America just walked away from a deal with Iran
Donald Trump just shut the door on any Iran deal.
He posted it on Truth Social a few hours ago.
He says quote "We don't need a deal with Iran".
And in the same post, he says quote "We've got their money, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and we've got their Strait".
So that's Trump saying the naval blockade and Iran's frozen money already got America what it wanted. Nothing left to talk about.
Here's the twist. Until this morning, JD Vance was doing the exact opposite.
The Wall Street Journal reported a day earlier that Vance was becoming America's lead negotiator with Iran.
He was even considering a face-to-face meeting with Mohsen Rezaei. Rezaei runs Iran's Supreme National Security Council, and he used to command the Revolutionary Guard.
Vance had already sent him a letter. Through Qatari mediators. Asking to restart full peace talks. And offering to lead them himself.
The same report says Trump had told his own aides he was fine with it. He'd given Vance the authority to negotiate.
So in one day, Trump went from backing Vance's talks to killing them outright.
And here's the part that has nothing to do with Iran at all.
Trump says Vance should now put his complete attention on what Trump calls corruption in Democrat-run American states. He named Minnesota, California and Illinois.
So a foreign war and a domestic political errand, in the same sentence.
It comes after a rough few weeks for Vance. He's publicly blamed the Iran war for the Republican Party's defeat in this month's midterms, where Democrats took both chambers of Congress.
