Trump on Iran:

When I went into Venezuela, everyone was against it. Then, two days later, they said, "Wow, that's fantastic."

A lot of people are saying that with Iran already.

Trump on Iran:

I think they are being, by far, the most serious so far.

Trump:

Obama went after journalists, and nobody said anything about it.

When Obama does it, it's okay, but when I do it, it's not.

Trump on the Saudi nuclear deal:

If Saudi Arabia doesn't join the Abraham Accords, I am not going to do the deal.

This was always understood. Saudi Arabia knew.

Trump on Iran:

What are you supposed to do when you are winning a war? Stop fighting?

We are winning the war by a lot. We are talking to them right now, and they are willing to do things that they would have never done.

Reporter: You reposted Laura Loomer interviewing Zelensky. What do you make of growing MAGA support for the war in Ukraine?

Trump: They support what I support.

Trump:

I think LeBron—maybe he is a racist. Maybe he doesn't like Trump.

I only like people that like me.

Trump on Balogun's red card:

Gianni did a good job in making that call.

All I did was ask for a review. I thought that call was not a good call.

Reporter: You told Axios you are considering a "massive attack" on Iran. What is your tipping point?

Trump: We are talking to them. Maybe there won't be a tipping point, or maybe there will be.

Reporter: When will Iran cry uncle and actually come to the table?

Trump: Maybe they will cry uncle, or maybe they will just go into a cave and hide.

They have very deep caves where they can hide.

BREAKING: Yemen's Houthis Spokesperson:

Saudi aggression now targets the port of Hodeidah.

They have opened the gates of divine hell upon themselves.

Trump on Iran:

Iran, shockingly, started shooting at everybody all over the Middle East.

If they had a nuclear weapon, they would have used that.

Trump:

We're gonna put a major tariff on Mexico because of the lettuce, and we're gonna put a big tariff on Canada because of the smoke.

Saudi-flagged oil/chemical tanker NCC MASA was hit while sailing in the Red Sea today, sustaining minor hull damage but continuing to its destination with crew safe.

It's the second Saudi-linked tanker hit in days after the Encelia strike, part of the Houthis' declared blockade on Saudi shipping.

Reporter: You say you are talking with Iran. Who is involved? Witkoff?

Trump: Sort of everybody. JD, Marco—a lot of people are talking. It's a big deal.

Trump:

China makes windmills, but they don't use windmills.

China uses coal, oil, gas, and nuclear.

Netanyahu:

One of our people met a Russian expert a few weeks ago. Do you know how he described us? He said, "Israel is a small global power." That's true.

We're not the size of China. We're not the size of the United States. We're not the size of Russia.

But he didn't call us a regional power—he called us a global power. In certain fields, that's true.

Zelensky on Tucker Carlson:

There are smart people, and there are not smart people.

I never watch not smart people.

So I don't watch Tucker Carlson's interview with anybody.

Elon Musk:

Money won't matter in 2036.

What do you want money for? You want money for goods and services: food, housing, transport, entertainment.

If robots and AI are providing more goods and services than any human could possibly consume, what do you need money for in that case?

Elon Musk:

Given that the Chinese AI companies are doing as well as they are with a relatively small amount of compute, it seems as though if they had a lot of compute, there's a good chance that they would be the leaders.

And at some point, they probably will have a lot of compute.
