Iran sends huge 2-word warning to Trump as US peace talks on the brink | World | News

Published by Sam Flores

Iran’s National Security Council has warned there will be “no retreat” in the war with the US – hours after Donald Trump piled pressure on Tehran to agree a peace deal. Secretary Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr said the country’s military had shown “fierce resistance and pinned the enemy to the ground”. He added: “Now more than ever, the country needs unity and cohesion so that the Americans and Zionists will also be disappointed in this regard.” This comes after two senior Iranian officials travelled to meet the Qatari Prime Minister in Doha to discuss a peace deal with the US. Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi will lead Tehran’s delegation, according to Reuters. They are joined by the governor of Iran’s central bank, there to negotiate the release of frozen funds. Mr Trump had claimed negotiations with Iran “are proceeding nicely” in a lengthy statement on his social media platform Truth Social. However, he warned that if a deal cannot be agreed upon, US forces would go “back to the battlefront … bigger …

Trump Media Scales Back Plans for Its Own Prediction Market

Published by skeptic

The odds that the Trump family will launch a full-fledged prediction market product this year just plummeted. Last year, the Trump Media and Technology Group announced Truth Predict, a partnership with the cryptocurrency company Crypto.com. The initial announcement touted Truth Predict as a “new product” that would allow Truth Social users to make trades on sports, inflation, elections, and more through an “embedded” prediction market service. “For too long, global elites have closely controlled these markets—with Truth Predict, we’re democratizing information and empowering everyday Americans to harness the wisdom of the crowd, turning free speech into actionable foresight,” then-CEO Devin Nunes said in the October 2025 press release. At the time, the company detailed how Truth Social users would be able to convert the platform’s existing “Truth gem” currency into Cronos cryptocurrency tokens, and then “apply” them to Truth Predict trades. Now, Trump Media is framing the project differently. In its latest public filing, the company indicated that the prediction market “remains in development,” but that its offering would be initially limited to a “marketing …

Here’s Why Trump Posted About Iran ‘Stealing’ the 2020 Election Hours After the US Attacked

Published by skeptic

At 2:30 am Eastern time on Saturday, President Donald Trump posted a video to his Truth Social account announcing that the US had joined Israel in launching attacks on Iran. His next post, just two hours later, appeared to suggest that the attacks were, at least in part, motivated by a wild claim that Iran had helped rig the 2020 US elections. “Iran tried to interfere in 2020, 2024 elections to stop Trump, and now faces renewed war with United States,” the president wrote on Truth Social. The post linked to an article on Just the News, a conspiracy-filled, pro-Trump outlet that offered no explanation for its claim beyond the vague assertion that Iran operated “a sophisticated election influence effort” in 2020. The White House did not respond to a request for comment on whether the alleged interference factored into the decision to attack Iran or what exactly the so-called interference amounted to. Trump has spent the years since 2020 boosting numerous baseless conspiracy theories about the 2020 election being rigged. Since his return to …

Donald Trump has shared a photograph of a man who appears to be Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, hours after the United States launched a military strike on Venezuela. The image, posted on the social media platform Truth Social, was accompanied with the caption “Nicolas Maduro on board the USS Iwo Jima” and was posted from the US President’s account. The man, claimed by the President to be Mr Maduro, can be seen wearing a dark cover over his eyes and headphones on his ears. The US launched an attack on the country, following months of rising tensions between the two nations. A daring raid was carried out by United States Special Operations forces, including the unit involved in the killing of al-Qaeda leader, Osama bin Laden. Mr Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, have been captured in Caracas and are being taken to the US, American officials said. They have been indicted in New York for drug and gun offenses. Mr Trump released the image online minutes before speaking at a press conference at his …
