Great to join @livenowfox @westfallaustin to discuss upcoming U.S.-Iran talks and Washington’s essential nuclear demands—the full, permanent, and verified dismantlement of Iran’s nuclear weapons assets to ensure the regime can’t reconstitute.

“There's another enemy here that Iran has… and that's the Iranian people… That's who this messaging, these fake plans, is all aimed at. They’re trying to convince these folks there’s no need for a revolution.” — Blaine Holt explained why Tehran is using talks with the United States to project a false image of strength and legitimacy @the_irascible @FredFleitz @Marc_Lotter @AlisonMaloni

🚨 NEW: Fox’s @brithume on Iran’s discredited initial peace plan: “It was never in play.. I think we should entirely discount the stuff that comes out of Tehran and Iran these days. I don’t think any of it is credible. These people are certifiable liars. That plan, you could just look at it, and know it was a non-starter.” “Apparently there is another plan on the table that comes closer to matching our 15 points that we have put forward. And that is the basis on which the administration decided to go for a ceasefire and have talks. How far this will go I don’t know. When people talk about whether the ceasefire will hold, we need to give it a chance to take hold. I don’t think it has even started yet.”

PRESS SEC: I would strongly advise the media against running with narratives that have no basis in fact. President Trump would NEVER accept an Iranian wish list as a deal. He will only make a deal that serves in the best interests of the American people 🇺🇸

Iran’s first of its 10 point plan in English: A binding guarantee that the U.S. and allies will not strike Iran again But in Iran’s Farsi version, a key phrase is tacked onto its first point namely the acceptance of Iran’s uranium enrichment. So, Iran’s English version of its 10 point plan makes no mention of nuclear, but its Farsi version, likely approved by the leadership, reiterates the same unacceptable enrichment condition. On the other hand, US first four points 1. Dismantle all major nuclear facilities 2. End all uranium enrichment on Iranian soil 3. Transfer enriched uranium stockpiles out of Iran 4. Accept intrusive international inspections everywhere These will be tough negotiations, made even harder by Iran’s other non-starter demands. The ceasefire may only be a brief interlude between military conflicts.

A middle-aged @usairforce colonel went through a shoot down and a parachute drop, was severely injured, treated his own wounds, ran five miles in enemy territory, climbed a 7,000-foot mountain, radioed the proclamation, "God is good," and then holed up in a crevice in near-freezing temperatures for two days while his brothers and sisters came to rescue him. That's America; that's the American military; that's the United States Air Force.

Budapest is the only major city in Europe that keeps getting better. Every year it’s more vibrant, cleaner, and more beautiful. Every other European city just gets worse. Especially Paris, London, and Berlin are just terrible. Shows you the difference good leadership makes.

My latest for @nypost on the regime change question. Start with a basic fact: Iran is a revolutionary state. Its survival depends on three pillars — an ideology, a patronage network and a coercive apparatus drawing legitimacy from a founding idea. To bring such a system down, all three must fail simultaneously. And Iran was already decomposing when Operation Epic Fury began. nypost.com/2026/04/03/opi…

"Iran did not start this war". We just shouted "Death to Amrika" for 47 years, kidnapped Americans & financed proxies who killed Americans... The smooth-talking Zarif reappears, pen at the ready, functioning internet connection & plenty of time to write a @ForeignAffairs article
Javad Zarif@JZarif

As an Iranian, outraged by Donald Trump’s reckless aggression & crude insults, yet proud of our armed forces & resilient people, I am torn about publishing this peace-plan in Foreign Affairs. Yet I'm convinced that war must end on terms consistent with Iran’s national interests.
