Secretary of State Marco Rubio is visiting India while opening the latest U.S. Embassy New Delhi. During remarks before a formal dinner, Secretary Rubio noted there may be information coming later today on the conflict with Iran.
Simultaneous to this, President Trump is reported to be in discussions with all of the Arab state partners.

Secretary Rubio at the ribbon cutting in New Delhi is below.
The deal with Iran will be broken before the end of the month which they will deny of course! It’s called a diplomate merry go round! Agreement, Iran breaks agreement, restart negotiations, agree to new agreement, break new agreement, restart negotiations rinse repeat!!!
Not with sheriff # 47.
Gracias Dios
Hopefully not, and if they do there’ll be Hell To Pay with 47 . .
He better make it quick.
The Mullahs are not in charge anymore. They just don’t know it yet …
47 years is a long time to become used to something. Too bad for them it’s gone.
We’ve heard this bullshit before
If the deal doesn’t include verified removal of all enriched uranium, AND the ability for inspectors to visit Iran’s facilities that work with uranium frequently to ensure they are not spinning up those centrifuges again — then it’s a bad deal.
Obviously the deal had better include no toll unimpeded transit of the Hormuz Strait, and the termination of Iran’s support for the likes of Hamas and Hezbollah as well.
I guess we’ll find out 🙂
Iran needs to open up the Strait of Hormuz.
Try being positive for once. There is power in Positive thinking. Doom and Gloom only causes you depression.
Some are speculating that we’re going to bomb Iran because they threatened Ivankas life. I dunno… it doesn’t sound like Trump.
Is “Some” anything like “Unknown sources”?
CNN, MSNOW, Bloomberg, Yahoo and on and on.
Just in case you didn’t know Bloomberg is FAKE NEWS! 😎
Bloomberg is Ultra-Fake News!
I heard it on a podcast.
14:20 into the video:
Tom Luongo describes PDJT’s primary triumphs here predicting the RINOs would be seriously upset:
by they you mean the CIA. i do not believe that story any more than i believe the attempts on PT’s life were iranian, as the deep state kept trying to flog that idiotic story.
the enemy is INSIDE THE GATES.
I saw something about that Ivanka thing on Instagram- obvi that’s not the best source for news. When I post things I’ve seen on social I let the Treepers know where it’s been circulating.
“BREAKING: Trump and Iran are reportedly VERY close to a deal ending the war, and are now working out “wording” on certain points, a US negotiator told Axios“
It amazes me that some people apparently believe that when the Trump White House wants to leak something to the media that is genuinely true, the first place they turn is Axios. (???)
“Trump is a puppet of Israel”.
Guess not.
Next up, CUBA.
Let’s wait on Cuba until after the November elections. Instead focus on lowering oil and gas prices, lowering inflation and interest rates like the deal was!
You can’t make a deal with terrorists…
There’s no getting past that fact.
The terrorists are those with power that don’t accept Christ is King.
100% Their heritage is from the father of lies. How could things be any other way?
There is plenty of them in the West Asia…one of them even do not recognize Jesus Christ as the Prophet…mrs.sunshine….
Thomas Jefferson to the Barbary pirates. “Why do you attack our ships and enslave our sailors?” “Because you are infidels.” Islam understands one thing and that is overpowering strength.
” President Madison’s words on this occasion could scarcely be bettered: “It is a settled policy of America, that as peace is better than war, war is better than tribute. The United States, while they wish for war with no nation, will buy peace with none.” (The expression “the United States is” did not come into usage until after Gettysburg.) ”

What Buddhists have the power to kill under color of law?
Qualifying word “power”. Kings and government officials, not religious leaders, hold the color of law that enables lawful killing whether it is morally justified or not.
Your original comment didn’t specify any religion.

Nor should you try.
Iran is completely, thoroughly, profoundly untrustworthy. (Unfortunately the other Arab countries are too, but we wont talk about that).
reggie:
You are absolutely correct. There are no ‘good] arab states, since they are all Islamic. There are only varying degrees of ‘bad’, with Iran on the bottom, Qatar somewhere in the middle and perhaps the Saudis on the high side. But they are ALL untrustworthy and will never, NEVER have America’s interests at heart. Frankly, once Iran is taken care of, I would be happy if our President just distanced ourselves from all of them. We don’t need the ME for energy… so to hell with them.
