🤪 🇺🇸 A golden Trump statue, a plane, a helicopter, and fighter jets — Trump showcased an AI-generated “presidential library.”

“The U.S. president shared a proposed design for the Trump Presidential Library and Museum in Miami. The images feature a 50-story skyscraper with an entrance designed as a golden portal. Inside the lobby, the presidential aircraft Air Force One is displayed, along with several U.S. Air Force planes.

A replica of the White House garden is set up on the roof of the building. The cost of the library could reach $100 million.”

😭 🇺🇸🇮🇷 THE UNITED STATES HAS PROPOSED PLACING THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ UNDER INTERNATIONAL CONTROL — THE DAILY TELEGRAPH.

A plan is also being discussed involving Pakistan, Egypt, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia, which предусматривает the introduction of transit fees similar to those of the Suez Canal.

#️⃣ 🇮🇹🇮🇷 Italy, following Spain, is banning U.S. aircraft involved in the operation against Iran from using its Sigonella air base and a naval facility in the Mediterranean.

⏳ 🇺🇸🇮🇷 Formations of U.S. military forces heading to the Middle East are being posted on Twitter/X.

💬 🇮🇱 Netanyahu:

The United States is threatening to deal with the Strait of Hormuz issue by force — I hope it succeeds.

Iran must be stripped of this leverage.

After the war, this needs to be bypassed through pipelines from Saudi Arabia to the Mediterranean.

💬 🇮🇱 Netanyahu:

We are forming alliances with Arab countries that are talking about fighting alongside us.

In the past, I had secret conversations with Arab leaders. I told them — the moment Iran is able to, they will conquer you and topple your kingdoms.

Back then, they didn’t really internalize this — today, they understand.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, which refused to get involved in the decapitation of Iran, I have a suggestion for you: Number 1, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and Number 2, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT. You’ll have to start learning how to fight for yourself, the U.S.A. won’t be there to help you anymore, just like you weren’t there for us. Iran has been, essentially, decimated. The hard part is done. Go get your own oil!

💬 🇮🇷 Trump:

The Country of France wouldn’t let planes headed to Israel, loaded up with military supplies, fly over French territory. France has been VERY UNHELPFUL with respect to the “Butcher of Iran,” who has been successfully eliminated! The U.S.A. will REMEMBER!!!

💬 🇪🇸 Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez:

The Government of Spain condemns the death penalty against Palestinians that Israel's parliament has just approved.

This is an asymmetrical measure that would not be applied to Israelis who committed the same offenses.

That is not justice. It is one more step toward apartheid.

#️⃣ Countries restricting U.S. military flights due to Iran War:

🇮🇹 Italy

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth:

A crew chief we flew with summed it up nicely. He said, “It’s been a busy few weeks, sir. Tough stuff. But I’m so honored to be called up. This fight is long overdue. We need to address it for our kids. We cannot pass the buck. Please thank the President for us.”

I heard that time and time again.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth:

The three Air Force captains shot down weeks ago by Kuwaiti friendly fire never left the theater.

They all dropped bombs over Tehran last night.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth:

The coming days will be decisive. Iran knows that.

There is almost nothing they can do militarily about it.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth on Iran:

Yes, they will still shoot some missiles — but we will shoot them down.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth on Iran:

If Iran is wise, it will cut a deal. Trump doesn’t bluff, and he does not back down.

The new Iranian regime should understand that by now. Regime change has occurred. This new regime should be wiser than the last.

Trump is willing to make a deal, and the terms are known to them.

If Iran is not willing, then the United States Department of Defense will continue with even greater intensity.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth on Iran:

Our strikes are damaging the morale of the Iranian military, leading to widespread desertions and key personnel shortages.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth:

Our defense industrial base is more vibrant today than it has been since World War II — and it’s growing rapidly.

Contrast that with Iran, whose defense industrial base is nearly completely destroyed.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth on the Strait of Hormuz:

I believe Trump was clear this morning in his truth that countries around the world should be prepared to step up on this critical waterway.

It’s not just the United States Navy. The last time I checked, there is a large and capable Royal Navy that could be prepared to contribute as well.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth on the Strait of Hormuz:

This is not just our problem going forward, even though we have done the lion’s share of the preparation to ensure that the Strait will remain open.

That is the desired outcome.

💬 🇺🇸 Hegseth on Iran:

We know exactly what Russia and China are doing... we are addressing it.
