Marjorie Taylor Greene:

Trump texted me that if my son gets killed, I deserve it because I was a traitor to him.

Italian PM Meloni:

If U.S. troops leave Italy, it wouldn’t be a choice I agree with.

Reporter:

America is a superpower. Why don't you back down or compromise?

Iran's FM Spokesperson Esmail Baghaei:

We are also a superpower. Next.

Italian PM Meloni:

Italy has upheld all the commitments it has signed — it has always done so.

We have done this especially within NATO; we have done it even when our direct interests were not at stake.

We did it in Afghanistan, we did it in Iraq, and therefore some things that have been said about us I do not consider correct.

Italian PM Meloni:

We want Azerbaijan to strengthen its role as a fundamental hub between Europe and Asia, and for Italy to increasingly become the privileged gateway to the European market.

Turkish President Erdogan on EU:

Strategic blindness toward Türkiye unfortunately still clearly exists in many institutions of the Union.

It must now be understood that a European Union without Türkiye as a full member will not become a global actor or a center of attraction.

We are not a country whose value is remembered only when needed, whose door is knocked on when necessary, and which is sidelined at other times. We never have been, and we never will be.

The European Union must fully appreciate Türkiye’s constructive stance and must not misuse it. It should refrain from actions and rhetoric that would put this at risk.

Let it not be forgotten: neither is Türkiye the old Türkiye, nor is the world the same world confined to the sphere of influence of Western states.

A new world is being built—one where regional cooperation is gaining importance, new actors are emerging, and the global system is rapidly evolving toward multipolarity.

Türkiye is among the strongest countries poised to become one of the poles of this new system.

Today, Europe’s need for Türkiye is greater than Türkiye’s need for Europe.

And this need will grow even more tomorrow.

Europe is at a crossroads:

Either it will see Türkiye’s growing power and global weight as an opportunity to overcome its bottleneck, or it will allow exclusionary rhetoric to darken Europe’s future.

Our hope is that decision-makers in Europe will abandon their political and historical prejudices and focus on developing sincere, genuine, and equal-level relations with Türkiye.

Such a relationship will benefit the European continent, of which Türkiye is an inseparable part.

Marjorie Taylor Greene:

Trump told Pam Bondi, don't release the Epstein files. He told everybody, don't release the Epstein files.

He said his friends would get hurt if we released the Epstein files.

Trump:

I am going to see President Xi and I will say, “I am leading!”

We have very friendly competition.

Trump jokes:

When I get out of office in, let’s say, 8 or 9 years from now…

Senior Iranian official to Drop Site News:

Based on current assessments, another military attack seems likely.

New demands from Chancellor Merz:

Senator Graham to WSJ:

Iran has ‘absolutely’ violated the cease-fire.

These actions merit a ‘big, strong, painful and short’ response.

The actions today are inconsistent with a regime that wants a diplomatic solution.

Trump:

Polls say, “32% of the people are against President Trump.”

When you explain it like, “Is it okay for Iran to have a nuclear weapon?” it wouldn’t be 32%.

But even if you said that, there would be a 32% because the polls are totally fake.

Trump:

I am not a senior; I am far younger than a senior. I feel the same as I felt 50 years ago.

Trump:

Cognitive tests are hard. The first question is very easy. You have a lion, a bear, an alligator, and a squirrel. “Which is the squirrel?”

NEW: U.S. Secret Service says they were involved shooting near 15th St & Independence Ave (close to White House/National Mall).

One person shot by law enforcement, condition unknown.

Details still unclear (no info yet on motive, suspect, or injuries to officers).

Trump:

I could, with one swipe of the pen, I can say, “Let’s have no employment, and I will hire a million people.”

Trump on Iran:

We have a war right now. They say, “What’s taking so long?”

We were in Vietnam 19 years, Iraq for many years, 10 years, Korea 7 years—I won’t even mention WWII.

Trump stopped short of saying Iran has violated the ceasefire today:

They were shot down for the most part. One got through. Not huge damage.

South Korea should take some action.

Trump on Iran:

I call it a “mini-war,” because that’s all they are.

U.S. intelligence says recent fighting has not significantly slowed Iran’s nuclear program.

Officials still estimate Iran would need about 9–12 months to build a nuclear weapon if it chose to do so—roughly unchanged from last year.

Iran’s stockpile of highly enriched uranium remains largely intact and unaccounted for, which experts say is key to any weapons timeline.
