Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-MT) delivers an incredibly powerful speech about Iran.

Watch every second of this.

"Yesterday we saw the president of the United States and many others at Dover Air Force Base presiding over a ceremony that is very sacred to those of us who served, and that is a dignified return of remains from the war zone.

That process happens beginning in the war zone through Dover to the hometown of our fallen heroes. I participated in many of those ceremonies myself to include carrying friends of mine off the plane.

One of those is on this bracelet. He was cut in half by an Iranian EFP.

This regime that we are fighting does not care about our partisan politics. They don't care who you voted for, who you pray to, or where you live. They want to kill all of us. And they don't just say it, they actually do it, and they've been doing it for forty-seven years.

This is a war of choice. The Democrats are correct. It's a war of choice that was begun by a radical lunatic band of terrorists that took over a beautiful nation 47 years ago, took it over with brutality, force, and savagery. And the second they took it over, they didn't free their people, they didn't unleash the largest oil reserves in the world to build schools and bridges.

They took it over to murder their own people and to spread their disgusting ideology across the world, and that is exactly what they have been doing. They don't just say it and talk about it. You don't have to believe what they say. You can simply watch what they've done.

They have attacked families, women, children, innocent people. They don't just attack them and kill them, they rape them. They skin them alive on camera. They celebrate it. They honor those people who do disgusting things that we would put in jail for the rest of their lives in this country, and they do it for fun, and they pay them money to do it, and they're heroes to that nation.

They've done it to friends of mine. They've done it to families who've been in this chamber. And the fact that we sit here and listen to elected officials of this country defend these lunatics who want us all dead. They want all of you dead. They want all of us dead.

They don't want us to disappear with a snap of a finger. They want us to be raped, burned alive, and cut into pieces. Watch the video from October 7. That's what they want to happen from Maine to San Diego, from Seattle to Miami. They want this country turned into a burning husk of its former self, and you don't have to theorize that.

That's what they do. From the 1983 barracks bombing, where 280 Marines were vaporized in a morning, from USS Cole to the Achille Lauro, to every terrorist attack, from the Houthis, Hezbollah, Hamas. These are not humanitarian freedom organizations. They are death-dealing cults, and they want all of us to die brutal deaths.

William Buckley was abducted in 1985, an American military officer. He was skinned alive on camera by the Iranians. American prisoners of war who were captured. They were never called prisoners of war because they were captured by lunatic terrorists, so they were not subject to the Geneva Convention. They were captured and murdered, power drills through their brains. This is in Iraq. These are families that have dealt with this, and they've never gotten a single dime.

These families have never gotten restitution, and not a single president has ever stood up to them. Love Donald Trump or hate him, love his policies, hate ICE, love ICE, whatever. There's never been a single president who has stood up to Iran and hit back. For 47 years, our troops and our families have been absorbing attack after attack after attack all over the world.

And their radical ideology does not stop at the Persian Gulf. It doesn't stop at Tel Aviv. They want to do this everywhere. It's a global radical ideology, and we've been fighting it for half a century.

We didn't start this war. We did not, but we will finish it. And forever wars are not popular with anybody these days. Both sides of the love to attack our forever wars. And I can promise you, being someone overseas wearing the uniform, when you're fighting for your country, you don't care what party's in office, but you're fighting to defend your country, and you turn on the news and see your elected officials stabbing you in the back, telling you that you're failing, that you've failed every goal of the war, is what I just heard.

Last time I checked, we've wiped these bastards out. An occasional missile strike and boats in the straits, that's not military strength. Those are the flailings of a failing empire. Those are the flailings of a nation in collapse because they deserve it. So I encourage our colleagues on both sides of the aisle, whatever's politically convenient, whatever plays well on Twitter or Facebook, think about the people who are deployed right now, standing on that wall with a loaded weapon, who have volunteered to defend our country and our way of life.

Because they are there defending us in a just war, because we did not start a war with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. They started it with us 47 years ago, and their attacks have gone unanswered for half a century. It's time to fix this problem and make sure another generations of Americans does not have to fight this murderous, savage adversary."

People pretend the US-Israel Memorandum of Understanding is some generous act of charity, or that Washington is doing Israel a favor. That’s completely backwards and wrong.

If anything, the deal is heavily in America’s favor.

Here’s what the US gets:

Jointly developed missile defense: Iron Dome, David’s Sling, and Arrow. Boeing builds Arrow 3, Raytheon co-produces David’s Sling, Tamir interceptors are manufactured in US factories, and the US Army operates Iron Dome.

Better protection for American troops: Israeli Trophy systems protect US Abrams tanks. Iron Fist was selected for Bradley Fighting Vehicles. The LITENING targeting pod is a cornerstone of US precision strike capability. Even the Israeli bandage is standard issue in US military medical kits.

Combat-tested innovation: AI, drones, cyber, autonomous systems, battlefield medicine, and intelligence developed under real combat conditions, not in a laboratory.

The money largely stays in America: The overwhelming majority of the $3.8 billion is spent on American-made weapons, supporting US factories and workers. Israel Aerospace Industries alone works with more than 800 American suppliers across 44 states.

Proven loyalty: Israel canceled a $1 billion defense deal with China, absorbed roughly $350 million in losses, and repeatedly walked away from lucrative cooperation whenever it conflicted with American strategic interests.

