🚨 BREAKING: Iran's oil minister has RESIGNED, according to Iranian state media

This comes after Scott Bessent said this is the FIRST TIME they will have NO OIL on the water...

THERE IT IS.

Mohsen Paknejad stepped down after about two years in the job, and President Pezeshkian accepted it

The head of the National Iranian Oil Company, Hamid Bovard, is now acting oil minister

Hours earlier, state media quoted Paknejad saying oil revenues "are still coming and that will continue" — which is PURE BULLSHT

The regime is CRUMBLING under the pressure of Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth, Scott Bessent and Marco Rubio 🔥

Meanwhile, US control over Hormuz keeps increasing.

.@POTUS: "We have a decision that I'll make about Iran. Iran has been decimated, so the only question is it'll either be the easy way or the hard way."

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 NOW: President Trump says he is deciding whether to go the “EASY” or “HARD” way with Iran

"Iran's been decimated."

"The only question is, it'll either be the easy way or the hard way."

"We'll have it the easy way or the hard way."

The clock is ticking.

Notably, this will be the FIRST week Iran has no oil on the water, per Scott Bessent

THEY ARE DONE.

Victor Davis Hanson: Trump Will Solve the Greatest Existential Threat Since the Cold War

For all you people who are worried and have sworn the war is lost, Robert Kagan, the whole left-wing media, what are you going to say when the people rise up?

Victor Davis Hanson argues that mounting internal dissent, military pressure and Iran’s search for an agreement could leave the regime with increasingly few ways out.

He also contends that many Western critics will be reluctant to credit Trump’s strategy if Iran’s government ultimately collapses or is forced into major concessions.

“I'm sure they're all going to say that when the people overthrow this government or this government dissolves, that it had nothing to do with Donald Trump. It had to do with their criticism of Donald Trump,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”

Abdul El-Sayed can never, ever be a U.S. Senator.

Take it from Iman, whose family fled from oppression in Iran to find freedom. He and his family deserve better than someone connected to the Muslim Brotherhood and Al-Qaeda. They deserve someone who stands up to the IRGC, not someone who defends it.

Michigan deserves better.

جشن مهرگان، جشن مهر و روشنایی و یادگار کهن نیاکان ما، با پیروزی فریدون بر ضحاک و چیرگی نیکی بر بدی پیوند خورده است.

در روزگار ضحاک، خِرَد و هنر خوار می‌شود و جادو و نیرنگ ارج می‌یابد، دست دیوان به بدی دراز می‌شود و مغز جوانان، خوراک ماران ضحاک می‌گردد. تصویری از تاریکی و بیدادی که امروز در سیمای پلید جمهوری اسلامی نیز نمایان است.

در شاهنامه، ضحاک کشته نمی‌شود، بلکه در دماوندکوه به بند کشیده می‌شود. اما در روزگار ما، ضحاک زمانه، علی خامنه‌ای، سرانجام به زیر خاک کشیده شد.

این نخستین جشن مهرگان پس از هلاکت اوست که در دی‌ماه، ده‌ها هزار فرزند دلیر ایران را از ما گرفت. امسال، مهرگان را به یاد جاویدنامانی گرامی می‌داریم که در نبرد با ضحاک، جان خود را فدای ایران کردند، و در پاسداشت فرهنگ و هویت ملی ما که در سخت‌ترین روزهای تاریخ ایران، چراغ امید را روشن نگه داشته و نویدبخش پیروزی نور بر تاریکی بوده است.

از همه هم‌میهنان می‌خواهم در این آیین ملی، به دیدار خانواده‌های جاویدنامان میهن بروند و مهر، همدلی و قدردانی ملت را به آنان نشان دهند، خانواده‌هایی که عزیزترین‌های خود را در راه آزادی ایران از دست داده‌اند و یاد فرزندان‌شان، مشعل درخشان فردای ایران است.

Pilot Smit Machchar, speaking with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi from a hospital in the UAE:

"I feel an immense sense of pride. At that moment, I was fighting for my life, but I realized that if I didn't get up and act – after being seriously injured and lying on the floor – no one else would. I've been flying planes for 17 years and have been a captain for the last 11 years, and I know what's happening on the plane, even with my eyes closed. I knew that only one more push was needed to open the door. Despite my injuries, I opened it, and the rest of the crew came in and did their part. I knew I couldn't let the passengers die."

🚨 HOLY CRAP! A U.S. Department of Energy employee has been ARRESTED for allegedly trying to help IRAN-BACKED HOUTHI TERRORISTS

Thank GOD we have a law and order DOJ 🇺🇸

Ashton Ellaboudy, 51, of Richland, Washington, is charged with attempting to provide material support to the Houthis, a designated foreign terrorist organization 🤯

"As alleged, a U.S. government employee traveled overseas and used his specialized expertise in an attempt to aid the Houthis...These allegations are so deeply disturbing that they almost defy imagination."

The FBI says he bought chemicals used for homemade explosives and parts for DRONES, then traveled to Yemen in September 2025 using an old official passport

He allegedly gave a man he thought was a Houthi "Colonel" expert help on communications equipment. That man was really an FBI informant.

If convicted, he faces up to 20 YEARS in prison.

The war against Iran was never about the Strait of Hormuz, although the flow of oil is a truly great accomplishment.  The economic stranglehold on the regime has been enormously successful as well.  The nuclear sites have been crippled if not destroyed, and the enriched/weaponized uranium has been buried deep underground from the bombing campaigns.

But the only way to prevent Iran from ever having a nuclear weapon, devastating ballistic missiles by the thousands, funding and spreading terrorism, is to destroy the regime. There are no good offramps.  I will continue to call for the arming of the Iranian resistance, provide it with training, tech support, and air cover it needs.  We've done this before in other countries.  And because of all that has been done to Iran to this point, especially the economic destruction of the economy, the moment is now -- or at least soon.

BREAKING: President Trump says that based on what he's hearing right now, "yes," the flydubai co-pilot is linked to Iran, but stressed officials are still "working on it right now."

Trump said "it could have been," when asked by @pdoocy if the IRGC placed the co-pilot there or if he was radicalized another way, though Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu previously said it was too early to tell whether the co-pilot was linked to Iran.

.@POTUS: "Iran will very soon be ending — one way or the other."

[Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent @SecScottBessent]

Treasury is dismantling the financial infrastructure that allows Iran and other adversaries to evade sanctions, move illicit funds, and undermine the integrity of the global financial system. Today’s action targeting A7 continues Treasury’s unprecedented efforts to isolate Iran and its financial enablers and sends a clear message that if you facilitate illicit finance for America’s adversaries, you will lose access to the U.S. financial system.

Victor Davis Hanson: Iran Is on the Brink of a Historic Collapse

After 50 years of a regime hostile to the U.S. and Europe, Iran’s military and nuclear complex is in shambles, its economy is broke, and its currency is worthless.

Now, continued pressure could push the regime to the breaking point.

“If it should crack, it will be the most calamitous, major, significant change in world political affairs since the fall of the Berlin Wall.”
