  • Nearly 60 Planned Parenthood Facilities Have Shut Down Since Trump Took Office

    (LifeSiteNews) — Nearly 60 Planned Parenthood facilities have shut down since January 2025, according to the pro-abortion Kaiser Family Foundation. While President Donald Trump has not embraced federal protections for all preborn babies, the report suggests his policies have played a role in at least reducing the number of Planned Parenthood locations across the country. “In the spring of 2025, the federal Title X family planning program withheld grant payments to 144 Planned Parenthood sites in 20 states,” the June 8 report stated. The report also cites the Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic Supreme Court decision in June 2025...

    Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., said the chamber aims to pass an extension of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act without including the SAVE America Act. Thune is rebuffing President Donald Trump, who said he opposes any renewal of FISA that does not include the SAVE ​America Act, which would require proof of citizenship for voting. Section 702 of FISA, which allows the U.S. to spy on foreigners overseas without a warrant, lapsed over the weekend, which Thune said is a risk to national security.
  • Trump claims, ‘I never cared about regime change’ in Iran, says its current leaders are ‘strong, smart’

    Continuing his remarks about the US agreement with Iran at the G7 summit, US President Donald Trump claims he “never cared about regime change” as a goal in the US-Israeli campaign against Tehran, while reiterating his belief that the elimination of so many senior officials in the Islamic Republic effectively amounts to regime change. “You talk about regime change. I never cared about regime change. It [was] never a part. But I guess you have regime change because you know better than anybody, the first group, they’re all dead. The second group, they’re dead. A part of the third group...

    U.S. President Donald Trump said Tuesday that America will not invest money in Iran after a Memorandum of Understanding was agreed with Tehran. “We are not investing any money in Iran, by the way, and with that rumor got out there yesterday was ridiculous,” he told reporters on the sidelines of the G7 summit in Evian, France. “We have the right to go in some day and do, if I want to do something, or if somebody wants to do something, but we are not investing any money.” (snip) He appeared to be referring to reports that the terms of...

    CIA Director John Ratcliffe told President Trump and other senior officials that evidence gathered by U.S. intelligence agencies raises serious doubts about Iran's willingness to make the nuclear concessions the U.S. is seeking in any final deal, according to three sources familiar with those discussions. Friction point: Ratcliffe isn't the only skeptic in Trump's top team. In internal discussions, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth both expressed concerns and raised questions about the memorandum of understanding (MOU) announced Sunday, while Vice President Vance and U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner advocated for it, according...

    The Washington Post ^ | June 15, 2026 | Michael Birnbaum
    President Donald Trump declared an end to his campaign against Iran’s leaders with an exhortation on Sunday: “Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow!” With the Iranian regime still in place, he was celebrating a resumption of the way the world was on Feb. 27, the day before the United States and Israel attacked Iran. A return to a version of the status quo was a far cry from the original aims of a war effort that kicked off with a vow to come to the aid of the Iranian protesters who had taken to their...

    Oil prices fell and U.S. stock-index futures jumped Sunday after President Donald Trump said the U.S. has agreed to a peace deal with Iran, apparently ending months of hostilities that shut the Strait of Hormuz and sent the global economy into an oil shock. “The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete,” Trump said in a social-media post late Sunday. “Congratulations to all! I hereby fully authorize the toll free opening of the Strait of Hormuz, and, simultaneously herewith, authorize the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade.

    The main headline of Sunday’s Yediot Aharonot, a popular Hebrew daily, summed up in two words the prevailing sentiment in Israel over President Trump’s emerging cease-fire agreement with Iran: “Bad Deal.” Israel waged two wars against Iran in the past year, the most recent one the campaign launched in late February with U.S. forces. Now Israel, which had not been a party to the Trump administration’s negotiations with Iran, is being left out of the potential peace... Even before the announcement came on Sunday that a cease-fire agreement had been reached, the details that had surfaced in news media reports...

    Israeli officials were left “stunned” by US President Donald Trump’s public criticism of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel’s decision to strike Hezbollah targets in Beirut. They are increasingly concerned that a prospective US-Iran agreement could sharply restrict Israel’s military freedom of action in Lebanon, Channel 12 reports. A senior Israeli official close to Netanyahu tells the Hebrew network that officials in Jerusalem were taken aback by Trump’s remarks, which included accusing the premier of having “no fucking judgement,” saying: “Trump’s statement is a resounding slap in the face. The restrictions [on Israel] have been taken to another level. The...

    On Sunday, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) took to X to announce that a senior Hezbollah commander, one Ali Mussa Daqduq, has had his birth certificate permanently revoked. The planet is now a safer, cleaner place without this guy walking around. The post reads: ELIMINATED: Ali Musa Daqduq, a senior Hezbollah commander who held a series of 5 senior positions within Hezbollah. Daqduq played a central role in advancing terrorist attacks and combat operations against Israel and IDF soldiers. In 2007, he orchestrated the kidnapping and murder of 5 American soldiers.

    While most Democrats are okay with Graham Platner as Maine's next US Senator, potential colleague Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa) has his doubts. This past weekend he expressed his doubts on Fox News' "Saturday in America" show, offering to "ditch my hoody and shorts and wear a suit everyday in the Senate if Platner can prove he didn't send photos of his penis to underage females." Platner called Fetterman's proposed bet "fundamentally unfair. There are millions of females that have seen photos of my penis. How am I supposed to know how old each one of them is? I think the...

    The article cites PUBLIC instances when previous Iranian leaders boasted about cheating on nuclear deals. Why are we trusting them? Because they promised they won't pursue nuclear weapons? Iran signed the NPT in 1968. So they already "promised" this before. In return for giving them billions of dollars in sanctions relief and opening up the Strait of Hormuz to their oil tankers, what, exactly, are they giving up?

    US President Donald Trump knocks Israel for attacking Beirut today and says the IDF should not carry out any more attacks on any part of Lebanon moving forward. “This morning’s attack on Beirut should not have happened, particularly on a special day when we are so close to a peace deal with Iran,” Trump writes on Truth Social, stopping short of definitively declaring that an memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran will actually be signed today. “Israel has the right to defend itself against threats, but the attack it was responding to was very small and meaningless, nobody...
