Trump adds fuel to the Meloni fire: You’re no friend of mine

Meloni is done. Cooked like a goose. You can stick a fork in it.

“I was disappointed with Italy. I was disappointed with the UK, Germany, and France. We were disappointed with most of them. Spain is a horror show,” Trump said.

The EUnuch’s did not back Trump’s military campaign against Iran and refused active participation in the conflict, saying “this is not Europe’s war”.

Iran accuses NATO of ‘complicity’ in US war: What role did EU nations play?

US President Donald Trump meets with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC, on June 24, 2026

NATO boss tries to convince Trump that European allies were there for the US during war on Iran, revealing new details on the logistics behind the war.

Since the beginning of the US-Israel war on Iran, President Donald Trump has been critical of his European allies for not supporting the military campaign against Tehran.

On Wednesday, the United States president expressed his displeasure with members of the transatlantic alliance during a meeting with NATO chief Mark Rutte.

NATO’s Rutte, who is visiting the US in an attempt to ease the transatlantic tensions, defended Europe. He highlighted Europe’s involvement in Iran war in media interviews in an attempt to appease the Trump administration.

Rutte’s a$$ is on the line. He tries to save it.

 

ROME (AP) — The Italian government closed ranks on Friday to slam U.S. President Donald Trump over his claim that Premier Giorgia Meloni had “begged” for a photo with him during the recent G7 summit, a pushback that suggested America’s longtime European ally had had enough of Trump’s boasting and criticism.

AP lies just like her.

Italy’s foreign minister canceled a trip to the U.S. after Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni denied President Trump’s claim that she “begged” for a photo at the G7 summit. Meloni called Trump’s statement “completely fabricated” and offensive.

Stefanovic criticizes war crime law changes

About 24 hours before #Stefanovic boarded the flight, his social media channels lit up with him declaring he was “fired up” by former Australian Federal Police superintendent David Craig’s suggestions that changed the legal definition of a war crime of murder just a year before the nation’s most decorated soldier, Ben Roberts-Smith, was charged with killing non-combatants while serving in Afghanistan.

“Ben Roberts-Smith, set up? I am shocked,” Stefanovic says sarcastically in the clip posted across his social media channels, which would quickly become the talk of Nine’s newsrooms. “It sounds like a targeted adjustment to me as this retrospective shift drags BRS’s service record right into the crosshairs of these new laws. “And get this, the changes made only affect alleged war crimes of murder by soldiers, not ISIS brides. Are you kidding? seems to me that we are perfectly comfortable putting a target on the backs of the men and women who fought for this country while giving a free pass to ones who turned their backs on it.”

‘Israel-Lebanon deal not possible without Hezbollah’s consent’

That means there won’t be a deal. Hezbollah will not disarm, Iran will keep the supply lines open and Israel will keep bombing them until there’s nothing left to bomb.

The agreement between Lebanon and Israel is an “existential threat” to Hezbollah’s presence, Al Jazeera’s Ali Hashem says.

Despite that, the agreement, which includes disarming Hezbollah, can’t be enforced without the group’s consent.

“Without Hezbollah’s consent, this is not going to happen,” Hashem said in Al Jazeera’s Doha studio. “This is going to be another recipe for another confrontation. The Lebanese government isn’t capable of imposing this deal. It’s not the de facto force on the ground.”

The deal, signed earlier today, is about “putting Hezbollah in the corner,” Hashem said.

The Trump administration has said Iran’s unfrozen money will be used to buy US agricultural products, which will then be provided to Iran.

The US rejects any nation’s claim over Hormuz, says Rubio in Bahrain

The US will not accept that Hormuz belongs to any nation-state, Rubio says while meeting with Bahraini leaders in Manama.

“We want a deal with Iran, we don’t want a deal at any price,” he added.

  • US Secretary of State Rubio tells Bahraini leaders in Manama that the US wants to ensure agreement with Iran takes into account the “interest of allies“.
  • Iran’s Revolutionary Guard has rejected a new shipping lane through the Strait of Hormuz, warning that any vessel using it will be in danger.
  • The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency says visits to Iran’s nuclear sites will take place, but Tehran says inspections will only happen once a final deal is reached with the US.

