Amid Israel Barrage, Iran Signals Urgent Desire to Talk Now

IRAN Calls For Talks As Israeli Strikes ...

With Israel claiming air superiority over Iran's capital city of Tehran, Iran is reportedly sending urgent signals to Israel, U.S. Arab allies, and European officials it wants a ceasefire and a return to diplomacy.

Iran, urging the U.S. not to join Israel's four-day assault, said it is ready to return to nuclear talks and ceasefire with Israel, The Wall Street Journal reported Monday.

"The Iranians know the U.S. is supporting Israel in its defense, and they are sure the U.S. is supporting Israel logistically, but they want guarantees the U.S. won't join the attacks," an Arab official told the Journal.

Israel has claimed its ability to fly planes unabated over Tehran on Monday, though, making Israel's desire to capitulate now unlikely, according to the report.

The officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said top U.S. officials have been in constant communications with Israeli officials in the days since Israel launched a massive attack on Iran in a bid to halt its nuclear program.

Get nukes out of Iran': Israeli ...

Israeli President Isaac Herzog told Fox News’ ‘America’s Newsroom’ Monday that “All I say is to the world, if you want to deescalate, get the G------ nukes out of Tehran’s hands.”

“And bring a new change, bring a new direction. Bring a different direction for the day after. We should think about the day after and I am confident and I trust the administration, the U.S. administration for moving forward with plans. But for that we all have to show unanimity in our cause and objective to make sure that Iran does not have nuclear weapons,” Herzog said.

The Israeli president told Fox News that Operation Rising Lion “prevents Iran from being on the doorstep of Europe with a huge nuclear program.”

  • Israel launched "Operation Rising Lion" last week, destroying top military leaders and nuclear facilities in Iran.
    Iran's retaliatory airstrikes targeting Israel have left at least 24 dead.

According to video evidence released on social media by Ukraine's Unmanned System Forces Command, Ukrainian forces have successfully annihilated a high-value Russian air defense system.

CBS Poll Reveals Approval for Mass Deportations

CBS News poll — Trump has positive ...

Public opinion on President Trump’s immigration policies has shifted, with a CBS News poll indicating that 54% of Americans support his mass deportation efforts. Additionally, 51% have backed ICE actions within their communities. CNN's Harry Enten noted that Trump's approval rating on immigration has jumped by 20 points since 2017.

Support for Trump’s policies has grown among those impacted by the recent riots in Los Angeles, where unrest has resulted in arson and vandalism. In response, Trump deployed 2,000 National Guard troops to support local law enforcement.

Enten said, “There is no issue on which Trump is doing so much better than he was in his first term more than the issue of immigration.”



Suspected Minnesota assassin Vance Boelter also allegedly killed state rep’s beloved rescue dog in grisly murder

New York Post | Billionaire businessman ...

The gunman who shot and killed Minnesota state lawmaker Melissa Hortman and her husband at their home also killed their family’s beloved rescue dog, according to a fellow lawmaker.

The Democratic former House speaker, 55, and her husband, Mark, 58, were gunned down early Saturday allegedly by suspected political assassin Vance Luther Boelter, who also wounded state Sen. John Hoffman and his wife before he was finally captured Sunday following an intense, 43-hour manhunt.

Boelter also allegedly shot the family’s beloved golden retriever, Gilbert, at the Brooklyn Park home.




Opinion: LA riot coverage shows the media’s Biden ‘miss’ wasn’t a miss at all — they just lie


If you still need proof that the media never intended to tell you the truth about former President Joe Biden’s physical and mental decline, look no further than their coverage of the riots in Los Angeles.

These people have no problem lying right to your face — insisting that you doubt the evidence before your own eyes and instead believe their preferred version of events.

There is plenty of photo and video evidence showcasing the violent unrest in Los Angeles — everything from cars set ablaze to rioters hurling chunks of concrete at law enforcement officers and their vehicles.

An unlawful assembly was declared within hours of when the violence first broke out way back on June 6 — more than a week ago, when the rioters and arsonists initially clashed with federal officers. City law enforcement officials deployed tear gas and other crowd control methods that evening in an attempt to disperse the mob. Not long afterward, Los Angeles issued a citywide tactical alert, alerting the city’s officers of an all-hands event.



Miranda Devine: Army’s 250th anniversary parade was a celebration of America — unlike foolish ‘No Kings’ protests


The weekend’s grand military parade in Washington to celebrate the Army’s 250th anniversary was a feel-good patriotic triumph and a rebuke to Democrats and their mean-spirited, small-minded anti-Trump protests.

America has the mightiest army in the world. It’s something to be proud and patriotic about. Why not celebrate?

And what a show it was, with uniforms dating back to the Revolutionary War, 6,600 soldiers, 150 vehicles and 50 helicopters participating, not to mention a robot dog and drones.

The parade was a display of pride in our troops and their awesome weaponry, but importantly, it also stood as a warning to our adversaries at a time of global peril, amid the specter of war in Iran.
