(VIDEO) Vance Drops “Trump 2028” Line on Gutfeld

During a Tuesday night appearance on Fox’s late-night show “Gutfeld!” Trump's presumptive 2028 successor, Vice President JD Vance, dropped a "Trump 2028" punchline. While discussing Trump's memorandum of understanding with Iran, Panelist Lisa Kennedy Montgomery said she's "optimistic" about it because Trump "sides with capitalism and economic growth." She added, "I think if there's one legacy he wants, it's stability in the Middle East, and to be able to turn the entire place into a massive Trump World Resort, which I also celebrate, because I'm hoping by being on the same show with Vice President Vance that I get a discount code when it opens." Vance immediately quipped, "If you want the discount code, it's Trump 2028." WATCH: Donald Trump Jr. The post (VIDEO) Vance Drops “Trump 2028” Line on Gutfeld appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.

US releases text of Iran peace plan as Trump says deal averts ‘worldwide depression’

Details of 14-point MOU revealed as senior US officials claim ‘major win’ despite significant concessions to TehranMiddle East crisis – live updatesThe Trump administration has released the text of its 14-point agreement with Iran, claiming it delivered a “major win” for the United States – even as it made significant political and financial concessions to Iran to reopen the strait of Hormuz and prevent a “worldwide depression”.In extraordinary remarks on Wednesday, Donald Trump went from threatening Iran with a new wave of attacks to suggesting the country had basic rights to enrich uranium for civilian use, that he would not pressure Tehran to abandon its ballistic missiles programme and the US was “going to have to give back” billions of dollars in frozen Iranian assets.

After Months of War, Trump Says Iran Has Right to Nuclear Program

After Months of War, Trump Says Iran Has Right to Nuclear Program

President Trump said Wednesday that Iran could have its own nuclear program.“It is a little hard that when you say that somebody wants it, other people have it, other adjoining states have it, and you’re not letting them have it for purposes of electricity and things like that. It’s always a little tough. You have to use a little common sense,” Trump said at the G7 summit in France, alongside Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.Trump leaves door open to Iran enriching: "It's a little hard when other people have it, other adjoining states have it, and you're not letting them have it for purposes of electricity and things like that. You have to use a little common sense." pic.twitter.com/oVfBz4nuI8— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) June 17, 2026It seems to be a sharp departure from Trump’s previous claims during the war. After months of insisting that the purpose of the war was to get rid of any nuclear capability, demanding “zero enrichment,” Trump is now saying that the country can use nuclear power for electricity.One wonders what Republicans in Congress—let alone the international community—will think of Trump’s latest concession. If a final peace deal between Iran and the U.S. doesn’t have any restrictions on the country’s nuclear program, it will be effectively worse than the 2015 JCPOA agreement with Iran.That agreement was drafted not only between the U.S. and Iran, but the other members of the U.N. Security Council, including China, Russia, the U.K., and the European Union. This deal was negotiated without Congress even being aware of the details. Iran will likely be receiving $300 billion in reconstruction funds, and now they might have a nuclear program too. What did the Trump administration accomplish?