Latest updates:

  • Israel continues to attack southern Lebanon as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the Israeli military is “not going to withdraw” from occupied areas.
  • Lebanese group Hezbollah has accused Israel of targeting civilians trying to return to their homes in Lebanon’s south, killing two people and wounding a third.
  • After a meeting in Bahrain, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says Washington and its Gulf allies have rejected any Iranian fees or restrictions on transit through the Strait of Hormuz.
  • Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has warned against any crossings of the strait without authorisation, as the critical waterway remains a major source of tension.

‘The only thing the U.S. has to show in return is a document that amounts to an unconditional surrender’
 
When Trump said that he would only accept unconditional surrender from the Islamic Republic of Iran, nobody thought that he meant that the U.S. would surrender unconditionally to Iran. But that is what his “deal” amounts to. And it all comes from poor planning on the part of his slapdash administration.

Karl Stefanovic’s interview with Tommy Robinson makes it clear that we live in a dictatorship

Australian TV presenter Karl Stefanovic has expressed his shock at a harrowing report on the UK’s Pakistani Muslim grooming gangs in successive interviews with Tommy Robinson and Holly Valance.
“I don’t understand why it’s not a national crisis”
Karl Stefanovic has released a statement after it was confirmed he had left Nine, saying he wished his time at the network “wasn’t ending like this”.
The longtime ‘Today’ host thanked viewers and colleagues after more than two decades with the broadcaster, following controversy over his independent podcast interview with Tommy Robinson.

Billionaire James Packer has defended his long time friend Karl Stefanovic, saying he did not believe the controversial Tommy Robinson podcast interview was “that bad”.
Elon Musk has now weighted in on the story too, replying “Wow” to a post about the furore.

Al Bozo Claims He is “Mainstream” After Karl Stefanovic is Sacked For Tommy Robinson Interview

Update:

One Nation Leader Pauline Hanson claims Channel Nine would be “bloody stupid” to sack Karl Stefanovic. “They’re bloody stupid to do it,” Ms Hanson told Sky News host Andrew Bolt. “They’ve gone so far to the left, Channel Nine; they’re making a big mistake.”

‘Impact’: Karl Stefanovic issued warning by Anthony Albanese as PM weighs in on Nine axing controversy

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has issued a warning after being questioned on Karl Stefanovic’s imminent sacking by Nine over his Tommy Robinson podcast.

Anthony Albanese has weighed into the Karl Stefanovic controversy, suggesting the broadcaster had strayed too far from the mainstream.

Nine is expected to drop Today show host Stefanovic imminently after the presenter received widespread criticism for interviewing UK far-right activist Tommy Robinson.

Speaking at a Committee for Economic Development of Australia event at Parliament House on Thursday, Mr Albanese said he would not directly comment on the drama engulfing the network.

However, the Prime Minister, who appeared on The Karl Stefanovic Show earlier this year, did have a warning for media personalities like Stefanovic.

“You go down that road and you go further and further out on the edges of what is mainstream political debate in this country, and you know, I think that can have an impact.”

“Australia is facing a complex mix of threats, thread level ‘too complex’, spooks need more powers, resources & laws to keep Australians safe”

Trusting government spooks with ever more power over Australians instead of targeting Islam with the full force of existing laws is self-defeating. Al Bozo & Burka Tony have already derailed the Royal Commission looking into the Bondi Massacre  by excluding Islam from their findings, which is a disgrace.

The Albanese government has been accused of a “complete mismanagement” of the ISIS brides cohort after the nation’s top spy addressed the ongoing terror threat against Australia.

The Coalition has claimed there is “little prospect” of a reduction in Australia’s terror threat from “probable” to “possible”, with the party accusing the Albanese government of a “complete mismanagement” of the ISIS brides cohort.

On Wednesday, Australian Security Intelligence Organisation Director-General Mike Burgess warned the nation faced a more volatile security environment marked by rising social tensions, espionage and politically motivated violence.

The nation’s terror threat remains at “probable”, with knowledge of a specific planned attack needed to escalate it further to “expected”.

In his address, Mr Burgess stressed: “I do not believe the system was designed for a situation like the one we now face”.

