Tommy Tuberville says he has complete faith in President Donald Trump to handle the nuclear codes ... even as Trump threatens devastating military action against Iran.
Jacob caught up with the Alabama senator Monday on Capitol Hill, and TT made it crystal clear he isn't losing any sleep over Trump's rhetoric. In fact, he says he's fully behind it.
Check out the clip ... when Jacob asks whether Trump's threats could have dangerous consequences for the world, Tuberville doesn't back down one bit.
The ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran is seemingly being tested as President Trump on Saturday announced a new round of strikes on Iran -- and the devastation was caught on video.
Check out the insane footage -- The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) posted video of the U.S. carrying out 10 strikes on Iranian military surveillance infrastructure, communication systems, air defense sites, drone storage facilities, and minelayer capabilities.
The commander-in-chief posted a message to Truth Social on Saturday night, saying U.S. aircraft "struck Iranian missile and drone storage location, and costal radar sites for violating the Cease Fire Agreement, AGAIN!”
The latest violation occurred early Saturday morning when Iran launched a drone attack on M/T Kiku, a Panamanian oil tanker passing through the Strait of Hormuz with more than two-million barrels of crude oil.
The "peace deal" has been signed, but it's debatable whether we got the upper hand. And boy, did Janice Dickinson start a plastic surgery war with Kris Jenner! So we gotta ask ...
President Donald Trump got a great 80th birthday present from Iran ... an alleged end to fighting in the region -- and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
POTUS announced the deal between the USA and Iran on Truth Social just moments ago ... congratulating all sides on getting it done.
DJT says he's authorizing the full and unconditional reopening of the Strait of Hormuz ... while also ending the U.S. naval blockade in the region.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib says the government can find money "out of nowhere" to fund wars, and it's even lining some Congress members' pockets -- something she desperately wants to change.
Charlie caught up with the Congresswoman from Michigan Tuesday to talk about the latest retaliatory strikes on Iran ... attacks made without Congressional approval, which didn't exactly shock her, at this point.
Rep. Tlaib told us she can't get her colleagues to care or "move with the same sense of urgency" when it comes to other issues impacting Americans day-to-day.
The United States military is firing back at Iran ... after President Trump said the Iranians shot down a U.S. military helicopter and vowed to retaliate.
U.S. forces began launching "self-defense strikes" against Iran at 5 PM ET Tuesday ... according to an X post from U.S. Central Command.
Waiting for your permission to load the Twitter Tweet.
Central Command says the strikes are being launched at Trump's direction in response to his claim that Iran downed a U.S. Army Apache helicopter Monday as it flew over the Strait of Hormuz.
President Trumpsays the United States is preparing to respond after Iran shot down a U.S. military helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump made the announcement Tuesday in a Truth Social post ... claiming Iranian forces brought down a "highly sophisticated Apache Helicopter" during an overnight patrol mission.
POTUS say two American pilots were aboard the airship ... and, fortunately, both escaped unharmed.
Trump says he's already been briefed by military officials .. and it sounds like retaliation is squarely on the table.
President Donald Trumpkicked off Memorial Day with a fiery online rant targeting political enemies before heading to Arlington National Cemetery to honor America's fallen service members.
Trump started the holiday Monday with a Truth Social post blasting "Dumocrats, RINOS, and Fools" criticizing his administration's ongoing negotiations with Iran.
"Happy Memorial Day to all, including the Dumocrats, who disrespect our Military," Trump wrote, while also praising members of the armed forces and honoring Americans who "made the ultimate sacrifice."
TMZ DC has gone international, with an invite to the Secretary of War's news conference, and Jacobfired off a question that goes right to the psychology of war.
Jacob and Charliecame locked and loaded with questions, the first being what goes through Pete Hegseth's mind and body when he orders the military to drop bombs on people and places -- does he feel an adrenaline rush, power, is he scared? It's really a mindset question about how he approaches war. He didn't really answer, but good on Jacob.
