Donald Trump said the “12 day war” between Israel and Iran was set to end in a ceasefire, holding out the expected deal as validation for his strategic gamble of ordering U.S. airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites - and said he did not believe Israel and Iran “will ever be shooting at each other again.” “It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE,” Trump posted on social media.

Following the successful air strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities by the United States Military this weekend, President Trump teased the possibility of regime change in Tehran. While Israel has said their main objectives in Iran were to dismantle their nuclear and ballistic missile programs, and if this spurs a change in government there they would be happy with that outcome. Meanwhile, Iran fired missiles at a U.S. Military base in Qatar, but no injuries have been reported. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Behnam Ben Taleblu, Research Fellow at the 'Foundation for the Defense of Democracies' where he focuses on. Iranian security and political issues, who says while Iran has been backed into a corner by the United States and Israel, they will most likely lash out to save face.

On Saturday night, the U.S. military attacked several Iranian nuclear facilities in an attempt to eliminate their potential. Following the announcement, President Trump addressed the nation, boasting the U.S. "obliterated" Iran's nuclear capabilities. Some Americans fear this may drag the United States into an open-ended war. However, the Trump administration rejects those claims. Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Rick Crawford (AR-01) joins the Rundown to discuss what inspired the President to act in a swift, secretive manner while enabling the U.S. military to strike the Iranian nuclear facilities. He shares his hope that the strike will embolden the Iranian people to rise against their repressive regime. President Donald Trump is taking a closer look at infant formula, a topic that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) hasn't thoroughly examined in decades. The last comprehensive review of infant formula was conducted in 1998, over two decades ago. Currently, a new FDA panel is seeking answers regarding childhood diseases, such as obesity and diabetes. Former FDA Commissioner Dr. David Kessler, the author of "Diet, Drugs, and Dopamine: The New Science of Achieving a Healthy Weight," joins to discuss strategies for improving health, the popularity of Ozempic-like drugs, and whether or not food companies are trying to get us addicted to junk food.

Listen to the President just after he received words the bombers were safely out of Iranian air space and hear Marco Rubio set ablaze the left's talking point that there wasn't clear intelligence about the extent of Iran's nuclear enrichment.

On today’s episode of Stinchfield, we expose the disturbing and disgraceful statement from Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna and his department, who offered their “hearts” to the victims of Iran’s bombing campaign—a campaign that was launched by the United States in direct retaliation for Iranian-sponsored terror. Instead of standing with our military, our nation, and the victims of Iran's aggression, Luna's office chose to issue a message of sympathy that reads more like a press release from Tehran than from a U.S. law enforcement agency. Why is the Sheriff of America’s largest county bending over backward to virtue signal for a hostile foreign regime? Why is the LASD mourning terrorists while American families mourn the sons and daughters who risk their lives defending freedom? We break it all down—Luna’s left-wing political ties, the Biden administration’s weak posture in the Middle East, and the broader pattern of Democrat-run institutions apologizing for American strength. This episode is a must-listen for anyone tired of seeing our law enforcement turned into a mouthpiece for globalist, anti-American ideology.

The weekend saw the US launch airstrikes on three Iranian nuclear sites, with Tehran warning of ‘everlasting consequences'. Despite an emergency Cobra meeting and Luke Pollard's morning media round, we are still waiting for an answer on whether the government supports Trump's action. Keir Starmer's assured and confident position on the world stage now looks to be in peril, as he is pulled between Trump, his attorney general and the court of public opinion. Can he de-escalate?Also on the podcast, Nigel Farage delivered a speech this morning in which he announced changes to non-doms and unveiled a new ‘Britannia card' – although most of the questions afterwards centred on the situation in the Middle East.

Israel claims Iran is closer than ever to building a nuclear weapon. But as it targets Iran, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says his nation’s attacks will also “liberate” Iranians.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Times of Israel founding editor David Horovitz joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Horovitz discusses that it isn't clear how much damage has been wreaked on Iranian nuclear facilities by US and Israeli strikes in Iran. He notes the term "obliteration" used by US President Donald Trump and the US Secretary of Defense regarding the Iranian nuclear program and their positioning, alongside the Israeli government, that Iran's nuclear program must be dismantled. Horovitz comments on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's pre-recorded press conference on Sunday, in which he said Iran firing on Israel would not become a new normal, or a war of attrition. The conversation with Horovitz also touches on the geopolitical dynamics involving Russia's relationship with Iran and the impact on Israeli citizens trying to return home amidst the conflict.