Meanwhile, people who haven’t read a single page of the Memorandum of Understanding keep pretending the US is somehow being taken advantage of, or that Washington is in a position to “teach Israel a lesson” by threatening the agreement.

The reality is this:

America isn’t maintaining this partnership out of charity. It’s maintaining it because it serves American interests.

🚨🇨🇿Exclusive: Czech Foreign Minister Petr Macinka calls some EU countries "Islamist" and attacks their position on Israel

I interviewed Czech Foreign Minister Petr Macinka, one of Israel's strongest (and increasingly rare) allies in Europe, and a key force blocking EU sanctions against Israel.

Macinka reaffirmed the Czech Republic's commitment to veto any EU initiative against Israel, and revealed the pressure European countries have been exerting on Prague to change its position on Israel. That pressure, he said, included requests from fellow EU foreign ministers to abstain from votes on sanctions. "Of course we pay some political price for that, but I don't care." he said.

The Foreign Minister added that he opposed sanctions on far right Israeli minister Ben-Gvir and Smotrich because “these people do not deserve any additional publicity”, and expressed concerned that the progressive European left has “become mainstream”.

ISRAEL RANKED 11TH MOST POWERFUL COUNTRY IN THE WORLD...WITH ONLY 10M PEOPLE

A new 2026 global survey ranks Israel ahead of India, Canada, Türkiye and Italy in perceived international power.

The ranking measures military strength, economic influence, technology, strategic resources and diplomatic reach.

For a country of fewer than 10 million people, that is extraordinary.

The Nazi tattoo should have been enough. A lot of us won't ever forget that it wasn't.

[Newt Gingrich @newtgingrich]

Why is Israel getting blamed for trying to protect its citizens from hezbollah attacks? Iran funds and arms hezbollah, encourages them to kill israelis in israel and then blames israel for defending its own citizens. We should be focusing our anger on the iranian dictatorship not on a democracy fighting to protect its citizens

[Amjad Taha أمجد طه @amjadt25]

Trump was told by ONLY ONE country at the G7 that this was the WORST DEAL EVER and not to sign the TRAP.
Watching JD Vance's interviews in the Middle East felt like accidentally tuning into Iranian state TV. People kept checking the screen to make sure it still said "Vice President of the United States" and not "Spokesman for Tehran."

[Amjad Taha أمجد طه @amjadt25]

To Trump: In the Middle East, loyalty is currency. If you abandon your closest friend halfway through a fight and cut deals behind their back while leaving them exposed, don't expect anyone to trust your guarantees again. You told the world, "The U.S. and Israel carried out an operation against Iran," then walked away and left your ally standing alone.

In the Middle East, we don't judge friends by speeches; we judge them by who stays when the missiles fly. A person who abandons an ally halfway and cuts deals behind their back is not someone you call in a crisis.
You will say it's about American interests. Fine. But others also have interests, and they have memories. You can call it "America's interests." We call it something else: leaving your friends in the storm.

Before asking, "Why don't they defend themselves?" remember that countries like Israel did and are still doing so alone.

And also remember that the UAE defended itself, struck back forcefully, and banned the Muslim Brotherhood. Many of your countries in the West did neither.

The lesson is simple. If you can leave your closest friend exposed today, why should anyone trust your promises tomorrow? Maybe it's time for the Middle East to start thinking about alternatives.

And yes, when Iran strikes again, don't assume the Middle East will dial Washington. People don't call someone who might leak information to Turkey or cut a deal with Tehran while their friends are still under fire.

[Narendra Modi @narendramodi]

Thank you, my friend, for your most gracious wishes.

I fully agree with you. India-Israel friendship will continue to grow from strength-to-strength in the years to come.

[FBI Director Kash Patel @FBIDirectorKash]

🚨 Early this morning, @FBI and partners arrested 7 individuals on a 10 count indictment for allegedly targeting University of Michigan leaders and businesses in the Eastern Michigan region with violent threats and attacks.

The indictment alleges that after the October 7, 2023 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, these individuals - a group of college-aged adults - engaged in a coordinated campaign of violent, criminal acts seeking to pressure University of Michigan leaders and other businesses in the Eastern District of Michigan to cut off all ties with Israel.

The subjects allegedly vandalized the victims’ property, spray painted their homes with messages like “Intifada” and “Free Palestine,” left threatening notes on their doors, and even broke windows of the victims’ homes - throwing glass jars filled with chemicals while children slept inside.

They deliberately chose the one-year anniversary of Hamas’s attack to engage in some of their most visible criminal acts - including one subject who specifically targeted the Bloomfield Township Jewish Federation on October 7, 2024. On the same day, another subject - employed by the University - vandalized the University President’s home.

The alleged criminal targeting occurred for over a year - beginning approximately March 2024 and continuing until April 2025.

@FBIDetroit and our partners pursued a thorough, detailed investigation of this case - and subjects have been charged for their alleged role in conspiracies to transmit threats in interstate and foreign commerce.

[Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו @netanyahu]

The antisemitic dictator Erdoğan – who is committing genocide against the Kurds, supports the Hamas terrorist organization, oppresses his own people and imprisons political rivals – is the last person who can lecture the State of Israel on morality.

The State of Israel and the IDF, the most moral army in the world, will continue to take forceful action against Iran and its proxies, which threaten the Middle East and the entire world.