Hand the M.E. ball off to the Euros, seeing as Islamists have infested I mean migrated there.
We — President Trump/USA — are helping nations of the world to learn to work, play, and trade peacefully together with respect and without criminal/terrorist behaviors.
“Goodness” belongs to a Constitutional Republic, and to nations with their own values that enable their citizens to live welk and prosper.
Today, or soon, Iran. The hardest knot later – soviet western Europe.
Simultaneously, cleaning up same behaviors within the USA.
I believe the Koran’s teachings suggest that lying to achieve a ‘win’ is an honorably accepted accomplishment.
One of the verses that the concept of Taqiyya is taken from…
Qur’an 3:28: “Let not the believers take unbelievers as allies instead of believers—unless you seek to protect yourselves from them (tattaqū minhum tuqāt).”
Of course, such things can be twisted like a pretzel to justify all manner of lies…
Iran is very much Muslim, but not Arab. They are Persian. Not the same.
I have brokered/bartered/sold vehicles to be shipped overseas..Iranians and Arabs are the hardest people to put a deal together. Chinese second. Give me a Russian any day to put a deal together. Never ever trust an Iranian, ever.
but we do, fairly regularly.
We even invited those beauty to WH…one of them..Syrian president..hmm…

“You can’t make a deal with terrorists…”
True. But what you can do is negotiate a lasting peace with the people of a nation who are destined to take back control of their nation, defeating the terrorists who were once in charge. Help give the people a clearer picture of what the future holds for them. They will be able to continue their fight for freedom with renewed enthusiasm as to what their future can be. Please be careful, however, to not lead them on with false hope.
The terrorists are still in charge and will still be if a deal is made.
The woman who cuts my hair is from Iran and is very pro-Trump. She is in touch with family in Iran. She said the regime is still in charge and still murdering people.
She said the people are losing hope and things will be worse for them if the President makes a deal with the regime because they can’t fight back. They just get slaughtered.
They believed the President was going to get rid of the Mullahs when he said help was on the way and then started bombing. Now they are very worried.
That’s the feeling inside Iran now.
I share their fears.
Sometimes a people’s have to help themselves. There is so much that outside forces can do .. akin to civil wars in nations, they need to survive to live another day, and take up the mantle whilst they keep on thinking free. Take no wooden nickels!
Rubio is our king. King of Memes.
Just one opinion…
All’s i know Is President Trump, better get these Gas prices down and end this thing, or We aren’t gonna have a very good next 2 years. this I can assure you.
unless you want to pump extra ethanol into your engine and ruin it, the 91 grade is now 5.59/gallon here. and we chose to stay home for memorial day.
Here in northern rural Ohio we have gas at $3.89 to $4.19 or so!
The prices actually came down this weekend!
Here in SE Arizona the prices are about $4.59/gal. Not going anywhere for Memorial Day. Being a veteran anyway, I will reflect on those who paid the ultimate price for our freedom and pray for all veterans.
Most of the southeast is in the 3.7 to 4.1 range.
https://www.gasbuddy.com/gaspricemap?lat=36.21454292952882&lng=-86.8805541712138&z=6
In Michigan, as well, gas is down right around $4.05 – $4.30, lower than before the holiday weekend.
Northeast Ohio yesterday I paid around $4.79/gal.
But the rainy weather and cold winds are the reason we are staying home for Memorial Day.
News flash — premium gas also usually has 10% ethanol in it 🙂
news flash: thats why you buy the smallest amount you can, as mentioned, short of non-eth gas, which is difficult to find.
It’s 6.59 at Shell for 91. Diesel is $7.69. San Diego
Drives me nuts that President Trump is taking all of these bulls by the horns, without a salary. And people want to complain about gas prices. I’ll do my small part by living with higher gas prices. It’s the least I can do. Everything comes with a cost. “Gas is too high…But at least I’m getting that new $1500. I-phone next week! /smh
Yep. Don’t let the price of gasoline cloud your judgement.
This is far better than lining up on even or odd days for your ten gallon allotment before the station ran out. Few remember those times. I was there.
Wow, I remember those times. Funny how those days slipped into the memory hole!
Yep and all I keep hearing is how easy we boomers had it.