On Saturday night, U.S. forces bombed three Iranian nuclear facilities in what the Pentagon termed “Operation Midnight Hammer.” The consequences, which will likely be far-reaching, are only beginning to come into view. Does President Donald Trump want regime change in Iran? How would he square that pursuit with his America First pledges? What will it mean for nuclear talks? What sort of reprisals should we expect from Iran? Will Congress assert its war powers authority? And what does the world look like in the aftermath of the attacks? POLITICO White House reporter Megan Messerly joins Playbook author Jack Blanchard to unpack it all.
In this episode, host Kent Hance discusses recent U.S. military actions against Iran, providing historical context on U.S.-Iran relations and the Iranian revolution. Hance analyzes the effectiveness of a recent bombing operation, contrasts it with the Afghanistan withdrawal, and considers the implications for regional stability and U.S. foreign policy. He also examines Middle Eastern reactions, the importance of operational security, and potential economic effects. The episode blends historical insight with commentary on current events, offering listeners a clear perspective on the complexities of military strategy and diplomacy in the Middle East.
The superbly executed raid on Iranian nuclear sites may have dealt a gut punch to Iran, but that and Israels devastating campaign against Iran also might be the end of the lifeblood and support to it's proxies -- Houthis, Hezbollah, and Hamas. Could Israel be on the path to peace and prosperity, and a time of security as prophesied in Ezekiel 38? In the mean time, the MAGA hating leftists and anti-Americans in the media and Congress are writhing and gnashing their teeth over being left out of Trump's military operational planning, and I love it!

//The Wire//1730Z June 23, 2025////PRIORITY////BLUF: IRANIAN COUNTERATTACK TARGETS US MILITARY BASES IN MIDDLE EAST. SHIPPING CONCERNS MOUNT AS IRAN THREATENS TO TARGET SHIPPING IN STRAIT OF HORMUZ.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE-----Middle East: This morning the kingdom of Qatar closed their airspace to commercial aviation traffic. Separately, both the United States and Britain issued shelter-in-place orders for their citizens. Shortly after these announcements, multiple Iranian ballistic missiles struck US military bases throughout the region. Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar appears to have been successfully targeted to some degree, and impacts were reported at the US Navy base in Bahrain. Reports have emerged indicating unknown bases in Iraq were also targeted by ballistic missiles.Shortly after the missiles were launched, American fighter aircraft were observed scrambling in Saudi Arabia, with a number of sorties being conducted on targets unknown.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: As this is a developing situation, the success of these missile strikes remains unknown until the dust settles. Video evidence indicates that many of the missiles were successfully intercepted, however some made it through to successfully impact their targets. Qatar announced that 100% of the missiles intended for their nation were successfully intercepted, however this remains unconfirmed at this time and Qatari media groups stated that at least three missiles evaded defenses to impact at Al Udeid. No word on casualties from any of the strikes reported so far today.Following the strikes on Iranian facilities over the weekend (and today's retaliatory strikes), tensions have escalated sharply throughout the region. Iranian forces have threatened to "close" the Strait of Hormuz, which traditionally involves the emplacement of sea mines throughout the choke point. There are no indications that IRGCN and/or IRIN vessels have laid any mines just yet. However, some commercial shipping companies that are unwilling to accept the risk have turned around and begun returning to their homeports.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic reporter Lazar Berman and US bureau chief Jacob Magid join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. US President Donald Trump announced early Sunday that the US had carried out a “successful attack” on the Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan nuclear sites in Iran. We learn what was hit and Trump's warnings to Iran about either returning to the negotiating table, or else. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised American strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities early Sunday morning, thanking Trump for bringing “peace through strength.” We discuss the options that are now on the table for Iran as well as the wider implications for the region as the Israel-Iran war continues. Berman speaks about the potential realignment of regional axes with a severely weakened Iran. And finally, Magid weighs in on whether the broader US population is on board with these attacks on Iran -- and why some may hesitate.

//The Wire//1215Z June 22, 2025////IMMEDIATE////BLUF: UNITED STATES CONDUCTS AIRSTRIKES IN IRAN.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE-----Middle East: A few moments ago, President Trump posted a statement on social media, confirming that a series of airstrikes has been carried out at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. In the post, President Trump stated that all of the aircraft involved are out of Iranian airspace, and has insinuated that this is a one-and-done series of attacks.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: As this is a developing situation, no additional details have been provided. President Trump has not yet held a press conference, nor has the White House, so every American is discovering that the United States has struck Iran from a single social media post. A few moments after this announcement, President Trump's account on Truth Social went offline, leading many to wonder if this was some sort of cybersecurity event.Further details are expected to emerge in due time, however right now we have nothing but the post from President Trump's Truth Social account. At this time, Congress has NOT declared war on Iran, however, if the hundreds of aircraft that have been moved into the CENTCOM theater over the past few days are any indication, this is probably not a one-and-done series of attacks. There are simply too many resources spread throughout the Middle East for this to be over just yet.Strategic Indications and Warnings: HFGCS traffic has been elevated over the past few days/weeks, however no extremely concerning EAMs have been detected over the past few hours. Radio chatter on the Russian BearNet is also quiet at this time.This strike lines up with the timing of the B2 Spirit stealth bombers which took off from Whiteman AFB this morning with what was assessed at the time to be a full payload of munitions.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//
A court says President Trump can keep control of the National Guard in Los Angeles, for now. Differences of opinion about whether to join Israel's war against Iran are dividing the MAGA movement, and EU Ministers are seeking a diplomatic solution to the conflict at a meeting with their Iranian counterparts in Geneva.
