Trump to Fox: “My question is, if and when do I blow the entire nation up? They better behave.”
He’s in “deciding mode.” Options on the table: wipe Iran out, let them rot economically, or make a deal. “Very big things” coming in the not-so-distant future.
Open to meeting Iranian President Pezeshkian at UNGA this week. Says some officials are “hiding like rats.”
According to law enforcement scanner traffic, shots have reportedly been fired near the end of a runway at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, Nevada, with the suspected shooter reportedly firing at "air units".
In a major military blow, IRIB says China has cut off satellite imagery the Islamic Republic relied on to track U.S. forces, assess strike damage and plan attacks.
That imagery is military intelligence. It can reveal aircraft, air defence systems, troop movements and changes at military bases.
After an attack, fresh images help commanders determine what was hit, what survived and whether another strike is needed. Losing that feed leaves the Islamic Republic with weaker targeting and less visibility over the battlefield.
The stakes are already clear. In May, the United States sanctioned three Chinese companies for providing satellite imagery that helped the Islamic Republic target U.S. forces. U.S. officials later linked Chinese imagery to the July 17 attack on Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan, which killed three American troops.
IRIB’s own broadcast says China’s message was blunt: resolve your problem with the Americans first. China appears unwilling to endanger its relationship with the United States to preserve the Islamic Republic’s wartime capabilities.
This could become far more dangerous for the regime than the loss of one intelligence feed. China is the Islamic Republic’s most important strategic partner, its main economic lifeline and the buyer of roughly 80 to 90 percent of Iran’s seaborne crude.
The regime depends on Chinese intelligence, technology, trade, payments and diplomatic protection. China can replace Iranian oil. The Islamic Republic cannot replace China.
Russia is sending a similar warning. It says its relationship with Iran is a strategic partnership, not a military alliance, and that Russian weapons are needed for Russia’s own war first.
The Islamic Republic spent years claiming that China and Russia had broken its isolation. It is now learning that neither country will risk its own interests to rescue the regime.
Losing Chinese satellite intelligence would leave the Islamic Republic increasingly blind against U.S. forces. A wider collapse in Chinese support would threaten its targeting capabilities, military rebuilding, oil revenue and access to foreign currency at the same time.
The regime is losing its battlefield eyes while its economic lifeline weakens. For a system already under military and financial pressure, a serious rupture with China could be catastrophic.
A US Marine Corp member (III MEF) is being held in custody in Okinawa on the suspicion of robbery and murder. The US embassy in Japan is communicating and cooperating with the government of Japan.
BREAKING: The USS Theodore Roosevelt and the USS Makin Island left San Diego around 28th September toward an ongoing US and Israeli war with Iran that opened on 28th February. US officials say the move adds about 9k to 10k sailors and Marines and can put three carriers near Iran by late October or November. The Wall Street Journal reported that President Trump rejected a seven-day Hormuz deal and expects bombing after the midterms. Axios says an unannounced Camp David meeting on 2nd October left things decided or deeply discussed. No sourcing orders US troops into Iran. Iran says a renewed large-scale campaign would draw a wider reply.
NEW!! US service member in custody following the death of a Japanese national in Okinawa, the U.S. Embassy in Japan says.
The embassy says it is cooperating with local authorities as the investigation continues.
Ground invasion, supported by sabotage and internal revolt, is highly likely to happen within the next 6 months. The period of 14-29 November 2026 is to watch out for, in particular.
And this is from me, who has never been wrong on Iran in the last 3 years.
🇹🇭🇺🇸 AWW PHUKET! The U.S. Navy is docking in Thailand again!
Not even a month after the land-starved seamen, seawomen, and sea they/thems arrived from the busted carrier USS Abraham Lincoln… here comes the USS George H.W. Bush, at sea for the last 186 days.
They'd better call in the reinforcements… It’s about to get rowdy!

🚨 HE’S HOME: It’s 11:13 pm here in DC, and President Trump has just arrived at the White House, closing out the first three days of his midterm BLITZ
No rallies on the schedule Sunday, so ideally POTUS will take a little breather.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend, patriots! 🇺🇸
The U.S. Coast Guard located a debris field off Nantucket on Saturday from a missing medical transport Gulfstream that lost contact while en route from Bermuda to Boston, with six people aboard, four Canadian and two Bermudian, the agency said.
🚨🇺🇸 The gloves are officially off as Trump kicks off his midterm rally tour
"In the Supreme Court, we won everything, but they continue to fight for men to play in women's sports.
So, I don't get it, but I like that they continue to fight because as long as they do, they can't win elections.
They're a bunch of dumb son of a bitches."
If he's this prickly this early on, what is he going to be saying by the end of the month? 🤣

Ohio GOP gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy brings child up on stage after seeing his sign that read his dad is deployed in the U.S. military.
.@POTUS: "I take an aspirin a day. I don't know if it works, but psychologically, I need it. It thins the hell out of your blood, I guess. I don't know if it works or not, but I've been doing it for a long time — and here I am." 🤣
