Zeteo reporters Andrew Perez and Asawin Suebsaeng say President Donald Trump is now having to admit humiliating defeat in the war he single-handedly launched against Iran, so now he is bitterly back to focusing on ramping up attacks on fellow Americans."As [his] failed war in Iran allegedly nears its conclusion, as a humiliating and well-deserved defeat, our authoritarian president is pivoting back to his other unsuccessful war – his assault on Americans," writes Zeteo. “... Trump’s ICE operations are surging, and so are his garbage lawsuits against protesters … One Trump adviser even explicitly told us that it was ‘a good thing’ the president was seemingly trying to wind down his war in Iran, because ‘we need to focus on the terrorists here and the problems we have at home.’”This, they say, includes American citizens who dare to protest the administration’s policies, with the administration “getting back to bringing ridiculous criminal cases against anti-Trump protesters.”“The Trump Justice Department, which functions as an arm of the White House, unveiled a conspiracy case on Tuesday against members of ‘a Minneapolis-based direct-action group with antifa ties,’” reports Zeteo, quoting the DOJ. “The case is eerily reminiscent of the DOJ prosecution of the ‘Broadview Six,’ which included former Zeteo contributor Kat Abughazaleh, for allegedly blocking vehicles at an ICE facility outside Chicago.”The DOJ was forced to dismiss all charges in that case once the judge reviewed grand jury transcripts and found evidence of allegations of prosecutorial misconduct. As in the Broadview Six case, the DOJ fell back to rote allegations of “conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer” against some protestors. Abughazaleh posted of the lazy charges, complaining that “the process is the punishment.”“Earlier this year, sources with direct knowledge of the matter tell us, officials in the Trump Justice Department and elsewhere in the federal apparatus were determined to bring sweeping criminal charges against peaceful protesters and activist leaders in Minnesota,” reports Zeteo. “So far, they’d brought some cases against … activists, but not to the degree that certain senior Trump officials, such as White House policy architect Stephen Miller, craved.”Administration personnel examined everything from the way Minnesota activists and demonstrators were organizing on encrypted messaging apps, to their liberal use of whistles, despite such accusation being “a tough sell,” according to one administration official conceded to us. “It’s hard making people afraid of people with whistles," they added.Nevertheless, Zeteo reports the administration looking to crack down on blue cities across the nation, including New York.

President Donald Trump erupted in a profane outburst at the G7 Summit in France when asked to compare his Iran agreement with former President Barack Obama's Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA. While sitting beside Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, Trump claimed Obama bribed Iran with $1.7 billion in cash flown on a Boeing 757, falsely stating Iranians mocked Obama. He asserted his deal was superior, though he has refused to disclose its details publicly. Commentators, like political scientist and former diplomat Michael McFaul, highlighted that Obama's JCPOA prevented Iranian nuclear weapons without military conflict or massive spending.Veteran journalist John Harwood suggested, "Trump is tormented by jealousy of a superior human being," adding, "Obama's superiority, as a president and a person, hurts Trump especially badly because he's a huge racist and Obama is black."The incident sparked widespread criticism on social media regarding Trump's fitness for office and his erratic behavior on the global stage.Watch the video below.