On Wednesday, Mr Burgess warned the nation faced a more volatile security environment marked by rising social tensions. Picture: NewsWire/Martin Ollman Shadow home affairs minister Jonathon Duniam has demanded the Albanese government ensure ASIO’s warnings are “taken extremely seriously”.

“It is fair to say that Australia is facing a complex mix of threats – including from foreign interference, espionage, online radicalisation, and antisemitic violence,” he told SkyNews.com.au.

“Religiously motivated violent extremism, including Islamist extremism, clearly remains one of the most serious and most enduring of these threats.

“The Albanese government’s complete mismanagement of the ISIS Brides’ returns to Australia has trained a very clear spotlight on the need for far better prioritisation of community safety.

Negotiating With Iran is a Humiliation Ritual

You can’t negotiate with Islamic terrorists. All you can do is be taken hostage by them.

BY

Dr. Seyed Abbas Araghchi

Negotiating with Islamic terrorists in general is a humiliation ritual. The moment you agree, you’ve lost face, shown weakness and it is now their mandate to humiliate you as much possible in order to extract maximum advantage while failing to keep any promises that they make.

Our leaders still haven’t learned this most basic fact from history. Including American history. (In two recent articles, “The Truth About the First Muslim Country to Recognize America” and “America Has Been Fighting Islamic Attacks for 242 Years”, I discuss how Adams and Jefferson learned this the hard way, trying to make treaties with Muslims in Algiers and Morocco, only to have them demand tribute and attack us anyway.)

So Iran is now doing exactly what I and anyone who knows anything about Islam and geopolitics predicted it would do, closing and opening the strait and demanding more. Currently Iran is demanding that the United States stop Israel from fighting back against Hezbollah attacks in Lebanon.

Assuming that J.D. Vance secures a blank check for Iran’s terrorists in Lebanon, there will be more demands, more closures and the humiliation rituals will go on until we wake up and stop jumping every time the terrorists shout… or until Iran’s ‘Death to America’ motto has been achieved.

You can’t negotiate with Islamic terrorists. All you can do is be taken hostage by them. Choosing to negotiate with them is choosing to be taken hostage. The moment we stop negotiating, the hostage crisis ends.

U.N. Nuclear Chief Rafael Grossi: Iran Inspections ‘Will Indeed Take Place’

Rafael Grossi, the head of the United Nations’ International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), told reporters on Wednesday that his agency would “indeed” conduct inspections of Iranian nuclear sites, as the Iranian terror regime agreed to allow such inspections in its peace deal with America.

Looks familiar? You’re right. We have seen this before:

Secretary of State John Kerry apologized for suggesting that Israel risks becoming an Apartheid state but this did not satisfy Israel’s distrust of the peace process after Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas made a new unity agreement with Hamas, which the U.S. recognizes as a terrorist organization.

Hezbollah Leader: Israel is Censoring the Quran

Hezbollah Secretary General Naim Qassem gave an Ashura speech on Sunday where he came up with a new Jewish conspiracy theory.
He stated, “Israel, through its presence and influence, has imposed in some countries that verses that speak about the Jews should not be taught so that future generations do not learn the history of the Jews and remain ignorant of historical facts.”
Essentially he is saying that some Muslim countries, under Israel influence, are not teaching the verses of the Quran that are negative towards Jews.
Which means that the head of Hezbollah just admitted that the Quran is antisemitic.

Iran says US to unfreeze $12bn in funds

That can’t be. That is simply not happening.

  • Iran’s top negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf says an agreement has been reached with the United States to release $12bn in frozen Iranian funds.
  • Trump says Tehran agreed to allow international nuclear inspections and any released Iranian assets will be solely used to buy US agricultural products.

US and Iran can work together to reopen Strait of Hormuz, Ghalibaf says

Iran’s chief negotiator says the strait will never return to the way it was before the war but Iran will fully comply with international law.

So far, there has not been any direct statement from Iran on whether inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will be let back into the country.