Boomers were bamboozled a series of times with huge economic and social upheavals due to the zealots of socialism Marxist destruction, wars unbalanced budgets, deficit spending … each generation has its stupid stuff, the sixties -seventies were politically violent and fraught with bad policy. Hmmm what’s changed, “they” still lie and tyranny knocks at the door.
The news ought to be the bombing has resumed.
The odds are the next real news will be.
I will believe it when I see it. And even then, given the total dishonest nature of the Iranian Regime, I won’t believe it.
Two traits I despise, A liar and a thief! Arabs condone both!
I think the ultimate solution will involve the Arab states in a mutual agreement with Israel to prevent Iran from resuming aggression in the region.
Its their back yard and they have the money. We have the equipment to sell them.
i think the epstein princes of the arab states know that if they explicitly align with israel again, some of them will probably lose their heads.
Is there a downside to that? /sarc. 🙃
no sarc, not really, no. 😉
but it means they are walking a very thin line and are not going to just wave the stars and stripes and star of david.
start in the UAE…for sure…..
almost Biblical.
Iran shutdown of airspace
Iran has issued restrictions closing western airspace (via NOTAM) until May 25, amid ongoing tensions and speculation of potential U.S. strikes. This is affecting flights, with rerouting and limited operations at some airports.
I saw a report saying Iran wants reparations begging to the UN
Then there is this
https://x.com/nicksortor/status/2058228899432054983
The media is chock full of completely unsubstantiated BS regarding what is being “demanded” by Iran 🙂
i def do know it, the reparations thing total bunk looking
A shot ear, bleeding while a citizen was killed close by with others injured…that event triggered a more active President toward his spiritual senses. Two further attempts at his life added to this sense that his god has spared him for reasons to be unfolded…by what matter I and others really don’t know. However, his public pronouncements of faith have been more common ever since.
It could be this period in his spiritual life that has President Trump so committed to making a deal with Iran. Many think making a deal with the present power leaders of Iran is like making a deal with the Devil…bound to fail and bring more misery to many!
I happen to agree and want our military, along with the Israelis, to finish the job of neutering the Iranian theocratic regime.
We’ll see if there’s a deal. And then we’ll see if it’s worth the paper on which it’s written. Frankly, I am not optimistic.
“US and Iranian positions have shown some narrowing but remain far apart on core issues, particularly Iran’s nuclear program, the Strait of Hormuz, sanctions, and reparations. The current Pakistan-mediated talks (as of May 23, 2026) focus on a limited memorandum of understanding (MOU) to formally end hostilities and open a 30-day window for deeper negotiations, rather than resolving everything immediately.”
Again? Let’s just keep doing this crap until PJDT is ut of Office.
30 Days? “deeper negotiations”? I’m just a simple retired old lady and I can see this is no deal!
I’m starting to wonder who advised President Trump to start the bombing and assured him it would be done in 4-6 weeks. Or was it 6-8 weeks? I forget. It was a long time ago. Maybe it was 6-8 months.
Can you imagine Sleepy Joe negotiating with a cadre of Middle Eastern leaders on a Sunday afternoon?
Only if they were on The beach playing Beach Blanket Bingo!
while naping!
Is that a short way of napping? Or is that when one gets up to “p”.?
Somebody walked up to where he was napping and took a p.
I have a feeling that this deal is not going to work out well for the United States.
Well, that’s a sh*t assignment on Memorial Day Weekend.
It seems a fool’s errand or worse to sign a ‘deal’ with these fanatical monsters – Trump must know that. There must be some issue(s) potentially worse than trying to deal with them.
You are assuming that the Axios report is true.
Sorry, I look at that image of our SOS in a dinner jacket and all I can think of is “the name’s Rubio, Marco Rubio…….” He does it better than Sean Connery! 🙂
Marco Rubio, 007
That was posted this morning
AWESOME!!! 🙂
I’m amazed at the noise coming from the doomscrollers saying:
1. President Trump is getting completely fooled by the Muslims, and
2. But, but…gas prices!!
Good grief people! Have a little faith in President Trump. He is, after all, our greatest president since Washington.
It’s not President Trump I’m losing faith in it’s his decision makers and Democrats . It wouldn’t surprise me if the Dems are paying the mullahs off, in all honesty, just to make sure our President doesn’t succeed. The gas prices are just being screamed about 24/7 by these idiots, wanting to overtake Congress once again.
