President Trump Holds a Press Conference, Mar. 9, 2026 (Iran war is about to end)
1. Military Operations and Iran
Unprecedented Military Success: The President characterized the military action against Iran as a "military success the likes of which people have never seen," claiming the Iranian navy, air force, and air defenses have been largely neutralized.
Neutralizing Nuclear Capabilities: A key highlight was the use of B2 bombers to eliminate Iran's nuclear capabilities, which the President claimed were only 2 to 4 weeks away from completion.
Leadership Vacuum: He noted that two tiers of Iranian leadership have been "wiped out" and expressed disappointment in the selection of the new Supreme Leader, suggesting it leads to the same old problems.
Casualties and Mission: While acknowledging the loss of 8 American service members, the President stated that the families he met at Dover urged him to "finish the mission."
2. Relations with Russia and Ukraine
Call with Putin: The President described a "very good" and "constructive" call with Vladimir Putin.
Ukraine Conflict: He acknowledged the deep "hatred" between Putin and Zelenskyy, noting they seem unable to reach an agreement. However, he urged Putin to be "more helpful" by ending the Russia-Ukraine war.
3. Cuba and Venezuela Strategy
Cuba Negotiations: The President mentioned that Cuba is in a dire humanitarian and economic state (lacking fuel and money) and is looking to negotiate.
The "Marco Rubio" Factor: He expressed high confidence in Secretary of State Marco Rubio as a negotiator, noting his fluency in the language and trust among Cuban-Americans.
The Venezuela Model: Trump praised the current partnership with Venezuela (specifically mentioning "Delcy"), highlighting the successful processing of millions of barrels of oil in Houston refineries.
4. Domestic Policy: The "Save America Act"
Legislative Ultimatums: The President stated he would not sign any bills until the "Save America Act" is passed.
Key Provisions:
Voter ID: Mandatory photo ID and proof of citizenship for voting.
Mail-in Voting Reform: Ending widespread mail-in voting (with strict exceptions for military, sick, or disabled).
Sports: Separation of men’s and women’s sports.
Transgender Policy: Banning transgender surgeries for children.
5. Energy and Economy
Lowering Oil Prices: He emphasized the administration's commitment to keeping oil prices low, despite the artificial spikes caused by recent military operations.
6. Internal Administration Dynamics
Alignment with VP: When asked about disagreements with the Vice President regarding Iran, Trump stated they are "getting along very well," though he noted the VP was perhaps "a little less enthusiastic" about the initial strikes.

Elon. Here's an idea. To make Tesla’s Optimus a massive hit, you should offer continuous prize money and have it compete against humans in sports.
Table tennis, in particular, is a sport where having a practice partner is essential. If a proper model is developed, there isn't a single table tennis club that wouldn't buy one.
As seen in the videos, Optimus will likely develop its own techniques and skills that are currently unknown to humans. @realDonaldTrump@elonmusk@JDVance
@elonmusk Elon, I've been thinking about next-generation charging for robotaxis. Kind of like the aerial refueling concept used in aviation. If this becomes technically feasible someday, I think it would be incredibly cool.
@elonmusk Elon! How about letting Optimus livestream for 24 hours on X or Youtube?
I believe he will be the best streamer.
