marjorie Taylor Greene Stirs GOP Infighting With Latest Attack On ‘Screeching’ Fox News Host

      It’s a war of words…

      Republican firebrand Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) engaged in an explosive argument with Fox News host Mark Levin online which eventually spilled over to another interview on One America News.

      Speaking to OAN’s The Matt Gaetz Show, Greene stepped up the MAGA civil war by laying into Levin and questioning his support for President Donald Trump.

      The two conservatives have clashed over Levin’s support Trump’s bombing of Iranian nuclear sites, while Greene has opposed it. She told CNN on Monday: “I got elected on the exact same campaign promises that President Trump got elected on. We promised: no more foreign wars, no more regime change.”

      Earlier in the day, she wrote in a lengthy post on X that Trump’s decision to authorize US strikes on Iranian nuclear sites over the weekend “feels like a complete bait and switch” on the MAGA agenda.

      Greene was asked if Trump risks alienating his MAGA base to which the Republican lawmaker acknowledged a “very big divide” among Republican voters, noting younger generations are more “skeptical.”

      “We’ve been lied to too many times, and I think it’s right to be skeptical,” she said.

      The Fox News host has also been taking shots at Greene on his X account, including one from earlier this month that read, “Who died and named Marjorie Taylor Greene the queen of MAGA?… You’re a little known politician from Georgia. Hate to break the news to you. We’re Team Trump. Go Trump!”

      On Monday, Greene told Gaetz, “I can’t believe that Fox News allows one of their hosts to go around and call me names on his social media. That is so unprofessional and it really speaks to what kind of media company Fox News is.”

      “Mark Levin, obviously, he was a NeverTrumper from the beginning,” she said. “He hated Donald Trump. He was totally against him and tried to stop him from becoming president, but yet now somehow Mark Levin is the voice of MAGA?”

      She continued, “I don’t think so, Matt. You and I, Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, all of us have been fighting hard to stay on these America-first policies and stay out of foreign wars. We’re MAGA, we’re the voice of MAGA, and the people totally agree with us.”

      The Georgia lawmaker then attacked Levin’s speaking voice and ratings.

      “It doesn’t matter what Mark Levin actually has to say. People don’t watch his show. I don’t know anyone that watches his show, and his screeching is absolutely unbearable, but I think Fox News needs to reel him in, although I won’t expect much out of them.”

      Greene also criticised Fox’s ongoing coverage of the Middle East conflict.

      Levin responded to Greene’s comments on his own radio show on Monday. “Marjorie Taylor Greene has to be one of the dumbest people that ever served in the House of Representatives. The stupidity that comes out of that woman’s mouth is hard to imagine,” he said.

      He then continued to double down on X account on Monday: “MTG, God are you stupid,” he wrote. “And you keep banging your head against the wall. Thankfully, POTUS ignored you and hit the Iranian nuclear sites. You seem very upset about it. I’m not going away. You’re on my radar.”

      In an earlier spat on X on Monday, the pair had argued over their opposing thoughts on the bombing of Iran.

      As the pair exchanged posts, Levin hit back to Greene, “You should come out from under your rock more often. The fact that you say you don’t know anyone who was killed by Iran is a damnable and contemptible libel to say about those who have died at their hands. As if they never existed. They have names. They have families.”

      He concluded, “You can post as many one-liners as your small brain produces, but it doesn’t change the fact that you’re despicable.”

      I AM PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP. YOU are the reason we saved America. Now I’m asking you to make a small sustaining contribution — so we can finish what we started and COMPLETE the MAGA agenda. Can I count on your support today?

      GOP Senator Guarantees Trump ‘Is Going To Win The Nobel Peace Prize’

      A Republican Senator says President Trump deserves to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in de-escalating the conflict between Israel and Iran.

      Appearing on Hannity Monday night, Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) guaranteed that the Nobel is going to Trump following his announcement of a ceasefire deal between Israel and Iran.

      “President Trump is going to win the Nobel Peace Prize, no doubt!” Britt said. “You look at what he’s done with the Congo and Rwanda. You look where he is with Pakistan and India and what he has done there. And then you look at this — what everyone talked about but no one thought was possible. He has brought peace to a region that needed stability. He has shown what America first policy actually is.”

      Earlier in the show, Britt’s GOP colleague, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) likewise praised Trump — but also allowed for the possibility that the agreement could collapse.

      “If the ceasefire is genuine and will lead to peace, it is a major league accomplishment,” Graham said. “If the ceasefire is used to rearm and regroup by Iran, we’ve gone backwards.”

      Britt, though, saw no need to hedge.

      “We need a president who is unafraid to act and that stands firmly with the American citizens,” Britt said. “That’s what we saw today. And look, Democrats don’t know what to say. I mean, their silence has never been louder, if you know what I mean. And I think it’s because President Trump just keeps winning! And they don’t what to do.”

      Rep. Buddy Carter (R-Ga.) wrote to the Nobel Peace Prize Committee, declaring Trump had an “extraordinary and historic role” in having ended “the armed conflict between Israel and Iran and preventing the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism from obtaining the most lethal weapon on the planet.”

      “President Trump’s influence was instrumental in forging a swift agreement that many believed to be impossible. President Trump also took bold, decisive actions to halt Iran’s nuclear ambitions and ensure that the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism remains incapable of acquiring a nuclear weapon,” Carter wrote in his letter.

      He said Trump’s leadership through the crisis “exemplifies the very ideals that the Nobel Peace Prize seeks to recognize: the pursuit of peace, the prevention of war, and the advancement of international harmony. In a region plagued by historical animosity and political volatility, such a breakthrough demands both courage and clarity.”

      According to the Nobel Prize website, there have been 338 candidates nominated for the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize so far.

      Watch:

      Trump announced a ceasefire between Israel and Iran on Monday night, dubbing the conflict a “12-day war.”

      A senior Israeli official told Fox News on Tuesday that Iran had launched two missiles toward Israel following the announcement of the ceasefire, “and we believe they are trying to fire more in the next couple of hours.”

      “Unfortunately, the Iranians have decided to continue to fire toward Israel,” the official said to Fox News Chief Foreign Correspondent Trey Yingst after Trump unveiled the deal Monday.

      “Now we will have to retaliate, this will happen of course,” the official added. “It could end within several hours, but they [the Iranians] need to make a decision.” 

      The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday that the Israel Defense Forces carried out a small airstrike on Iranian radar equipment before backing down from further attacks. 

      “At 7:06 a.m., Iran launched one missile toward Israeli territory, and at 10:25 a.m., two more missiles. The missiles were intercepted or landed in open areas without causing casualties or damage,” the office said. “In response to Iran’s violations, the Israeli Air Force destroyed a radar array near Tehran. Following President Trump’s conversation with Prime Minister Netanyahu, Israel refrained from further strikes.” 

      “In the call, President Trump expressed his deep appreciation for Israel — which achieved all the objectives of the war. He also expressed his confidence in the stability of the ceasefire,” the office added.
