Senator Graham on Trump:

If Trump can bring down Cuba, Venezuela, and Iran in 2026, that will be something bigger than Reagan.

Senator Graham on Iran:

People say they don’t want regime change — well, you’re crazy.

If you want this regime to survive, then you need to do some soul-searching.

Senator Lindsey Graham reportedly called Danish PM Mette Frederiksen a “little lady” during a heated discussion about Greenland, with sources describing a combative, profanity-filled exchange.

Trump on Iran negotiations:

I would think that would be enough time.

10, 15 days, pretty much maximum.

Trump:

I would like to have China and Russia on the Board of Peace.

They have been invited.

Reporter: Obama said that aliens are real. Have you seen any evidence of non-human visitors to Earth?

Trump: He gave classified information. He’s not supposed to be doing that.

Reporter: So aliens are real?

Trump: I don’t know if they’re real or not. He made a big mistake.

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Iran:

The Americans and Iranians have started talking again. There are many reasons to be hopeful.

Hopefully, a result will be reached, especially regarding the nuclear file.

On the other hand, we observe that military activity has also increased.

Is this activity intended to pressure the ongoing negotiations, or is it preparation for a pre-decided military operation?

We are monitoring this closely.

Our wish is for the parties to reach a negotiated settlement without the need for military operations or war.

We are at that exact critical threshold right now.

Dr. Hans-Georg Maaßen at AfD event:

I do not believe that we need a chainsaw like Milei in Argentina. We need a pressure washer. We will pressure-wash Germany. We will clean things up.

We will rid Germany of this ideology. We will de-ideologize Germany, we will de-gender Germany, we will de-globalize Germany.

We will de-bureaucratize Germany, and we will free ourselves from these anti-German forces and from this climate sect that has us in its grip.

We will send them where they belong — into their fictional climate hell that they dream about, or rather have nightmares about — but they should leave us alone.

I am convinced that we will put Germany back on its feet.

NOTE: Maaßen was the former president of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) from 2012 to 2018.

Türkiye condemned Greece’s new gas exploration deal south of Crete with a Chevron-led consortium, calling it unlawful and a breach of a 2019 Türkiye-Libya maritime agreement.

Ankara said the activity violates Libya’s declared maritime jurisdiction and pledged support for Tripoli.

Italy's Meloni on Iran:

On the one hand, we must ensure that Iran does not acquire nuclear weapons — we know the risks involved.

On the other hand, at this stage it is important to reach an agreement and avoid actions that could further destabilize an already fragile situation.

Italy's Meloni on Ukraine:

We are still very far from resolving the main issue, namely the territories over which Russia continues to assert claims that I consider absolutely unreasonable.

BIG: Trump is considering a limited military strike on Iran to pressure Tehran into accepting a nuclear deal.

The initial plan would target a small number of military or government sites, with broader attacks possible if Iran refuses to curb its nuclear program.

Trump:

You’re gonna be so tired of winning, you’re gonna be exhausted. You’re gonna—you’re gonna get tired of winning.

Remember I say, Somebody’s gonna come up and say, “President, President, please, we’re winning too much. We’re not used to it. Georgia’s not used to it—we can’t take it anymore. People are working too hard, they’re making too much money. Please, please, we don’t want to win anymore, sir, it’s too much.”

I said, “Nope, we’re gonna keep on winning. The people of Georgia want to win.

Trump:

The Democrats don't want to give us voter ID because they want to cheat.

Trump mocks Macron again:

I said, “Emmanuel, you’re gonna have to lift your (drug) price by double or triple.”

“No way, I will not do that, Donald. Why would I do that? I would be out of business.”

I said, “No, you’re gonna do it, 100%.”

“No, no, no, I will not do that. I will not do that!”

“Yes, you will. YOU’RE GONNA DO IT!”

And he said, “No, no…”

And I said, “Here’s the story: If you don’t do it, I’m gonna put a 100% tariff on all of the wine and champagne that you sell into the United States.”

And you know what he said? “I will do it! I will gladly do it!”

Trump:

Based on the tremendous interest shown, I will be directing the Secretary of War, and other relevant Departments and Agencies, to begin the process of identifying and releasing Government files related to alien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs), and any and all other information connected to these highly complex, but extremely interesting and important, matters. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