Charlie also had a good question -- check out the video.
President Donald Trump's claim he would've speedrun to victory in the Vietnam War doesn't add up ... according to a congressman and veteran, who says the Iran War proves it.
Our TMZ DC Crew talked to Representative Chris Deluzio on Tuesday after he'd spoken at a press conference on Veterans Affairs issues ... which included concerns the Trump Administration is trying to privatize the V.A.
Given Deluzio's work with veterans and his own service record -- he went to the Naval Academy and served in the Navy from 2006 to 2012 -- we had to ask him about Trump's assertion he "would have won Vietnam very quickly."
Tucker Carlson says he feels partly responsible for President Donald Trump securing a second term in the Oval Office ... and, he's really sorry about it.
The conservative commentator issued a mea cupla during an episode of "The Tucker Carlson Show" released Monday while chatting with his younger brother, Buckley, who worked as a speechwriter for POTUS.
Carlson said he and Buckley are "implicated" in making Trump president again ... and, he says it's not enough to simply say they changed their minds ... because he feels they, and millions of others, are the reason for the state of affairs.
Talk about awkward timing ... Tucker Carlson’s son is bouncing from JD Vance’s office right as President Donald Trump’s attacks on his dad hit a fever pitch.
Buckley Carlson -- son of the conservative lightning rod -- is out as deputy press secretary in the VP’s office … heading for the private sector to launch a political consulting firm, with Politicofirst reporting the move.
Now, this reportedly wasn’t some sudden blow-up. Buckley actually gave notice back in December and stuck around to help smooth the transition.
Congressman Dan Meuser made some solid points in the beef between Donald Trump and Pope Leo ... and the Rep. from Pennsylvania is pretty much Team Trump.
Charlie asked him squarely -- who does he ride with -- and Meuser didn't hold back. On foreign policy, he thinks the Pope had a narrow view of peace when he condemned the war in Iran. He says there's virtue in peace through strength, and worries what would have happened in WWII if everyone followed the Pope's philosophy.
Meuser also felt it was curious the Pope wasn't condemning the atrocities in Iran, where leaders slaughtered tens of thousands of their own people.
Senator Pete Ricketts, by contrast, was crickets when it came to taking a side. He's aware of the beef, but he doesn't want to be forced to choose -- he says it's like having to choose between your mother and your father.
President Trump just got McDonald's delivered to the White House by a "DoorDash Grandma" in a bizarre scene that Trump says "doesn't look staged, does it?"
The Prez answered the door at the White House when a DoorDasher came knocking Monday ... she carried two bags of McDonald's and told Trump he was getting all of his favorite menu items.
Trump greeted the older woman -- who was wearing a "DoorDash Grandma" shirt -- grabbed the bags and started talking to her about her tax return.
"Saturday Night Live" unloaded on Donald Trump last night ... but honestly, nobody was safe.
The show's cold open imagined Trump -- played by James Austin Johnson -- dialing up Tiger Woods ... and immediately regretting it. Instead of talking golf, Tiger drops a bombshell about his DUI and flipping his car, and Trump basically shrugs it off like, "should’ve told them we’re friends." Tiger -- played by Kenan Thompson -- responded that he did and it didn't work! Savage.
Next up ... Melania Trump, where things go from messy to straight-up unhinged. She floats the idea of giving a random speech denying ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Trump’s response? Says it sounds "a little insane."
And last but not least -- Pete Hegseth jumps into the mix -- portrayed as a war-hungry loose cannon giving wild updates about Iran, with jokes suggesting world leaders might actually prefer bombs over more U.S. negotiations.
President Trump took a break from the conflict in Iran to enjoy some UFC battles here at home Saturday night -- and, as usual, 47 made a grand entrance inside the arena.
The Commander in Chief walked out of a tunnel with UFC boss Dana White to massive applause from the crowd at UFC 327 in Miami's Kaseya Center.
