Trump: ‘this has been a successful 40 hours in China’

Trump Refuses to Reveal Whether He Would Defend Taiwan

The Ayatollahs and the Mullahs are watching American cable news.

They see Democrats scream “illegal war.” They watch anchors call our own President the bigger threat.

Regime leaders watch Schumer, Jeffries, Pelosi, and AOC do their jobs for them on live television.

So why would they ever take a deal? Why negotiate in good faith?

The mullahs and generals have been told, over and over, by half of Washington and 90 percent of the press, that all they have to do is wait. Stall. Hold out. The Democrats will do the rest. The media will do the rest.

Our latest meme nails exactly what is happening.

Trump, Rubio, and Hegseth swinging the Maximum Pressure hammer at a cracking Iranian regime.

Schumer, Jeffries, Pelosi, AOC, and a wall of media microphones scrambling to hold the pedestal together before it collapses.

Look at it. Whose side are these people actually on?

And now we are right back to the brink.

“Trump is going to hit them a bit,” one administration official told Israel’s Channel 12. Trump just rejected Tehran’s peace offer outright, calling it “a piece of garbage” and the current ceasefire “unbelievably weak.”

If the war resumes in the coming days, and every signal says it will, remember exactly how we got here.

Iran did not hold out because they are strong. They held out because they were told they could win the waiting game.

They were told American voters would crack first. They were told American media would carry their water for free.

They were told correctly.

So when the shooting starts again, do not let a single person forget the names on that cartoon.

Schumer. Jeffries. Pelosi. AOC. Every anchor screaming about Trump while the mullahs sleep soundly in Tehran.

Whose side are Democrats and the mainstream media on? Name the worst offender in the comments. Then share this so every American sees who is propping up the regime.

  • China’s Foreign Ministry says the Iran war has caused “disasters” in the Middle East, after US President Donald Trump’s visit to meet with his counterpart, President Xi Jinping.
  • The US president and Xi discussed the opening of the Strait of Hormuz, the White House said, with the Chinese leader agreeing that the waterway “must remain open to support the free flow of energy”.
  • Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says the US is sending “contradictory messages” on negotiations, further complicating the process.
  • Dozens of vessels including Chinese-owned have passed through the Strait of Hormuz under Iran’s “management protocols”, the Revolutionary Guard says, as Presidents Donald Trump and Xi Jinping discuss the crucial waterway.
  • Iran’s Foreign Minister Araghchi has denounced the US and Israel for “expansionism and warmongering” saying instability in the Middle East is a “lose-lose proposition for all sides – including the aggressors”.
  • Iranian officials are saying the strait is not fully open and not fully closed. They say it is open to everyone, except their adversaries. They are trying to put this grand strategy into practice.

Marco Rubio says US ‘not asking’ for China’s help on Iran

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has insisted the US doesn’t need China’s help on Iran while reiterating that President Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping found “common ground” on the Strait of Hormuz.

“We’re not asking for China’s help. We don’t need their help,” Rubio told NBC.

Trump: ‘this has been a successful 40 hours in China’

We were told the US and China were looking to establish a “Board of Trade” to oversee commerce between the two countries.

There’s been no official announcement about that.

But a lot of what Trump wanted to do here, he will think he has achieved.

He talked about selling more planes to China. According to Trump, Boeing is leaving with a deal for 200 jets.

The US also expects to sell more agricultural products to China, in what could be billions in sales over the next three years.

That would be a success for Trump.

He also says there has been progress with the idea of China opening up its markets. That’s why so many US companies were on the trip here.

All in all, Trump will feel this has been a successful 40 hours in China.

But remember, this is just the first of three more expected meetings that the leaders will have this year – two at summits later in the year, and then, of course, an expected state visit by Xi Jinping to Washington, DC in September.

For ISIS (Sunni Muslims) Shi’a are “Rafidite dogs.”

Islamic State Kills Shi’ite Cleric in Damascus

ISIS — the Islamic State — is opposed not only to non-Muslims (Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists), but also to those who profess a brand of Islam that ISIS deems illegitimate. For the fanatical Sunnis of ISIS, this means the Shi’a, whom many Sunnis, even those outside ISIS, regard as Infidels (kuffar).

