Senate Homeland Security Chairman Rand Paul supports President Donald Trump's peace negotiations with Iran, noting the deal could benefit American consumers and farmers. Paul believes opening the Strait of Hormuz and verifiable removal of enriched uranium are crucial. He emphasizes that diplomacy is key and the removal of uranium is easily verifiable, potentially through direct assistance from the U.S.

Well isn't THAT special.
There is no effective deal with the Iranian mullahs and their henchmen other than total annihilation. Anything less is just kicking the can down the road.
Oh boy Rand Paul approves! Peace in our time!

If ir's white, wave it around!
“Senate Homeland Security Chairman Rand Paul supports President Donald Trump’s peace negotiations with Iran, noting the deal could benefit American consumers and farmers.” All for it, when do I get a check?
I am completely shocked that they guy who thought the war was a bad idea from the start is now happy that Trump has decided to end it.
Kudos to Trump for realizing the folly of fighting a foreign regime change war against a major power on behalf of another country.
Too bad he forgot that he was saying the same thing back in 2012-2016. I’m glad he is remembering it now.
You must not be MAGA if you don’t support Trump’s withdraw from Iran.
The removal of uranium is what is the problem. Trump has said he’s in no rush to remove it.
Exactly, you’re right on the money. So many are against a ‘deal’ that they haven’t even read yet and don’t even know what all is in it. I for one would like to see a deal if we can verify it and avoid a bigger war that could cost us lives and money. The very last thing I want is troops occupying any parts of Iran. So like you, I’m waiting to see what’s in this ‘deal’ before I spout off about it.
oh I havent heard a peep about any troops. Im just afraid and many are fearful that this “Deal” is basically Obama’s deal but without the dough, that better NOT be it otherwise mind as well have kept the Obama nuclear deal in place and whatever happens, happens. I just want to see the deal, I dont care if Trump wears a bunny suit and reads it word for word, just get it out there already enough secrets
I am MAGA. And have been around long enough to know if you go to war it needs to be total war. Since Korea we have lost every conflict because bureaucrats and pundits especially in the media dictate policy. Kowtowing to them is the surest way to lose. If we are going to risk the lives of our servicemen the outcome needs to be total victory not some half assed truce that ain’t worth the paper it’s printed on.
Rand saw what happened to his KY Buddy, Massie.
The instinct to survive causes people to rethink the path they are on.
It’s been a wake up call to Paul.
I think you’re right....
