The Strait of Hormuz is not just another stretch of water. It is the beating artery of the global economy — a narrow corridor through which nearly one-fifth of the world’s oil supply flows. When Iran began choking that artery during the ongoing war, oil prices surged past $100 per barrel, sending shockwaves through global markets and threatening the energy security of the free world. And now President Donald Trump has done something Washington elites rarely do anymore: he tol

Tensions in the Middle East surged dramatically this week after Iranian officials issued a chilling threat against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, vowing to “pursue and kill” him as the conflict between Iran and the U.S.–Israel alliance enters its third week. The threat reportedly came from Iran’s powerful Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), which declared that if Netanyahu is still alive, it will continue working to hunt him down with “all our strength.” The

In what critics are calling the next phase of the political war against President Donald Trump, Democrats in Congress are quietly preparing a sweeping campaign of investigations targeting businesses, universities, and even law firms that worked with the Trump administration. According to a report, Democratic lawmakers are already discussing how they could use subpoena power to launch aggressive probes if they regain control of Congress after the 2026 midterm elections. The di

In the history of modern geopolitics, one fact has remained constant: the United States is the most powerful military force on Earth. Yet today, Iran’s new supreme leader is choosing confrontation instead of common sense. Following the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran installed his son Mojtaba Khamenei, a figure widely described as more hardline and confrontational than his father. His first statements as leader have been filled with threats—promising continued attacks a

As tensions explode in the Middle East and the world’s most important oil chokepoint teeters on the brink, President Donald J. Trump now faces one of the most consequential strategic decisions of his presidency. Analysts say the escalating confrontation with Iran around the Strait of Hormuz leaves Washington with only three realistic paths forward—each carrying significant risk. The crisis intensified after Iran reportedly laid naval mines in the strait, a waterway responsibl

The White House is urging Congress to immediately pass the SAVE America Act, a sweeping election integrity bill that would require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote and strengthen voter identification laws across the nation. During a recent White House press briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt called the legislation “one of the most critical pieces of legislation in our nation’s history,” emphasizing that President Donald Trump wants Congress to act without

In a dramatic escalation of U.S. pressure on communist Cuba, President Donald Trump declared Monday that the island nation may face a “friendly takeover” as it collapses under economic and humanitarian crisis. Speaking at a news conference at Trump National Doral Miami, the president said Cuba is “down to fumes,” with no energy, no money, and a failing communist system that can no longer sustain itself. According to Trump, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is leading negoti

In a stunning geopolitical shift that could reshape the Middle East, Lebanon’s leadership has signaled it is ready to open direct negotiations with Israel for what officials describe as “permanent arrangements for security and stability” along the volatile border. The move comes as Lebanon’s government publicly accuses the Iranian-backed militant group Hezbollah of betraying the country by dragging it into a wider regional war tied to Iran’s confrontation with Israel. During

As the war against Iran intensifies under Operation Epic Fury, the British government appears to be stumbling—sending mixed signals about whether it will even deploy one of its powerful aircraft carriers to support Western allies in the Middle East. According to multiple reports, including the Financial Times, Downing Street has now downplayed the possibility of sending the Royal Navy’s flagship carrier HMS Prince of Wales to the region, despite earlier speculation that it mi

In a dramatic moment that exposes the brutality of the Iranian regime, five members of Iran’s women’s national soccer team are now under protection in Australia after refusing to return to Iran—where they fear persecution for defying the regime. The controversy erupted during the Women’s Asian Cup in Australia when several Iranian players stood silently during their national anthem before a match against South Korea. The quiet protest immediately triggered outrage from hardli

WASHINGTON, D.C.  —As the U.S.-Israel military campaign against Iran entered its tenth day, President Donald Trump delivered a clear message to the Islamic Republic’s newly installed leadership: America will not tolerate a continuation of the regime that has threatened the West for decades. Iran officially named Mojtaba Khamenei, the son of slain Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as the country’s new supreme leader following his father’s death during early strikes in the

WASHINGTON — President Donald J. Trump made it clear this weekend that America will not hesitate to act if Iran’s nuclear threat continues to endanger global security. Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump said he would not rule out deploying U.S. ground troops inside Iran, particularly to secure the regime’s stockpiles of enriched uranium. The remarks come as the United States and its allies intensify military pressure on Tehran following recent strikes targeting

RIYADH — In the early hours of Tuesday morning, the United States diplomatic mission in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, came under a brazen attack by Iranian drones — a direct challenge to American power and a grim milestone in the widening Middle East conflict. Two unmanned aerial vehicles, part of Tehran’s escalating campaign across the Gulf, struck the U.S. Embassy compound, igniting a fire and inflicting material damage on the building’s exterior, Saudi defense officials said. Off

The cost of confronting the Iranian regime is no longer theoretical. It is measured in American blood. The Pentagon confirmed that six U.S. service members have been killed in action in the growing conflict with Tehran. Two of those heroes were previously listed as unaccounted for until their remains were recovered from a U.S. facility struck during Iran’s initial wave of attacks. In a statement posted by U.S. Central Command, officials confirmed that major combat operations

In an extraordinary moment that underscores the stark new chapter in U.S. foreign policy, former Vice President Mike Pence publicly lauded President Donald Trump’s decision to unleash a joint U.S.–Israeli strike on Iran, calling it a “logical and just response to a decades-long campaign of bloodshed against Americans and our allies.” The remarks, made Monday, signal unwavering conservative support even as the conflict intensifies and American casualties mount. The joint offen

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Operation Epic Fury entered its third grueling day Thursday, with U.S. and Israeli forces intensifying strikes deep inside Iran, while Tehran’s ballistic missiles and drone salvos continued to rain across the Middle East and Eastern Mediterranean — drawing sharp warnings from global leaders and hard-line defenders of American strength. Trump Signals War Will Intensify In interviews over the past 24 hours, President Donald J. Trump made clear the military c

Donald Trump’s boldness met the moment this week when he authorized Operation Epic Fury — a decisive, U.S.-led strike package against Islamic Republic of Iran — after intelligence warned Tehran planned to launch ballistic missiles either preemptively or at the same time the United States moved, a senior U.S. official told reporters. The order, driven by a clear duty to protect American lives and bases across the Gulf, showed a president unwilling to gamble with national secur

In a dramatic escalation of global tensions that could define the foreign policy legacy of the Trump presidency, President Donald J. Trump issued a stark warning to Iran on Sunday after Tehran pledged it would strike “very hard” following recent U.S. and Israeli military action. Trump, responding on his social platform Truth Social to Iran’s threats, declared that any retaliation by Iran would be met with “a force that has never been seen before” — a declaration signaling Was

In a monumental shift in the Middle East balance of power, United States and Israeli forces struck at the core of Tehran’s theocratic tyranny today, with Israeli officials asserting that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been killed in massive coordinated military strikes. A photograph of the body was reportedly shown to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to senior officials. The unprecedented operation — described by the Pentagon as Operation

In what may be the most consequential military escalation in the Middle East in decades, newly released satellite imagery — first published by The New York Times — appears to show extensive destruction at the compound of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in Tehran following a coordinated Israeli-led airstrike early Saturday. Satellite imagery — released publicly and published in The New York Times  — shows destroyed buildings within the compound of Iran’s Supreme
