In fact, this […]
Trump says the oil will flow but state media reports out of Tehran suggest it could be under ‘Iranian arrangements’ ; UFC paying White House fighters in Trump crypto. Key US politics stories from Sunday 14 June at a glanceThe Iranian deputy foreign minister, Kazem Gharibabadi, confirmed in the early hours of Monday an agreement for an “immediate end” to the US-Iranian war, and said Lebanon was included in a peace deal due to be signed on Friday. Pakistan’s prime minister, Shehbaz Sharif, announced the agreement on Sunday afternoon, saying both sides would be declaring “the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts”.Regional officials said Qatari mediators had travelled to Tehran on Sunday to finalise terms of a memorandum of understanding (MOU). Uncertainty swirled, though, including around whether Israel would end its attacks aimed at Hezbollah in Lebanon, while Iranian hardliners registered their opposition to what they see as capitulation to the US. Lindsay Graham, a Republican senator, said he was pleased to hear about the MOU but added: “I am somewhat concerned that Iran’s view of the agreement seems different than what the American negotiating team is claiming.” Continue reading...

Eric Trump, the oldest of President Donald Trump's sons, was allegedly texting a UFC insider about whether any of the fights on the "UFC Freedom 250" event card were "rigged," according to a new report. Daniel Cormier, a UFC commentator, shared images on his X account of Trump texting him for information about whether any fighters were injured ahead of their matches, as well as other information he could use to place bets. "I'll just cut to the chase. Are any of the fights tomorrow rigged?" one image showed Trump asking Cormier. "I've been eyeing the Lopes fight and I think an upset wouldn't be too unrealistic $$" Screen grabs of the since-deleted post were reshared by several MMA fan accounts, and MMA journalist Adam Martin confirmed that he, too, had seen the original post before it was taken down. Martin also questioned the authenticity of Cormier's original post. "I will say that the DMs from Trump were a bit weird," Martin wrote on X. "I do wonder if he got hacked and some hacker sent the DMs to DC. But DC's post 100% was legit. He pulled the classic Jon Jones 'tweet and delete' move. Hopefully, he comments on this sometime tonight. DC didn't do anything wrong [by the way]." Cormier seemed to respond to the speculation that Trump had sought inside information from him in a cryptic post on X. "Are people really this dumb?" Cormier asked.
President Donald Trump's announcement on Sunday that the U.S. and Iran had reached a new agreement that provides a pathway to ending the more-than 100-day-old conflict was mocked by some political analysts as "insulting."Trump wrote on Truth Social that he had fully authorized the "toll-free" reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a global waterway that accounts for 20% of global energy trade. Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who has been mediating the talks, posted on X that the agreement "[laid] the foundation for the technical talks and the official signing ceremony," which is scheduled for this Friday. The announcement was made less than one hour before Trump's "UFC Freedom 250" event at the White House began. It also sent Brent crude oil prices tumbling to roughly $83 per barrel, its lowest level since the war began. Initial details of the deal from Iranian state media say the U.S. agreed to include a reconstruction package worth at least $300 billion and to release $12 billion of the regime's frozen assets. Political analysts and observers mocked the announced deal on social media, arguing that it was yet another instance where Trump backed down from his threats. "The reported details of this Iran deal are so insulting to the 13 U.S. servicemen and women who died," Mike Nellis, a Democratic political strategist, posted on X. "We’ve accomplished nothing. Iran is reopening the Strait of Hormuz, not giving up its uranium, and Trump is going to give them $25 billion. That’s way worse than the deal Obama negotiated.""Congrats on things being back to how they were before you and Israel started this nonsense. What an incredible achievement," Barry Malone, a journalist and political commentator, posted on X. "Until this is in writing and all parties sign in agreement, there is NO deal," Gabe Sanchez, who hosts the "What Was That Show" podcast, posted on X. "Trump gave away everything and I’m positive that he will screw it up even more.""The president surrendered on his birthday," writer Peter Rothpletz posted on X.
