Today, we remember George Floyd, who was murdered by a former Minneapolis police officer six years ago.   That moment changed our city forever.

If it is perceived in the region that a deal with Iran allows the regime to survive and become more powerful over time, we will have poured gasoline on the conflicts in Lebanon and Iraq. A deal that is perceived to allow Iran to survive and possess the ability to control the Strait in the future will put Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Shia militias in Iraq on steroids.

I am deeply concerned about what we are hearing about an Iran “deal,” being pushed by some voices in the administration. President Trump’s decision to strike Iran was the most consequential decision of his second term. He was right to do so, and we achieved extraordinary military results—including destroying all of their missiles & drones and sinking their entire navy. If the result of all that is to be an Iranian regime—still run by Islamists who chant “death to America”—now receiving billions of dollars, being able to enrich uranium & develop nuclear weapons, and having effective control over the Strait of Hormuz, then that outcome would be a disastrous mistake. The details are still coming out—and I pray the early reports are wrong—but the fact that Biden’s Rob Malley is praising the deal is not encouraging. President Trump believes in peace through strength, and his strong leadership has already made America much safer. He should continue to hold the line, defend America & enforce the red lines he has repeatedly drawn.

NEW: From what I’m hearing from both the US and Gulf sides, this deal is exactly what Trump has been asking for out of any deal. Main portion includes no nuclear weapon and the Strait of Hormuz will be opened during a 60-day negotiating period

This is even worse than it looks. The Trump administration outsourced government weaponization to Israel, so Americans could be targeted without congressional oversight. Trump is using the same illegal tactics that were used on him against some of his oldest supporters. As usual, I am a major target in the documents obtained from Sebastian Gorka/Israeli intelligence op..

All Lindsey Graham cares about is war, death, and destruction. He hates peace and lusts for war. He does not care how much his bloodlust damages our country, because he does not care about this country. The man is a cancer on our nation’s body politic.