  • Iran’s top negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf says an agreement has been reached with the US to release $12bn in frozen Iranian funds.
  • This comes after the US announced a temporary easing of sanctions to allow the sale of Iranian oil and petrochemicals until August 21.
  • US President Donald Trump says Tehran has agreed to allow international nuclear inspections and that any released Iranian assets will be used to buy US agricultural products.
  • Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says Israeli troops will continue to occupy southern Lebanon and “demolish” Hezbollah infrastructure.

Lebanon

A new round of US-mediated negotiations between Israel and Lebanon begins today in Washington and is due to last until Thursday.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • Lebanon is represented by Ambassador Nada Moawad, while the Israeli delegation is headed by Ambassador Yechiel Leiter. US officials are also participating in the talks.
  • The negotiations mark the fifth round between the two sides.
  • The latest discussions come after US-Iran negotiations resulted in a ceasefire agreement on June 19 and the creation of a “Lebanon de-confliction cell” tasked with supporting efforts to end Israeli attacks in the country. The ceasefire has largely held.
  • Lebanon is seeking Israel’s withdrawal from the south of the country, where the Israeli military have established a so-called “buffer zone” that encompasses about 6 percent of Lebanese territory.
  • Israel says it is seeking the “disarmament” of Hezbollah.
  • Hezbollah says the talks should be limited to “mutual security” and that its weapons must be kept off the table.

Here’s what happened overnight:

  • Iran says technical talks in Switzerland with the US have successfully concluded, and that the next phase of negotiations will involve the high-level political committee overseeing the mediation.
  • Iran’s Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has defended the decision to hold talks with the US, saying Iranian delegates went to Switzerland to end the bloodshed in Lebanon.
  • Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defence Minister Israel Katz and Chief of the General Staff Eyal Zamir say Israeli troops will continue to occupy southern Lebanon.
  • The UN says Sunday marked the first time its peacekeepers detected no air attacks in Lebanon since March 2.
  • Oman’s Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi reaffirms commitment to “toll-free passage” in the Strait of Hormuz after talks with Iranian diplomats in Muscat.

Socialists Ruining Spain With Illegal Migrants

It’s better to call them unassimilable savages. Spaniards will pay for this in blood.

Socialist Spain to Grant Amnesty to Half Million Illegal Migrants

Over 900,000 amnesty requests have been submitted…

Spain: Experts Predict Basic Services ‘Collapse’ Driven by Migrant Mass Amnesty

Spain: Experts Predict Basic Services ‘Collapse’ Driven by Migrant Mass Amnesty

The sheer amount of roughly one million illegal migrants in Spain seeking amnesty could lead to a “collapse” of the nation’s basic services such as housing, education, or security, experts warned.

Spain is presently in the final weeks of a widely-criticized mass amnesty process launched by the government of socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez that aims to grant half a million illegal migrants with “legal” residence status, work permits, and other benefits.

Despite the initial “half a million” estimates stated by Spanish officials in January, officials recently acknowledged that over 900,000 amnesty requests had been submitted by migrants, confirming estimates reported in mid-June

The Spanish newspaper ABC reports that the sheer number of applicants — almost double the government’s own estimates — has raised alarms among economists, demographers, housing specialists, and state security officials, all of which warned to the outlet of the “collapse” of basic services that the mass amnesty process could end up causing in Spain.

Alejandro Macarrón Larumbe, a demographer at the Center for Social Studies, Training, and Analysis (CEU-CEFAS), warned to ABC that Spain’s housing crisis will further deepen and worsen as a result of the incoming influx of migrants with “legal” status. Macarrón Larumbe affirmed that an orderly, temporal reduction of migration in Spain could instead have an opposite effect and alleviate the housing crisis.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez Is Not Just An Antisemite — He’s Also a Crook

The people of Spain are now fed up with Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez. Not because he recognized a “state of Palestine.” Not because he has put in place a boycott of all goods made in Judea and Samaria. Not because he has threatened to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for “war crimes.” Not because he has now put a permanent embargo on all weapons that might be sent to Israel. No, the people of Spain are against Pedro Sánchez because he runs the most corrupt regime since the time of the late, unlamented Fascist — in the true sense — Generalissimo Francisco Franco. Sánchez, his wife, his brother, and his closest allies have all been implicated in overlapping corruption scandals.