These Sunnis describe Shi’a as “Rafidite dogs.” “Rafidi” means “rejectors”, and here the “rejectors” referred to are the Shi’a, who “rejected” the caliphates of Abu Bakr and Umar. Some Sunni groups, especially those whom Salafi or Wahhabi interpretations influence, and who rely on scholars such as Ibn Taymiyyah, view Shia doctrines — such as the accusation that the Quran is incomplete, reverence for Imams, and cursing of the Companions (Sahaba) — as “vile and evil” acts of apostasy or polytheism.

The Sunni hatred of the Shi’a has led to wholesale killings of Shi’a believers. In Pakistan, for example, there is a Sunni group, Sipah-e-Sahaba, that attacks Shia mosques and madrasas, and kills Shi’a individuals. According to Stanford University’s “Mapping Militant Organizations,” as of February 2012, the “primary methods” of Sipah-e-Sahaba were targeted killings of prominent Shi’as – including political activists, doctors, businessmen, engineers, and intellectuals. The Shi’a have sometimes fought back, and assassinated some of the Sipah-e-Sahaba leaders, including Haq Nawaz Jhangvi in 1990, Isar ul-Qasmi in 1991, Zia ul-Rehman Farooqi in 1997, and Azam Tariq in 2003.

In Afghanistan, the Sunni fanatics of the Taliban have killed the Shi’a, bombing their mosques, killing them at checkpoints, and randomly selecting Shi’a for execution whenever the spirit moves them. The Taliban have repeatedly carried out massacres of the Hazara, an ethnic minority whose members are Shi’a. The Shia have been subject to at least ten mass killings. The worst of those massacres was carried out in August 1998 at Mazar-e Sharif, where the Taliban massacred an estimated 8,000 Hazara civilians. Many thousands more Shi’a Hazara died between 2002 and 2022, with both the Taliban and ISIS targeting unarmed civilians in mosques and schools. In addition, the Taliban have been systematically forcing Hazaras off their land and homes.

The ISIS killing of an important Shi’a cleric in Damascus on May 1 is just the latest example of Sunnis killing Shi’a religious figures, as they have done in the past in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

How the Palestinian Authority brainwashes kids to love jihad terror, glorify jihadis, and seek ‘martyrdom’

The IDF has confirmed the elimination of Anas Muhammad Ibrahim Hamed, identified as a Nukhba commander involved in the October 7 massacre at the Nova music festival.
 
According to Israeli reports, Hamed was part of Hamas’s elite “Nukhba” unit, the same force that led the brutal cross-border assault targeting civilians that day.
He was reportedly killed in a precise strike in central Gaza after being tracked by Israeli intelligence and assessed as an ongoing threat to troops operating in the area.
 
For context, the Nova festival attack saw militants storm the site, opening fire on fleeing civilians and abducting hostages in one of the deadliest incidents of October 7.
 
Israel has repeatedly stated it is systematically targeting individuals directly involved in those attacks. This strike appears to be part of that ongoing effort.

The Gulf Countries Are Building a Middle East that Iran Cannot Tolerate

For decades, Iran’s leadership has opposed the direction much of the Gulf has taken politically, economically and diplomatically. Today, that opposition is increasingly being expressed through direct attacks on the states’ infrastructure and way of life. Since Feb. 28, the Iranian regime has launched 549 ballistic missiles, 29 cruise missiles and 2,260 drones at the UAE.

The Iranian regime presents its model as the only legitimate form of Islamic governance. Yet, Gulf states have demonstrated that economic growth, global engagement, and religious life can develop together without the same degree of state control.

US demanded Hormuz opening, enriched uranium during Islamabad talks: Iranian official

Mahmoud Nabavian, member of Iran’s negotiating team, says the US had two main demands during the Islamabad talks: Complete opening of the Strait of Hormuz and the withdrawal of all 60 percent enriched material from Iran.

In comments shared by ISNA news outlet, Nabavian is quoted as saying:

  • Iran’s Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf said that although the US had the ability to strike Iran’s infrastructure, Iran could also “raze all the infrastructure in the region to the ground in less than half a day”
  • The US said $6 billion in frozen assets be released if Iran cooperated with the demands
  • After contacting Trump, Vance suggested negotiations continue based on the plan presented by the US and Ghalibaf had agreed

‘Silenced No More’: Report Details Sexual Violence Was ‘Deliberate, Systematic’ in Hamas’ Oct. 7 Massacre

A major new report from a two-year investigation documenting Hamas’s October 7 atrocities concluded that sexual violence during the terror group’s massacre and subsequent hostage captivity was “deliberate,” “systematic,” and “integral” to the attack, detailing what researchers described as recurring patterns of rape, sexual torture, mutilation, and abuse carried out across massacre sites, abduction routes, and throughout the prolonged captivity of hostages in Gaza.