Right where I’m at too, Katy.
“Either way, Trump is getting that uranium.”….
I believe this is truly what’s going on. This… ASSWIPE OBUMMER.
The only progress so far is enrichment.
Can Iran build enough intercontinental missiles & enrich enough uranium to 90% to wiped out Israel and the USA?
Would Iran discover mutually assured destruction?
I read Iran’s regular army was fighting the fanatical religious leaders and their secret police.
And, what do Americans complain about? The high price of gasoline.
People are buying into the Gas Price pearl Clutching. Anything to make our President not succeed. He’s battling 2 fronts.
To all of America complaining about gas prices today, welcome to California before the war!
Summer prices haven’t even kicked in yet.
Far more than 2, and most people do nothing but complain (from their recliners).
the trump campaign spent a significant amount of time on the price of gas.
because it does, in fact, matter to the serfs. it is not a good look to be on camera saying you don’t think about americans financial situation at all.
I can assure you that Iran is not concerned about mutually assured destruction.
President Trump told the Iranian people he was coming to help them, he doesn’t break his word. I doubt the regime will be allowed loopholes like Saddam was gifted, by a President desperate to declare a premature victory. If there’s a peace deal then it will be on US terms, one of which is no retaliation against the political opposition.
My guess is that the opposition will use this shield to mobilise and possibly overthrow the regime, or the regime will not survive the humiliation of agreeing to terms that directly contradict the narrative of its ‘victory’, which will be interpreted by its rivals, correctly, as weakness. Either way you cut it the regime will now be living on borrowed time.
This is probably why Team Trump have shifted their geo-strategic attention to Cuba because they knew the Iran operation was coming to a successful conclusion. Cuba will also realise this and might want to give up their current leadership. Once again the DS will be left scrabbling for crumbs to throw at the President, so probably get ready for another helping of the stale Epstein cake.
From your lips to God’s ears.
I am in the Oval Office at the White House where we just had a very good call with President Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, of The United Arab Emirates, Emir Tamim bin Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, and Minister Ali al-Thawadi, of Qatar, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir Ahmed Shah, of Pakistan, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, of Türkiye, President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, of Egypt, King Abdullah II, of Jordan, and King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, of Bahrain, concerning the Islamic Republic of Iran, and all things related to a Memorandum of Understanding pertaining to PEACE.
An Agreement has been largely negotiated, subject to finalization between the United States of America, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the various other Countries, as listed.
Separately, I had a call with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu, of Israel, which, likewise, went very well. Final aspects and details of the Deal are currently being discussed, and will be announced shortly. In addition to many other elements of the Agreement, the Strait of Hormuz will be opened.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Very smart move! President Trump read the room and looked at his cards along with the calendar. The elections in November are not that far off. Put the Iranian nuclear issue on ice until the dust settles and revisit the issue in January. Get oil and gas prices down big league along with inflation and interest rates. Focus on taking care of the United States now! Israel can wait for a few more months. 😎
You’re reading things into it that aren’t there…better to wait for the full, final details.
BINGO
Saudi Arabia
UAE
Qatar
Pakistan
Turkey
Egypt
Jordan
Bahrain
Israel
All the above
countries are on the BOARD OF PEACE.
Imho, these are the players in the say-so on negotiating the Strait of Hormuz.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Board_of_Peace
Rubio’s trip was to Sweden (who declined membership invitation) and India (who is an observant but not a member).
I’m just thinking out loud especially regarding India.
The piece missing is Oman?
New Industry in Iran….. wait for it ….
stained glass with hardware.
Pentagon pizza watch….
The reality is somewhere between this, (from CTH):
“Trump and Iran are reportedly VERY close to a deal ending the war… Some reports even say it’s a done deal…”
and this, (from Zero Hedge):
“Trump says he’s a “solid 50/50” whether he would be able to make a “good” deal or else “blow them to kingdom come”.”
My money’s on blow them to kingdom come!

Reading within the lines, everyone on the Board of Peace is in unanimous agreement with their Memorandum. Now Iran gets to surrender or see their former leader. The separate call with Bibi is interesting. Might be a timing thing so everyone is ready and coordinated. It’s deficate or evacuate the commode time.
The key is keeping #47 at all cost.
