Trump demands REGIME CHANGE to ‘Make Iran Great Again’ | Defies his own Defence Secy on Iran plans

Donald Trump has once again hinted at regime change in Iran, posting “Why wouldn’t there be a regime change???”—contradicting top U.S. officials who deny such intentions. While VP J.D. Vance and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stress the goal is to neutralize nuclear threats, Trump pitches “MIGA – Make Iran Great Again.” The mixed signals have exposed sharp divisions within the Republican Party and raised global concerns about America’s true objectives amid the escalating Iran-Israel conflict. #Trump #RegimeChange #IranCrisis #MIGA #IranPolicy #TrumpVsTeam #USIranTensions #GOPDivide #MiddleEastConflict #NuclearThreat #TrumpStatement #AyatollahKhamenei #MidnightHammer #USForeignPolicy #JDVance #PeteHegseth #MarcoRubio #RepublicanSplit #IranIsraelWar #GlobalCrisis #TrumpSocialPost #IranStrike #RegimeCollapse #TrumpContradiction #DiplomacyVsForce #BreakingNews #ForeignPolicyDebate #MakeIranGreatAgain #WarRhetoric #RepublicanPartyCrisis Also Read Middle East Tensions Disrupt India’s Basmati Exports—1 Lakh Tonnes In Limbo :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/middle-east-tensions-disrupt-india-s-basmati-exports-1-lakh-tonnes-in-limbo-7780785.html?ref=DMDesc What If Iran Leaves the Nuclear Deal?

Assassinations, Jihad Attacks On U.S. Officials – Including Trump, Vance, Rubio, Hegseth And Their Families - Elon Musk And His Companies, U.S. Military, Microsoft, And Targeting Jews In America And Europe: 'There Are No Red Lines.' Al-Awlaki urged Muslims to revive the "tradition of assassinations," describing it as the "greatest form of Jihad today." He said the targets should be the "leaders of apostasy," whom he labeled "Jewish Arabs," specifically naming the leaders of Egypt, Jordan, and the Gulf states. He appealed directly to military personnel in Arab countries, calling on them to take action. He said Arab pilots should strike "the Jews," U.S. military bases in the region, and American aircraft carriers. At the very least, he said, they should attack the palaces of Arab leaders, describing these as the "initial steps" that must be taken. Al-Awlaki claimed there are 4.5 million Muslims in the United States and said that they should carry out acts of retaliation without hesitation, stating: "Do not consult anyone about killing infidel Americans." Speaking over images of Manhattan skyscrapers, he said that the list of targets should be "effective," and declared: "There are no red lines." #TerrorThreat #AlAwlakiSpeech #JihadPropaganda #USNationalSecurity #IslamistExtremism #CounterTerrorism #RadicalIslam #HomegrownTerror #TerrorRecruitment #AssassinationPlot #ExtremistViolence #AntiSemitismAlert #TargetedViolence #USMilitaryThreat #TrumpSecurity #JewishCommunityAlert #MideastTensions #CyberTerrorismWatch #GlobalSecurityThreat #ManhattanThreatAlert ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.122~

Pentagon Boss Hegseth CLASHES With Democrat Over Marines In LA | ‘Troops in LA Cost $134 Million’

House Democratic Caucus Chair Rep. Pete Aguilar (CA) grilled Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over President Trump’s controversial decision to deploy the National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles without state approval. Aguilar raised concerns about troops lacking basic provisions, while Hegseth defended the move, calling Governor Newsom ineffective and asserting federal authority. The heated exchange reflects deepening tensions over federal intervention, civil unrest, and constitutional boundaries. The 60-day deployment has ignited sharp political backlash, with both sides trading accusations over leadership and law enforcement failures. #PeteAguilar #PeteHegseth #Trump #NationalGuard #LosAngelesProtests #MilitaryDeployment #Newsom #USPolitics #TroopDeployment #AguilarVsHegseth Also Read US Deploys 700 Marines To Los Angeles As Immigration Protests Intensify Against Trump's Diktat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-deploys-700-marines-to-los-angeles-as-immigration-protests-intensify-against-trumps-diktat-4176947.html?ref=DMDesc Protests Intensify In Los Angeles After Trump Deploys Hundreds Of National Guard Troops :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/protests-intensify-in-los-angeles-after-trump-deploys-hundreds-of-national-guard-troops-4175915.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Musk Against Supporting Democrats: 'Serious Consequences If He Does That' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-musk-against-supporting-democrats-serious-consequences-if-he-does-that-4175377.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~

‘Trump BETRAYED Us, Diverted 20,000 Missiles’  | Zelensky UNLEASHES on Trump [Video]

‘Trump BETRAYED Us, Diverted 20,000 Missiles’ | Zelensky UNLEASHES on Trump

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed in a TV interview that the Trump administration diverted 20,000 anti-drone missiles, originally approved under Biden, away from Ukraine to the Middle East. Zelensky said Ukraine relied on these precision-guided weapons to counter Shaheed drone strikes, including a record 472 drones on June 1. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth cited urgency but skipped a major Ukraine meeting. Trump later resumed aid after Kyiv agreed to a ceasefire, sparking backlash over his stance to “let the war continue.” #Zelensky #Trump #UkraineAid #DroneWar #MiddleEast #MilitaryAid #ShaheedDrones #TrumpReturns #AntiDroneMissiles #UkraineCrisis #PeteHegseth #USUkraine #WarPolitics #CeasefireDeal #BreakingNews #UkraineWar #DefenseControversy #BidenVsTrump #WeaponRedirection #UkraineDefense #MilitaryShift #Geopolitics #TrumpPolicy #RussiaUkraineWar #USForeignPolicy #DronesInWarfare #ZelenskyReveals #MissileDiversion #AIDFreeze #TrumpControversy Also Read Protests Intensify In Los Angeles After Trump Deploys Hundreds Of National Guard Troops :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/protests-intensify-in-los-angeles-after-trump-deploys-hundreds-of-national-guard-troops-4175915.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Musk Against Supporting Democrats: 'Serious Consequences If He Does That' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-musk-against-supporting-democrats-serious-consequences-if-he-does-that-4175377.html?ref=DMDesc Trump vs Musk: Billionaire Battle Turns Ugly With Epstein Taunt, SpaceX Heat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-vs-musk-billionaire-battle-turns-ugly-with-epstein-taunt-spacex-heat-4173783.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~GR.122~HT.408~
