*I believe Iran, because let’s face it, the terrorist state is more credible than Trump.*
“Iran immediately shut down President Donald Trump’s claim that it had “agreed to everything” the United States demanded, including handing over its enriched uranium.”
“Instead, Iran’s foreign ministry said on Friday afternoon that its uranium was not going anywhere.”
“The Iranian official said the Islamic Republic is seeking “compensation for war damages” and the lifting of sanctions, but did not specify the extent of either.”
“Trump also claimed that Iran agreed to stop backing designated terror groups like Hezbollah and Hamas.”
“Reuters added that “serious negotiations are required to overcome differences.”
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Trump made a series of sweeping claims on these topics on Friday, both on social media and in phone calls with reporters.”
“For example, he wrote on Truth Social that “The U.S.A. will get all Nuclear ‘Dust,’ created by our great B2 Bombers – No money will exchange hands in any way, shape, or form.”
“Nuclear dust” is Trump’s preferred terminology for the nuclear material held at Iranian sites that were bombed last summer.”
“The president also indicated during his media calls that Iran had committed to cease uranium enrichment. Elsewhere on social media, he wrote that Iran was “removing all sea mines” and that it had “agreed to never close the Strait of Hormuz again.”
“The president provided no corroborating evidence for any of those claims and many of them were disputed by Iranian sources.”
“Ominously, Iran’s Fars news agency, closely linked with the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), also made a highly unusual intervention — in effect reprimanding Araghchi for his tweet about the reopening of the Strait.”
“Fars, describing the foreign minister’s message as “unexpected,” went on to complain that Iranian society had been “plunged into an atmosphere of confusion.”
“The news agency took aim at “the absolute and strange silence of the Supreme National Security Council and the negotiating team” about what was going on. ”
“In a separate tweet, Fars quoted an unnamed foreign ministry spokesperson as saying that the “enemy” — the U.S. — had “repeatedly made contradictory statements within a single day, aimed at media hype.”
I know this is the daily beast but Trump legit does not know how to shut up and can’t help himself which makes him probably the absolute worst president in terms of international diplomacy in our history

I see only two plausible solutions for this war:
1. Nuclear war. An even bigger world disaster, I hope someone invokes the 25th if he orders a nuclear strike.
2. Trump is humiliated by Iran, but will claim victory anyway. MAGA will eat this shit and claim it’s chocolate mousse.
Regardless, gas prices are not coming down, it’s sowing season and fertilizer prices are through the roof, which will probably translate to lower yields in the Fall and higher food prices. CEOs will continue to fire people “because AI”.
The only silver lining is a huge blue wave in November, and hopefully the Democrats will stop pussy-footing and get busy.

Trump claiming victory right before the stock market closes for the week. Funny how that timing works.

Yeah, but if the MAGAs believe it hard enough, then maybe he’ll stop killing people and wrecking economies.

It’s Friday. He always ends Friday with “good news” lies to manipulate the market. Monday we’ll see his lie exposed (well, Iran already did that) or some move will happen to shake up the markets again.

so is he making shit up or is he being lied to or is he being told but he’s incapable of comprehension so he fills in the blanks. probably irrelevant distinction at this point

It’s a sad and sorry state of affairs that I believe the reports from Iran versus what our government/ president says. Unless it’s a leaked report from someone in our government, there is zero reason to put any stock in what we’re hearing.

I will never forgive the people who voted for this bloated orange idiot. He’s exhausting, and his utter incompetence and stupidity is destroying literal decades of soft and hard power the United States built after WW2.

Its just a grift. He and others are making massive cash off manipulating the markets. Then itll fall apart this weekend with lots of threats and then work on deal to fix it next week and do it all over again. Also, continues to distract from epstein.

Starting a war and then trying to brag about reaching a ceasefire deal reminds me of the Simpsons:

I’m so fucking sick and tired of the broadcast national news programs treating his tweets as newsworthy fact. Over the last 7 weeks they’ve reported every time he says there’s a deal, or it’s close, based on nothing but some text the president sent. Just tonight on NBC they reported that Hormuz is wide open and that we are close to a deal. Less than an hour later I’m seeing reports that boats aren’t using the strait and that Iran says there is no talk of a deal. It’s maddening.

“Iran immediately shut down President Donald Trump’s claim that it had “agreed to everything” the United States demanded, including handing over its enriched uranium.”
“Instead, Iran’s foreign ministry said on Friday afternoon that its uranium was not going anywhere.”
“Iran’s enriched uranium is not going to be transferred anywhere; transferring uranium to the United States has not been an option,” Iran’s foreign ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei told Iranian state broadcaster IRIB, according to [CNN](https://www.cnn.com/2026/04/17/world/live-news/iran-war-trump-lebanon-israel-ceasefire).”
“Iran’s enriched uranium is sacred to us like the soil of Iran,” Baghaei added.”
“Officials in Tehran also disputed Trump’s suggestion that Iran had agreed to an “unlimited” suspension of its nuclear program, reports [The Telegraph](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2026/04/17/iran-war-latest-news-trump-israel-lebanon-ceasefire/).”
“That puts messaging from Tehran and Washington in direct contradiction with each other yet again.”
“Trump said the uranium would be brought back to the United States.”
“Our people, together with the Iranians, are going to work together to go get it,” he told CBS News. “And then we’ll take it to the United States.”
“Trump’s seemingly premature victory lap on Friday afternoon, via a phone interview with [CBS News](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-says-iranians-have-agreed-to-everything-including-removal-of-enriched-uranium/) and other media outlets, was published just before markets closed for the weekend.”
“The Iranian official said the Islamic Republic is seeking “compensation for war damages” and the lifting of sanctions, but did not specify the extent of either.”
“Trump also claimed that Iran agreed to stop backing designated terror groups like Hezbollah and Hamas.”
“[[Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/significant-differences-remain-between-iran-us-including-nuclear-issues-senior-2026-04-17/) reported on Friday afternoon that “significant differences” still separate Tehran and Washington. An Iranian official told the wire service that “no agreement has been reached on the details of the nuclear issues.”.”
“Reuters added that “serious negotiations are required to overcome differences.”
