Speaking during an event today at the White House, Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy attempted to ask President Trump about reports that Russia was providing Iran with intelligence and data to target U.S. forces in the Middle East, to which Trump interrupted him and said: โ€œThat's an easy problem compared to what we're doing here. But can I be honest? It's just, I have a lot of respect for you. You've always been very nice to me. What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We're talking about something else. Can we keep this - maybe a little bit.โ€

In a post this morning on TruthSocial, President Donald J. Trump stated Iran has โ€œapologized and surrendered to its Middle East neighbors, and promised that it will not shoot at them anymore.โ€ Trump further stated that, โ€œIt is the first time that Iran has ever lost, in thousands of years, to surrounding Middle Eastern Countries. They have said, โ€˜Thank you President Trump.โ€™ I have said, โ€˜You're welcome!โ€™ Iran is no longer the โ€˜Bully of the Middle East,โ€™ they are, instead, โ€˜THE LOSER OF THE MIDDLE EAST,โ€™ and will be for many decades until they surrender or, more likely, completely collapse! Today Iran will be hit very hard! Under serious consideration for complete destruction and certain death, because of Iran's bad behavior, are areas and groups of people that were not considered for targeting up until this moment in time.โ€