The 300-page report — titled Silenced No More: Sexual Terror Unveiled — was released Tuesday by the Civil Commission on October 7th Crimes by Hamas Against Women and Children following a two-year investigation into the atrocities committed during Hamas’s October 7, 2023, invasion of southern Israel, the deadliest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, in which roughly 1,200 people were murdered and more than 250 taken hostage into Gaza.

Trump attacks media over Iran war coverage

Trump has hit out against media coverage of the US-Israeli war on Iran, saying that reports that Tehran is “doing well” militarily against Washington amount to “virtual TREASON”.

“They are aiding and abetting the enemy! All it does is give Iran false hope when none should exist. These are American cowards that are rooting against our Country,” the US president wrote on Truth Social, without specifying which media reports he was referring to exactly.

“Only Losers, Ingrates, and Fools are able to make a case against America!” he added.

Trump and other senior members of his administration have lambasted US media outlets for critical coverage of the war.

Citing unnamed officials familiar with the matter, CNN reported this week that Trump “personally pushed” the US Department of Justice to issue subpoenas to reporters covering the war in a push to identify their sources.

Trump Rejects Iran’s Latest Response as ‘Totally Unacceptable’ — ‘They Will Be Laughing No Longer’

Looks like we’re back in a hot war with the mullah regime.

“They’ll Be Laughing No Longer”: Trump Rejects Iran Peace Deal Response As “Totally Unacceptable”

Iran had been “playing games with the United States, and the rest of the world, for 47 years…”

President Donald Trump on Sunday rejected Iran’s latest response to the American offer to end the conflict as “TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE,” warning Tehran it would “be laughing no longer” after reports indicated the regime refused key U.S. nuclear demands while pushing for sanctions relief, frozen assets, an end to the naval blockade, and control over the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran submitted its response Sunday through Pakistani mediators following nearly 10 days of deliberations over the latest American proposal, which reportedly centered on ending hostilities, restoring maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, and opening a roughly 30-day negotiation window over Tehran’s nuclear program, uranium enrichment activities, and stockpile of highly enriched uranium — issues Trump has repeatedly insisted must end with Iran permanently barred from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

Israel destroys Yemeni international airport following attack on Ben Gurion

Iran huffs & puffs:

Iran warned European countries not to join the United States and Israel in the war against Tehran, saying any government that participates in the campaign could face retaliation.

Update:

Several foreign airlines such as Germany’s national carrier Lufthansa have suspended flights to Tel Aviv following the Houthi air strike that hit the Ben Gurion International Airport.

Israeli airstrikes hit airport and power station in the Houthi-controlled capital city of Sana’a, Yemen. May 6, 2025. (X)

Update:

Israeli warplanes strike Sana’a International Airport in Yemen’s Houthi-occupied capital city, destroying the passenger hall and other buildings, and bombs power station days after a Houthi missile exploded outside Israel’s largest airport.

By David Rosenberg, World Israel News

Israeli warplanes on Tuesday afternoon bombed multiple targets in the Yemeni capital city of Sana’a, days after pro-Iranian rebel forces in Yemen launched a missile that exploded next to Israel’s largest air travel hub.

According to preliminary reports, IDF fighter jets struck the Dhaban power station, just outside of Sana’a, along a power distribution facility and a cement factory.

In addition, Israeli warplanes hit the Sana’a International Airport.

Multiple aircraft were destroyed in the strike, and the passenger hall and flight service areas were also hit.

At least two dozen hits have been reported in the Israeli airstrikes.

The attacks came shortly after the Israeli military warned Yemen of an impending attack on the Sana’a International Airport, calling for its evacuation.

IDF Col. Avichay Adraee, the Israeli military’s chief Arabic spokesperson, issued an “urgent warning to everyone in the vicinity of Sanaa International Airport: We urge you to evacuate the airport area immediately and to warn others nearby to do the same. Failure to do so endangers your lives.”
