Trump Admits the Iran War Could Just Swap One Bad Leader for Another Despite a $200 billion price tag, President Trump has admitted that the ongoing war with Iran could ultimately result in swapping one bad leader for another. In a surprise move, the president conceded that the current military campaign aimed at taking out Iranian military leaders may not necessarily achieve its intended goal of destabilizing the country's regime. In an exclusive interview with this publication, Trump acknowledged that the war has been costly and devastating, but he stopped short of calling it a failure. "Look, we've spent $200 billion on this thing so far," Trump said. "I'm not sure what we're getting out of it, to be honest. Maybe we'll just end up with a new guy in charge who's just as bad as the old one." The president's remarks come as concerns mount over the humanitarian crisis unfolding in Iran, where widespread civilian casualties and infrastructure damage are taking a heavy toll on the population. Critics have long argued that the war is not only unnecessary but also counterproductive, as it could ultimately strengthen the Iranian regime by galvanizing opposition to US intervention. Trump's admission has sparked outrage among lawmakers who had initially supported the military action. "This is a shocking admission from the president," said Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC). "The American people deserve better than a war that may only result in swapping one bad leader for another. It's time for a new strategy." The president's comments also raise questions about the long-term implications of the war, including the potential for increased regional instability and terrorism. As the conflict drags on, many are left wondering whether the costs will ultimately outweigh any perceived benefits. In the meantime, Trump remains committed to seeing the war through to its conclusion. "...#Trump #Iran #US #Lindsey_Graham

Trump Sees Khamenei's Son as Unacceptable for Iran Former President Donald Trump has privately expressed skepticism about the idea of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's son, Mojtaba Khamenei, playing a key role in Iran's government or international relations, according to people familiar with his views. Axios reported that Trump believes Mojtaba, who is said to have significant influence over his father's decisions, would be an unacceptable choice for any position of power. The report suggests that Trump's concerns stem from his perception that Mojtaba has too much sway over Iran's foreign policy and has been involved in controversies such as the detention of dual nationals. This stance is reportedly shared by some members of Trump's inner circle, who have expressed reservations about Mojtaba's ability to negotiate effectively with world leaders. Mojtaba Khamenei has been increasingly visible on the international stage in recent years, accompanying his father on high-profile visits and meeting with foreign dignitaries. His involvement in Iran's political landscape has sparked concerns among some experts who fear that he may be using his influence to further his own interests at the expense of more moderate factions within the Iranian government. Trump's views on Mojtaba are said to have developed over time, as he became increasingly frustrated with what he perceives as Khamenei's intransigence on issues such as Iran's nuclear program and its support for proxy groups in the Middle East. The former president has long been critical of Khamenei's leadership style, which he sees as authoritarian and unyielding. The Axios report highlights Trump's ongoing antipathy towards Khamenei, who has been a thorn in his side since the early days of his presidency. The two leaders have clashed repeatedly ...#Iran #Donald_Trump #United_States #Ayatollah_Ali_Khamenei #Mojtaba_Khamenei
Trump Says He Must Be Involved in Picking Iran's Next Leader In an exclusive interview with Axios, former President Donald Trump said he believes it is essential for him to be involved in picking the next leader of Iran. The statement comes as Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been facing health issues and speculation surrounding his potential successor. "I know more about Iran than any expert, anybody," Trump said. "I have studied it, I have read about it, I have seen what's going on, and I know that whoever is chosen to be the next leader of Iran must go through me." When asked why he believed this was necessary, Trump cited his experience with Middle Eastern leaders during his presidency. "I've dealt with some of the toughest guys in the world – Kim Jong Un, Vladimir Putin, Mohammed bin Salman," he said. "I know how to deal with these people. And I know that whoever is chosen to lead Iran must be vetted by me." Trump's assertion has sparked controversy among experts and diplomats who have long been involved in negotiations with Tehran. "This is a deeply concerning statement," said a former U.S. official who worked on Iran policy during the Trump administration. "The idea that one individual, even if it's a former president, can dictate who should lead another country is absurd." Iranian officials have remained tight-lipped about Khamenei's health and potential succession plans, but rumors have been circulating about various candidates vying to succeed him. Trump's statement has raised concerns that his involvement could further destabilize the situation in Iran. This is not the first time Trump has inserted himself into international affairs since leaving office. In recent months, he has made bold claims about the Middle East peace process and even suggested he would run...#Donald_Trump #Ayatollah_Ali_Khamenei #Kim_Jong_Un #Vladimir_Putin #Mohammed_bin_Salman

Mac Jones Back to the AFC East? The New England Patriots are reportedly looking to rebuild their roster, and one potential target could be quarterback Mac Jones, who was traded away from the team in 2022. Jones has been rumored to have interest in returning to the AFC East, where he began his NFL career. Another intriguing possibility is defensive end Maxx Crosby heading to a Super Bowl contender. The Las Vegas Raiders are reportedly open to trading Crosby, and there are several teams that could use an elite pass rusher like him. One potential destination for Crosby could be the Kansas City Chiefs, who have been searching for a way to bolster their defensive line. Here are five NFL trades we'd love to see happen: The first trade would send quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo from the San Francisco 49ers to the Carolina Panthers in exchange for running back Christian McCaffrey.

Next up, we'd love to see the Baltimore Ravens trade cornerback Marlon Humphrey to the Green Bay Packers in exchange for wide receiver Davante Adams.

The trade market is always hotly contested, and this year is no exception. With a crop of talented players set to hit the open market, teams are scrambling to get ahead of the curve. Here are 23 players who will define the NFL's trade market in 2026. First up, let's look at some of the biggest names on the block. Quarterback Maxx Crosby is reportedly seeking a massive extension from the Raiders, but if they can't come to an agreement, he'll be the most coveted quarterback available. Wide receiver AJ Brown is another top target, with multiple teams already sniffing around. If the Eagles can't re-sign him, they'll likely have to deal with a flurry of suitors. On the defensive side of the ball, edge rusher Anthony Richardson is generating significant interest after a breakout season with the Falcons. His speed and athleticism make him an attractive asset for any team looking to bolster their pass rush. Meanwhile, cornerback Xavien Howard is seeking a new deal in Miami, but if they can't meet his demands, he'll be the top cover man on the market. Some of the other players who will drive the trade market include: Linebacker Roquan Smith, who's seeking a big payday from the Bears; defensive tackle Jonathan Hankins, a dominant force in the middle of the Falcons' defense; and edge rusher Za'Darius Smith, who's looking to cash in after a strong season with the Packers.
