A framework agreement to end the Iran war is being “fine-tuned,” according to a security official from Pakistan, who has been helping media negotiations between Iran and the US.
Over the last 12 months, the Trump administration has moved to use nearly every tool it has to deliver a nuclear energy renaissance in the United States and power its race for artificial intelligence dominance.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth delivered a “last-minute” commencement speech Saturday in New York to West Point graduates, during which he made the startling admission that the Trump administration could very well be sending those graduates “to war,” and soon.“Now, today, we are going to send you – we're sending you to lead, we're sending you to forge warriors, and we're sending you – perhaps – to war,” Hegseth told the nearly 1,000 West Point graduates. “And you are ready. The world today is at a crossroads, just as it has been for the past 250 years of our great republic. You are stepping into the arena at a time when the stakes could not be higher.”Hegseth’s admission comes amid growing speculation that President Donald Trump may authorize a new wave of attacks on Iran this weekend. Multiple outlets have reported that Trump is actively preparing to launch strikes against Iran, and thereby end the ongoing but weak U.S.-Iran ceasefire. And on Saturday, Trump teased a full U.S.-takeover of Iran, while also saying there was a “solid” chance that by Sunday, he may decide to blow Iran “to kingdom come.”The remarks also come in contrast with comments he made leading up to the 2024 election, when, during an appearance on the “Shawn Ryan Show,” he said that “the last thing” he wanted was his “son deploying” overseas for an armed conflict.

Appearing on MS NOW on Saturday morning, the New York Times' Glenn Thrush claimed acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has no one to blame but himself as he gets battered by Democrats, Republicans and in the press as he does Donald Trump’s bidding.And it shows in his face, he noted.As bad as Donald Trump’s week was, the man who took fired Attorney General Pam Bondi’s place was raked over the coals in a Senate hearing and then was berated by Republican senators in a closed-door meeting described as "incredibly hostile."That led Thrush to tell the hosts of “The Weekend” that Blanche has looked deflated in all of his public appearances.“The one thing you can say about Todd Blanche is you definitely want to play poker with the guy, because just look at his face I mean, he looks miserable,” he observed. “He, like, wears his agony on his face and he's just being he's just reaping what he has sown as somebody who refuses to say no to Donald Trump, he has simply not turned down any request.”“And this, as we were reporting and figuring out how this all came down, it seems that this huge thing that he has sort of blown up the Senate and created this enormous rift in his party was an expedient so that they could get out of having to actually pay Donald Trump money, which Blanche and folks at the White House actually believed would have been a bridge too far,” he added.“So believe it or not, this fund, this weaponization fund, which everyone is calling a slush fund with no rules, no guidelines on who will distribute the money, and apparently no guardrails was actually considered to be the best of other alternatives. This was actually their best possible plan,” he revealed. - YouTube youtu.be