Patiently waiting
“Knowledge Is Power,” and “The Enemy Is Listening.” Rubio is going to exactly follow the agreed-upon plan and release, as the case may be, both truth and maybe deception in the exact time and manner chosen. If you feel confused, you are meant to be. C’est la guerre.
Regardless of what the final details of the MOU are, it’s a guarantee that all those with TDS and/or are neocons will do their utmost worst to paint it as a humiliating defeat. Such language is already pretty prevalent in the blue circuits.
The neocons aren’t far behind…
The NeoCons and the Mullahs are threatened by Trump.
It’s so very nice to have a President that dedicates himself to the country and the people…
the nature of what they are working on is a lot more relevant to whether it benefits me, than the quantity of hours spent.
It’s always revealing the way that some people have absolutely no appreciate for what it takes to get things done and are only interested in themselves…me, me, me.
What if the IRGC are all in their bunkers, the agreement is with the Gulf Board of Peace and the *new* Iranian government, and the “deal” includes permanently sealing the IRGC and their 72 goats in their bunkers?
THAT Would be TOO DELICIOUS
( NOT for the Goats Tho ! )
**IF** true, would expect things to get hot as “Iranian control” of the Strait has been a red line.
(don’t like the nuclear delay with release of any funds either – but at least it’s semi-tolerable)
The twit author is quoting Fars News. I would not trust that source.
I don’t – hence the “**IF** true” intro 🙂 The author of the post itself shows definite liberal tendencies and a Ukraine gunho attitude.
I see that spin to win wheel moving. Where will it stop? deal, no deal??
???
More at daily POTUS thread. Looks like 2 down.
Outside the White House makes it sound like it was very close. Others sources are saying NEAR the White House or were HEARD at the White House.
One word changes the news.
In some places like Memphis or Tacoma this would be a yawn story sadly.
FNC live is talking about it now, but downplaying.
Trusting the Iranians to keep any deal is the first mistake I’ve seen Trump make.
Who said he trusts them? You don’t have to trust someone to establish an MOU…as long as you can verify.
Great!
This is very interesting article from Chabad Orthodox Jews who are a part of President Trump’s family.
Their Rabbis Are “Mullahs””Along with the terms rav and hakham, popular among many Sephardim, Persian Jews often referred to their rabbis as mulla, Arabic (and Persian) for “master.””
R. Mordechai (1850 – 1936), known as Mullah Murad, was a leader of Mashhadi Jews in Iran, India, and Jerusalem.

Rubio looks very dapper.
JMO.
The new IRAN plan, is a goulash cooked up in some mid-eastern kitchen with the following cooks involved:
“call with President Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, of The United Arab Emirates, Emir Tamim bin Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, and Minister Ali al-Thawadi, of Qatar, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir Ahmed Shah, of Pakistan, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, of Türkiye, President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, of Egypt, King Abdullah II, of Jordan, and King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, of Bahrain,,”
This has to be a Babylon Bee type joke. It has all of the characteristics:
The most powerful nation on earth has expended its blood and treasure and then kow-tows to a cabal of “muslims, etc.” for control of the outcome? No way, jose!
—————————————————————-
Not only no, but hell no, do we think this is what should be done and agreed to.
Mr. President ……….. to quote Nance Reagan, “Just say no” and stay with your “Iran agrees to an immediate unconditional surrender” or finish the job of destroying the danger as you have so accurately defined.
God bless and protect you, your family, your supporters and the USA.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
You already said that in the daily and yet don’t know diddly squat about how the details of the actual discussions with Iran that took place or have the actual parameters of the POTENTIAL deal is as the President hasn’t stated them – nor has he made a final decision regarding whatever it is, which has been said he’ll make sometime tomorrow. All we have is what the Iranian news agency has said – an organization that has put out repeated propaganda.
The fact he would talk to the leaders of the countries in the region which are effected by it and get their buy-in also comes as no surprise, as they are the ones that have to live with the immediate consequences – be it a MOA and continued talks or the re-initiation of direct hostilities.
The least you could do is actually wait until the decision is made and the details of it are released before getting in a tizzy. JMO.
Harrison,
Thanks for your comment.
I respect your ability to post your JMO.
President Trump had a great rally in NY.
He made some endorsements.
Hope you were able to attend.
Have a great MAGA DAY/!
