I'm hearing they want to talk badly. It's possible. Depends on what terms, possible, only possible. You know, we sort of don't have to speak anymore, you know, if you really think about it, but it's possible.

On September 20, 2025, at around 7 a.m., dozens of children ran through the Simon Pele neighborhood in northern Port-au-Prince. They played among the colorful alleyways controlled for years by the gang of the same name waiting for Albert Steevenson, alias Djouma, to hand out toys as part of his birthday celebration. But quadcopter drones from an official operation, armed with explosives, were also flying through the alleyways with a clear objective: to kill the elusive Haitian gang leader.

Huge fireballs and thick plumes of smoke rose over Tehran after joint United States-Israeli air strikes hit fuel depots in the Iranian capital. Iran's oil distribution company said four of its employees were killed in the blitz, as a dark haze hung over the city on Sunday and the smell of burning oil lingered in the air.

Well, he's not Winston Churchill, let me put it that way. Trump suggested that the British government should cooperate more closely with American military operations, expressing surprise at the Prime Minister's response in the initial days of the conflict.

I think passage of a war powers resolution right now [is a] terrible, dangerous idea. It would empower our enemies, it would kneecap our own forces and it would take the ability of the US military and the commander-in-chief away from completing this critical mission to keep everybody safe.

Sure, Iran will still be able to shoot some missiles and still be to launch one-way attack drones at civilian targets, and their proxies will attempt to attack our embassies, bases and soft targets. They are terrorists, after all. And they need to target civilians because they can't fight toe-to-toe. But we will find them, and we will kill them.

This is war, and we're taking out the threat. And if you're part of the threat, then you're a target. What we call not all the arrows, but going after the archers. They've declared war on us, but we haven't. We're simply fighting the threat that's been at our door for 47 years.

Tapper dialed. Trump answered. The result was a headline: The big one is coming. That's bombshell news both figuratively and perhaps literally. That same day, Jonathan Karl reported that President Donald Trump revealed to him that potential Iranian successors had been killed in the strikes. Bret Baier went on air and told viewers he had just spoken with the president, who updated the number of Iranian leaders taken out from 48 to 49 and walked through the strategic outlook.

Three U.S. fighter jets, F-15E Strike Eagles involved in the operation against Iran, were shot down mistakenly by Kuwait's air defenses in "an apparent friendly fire incident," the U.S. military's Central Command said. All six crew members "ejected safely," were recovered and were in stable condition, Centcom said.

To be clear ... this is not a single overnight operation. The military objectives CENTCOM and the Joint Force have been tasked with will take some time to achieve, and in some cases will be difficult and gritty work.

Sadly, there will likely be more before it ends. We'll do everything possible where that won't be the case, but America will avenge their deaths and deliver the most punishing blow to the terrorists who have waged war against, basically, civilization.

Israel has reportedly focused on decapitation strikes and military targets, while the United States has focused mostly on military targets. ISW also cited reports that the commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, Iran's defense minister, intelligence chief, and defense council secretary were killed.

Pakistan's security forces have carried out raids in the country's southwest, killing at least 41 armed fighters, whom the country's military linked to regional rival and neighbour India. The military said in a statement on Friday that the deadly encounters took place in the province of Balochistan, which shares a long border with Afghanistan and has long been a base for separatist groups seeking independence from Pakistan's central government in Islamabad.

"We've got operators out there doing this right now, so whatever we were to decide to release, we would have to be very responsible about, so we're reviewing that right now," he said Saturday during an appearance at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in California.
