Trump says he isn’t sending troops to Iran but also says he wouldn’t tell the press even if he was: "No, I'm not putting troops anywhere. If I were, I certainly wouldn't tell you but I'm not putting troops". Meanwhile, the USS Tripoli and thousands of marines are en route to the Middle East as part of a Marine Expeditionary Unit to help secure the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump finishes his press conference by saying he'll take one more 'nice' question before turning to GB New's Bev Turner who then asks how his lawsuit against the BBC is going over what she called its 'fake news documentary'.

Trump replies back after the Irish leader calls for cool heads in the US/Europe relationship: 'We helped with Ukraine and they won't help with Iran' [...] 'I think it's very unfair to the United States, not to me, but to the United States'

Trump says he always thought that Joe Kent - the man who he appointed as the head of the National Counterterrorism Center and today resigned - was 'weak on security'.

NEW: The first senior Trump administration official resigns over the war, saying that Israel and a pro-Israel ‘echo chamber was used to deceive you [Trump] into believing that Iran posed an imminent threat to the United States’. He adds that ‘until June of 2025, you understood that the wars in the Middle East were a trap that robbed America of the precious lives of our patriots […] You can reverse course and chart a new path for our nation, or you can allow us to slip further toward decline and chaos. You hold the cards.’
Joe Kent@joekent16jan19

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

A fascinating window into the different leadership styles between the UK and the US from Trump: ‘You know the prime minister of the United Kingdom yesterday, told me, ‘I'm meeting with my team to make a determination’. I said, ‘you don't need to meet it with the team. You're the Prime Minister. You can make your own… Why do you have to meet with your team to find out whether or not you send some mine sweepers to us or to send some folks?”

Trump says he believed Iran-produced AI-slop propaganda of the USS Lincoln aircraft carrier burning, adding he called his generals to check whether it was real or not by asking ‘what’s with the Abraham Lincoln? Looks like it’s on fire’ before being told it was fake.

Trump says he helped Rep Dunn firstly because of he likes him, but also because he otherwise would’ve lost his vote in GOP’s razor-thin majority in the House; adding the vote reason was a ‘close second’

Speaker Johnson looks uncomfortable as Trump outs Rep Neal Dunn’s private health problems, saying he would be ‘dead by June’ with a ‘heart problem’. Rep Dunn now though has a ‘new lease on life’ according to Speaker Johnson.

Trump lashes out at allies who won’t join his naval initiative in the Strait of Hormuz: ‘For 40 years, we're protecting you, and you don't want to get involved in something that is very minor, very few shots going to be taken because they [Iran] don't have many shots left. But they said we'd rather not get involved.’
