French President Macron on social media:

We must go further in the regulation of social media in order to preserve the DNA of our democracy.

Because at the same time, we are opening Pandora’s box and allowing a lot of hate speech on these platforms and social media. We are too weak and too naive.

And we should ask these platforms, first, to completely block bots.

We have to be sure there is one single person with one account. If this is an AI system, if this is bought and organized by a big organization, it should simply be forbidden.

We need transparency of the algorithm. We are a democracy. We don’t ask for the IP, but we do ask for transparency, which is part of our democracy.

We need responsibility from these platforms when they don’t respect our social order, when they don’t respect our rules.

And to allow us to do so, we have to go further in order to sue those who clearly decide not to respect our rules and our regulation. And we should block all those who refuse to comply.

Trump:

We are purchasing new Abrams tanks, still the best tank, right?

It was named in honor of Stacey Abrams.

Only a few very political people would understand that.

French President Macron on European nuclear deterrence:

This is exactly what we are doing for the first time in history with Germany.

We have to re-articulate nuclear deterrence in this approach. And this is why we are conceiving it in a few weeks’ time.

Trump on Venezuela:

The Russian equipment didn’t work, the Chinese equipment didn’t work.

Everyone is trying to figure out, “Why didn’t it work?”

Some day you are going to find out.

Trump on Iran:

We sent a very big carrier group to Iran.

They have been difficult to make a deal.

Senator Graham on Iran:

It’s a religious theocracy that, if they could get a nuclear weapon, would use it to advance three goals: purify Islam, destroy the Jewish state, and come after us.

Hitler wrote he wanted to kill all the Jews—nobody believed him. I believe the Ayatollah and his regime—not the Iranian people—are religious fanatics, religious Nazis.

Hitler wanted a master race; they want a master religion.

There’s no negotiating with these people, in my view. They’re hell-bent on a religious agenda that teaches them to lie and destroy in the name of God.

Senator Graham on Iran:

You can't say "keep protesting, we got your back, help is on the way" and nothing happened.

Any deal about Iran has to come to the Senate. I'm not going to bless a bad deal.

Senator Graham on Venezuela:

If you're in charge of Venezuela now and you want to keep doing what Maduro did, you're an idiot.

You're either going to get killed or go to the jail.

Senator Graham on Iranian protestors:

They've been shot down on the street like dogs.

These are the people you want to help.

Senator Graham to Saudi Arabia’s MBS and UAE’s MBZ:

Be smart. Knock it off, Saudi Arabia. Knock it off. I'm tired of this crap.

MBZ is not a Zionist. You're emboldening Iran by having this conflict.

I know they got differences in Yemen and they got differences in Sudan, but we got to think big picture.

To any leader in the region that doesn't understand you're on the verge of history, history would judge you poorly because you are.

Senator Graham on Reza Pahlavi:

If they screw it up, they screw it up.

I'd rather give them a chance than not because I know what I'm getting with the Ayatollah.

Senator Graham on midterm elections:

Right now, looks like we'll lose the House, maybe keep the Senate.

Then in '28 we'll have another election and we'll have another one and another one and another one.

God willing.

Senator Graham on Khamenei:

If somebody had killed Hitler in 1935 it would have probably been better.

If this regime falls, the day after has promise.

If it stays in place, the day after is going to triple—generationally destroy the Mideast and we'll be haunted by this for generations to come, and they will be talking about us in a very bad way.

NATO's Rutte on him calling Trump "daddy":

Here is my insufficient command of the English language - I said 'yeah, daddy sometimes has to be tough.'

And... of course later realizing that the word 'daddy' has a lot of connotations.

Then, what he did, and this is to his credit because he is a fun guy and he has a lot of humor, the American side then put this on T-shirts, there was a video when he came back from the Hague summit where he said 'daddy is home.'

So there it was born.

And it was never intentioned, but okay, I am now carrying it, living with it, it's a fact of life.

Reporter: Do you want a regime change in Iran?

Trump: It seems like that would be the best thing that could happen.

For 47 years they have been talking and talking, in the meantime, we lost a lot of lives while they talk...

Let's see what happens.

Reporter: You said that the Iranian nuclear sites have been totally obliterated. What is left to go after?

Trump: You could get whatever the dust is down there. If we do it, that's really the least of we mission.

But we would probably grab whatever is left.

Trump on Iran:

We don't want any enrichment.

Reporter: What can Iran do to avoid an attack?

Trump: Give us the deal that they should have given us the first time. They give us the right deal, we won't do that.

They want to talk but so far they do a lot of talking and no action.

Zelensky on Putin:

I am younger than Putin, this is important.

He does not have too much time.
