Japan celebrated America's 250th anniversary with a drone show in Tokyo featuring Trump and Sanae Takaichi.

Russia's Medvedev in Iran:

We mourn together with the people of Iran in connection with the tragic, martyred death of the Supreme Leader and the great Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei, and share your grief.

But this grief has united the people of Iran, who did not yield to the pressure organized by the United States of America and other joined countries, stood firm in this struggle, and, I am sure, will ultimately win.

Japan celebrated America's 250th Independence Day with fireworks in Tokyo tonight.

Iran's Ghalibaf:

Imagine having forty-something million of your own citizens on food stamps and calling another nation hungry.

This is not a proclamation. This is a projection. Keep your SNAP advice.

Our assets, our choices. Mind your malnutrition rates.

Trump:

It is my Great Honor to have just signed Pardons for six people who were persecuted by the Biden Administration, and were in, or being sent to, prison, for “fixing their car.”

While I know this sounds ridiculous, it is nevertheless a fact, and part of the Weaponization and Stupidity that our Country had to endure during four long years of Sleepy Joe Biden.

I AM SETTING THEM ALL FREE, RIGHT NOW!

Putin once again shows up in military uniform and says Russian forces have the "strategic initiative" on the front lines.

EU’s von der Leyen:

Europe is facing a housing crisis.

We aim to launch a European housing alliance, and we will convene a high-level European housing summit.

EU’s von der Leyen:

The continued expansion of Israeli settlements in the West Bank is utterly unacceptable.

The violence used to achieve this expansion is abhorrent.

This undermines the future of the two-state solution, which in our view remains the only viable path to lasting peace.

The situation is clearly deteriorating.

EU’s von der Leyen on Israel:

Ten months ago, the Commission proposed suspending trade preferences under the EU–Israel Association Agreement.

This proposal would have a significant economic impact, but it remains on the table for the Member States to vote on by qualified majority.

The ball is therefore in the court of the Member States. We made this proposal ten months ago.

Last month, we agreed on sanctions against extremist Israeli settlers. A number of Member States have proposed sanctions against Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir as well.

So far, however, no consensus has been reached.

Putin:

The more strikes the enemy attempts to carry out against civilian facilities in Russia, the larger the security zone we will have to create in the adjacent territory.

Trump:

You can be loyal to Karl Marx or you can be loyal to America.

You can be a communist or you can be a patriot. You cannot be both.

Trump on Iran:

We knocked the hell out of Iran. They're dying to settle. They want to settle so badly.

We gave them a week off for a funeral because we're nice. It's true.

Trump on communists:

We will send them into exile. We will send them quickly away.

Trump:

In America, we speak English because that is the language of our founding. And for a thousand years, that has been the language of freedom.

An American always wants peace and order, but we will never shrink from danger or threat. We will always fight, fight, fight, and win, win, win. We got to do that.

Trump on communism:

Communism is the enemy of free people everywhere, everywhere in the world. Never works.

It's the enemy of the Constitution. Above all, it's the enemy of July 4th, 1776.

Trump on communism:

Even while the radicals and extremists attack our incredible history at every turn, they are silent on the miserable history of communism itself because it never worked.

Thousands of years, if you look at it, under different names, under somewhat different ideologies and systems, that system has led to more death and destruction than any system ever tried.

It killed 100 million people just in the last century alone.

Trump on communism:

The Communist Party is made up of illegal immigrants, criminals, and everybody that doesn't want to work.

Communism is a loser. It always was, and it is right now. It's a big loser. Look at the people that are promoting it. They are not the people you're going to follow.

Trump on communism:

Americans have won the most Olympic medals of any country in the world by far, the most Nobel Prizes.

Well, they haven't given me one. I settled 8 wars, and I still haven’t gotten it. That's okay.
