My thoughts go out to Tulsi Gabbard and her family, as her husband battles this serious health problem. I hope and pray that he makes a speedy and full recovery. While the circumstances around her departure are deserving of our sympathy, let’s be clear: Tulsi Gabbard’s only positive contribution to our nation's national security is her resignation. She politicized intelligence. She dismantled critical agencies keeping Americans safe. She weaponized the IC to pursue baseless election fraud claims. And more. We must ensure that her tenure — marked by a devotion to the person of the president and not to the security of the country — represents a terrible exception at DNI and not the new normal.

🚨BREAKING: Iran has submitted a new proposal through regional mediators to end the U.S. war, according to a senior Iranian official who spoke to Drop Site News, while Trump reportedly weighs launching new strikes as soon as this weekend. The proposal splits negotiations into two tracks: ➤ Track 1: End the war first. Iran wants a formal declaration ending the war, an end to the U.S. naval blockade on Iranian ports, and the release of frozen Iranian assets before broader nuclear negotiations begin. In exchange, Iran would provisionally reopen the Strait of Hormuz, waive transit fees temporarily, and allow maritime traffic to resume while a new “governance regime” for Hormuz is finalized. Iran is also demanding a compensation mechanism funded by the U.S. and other countries involved in attacks on Iran to pay for damages inside Iran, along with an end to Israeli attacks in Lebanon. ➤ Track 2: Nuclear negotiations after the war ends. Iran says it would: • Suspend enrichment above 3.6% for 10 years • Dilute uranium enriched above 20% under supervision inside Iran • Commit not to develop a nuclear weapon In return, Iran wants: • Recognition of its right to enrich uranium • Limited enrichment rights preserved under a future agreement • Full sanctions relief The Trump administration reportedly wants the war-ending deal and nuclear agreement finalized simultaneously, while continuing to insist Iran cannot keep enriched uranium. Iran says that demand remains a major obstacle. Iranian officials also warned Tehran is preparing for escalation if attacks resume, including potential strikes on U.S. interests and bases beyond West Asia, as well as Gulf energy infrastructure and naval assets, alongside possible coordination with regional allies to disrupt shipping in the Bab al-Mandab Strait. 🔗 Full report below ⬇️
