Saudi Arabia will only normalize relations with Israel once there is an irreversible pathway to a Palestinian state, CNN reports citing a Saudi source, after U.S. President Trump said Middle Eastern states would be required to recognize Israel once an Iran deal is reached.






MORE details on US strikes vs Iranian targets today: 2 Iranian boats were caught laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz, senior US official tells me. The US military eliminated both IRGC vessels and also struck at a SAM (surface to air missile) site in Bandar Abbas that was targeting US warplanes. “These were defensive strikes.” They do not indicate ceasefire is over, according to two well placed sources.













Big challenges that the Trump admin has been honest about: the Iranian political structure has broken down and it's hard to know if the people we negotiate with can execute on an agreement; and if we remove maximum pressure in exchange for an open Strait, it removes leverage on the nuclear program. That's why we need to pair the latter w/ the former. ht @kevincorke


@kamilkazani It depends on if Hasan actually broke any laws. I'm not sure if he did or not. There are a deluge of sings elsewhere pointing to American decline. This sits near the bottom


🚨 Hasan Names Singham, PSL, ANSWER, and Code Pink in One Breath On stream today, Hasan Piker discussed the reported Treasury scrutiny and said the broader target is “probably Singham” and “his operation,” naming PSL (Party for Socialism and Liberation), ANSWER Coalition, Code Pink, and “anything that he has ever financed.” He then acknowledged that Roy Singham lives in China and has been “a funding vehicle” for political movements and activism in the United States. That is exactly why this matters. This was never just about one influencer’s Cuba trip. It is about the Singham-linked ecosystem, the groups it funds, the delegations it supports, and the political operations built around them. Hasan didn’t refute the network. He mapped it.
